    Balloon Shaker

    Hi friends,

    Thought I would make a quick card today. So I naturally turned to one of the Kat Scrappiness shaker kits. These kits are so much fun to create with and she has so many designs to choose. There is certainly one that would fit whatever occasion for which you are creating.

    I started by painting the boarders of the shaker image. Next I filled the shaker with several different colors of Kat Scrappiness sprinkles. Once this was completed all I had left was to create the background.

    I die cut circles in various sizes and colors. I arranged them onto a card base. I added a thin frame to add a layering look.

    I added paint splatter to the card background. Then I attached the shaker, a bow and a sentiment to complete this simple and easy card.

    Fur Baby Love

    Hello and welcome to the Kat Scrappiness blog! It’s Lisa from Oh So Cute By Lisa and I have a card for all you animal lovers out there! If you haven’t noticed slimline dies are all the rage right now and Kat Scrappiness is now carrying a wide variety of slimline dies with some very unique styles!  I used 2 of the newest slimline dies for my card. 
     
    I started out with a card base of 8 1/2″ x 7″ and scored it 3 1/2″. The next layer is the largest die from the Stitched Scalloped Nesting Slimline Dies and it is cut from kraft card stock. The top layer is cut from white card stock using the 2nd largest die from the Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies.
     
    For the main focal point on my card I used the word dies and the pawprint die from the Pet Sentiments Dies. I filled the pawprints with some patterned
    paper I made myself using a stencil.
     
    To finish off my card I added these 3 fun sprinkles
    around the words and the pawprints:
     
     
     
    I’m really happy with how this card came out and I just love the 
    paw prints in the WOOF and MEOW dies!
     
    Here is one more picture with all of the fabulous  Kat Scrappiness 
    products I used on my card:

    Sweet Birthday Wishes Slimline Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Kat Scrappiness has quite a selection of the Slimline Nesting Dies. I used the Zig Zag Nesting Slimline die for today’s card. Below you will find the steps to create your own Sweet Birthday Wishes Slimline Card.

    Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 7” x 8 1/2”, score at 3 1/2” and fold in half for a vertical side fold card (Slimline)

    Step 2 – Trim Black Cardstock to 3 1/4” x 8 1/4” and adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 3 – Trim White Cardstock to 3 1/2” x 8 1/2” (this can be used from the excess of Cardstock from Step 1). Place a background stencil on top and secure it with painter’s tape or washy tape. Apply ink with a blending brush. I used Distress Oxide Inks in colours Spiced Marmalade, Fired Brick, Mustard Seed, Aged Mahogany for the Flowers and Twisted Citron for the Leaves. I used Post it notes to mask off the areas I did not want colours to blend.

    Step 4 – Diecut Zig Zag Nesting Slimline with the panel created in Step 3 and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 5 – Diecut Sweet (word die) using Orange Cardstock and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 6 – Stamp sentiment using Versamark Ink on Black Cardstock, sprinkle White Embossing Powder and remove the excess. Heat set it with a heat tool. Trim out the sentiment and adhere to card using Foam Tape.

    Step 7 – For added interest and sparkle randomly adhere Sparkling Clear Jewels using a Crystal Katana and Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    This card can be used for several occasions by changing the Word Die and sentiment strip. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
