Magical Unicorn Shaker Card

June 10, 2019

1 Comments

Hello crafty friends! Kat Scrappiness is releasing some beautiful sprinkles and sequins this month and for today’s project I was inspired by the new sprinkles mix Magical Unicorn Sprinkles. I picked out a favorite unicorn stamp set to pair with it, Be a Unicorn from Avery Elle, and some matching Distress Oxide Inks Picked Raspberry, Salty Ocean and Wilted Violet. For a more detailed tutorial check out my video below:

I blended up a background using the inks, spritzed it with some shimmer spray, and then cut it with the Mandala Frame die. I then colored up my unicorn. using Copics (C00, C1, R81, R83, R85, V20, V22, V25, B00, B02, B04). When it was time to set up the shaker, I was able to make rectangles because of the small border around the diecut. I had picked the mandala frame because it had an obvious focal point and I knew I would be able to create rectangles for the shaker part. This meant being able to add shaker material to the top and bottom of the card and extra shaker card goodness without have to shake the card too hard. Finally I filled up my shaker with the Magical Unicorn sprinkles and some Pink Solid Confetti. I love how the Pink Solid Confetti changes when you move it in the light.

Hi Crafty Friends,

It’s almost Father’s Day! Did you make your dad a card? Guy cards are so hard to make, so I’m giving you a great idea with these great “Dad Joke” type puns! I had so much fun making this BBQ/picnic themed card. This adorable set from Kat Scrappiness is called Punny Snack Stamp Set and it’s chalk full of funny! I mean come on, who doesn’t love a good food pun or Dad Joke?

Have you joined the Kat Scrappiness June Challenge yet? The theme is MEALS with DAD… this set is PERFECT for the Challenge, shop now, and show us your card!

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:

Q: What is your favorite food pun? or Dad Joke?

A: Me? I love the food pun on this set…Exercise? No EXTRA fries! HA!

I started by finding a pattern paper that looks like a picnic tablecloth for my panel. I colored up the little food images and fussy cut them out. I matched them with their sentiments which I stamped on the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Flag dies. I finished the card by adding some glossy accents to the stamps and strips of ribbon across the top and bottom.

So Happy For You

Hi everyone! Did you see the cute stamp set, So Hoppy For You, that was released earlier this week. It’s so cute and I can’t resist a kangaroo!

As cute as they are, I wanted to show you how you can use the smaller stamps and modify one of the sentiments to get more use out of this stamp set.

I created a wreath using the leaf stamp from the So Hoppy For You stamp set and the Wreath Builder template from Gina K. I used one of the Wonky Wavy Stitched rectangle dies to cut out the wreath panel I then stamped the small flower and the bunch of flowers from the stamp set and colored everything with Copic markers. I cut out the small flowers and cut out just the big flower from the bunch of flowers. I adhered the flowers around the wreath. I added some orange, pretty pink, and medium blue jewels to finish the wreath.

For the sentiment, I stamped the So Hoppy For You sentiment directly onto the wreath panel. I then took a black pen from my stash and turned the “o” in Hoppy to an “a” to make the sentiment say so happy for you. And wallah, you have a new sentiment for this stamp set!

HI Everyone, it’s Tina here. Today I have a sweet card to share with you using the new Hoppy For You Stamp set. I was totally thrilled when I received them as who can resist adorable Roo’s!!! Below you will find the steps to make your own card.

Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″ and fold in half for a horizontal side fold card. (A2)

Step 2 – Apply Distress Oxide Broken China and Tumbled Glass to the card front using the Life Changing Brushes to create a Ombre Background. Starting at the top apply Broken China, then work in Tumbled Glass and fading out to nothing.

Step 3 – Optional – Stamp Border to the edges on top and bottom. (A diagonal stripe) using Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

Step 4 – Diecut Stitched Scallop Border using White Cardstock 2 times. Adhere to card on top and bottom using foam tape leaving 1/2″ to show the border stamp. If you skipped Step 3 then adhere completely to the top and bottom.

Step 5 – Stamp Hoppy For You images using Gina K Amalgam Ink on White Cardstock. This is for alcohol coloring and won’t create smudges or smears. Color in the images using alcohol markers of your choice. I used Tri-Blend markers from Spectrum Noir. Fussy cut the images and adhere to card using foam tape and Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. (Foam Tape only where the images will touch the card front.)

Step 6 – Stamp Hoppy For You sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

I decided against any added interest and sparkle but you can certainly add some. This card can be used for any occasion by changing the colors and sentiment. Below is a link to all the products used.

Welcome back to the blog Kat Scrappiness Fans! It’s Lisa here today and I have a special card for you using the new Hoppy for You stamp set. This adorable stamp set features the most adorable Kangaroo with her Baby Roo! It also has the cutest little pouch stamp to put baby roo in. It also contains some small sweet floral images to adorn your Kangaroo cards!

I thought it was only fitting to make a flip card for this new stamp set.

Here is a second picture with the inside of the front panel after it opens.

I followed a video on YouTube to make the basic mechanism for the flip part of the card.

I used the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Dies for the bottom panel of the card and the top panels were hand cut into layered rectangles.

I just love how this card came out and it’s so much fun to open and close.

Here is a short clip to show how the card works.

She finished her design by adding the flower on the mommy kangaroo and adhered some Sparkling clear jewel.

LISA GOLZBEIN

I am so in-love with this card by Lisa. She stamped and colored her images in with alcohol markers and used her Brother Scan N Cut 2 to die-cut the images. She also die cut her white background and patterned paper using the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle die. She used the Scalloped Border die to cut the pink patterned paper and assembled the card, by creating a wreath around the Kangaroo. What a lovely card!

Meghan created this BEAUTIFUL card using a lot of products from the shop. She stamped and colored her images in with Copic markers and die-cut the same using her electronic die-cutting machine. She used some dies from her stash to die-cut the sun and the clouds. Meghan also used the Crafter’s Essentials – Easter Edition die set to die cut her grassy hills and finished her design by adding Nuvo Crystal drops.

PRISCILLA JOSEPH

Wow, wow, wow! I absolutely LOVE this AMAZING card design by Priscilla. She masked her image using masking paper to create the “selfie” scene on her card and colored her Kangaroo with Spectrum Noir TriBlend markers. The background paper she used is by Simple Stories “Say Cheese”. To finish her design, she used the heart embellishments from the shop. I think her design is so clever and unique!

Layered Nested Hearts by Martha Lucia

June 4, 2019

Hi there! Today I want to share two of my creations with the Layered Nested Hearts by Kat Scrappiness. To be honest, I am fascinated with the products release in May and I can not stop to use them in my creations.

The Layered Nested Hearts is a set of heart die cuts that works with all the stitched scalloped hearts and zig zag hearts available in Kat Scrappiness Store. All the cardstock that I used to create this card is from Bazzill Basics Paper. They come linked but with the new Metal Die Side Snips from Kat Scrappiness is easy and safe cut them and separate.

This card is 4-1/4″x4-1/4″ and I cut the second layer using one of the Zig Zag Squares dies by Kat Scrappiness. I stamped some branches of flowers over the Bazzill Basics Paper cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Alcohol Markers. Then I fussy cut the flowers and with my scissors to separate and create the heart shape around one layered heart.

As final touch I added some Magenta AB Flower Blossom sequins, that by way come in different colors and I want to have all!

To make my second card, I cut the large layered nested heart partially from the card base and decorated the front and back of it with a zig zag heart and a small layered nested heart respectively.

Inside of the card is one heart that I stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturne using the stamp set Friendship Greetings.
