  • Oopsie Daisy – Happy Birthday Card

    Oopsie Daisy – Happy Birthday Card

    Happy Friday Friends! Sheri from the Creative Crew here today with a Birthday card featuring the Oopsie Daisy Layering Stencil along with a few other supplies.

     


    Steps to Create Card:

    • Cut White A2 Top Fold Card Base: 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ (4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″)
    • Cut White panel using the A2 Quilted Background die.
    • Cut White frame using the largest die from the A2 Frame die set.
    • Cut 2 White fishtail banners from the Nesting Fishtail Banner die set. I used the second & third largest banners in the set: 3″ x 4 1/2″ & 2 5/8″ x 4″.
    • Ink blend the largest fishtail banner from the 2 you cut out. (used Gina K. Dark Orchid)
    • Stamp birthday sentiment from the Happy Day and Every Day Brush Strokes stamp sets on the smaller fishtail banner towards the bottom. Use black ink for the “Happy” and stamp the “Birthday” using embossing ink on a scrap piece of black card stock that you will trim into a strip using the Boxed Sentiment Strip dies.
    • Cut foliage from the Stitched Foliage die set. I cut three pieces from white card stock.
    • Ink blend foliage pieces using green ink. (used Gina K. Designs Jelly Bean Green)
    • Take white card stock large enough to stencil your flowers and leaves. With the Oopsie Daisy Layering Stencil and three shades of ink to create your daises. (used Gina K. Light Orchid, Medium Orchid and Dark Orchid). You will also need 4 leaves. (I used Gina K. Jelly Bean Green and was just heavy handed with the second layer). Once your daisies and leaves are complete, cut them out with the Oopsie Daisy Coordinating Die Set.
    • Assemble Card. (foam tape optional)
    • For embellishment I added a few Ice Ice Baby Clear Enamel Dots.

     

    Here’s a list of supplies I used that can be found in the store.

  • Happy Retirement

    Happy Retirement

    Happy Saturday, I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.  It’s Caren here on the blog with a retirement card for you today.  After over 20 years, my hair stylist is retiring – not sure what I’m going to do now!  I’ve created her this fun card using several Kat Scrappiness products.

     

     

    Here is how I created my card:

    • I die using the Mini Slimline Scalloped Edge die from white card stock
    • I used a brick stencil to lightly stencil with gray ink onto part of the panel
    • I die cut from colored card stock the wine bottle and glass from the Wine Not die set and adhered together
    • I stamped Happy from the Happy Day stamp set directly to my panel using versamark ink and gray embossing powder
    • I stamped Retirement from the Happy Day stamp set onto pink cardstock with Versamark ink and gray embossing powder
    • I adhered the wine bottle, wine glass, and retirement sentiment to the panel using dimensional adhesive
    • I added the panel to a gray mini slimline card base
    • I added Pink Lemonade and Gray Opal pearls to finish the card

    Check out the Kat Scrappiness shop where there is a surprise DIE sale going on now!

    Thanks for stopping by.

  • Happy New Year’s Mini Slimline Card

    Happy New Year’s Mini Slimline Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Stencils are so versatile. You can ink, dry emboss and apply gels and/or pastes. For my card I applied Deco Foil using the Falling Stars Stencil to create a Glittery Sky Scene. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.

    Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 7” x 6”, score at 3 1/2” and fold in half for a horizontal top fold card. (Mini Slimline)

    Step 2 – Trim Purple Cardstock to 3 1/2” x 6”. Place Falling Stars stencil on top and apply Deco Foil duo using a spatula. Quickly remove the stencil and rinse off the paste. Let it dry until it is clear. Place a Deco Foil Transfer Sheet Sparkling Silver on top of the panel and pass it through a laminator. Gently remove the sheet and now you have a glittery sky background. Adhere to card front using Bearly Art Precision Glue.

    Step 3 – Diecut Slimline Layered Cityscape using Yellow Cardstock for the back and Black Cardstock for the top. If your diecut keeps some of the diecut pieces for the windows you can leave it in. Adhere together and then adhere to card front using Bearly Art Precision Glue.

    Step 4 – Stamp Happy Day sentiments (Happy New Year’s) inside the card using Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

    Try using your stencils besides inking to get many looks. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

  • A Simple Mother’s Day Card

    A Simple Mother’s Day Card

    Hello Friends!! Nora here from the Kat Scrappiness Design Team with a Mother’s Day Card featuring the new Kat Scrappiness Spring Fling 6″ by 8″ Paper Pad that came out this month. I love that I was able to use this paper for my background and every part of my flower bunch.

