    Happy Saturday to all,

    Creating a slim line Valentine today using Kat Scrappiness dies. This is a clean and simple card for when you have to make a card and do not want to ink.

    I cut a standard 3.5 x8.5 inch base in black card stock. Next I die cut a layer using the Kat Scrappiness “Zig Zag” slim line die in a salmon card stock. Finally I cut a white layer to size leaving only a zig zag boarder.

    Now for the focal images, I die cut hearts in three colors using Kat Scrappiness “Embossed Edged Heart” Die. I found that five rows of two fit nicely onto the white layer.  For the sentiment I die cut the words love and you using the Kat Scrappiness “I Love You” shadow die Set. I cut the words twice, once in black and once in salmon. I stacked them using an offset to create a shadow behind the sentiment. I added a few sequins and the card is complete.

    Hi Crafty Friends,
    I have a fun ESKIMO card for you today featuring tons of amazing Kat Scrappiness goodies! I just love the Kat Scrappiness Condensed Uppercase Alphabet dies! You can make so many words and they look great on a slimline! I used the Kat Scrappiness Ornament Shaker Dies to create the “vowels” in Eskimo. The papers from the Kat Scrappiness Sugar Plum Fairy Slimline Paper Pad are PERFECT for all winter cards.

    Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
    Q: Have you ever met an Eskimo or have Eskimo heritage in your bloodline?
    A: Me? No, but I do have a friend that lives in Alaska, maybe when COVID is over I will go visit!

    Happy New Year – hope everyone’s first week of 2021 has been good.  A couple of announcements before I get to my card today.  First, the Hello 2021 sale is still going on thru January 8th.  Use code BYE2020 to get 15% off Christmas and Hanukkah products.

    Also, there is a new release happening this weekend.  Here is a sneak peek at a couple of the new products.

     

    For my card today, I used one of my favorite valentine products released last year – Floral Heart die.

    I die cut the floral heart three times and layered them to give dimension to the card.  I die cut my striped piece of patterned paper with the largest Stitched Scalloped Rectangle die.  I tied a bow using gold and white twine, adhered the panel to my card base, and added the floral heart.  I embossed my sentiment using gold embossing powder onto a banner and adhered it over the heart to finish the card.

    Thanks for stopping by!

    Love You Forever Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Today I have a sweet card to share with you using a technique from a stencil I did for another card I made in August. Below you will find the details and steps to create your own card.

    Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 11″ x 4 1/4″, score at 5 1/2″ and fold in half for a horizontal side fold card. (A2)

    Step 2 – Trim White Cardstock to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. Apply a stencil you have in your stash and apply Distress Oxide Ink in various colors. This will give you a background but there is still ink on the stencil which doesn’t need to go to waste. Spray water and place on top of another cardstock trimmed to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. When you remove the stencil you now have a watercolor inked background. Below is a photo of my card using the inked background as it was originally intended to use. My photo above for today’s card is using the ink left over on the stencil for the watercolor effect.

    Step 3 – Diecut Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangles to the panel created in Step 2. Adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. Place something heavy on top while it dries to prevent warping.

    Step 4 – Diecut Floral Heart using Pink Cardstock and Black Cardstock. Adhere the Pink diecut on top of the Black and off set it (this will create a shadow effect) then adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 5 – Diecut I Love You Shadow Sentiment using White Cardstock x3. Adhere each layer and adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 6 – Stamp any sentiment in your stash using Versamark on Black Cardstock. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder and remove the excess. Heat set it with a heat tool. Try the sentiment and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 7 – Stamp Koala-ty Time image using Gina K Amalgam Ink. Color in image in alcohol inks of your choice. I used Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers. Cut out image or use your Scan N Cut and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive to the top portion and a piece of Foam Tape to the bottom portion.

    This card can be used for several occasions by changing the colors, image and/or sentiment. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

    Hi Everyone! Priscilla here from Nubble Light Designs. Today I have another “Happy New Year” card for you. I don’t think anyone can make too many of these this year, do you? LOL!

     

    I used “Salty Ocean,” “Blueprint Sketch,” and “Chipped Sapphire” Distress Oxide inks to make the night sky and an Echo Park stencil and gold embossing paster to create the fireworks. Next I colored and die cut the celebratory Newton the cat, from Newton Nook‘s “Newton’s New Year Stamp & Die Combo.

     

    I finished the card by gold heat embossing “2021”  at the bottom and die cutting the sentiment “Happy New Year” using the Kat Scrappiness “Happy New Year Brush Script Word & Sentiment Die” and hot pink card stock.

    Happy New Year to You All!

    Thank you so much for stopping by! Don’t forget to check out what’s NEW in Kat’s Shop, and follow my blog and Instagram for more “Kat Scrappiness Amazingness”!
