    Good Morning! Today I am over on the Kat Scrappiness Blog with some graduation card inspiration for you. I am using the new stencils from Kat Scrappiness and this card features the Falling Starlight Stencil and the Proud Of You Shadow Die sentiment. All supplies for this are listed below so please feel free to shop your favorites! I have quite a few relatives graduating this year. I thought it would be fun to use the school colors on their cards.

    Card Details

    • Cut, score, and fold an A2 card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110lb card stock.
    • Cut a card panel at 4.25″ x 5.5″
    • Center the shadow from the Proud of You dies in the top third of the panel and die-cut.
    • Die-cut the words from white card stock. I used Lunar Paste and covered the words. Allow this to dry.
    • Ink blend the card panel. I used Antique Linen, Dried Marigold, Iced Marmalade, and Black Soot.
    • After the panel was dry. I added the Falling Starlight Stencil on top and put Lunar Paster over the top.
    • To the back of the dry panel add a piece of acetate slightly larger than the shadow opening. I used double-sided adhesive.
    • Add dimensional foam tape around the opening and all around the base.
    • Sprinkle in your shaker elements.
    • TIP: Once I remove the paper from the foam tape I add Bearly Arts Precision glue. This allows for adjustment when adding the card base.
    • Add your card base.
    • Add glue to your sentiment and allow it to dry.
    • I added the Black Tie Sprinkles to the shaker element and to the front of the card.

    That’s it my card for today is done! As always thanks for stopping by! Make sure you stop by the Kat Scrappiness store to pick up the NEW stencils! They are essential to anyone’s stash! Have a great day!

    Wedding Heart | Love | Shaker Card

    Hello KS Friends!!

    Sheri here with a festive Wedding card featuring the NEW Wedding Heart Shaker Card Kit! If you missed the Shake It Up Release this past weekend you can find the full release HERE.

    31 NEW Shaker Card Kits were added to the store and can be found HERE.  The shaker kits are super easy to assemble and just need to be filed with shaker bits of your choice.

    Steps to Create Card:

    • Create 5″ x 5″ Square Card Base (5″ x 10″, scored at 5″).
    • Cut Silver Mat: 4 3/4″ x 4 3/4″.
    • Cut White Panel: 4 5/8″ x 4 5/8″. Next you can emboss with a favorite embossing folder of your choice or create a faux embossed background like I did. To create a faux embossed background, I cut out approximately 16 hearts (smallest heart from the Layering Nested Hearts die set). I then glued them randomly on my panel.
    • Assemble the White Panel to the Silver Mat and attach it to your white card base.
    • Assemble Wedding Heart Shaker. First I painted the heart with white acrylic paint and to add a bit of shine I did emboss twice with white embossing powder, next I attached the foam heart to my card panel, filled with shaker bits, attached Acetate heart to Wood Heart and then glued it to the foam heart. I used a combination of 1/8″ double sided tape and liquid glue. My shaker is not going anywhere.
    • For a sentiment I added the word “Love” die cut in silver card stock from the Love You w/Shadow die. The sentiment is cut out twice and stacked and glued directly to the bottom of the bridal couple.

    Here’s a list of the supplies I used from the store.

    Happy Stamping!!

    Foiling with the new KS Stencils

    Hello KS fans! I hope you all had a great weekend! If you haven’t seen the new stencils yet, you may want to check them all out on the KS store. For my card today, I am showcasing the Falling Starlights 6×6 Stencil with the Sending My Love Sentiment with Shadow Die.

    This card is really simple, but I love how it turned out.

     

     

    I started by ink-blending a panel of some Bristol Smooth White Card stock using some Distress Oxide Inks.  For the colors, I used Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral and Seedless Preserves.  This color combo is one of my favorites!

     

    Next, I temporarily taped the Falling Starlights 6×6 Stencil to the ink-blended panel  and used my palette knife to apply Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo.  I waited about half an hour to let the panel dry and cut out some Gina K Designs Deco Foil in Wild Dandelion.  I ran this through my laminator and adhered the panel on some black card base.

     

     

    I die-cut the words Sending my Love using the Sending My Love Sentiment with Shadow Die with some black and white card stock and used liquid glue to adhere them together, then added it to my card using my tape runner.  I finished the card design by using some white gel pen and drew some stars and dots for added interest.  Here’s another look:

     

    I hope you like this card today.  The supplies I used are listed and linked below.  Thanks for stopping by!

    Happy Summer

    Happy Sunday! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. Today I wanted to share a card I made with the NEW Sailboat Shaker Card Kit. It is so perfect for those summer creations.

     

     

    Don’t you just love shaker cards? These are so much fun. To create this card I first painted the shaker with acrylic paint and added some pearl ex to the white part of the boat, I wanted to give it some extra texture. I let it dry, then I filled the shaker with Red Jewels, Dark Blue Jewels, and White Jewels these are all available at the store.

    I wanted to make a scene for my sailboat. I used the Stitched Waves Slimline Die and added waves to my slimline size card after I stenciled the clouds. I used the Happy Summer with Shadow Die to give this card a sentiment. After I created my card I adhered the shaker on my card. I hope you like the finished product.

    If you haven’t checked out the whole NEW release visit HERE. Also there is still time to join in the instagram hop #ksshakeituphop for a chance to win a prize!!

    Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    Slimline Graduation Card | Adding Glitter with a Stencil | Call Me Crafty Al

    Hello crafty friends!

    It’s Alicia a.k.a. Crafty Al here to share a look at the slimline graduation card that I created with Kat Scrappiness goodies including the NEW Falling Starlights stencil!

    To create the background on the card front I did an ombre blend from bottom to top using a blue ink. I then set up the Falling Starlights Stencil and used the same blue ink for a layer of stars. After blending the blue stars I used Deco Foil Transfer Gel DUO with the stencil and added silver glitter and set it aside to dry. To cover the full length of the slimline card front, I did have to shift the stencil. Make sure to watch my video (linked below) to see how I shifted the stencil.

    To finish the card I cut the word “CONGRATS” from blue and silver cardstock using the Condensed Uppercase Alphabet die set and layered them together with a bit of an offset.

    You can check out my video for the full process…

    Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed today’s card!

    Happy Birthday Slimline Card!

    Happy Friday Friends!

    Tasha here sharing an easy slimline Birthday card tutorial perfect for Spring! I have been loving the new Kat Scrappiness Spring Fling Paper Pad and was inspired by all the pattern paper designs!

    The pretty flowers are from the Friendship Greetings Stamp Set and they frame the Happy Birthday Layered sentiment perfectly. I also add little yellow enamel dots to the center of the flowers for extra color and shine. I love the enamel dots!

    To frame the center card, I used the fun Mini Slimline Scalloped Edge Dies. This die set is a great size if you want to create slimline designs, but in a smaller size. The mini size is easy to mail and great it you want to give a cash gift to someone.

    Check out my full tutorial on the Kat Scrappiness YouTube Channel!

    [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOGGdcWMfls]

    Lastly, I attached layers of bright cardstock to coordinate with the chevron print and flowers. This card design would also be great for Mother’s Day, a Hello card, or a Thank-You card.

    Have a great day!

    -Tasha
