    “I Miss You” Mini Slimline Card

    Hey Crafty Peeps! Priscilla here from Nubble Light Designs.Today I am sharing a card I made using the just released Reversed Scalloped Mini Slimline with Hello die set from Kat Scrappiness.


    To make this card, I created a cool ink blend with 3 Distress Oxide inks through a DIY cardstock stencil created using a rainbow slimline die. Sounds confusing? Keep reading to see how I did this.

     

    Card Details:

    1. Created a white cardstock mini slimline card base (6″ x 7″, scored at 3.5″)and set it aside.
    2. Die cut the top layer using the new Reversed Scalloped Mini Slimline with Hello die set and secured the scalloped frame to the middle portion using tape on the back.
    3. Made a DIY stencil by die cutting a rainbow shape opening in white cardstock using the Slimline Rainbow Die,laid it over my card front, and blended “Black Soot,” “Seedless Preserves,” and “Carved Pumpkin” Distress Oxide inks through it.

    4. Used the same ink blend over the “Hello” die cut and backed it with 2 more die cut layers in black to give it more dimension.
    5. Die cut one of the clouds from the same Slimline Rainbow Die collection, and stamped “I miss you” from the Quokka’n Up stamp set, adding 2 more die cut layers in black.
    6. Adhered both die cut sentiments above and below the ink blended opening and then adhered this finished layer onto the mini slimline card base.

    So Proud of You!

    Good Morning All of My Card Making Friends!

    This is Kathy from Expressive Paper.  I have been busy making cards for fall and Halloween.  Then I remembered December is not too far in the future and I need a graduation card!  This card is pretty simple and perfect for your graduate.

    Card Details

    •  I cut 6 of the “Proud of You” pieces and one of the shadows with a layering card stock
    • I used the 5 X 7 Stitched Rectangle Dies.  This is a 6 piece rectangular die set that is perfect for larger cards. Select the largest frame and the frame two sizes smaller. (your die cut word should fit into the rectangle)
    • Use whatever ink you use for ink blending and blend the shadow die piece. I used the colors of the school the student is graduating from. I also used the Mini Ink Blending Brushes
    • I next took a pearlescent spray and used it on the shadow and the card pieces.
    • Cut, fold and score your 5 x 7 card base
    • Adhere 5 of your “Proud of You” to the smaller stitched rectangle. I centered the dies but you could stagger them, add more whatever you want!
    • Adhere the 6th die cut on top of the shadow and place it in the bottom third of your card.
    • I added foam tape to the back of the main panel for dimension.
    • Adhere some Grey Opal Pearls to your card panel and you are done.

    Thank you so much for visiting the blog.  I would appreciate it if you would follow my blog I would love for you to join me on Instagram too! Currently, Kat Scrappiness is having a sale on all things in the Halloween and  Thanksgiving categories.  The sale goes on until October 25th so please take advantage of it!

    Halloween Sparkle Mini Slimline Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Today I have a Halloween sparkle Mini Slimline card to share with you using the Creepy Crawly dies, Boo-gy Ghosts dies, Crafter Essentials Fall dies, Crafter Essentials Halloween dies and the Happy Halloween w/Shadow dies. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.

    Step 2 – Trim Black Cardstock to 3 1/2” x 6”. Diecut Never Ending Circles using a Masking Sheet. Place the negative on the Black Cardstock in the upper right corner. Apply Distress Oxide Pumice Stone using a Blender Brush. Sprinkle some water. Remove the masking sheet. Add Distress Oxide Black Soot and Pumice Stone on a Craft Mat. Spray it with water and using an acetate sheet add it to the background. Sprinkle Shimmer Spritz and let dry.

    Step 3 – Diecut Mini Slimline Double Stitched using the Background created from Step 2. Adhere to card using Bearly Art Precision Glue.

    Step 4 – Diecut Creepy Crawly using Glitter Cardstock for the web and Black Cardstock for the spider. Adhere to card using Bearly Art Precision Glue.

    Step 5 – Diecut Crafter Essentials Fall using Black Cardstock for the tree. Adhere to card using Bearly Art Precision Glue. I used only placed the glue on the tree trunk so the branches are loose.

    Step 6 – Diecut Boo-gy Ghost using White Cardstock and adhere to card using Bearly Art Precision Glue.

    Creepy Crawly Coffin

    Hello Friends and Happy Friday!  It’s Donna W. here today and I’m sharing this Halloween project that’s sure to make your skin crawl…..unless you don’t have Arachnophobia!

    But before I get to the project, I would like to remind everyone of the Spooky Sale-A-Bration at the Kat Scrappiness Shop.  The Sale allows you to save 15% on products on the Halloween and Thanksgiving categories.

    I’ve created a Coffin Shaped Treat Box and decorated it using cuts from the Kat Scrappiness Creepy Crawly Die Set  and papers from the Boo To You Slimline Paper Pack.

    This Treat Coffin measures 5″ long x 2.75″ at the widest point x 1.25″ in height.  It is a free SVG cut file from Bird’s Cards and I cut it using my Cricut Explore Air.

    I’ve added googly eyes to the large spider and colored in the smaller spider’s eyes using Gelly Roll Pens.  For the finishing touches, I’ve added Silver Rhinestones and Dark Purple Amethyst Rhinestones; both from Kat Scrappiness along with a purple polka dot ribbon from my stash.
    Thanks for stopping by today and until next time, Happy Halloween Crafting!

    R.I.P. – Spooky Cemetery Halloween Card

    Hey Crafty Peeps! Priscilla here from Nubble Light Designs.Today I am sharing a spooky slimline Halloween card using the Crafters Essential Halloween Dies from Kat Scrappiness.

     

    This collection, which will work with A2, Slimline, Mini Slimline cards, and more, includes 8 individually designed dies that you can mix and match to create a multitude of scenes.

     

    Card Details:

    1. Created a black cardstock slimline card base (8.5″ x 7″, scored at 3.5″) and adhered a honey colored cardstock layer over it.
    2. Using Distress Oxide inks, created an eerie sky background, added gold spatter, and then die cut it out using one of the Kat Scrappiness Distressed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies before adhering it to the honey cardstock layer.
    3. Die cut the spooky tree, pumpkin, headstones, fence, bat, and moon (ALL included in the collection!) and adhered them to the front of the card to create a cemetery scene.

    4. Die cut the sentiment “Happy Halloween” 3 times out of gold cardstock for greater dimension and adhered them to the front of the card.