    Card Details:

    • Cut a piece of white cardstock into an 8 1/2″ by 4 1/2″ and fold it at the top
    • Using the aqua piece of paper from the Spring Fling paper, cut it into a 5 1/2″ by 3 1/4″ piece and adhere it to the card front on the right side
    • Slice the striped paper from the paper pack into a 5 1/2″ by 1″ strip and adhere it to the left side of the card
    • Die cut tulips out of the two pink solid papers in the Spring Fling pad, the stems out of the green and the bow out of the polka dot paper using the Tulip Bouquet Die Set.
    • Shade the flowers and the stems with Copic Markers or dye ink that is similar in color to the papers to give them some dimension. Adhere the flower stem and the tulips to the card. Using foam adhesive, adhere the front of the flower over the bottom.

    • Adhere the bow onto the card front
    • Stamp the sentiment using the Happy Day Stamp Set onto three pieces of white cardstock. Adhere the strips randomly onto the card front.
    • The last step is to randomly glue pearls from the Sea Foam Pearl Mix on the card front.

  • 2 for 1 Card

    2 for 1 Card

    birthday essentials, slimline, shaker card, die cut card, heat embossing, Nicki Hearts Cards

    Hi, I’m Nicki with the Design Team. Today, we are going to look at not wasting your die cuts. I will take you through the card process for 2 different cards with a way to use the negative space and the die cut piece. All of the details will be in the YouTube video so make sure to check it out.

    First, let’s start with the Birthday Essentials paper pack and die set.

    birthday essentials die

    I used the cake die from the set and several coordinating pieces of paper. First, I cut the cake shape from an A2 sized piece of patterned paper. I saved the cake and will work with the negative space first. I added acetate to the back of the negative space. Next, I added foam tape to make a shaker window.

    Now, it was time to add a little pizzaz to the cake frosting with some glitter paste. I cut the icing pieces out and attached them to the front of the shaker window.

    All that is left for this card is to add the shaker pieces and attach a sentiment.

    happy birthday, birthday essentials, Nicki Hearts Cards

     

    For the next card, I chose to make a slimline with the birthday essentials pack. I now need to decorate the icing for the cake that we previously cut out. I used Nuvo Drops in a bright blue. Once I have the cake together, I decided to make the sentiment a shaker piece.

    Using a shadow die for a shaker window is so fun! For the sentiment, I colored the white card stock with a blue Copic marker and added Nuvo drops in blue.

    birthday essentials, happy birthday

  • Stretch Your Dies | Winter Birthday Card

    Stretch Your Dies | Winter Birthday Card

    Hello! Amanda here. I hope you are well and getting everything done in preparation for the upcoming holidays. Today, I am sharing more ideas to stertch your dies using some Kat Scrappiness dies. Maybe it will even spark some creativity to stretch some other dies you own too! Let’s take a look at some finished product pictures first.

    I think this card is great for winter birthdays, but could also be great for a masculine birthday card. If you didn’t do the snowflake background from the Crafter’s Essential Winter Die Set, you could color the ground cover green and it wouldn’t have to be winter themed.

    I did prepare a video tutorial for you today. I hope you enjoy!

  • Happy Everything Summer Beach Card

    Happy Everything Summer Beach Card

    Hi Everyone! Priscilla here from Nubble Light Designs. Today I am sharing a “beachy” card that can be given for pretty much any summer occasion. Because who can resist a quokka girl doing the hula while wearing a lei made out of daisies?

    But first, check out Kat’s recent Release Post HERE.

     

     

    To make this card, I used 2 shades of Distress Oxide blue inks and a cloud stencil to create the the sky and ocean background. The sand and sun were created with dies from the Kat Scrappiness Summer Fun Essentials Dies set, and the cloud is from the Stitched Puffy Cloud Die collection.

    I used the Summer Quokka Stamp Set and coordinating dies for the quokka hula girl (colored with Spectrum Noir “Tri-Blend’ markers) and beach umbrella. I loved how the umbrella turned out. I stamped and then “paper pieced” it using one of the designs in the Rainbow Confetti Slimline Paper Pad. The sentiment is from the Happy Day Stamp Set.

     

     

    For a finishing touch, I adhered Kat’s Yellow Daisies Sprinkles  on the quokka’s lei and scattered several of the Ocean Blue Pearl Mix in the background.

    Thank you so much for stopping by! Don’t forget to check out what’s NEW in Kat’s Shop, and follow my blog and Instagram for more “Kat Scrappiness Amazingness”!
