  • Mini Slimline Quokka Birthday Card

    Mini Slimline Quokka Birthday Card

    Sheri here today with a masculine birthday card featuring the adorable Everyday Quokka stamp & die set!

    Do you struggle with masculine cards? I know I do at times. I thought that starting with a ink blended background would be fun and this argyle background was perfect for a masculine themed card!


    Steps to Create Card:

    • Create a Mini Slimline card base:  3 1/2″ x 6″ (Cut card stock to 6″ x 7″,  score at 3 1/2″ on the 7″ side).
    • Cut Blue Mat: 2 15/16″ x 5 7/16″.
    • Cut White Panel for stenciled back ground. Start with a piece of card stock measuring 3 1/2″ x 6″.  Using the Newton’s Nook Argyle Stencil and two shades of blue (GKD Blue Denim & GKD In The Navy) to stencil the background. I found using the Mini Detail Blending Brushes helpful for the stitching. You want to pounce up and down to create the clean lines.
    • Trim White/Stenciled Panel down to 2 13/16″ x 5 5/16″.
    • Cut out a white 2 1/2″ circle from the Never Ending Circle die set. Depending on the look you want I trimmed off to match the blue mat once the card was assembled.
    • Stamp and Color the Quokka and present from the Everyday Quokka stamp set. I stamped with alcohol friendly ink and used copic markers. Then I cut out with the coordinating die set. You can also fussy cut the images out.
    • Stamp sentiment from the Everyday Brush Strokes stamp set with Versamark and emboss with white embossing powder. Now trim into a sentiment strip (approx 2 1/4″ x 3/8″).
    • Assemble card. For dimension I added foam tape to pop up the card panel to the card base, the circle element, Quokka and present. This is optional.
    • For embellishment I added a few enamel dots from the America the Great collection.

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

  • Birthday Essential Dies – I Love You

    Birthday Essential Dies – I Love You

    Happy Monday.  Did everyone take a look at the new Birthday Essentials release from this weekend?  There are so many great new products in the shop.

    My card today features several dies from the Birthday Essentials die set – the cake, dripping icing, and bow. I die cut my shapes from various colors of card stock and adhered them together.  I die cut a panel of white card stock and a piece of the turquoise Spectrum of Love pattern paper with one of the Stitched Fancy Scalloped rectangle dies.  I adhered the turquoise pattern paper to the lower half of the panel and added a strip of pink patterned paper.  I very lightly ink blended on the center of the panel with light pink ink to get a glowing effect behind the cake.  I heat embossed my sentiment from the Everyday Brushstrokes stamp set to the top of the panel.  I added the cake with dimensional adhesive to the panel and adhered the panel to a light gray card base with dimensional adhesive.  I added fuchsia berry rhinestones on the cake to finish off the card.

    I love that this die set can be used for much more than birthdays.  Thanks for stopping by.

    MARIA RUSSELL

     

    My first card was created by die-cutting the Cross-Stitched Slimline panel on white card stock.   I used the Everyday Brush Strokes stamp set and stamped the image a few times in rainbow order.  Finishing the design by adding the “you” from the Thank You with Shadow die and Sparkling Clear Droplets sampler pack for added texture.

     

     

    I used the Zig-Zag Nesting Slimline die as well as the Zig-zag rectangle dies to adorn the background for my Thanksgiving Gnomes.   The berries came from the Happy Fall Y’all stamp set.  I wanted to use a funny sentiment (available at the shop) from Riley & Co. called Vegetarian Cling Stamp that I thought went perfectly with this scene.  It makes me laugh!

  • Lola Happy Birthday Slimline Card

    Lola Happy Birthday Slimline Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Slimline cards are the rage right now and Kat Scrappiness has you covered with an awesome selection of dies. Below you will find the steps to create your own Lola Happy Birthday 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 – Diecut Wonky Stitched Nesting Slimline using White Cardstock. Adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 3 – Trim White Cardstock to 2 1/2” x 7 1/2”. Apply Distress Oxide Ink Speckled Egg and Stormy Sky onto a kraft mat, spray with water and dip the panel into the ink. Heat set in between dips and repeat until desired effect is achieved. Set aside to dry.

    Step 4 – Diecut Never Ending Circles to create Balloons using various colours of Cardstock. (If you have a Balloon die then use that instead). Cut out a small triangle to place in back of the circles. Add string to the back using a piece of tape. Adhere to panel created in Step 3. Bottom Balloon is adhered using Foam Tape and Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive to the balance. Trim off the Balloons that is hanging off the edges. Adhere the entire panel to the card front.

    Step 5 – Stamp Lola The Giraffe using Gina K Amalgam Ink on White Cardstock. Colour in with any Alcohol Markers of your choice. I used Spectrum Noir Classique Markers. Fussy cut the image and using a Black marker add Black ink to the edges. While I was doing that my marker slipped and I marked the ear and the foot. To fix this I created a bow to cover the ear and recoloured the feet and that fixed my errors. Wrap the strings around the horn on the left side and adhere the image using Foam Tape

    Step 6 – Stamp Everyday Brush Strokes sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black Ink to the bottom of the card front.

    Step 7 – For added interest and sparkle randomly adhere Sparkling Clear Jewels using a Crystal Katana and Collage Medium.

    This card can be used for many occasions by changing the colours and sentiment. For an example it can be for an anniversary or baby shower, etc. Below is a link to the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

  • You Color My World Rainbow Card

    You Color My World Rainbow Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I have been playing around with the Never Ending Circle dies to create rainbows. It is super easy and by stacking the Circle dies you end up getting 2 with one pass. Below you will find the steps to create your own You Color My World Rainbow 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 vertical side fold card. (A2)

    Step 2 – Diecut Stitched Cloud Backdrop using Black Cardstock. Adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 3 – Diecut 7 of the largest Never Ending Circles using White Cardstock. Colour in each layer in rainbow order using any colour medium of your choice. I used alcohol markers. Once coloured cut in half. Adhere the rainbow using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. See below photos.

    Step 4 – Diecut He Is Risen (x2 small cloud and 1x large cloud) using White Cardstock. Adhere small cloud and large cloud using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. For the last small cloud stamp Everyday Brush Strokes sentiment Color My World. I used Washi Tape to cover the word You and the other words except one word in one colour. I removed the Washi Tape and stamped. I repeated this process to have each word in a different colour. Adhere the stamped cloud using Foam Tape.

    Step 5 – Diecut I Love You With Shadow using Red Cardstock for the shadow and Orange Cardstock for the word. Assemble and adhere to card using Foam Tape.

    Step 6 – For added interest I adhered Confetti Sprinkles using all the 6 colours used in the rainbow using Collage Medium and a Crystal Katana. The colours of the Confetti Sprinkles are Red, Orange, Bright Yellow, Lime Green, Light Blue and Purple.

    This card can be used for any occasion by changing the colours and sentiment. Right now cards using Rainbows with words of encouragement are the rage. Below you will find the link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
