  • Clean & Simple “Love” A2 Card

    Clean & Simple “Love” A2 Card

    Sheri here today with a CAS (clean and simple) Valentine card idea!

    I love the look of Clean & Simple cards but sometimes struggle with leaving all the white space.

    For today’s card I used the white space to show off the texture of KS NEW Stitched Hearts Cover Plate and just added a trio of hearts and a sentiment! Do you like to make CAS cards?

    Steps to Create Card:

    • Create A2 Top Fold Card Base: 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ (4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″).
    • Cut White Mat: 3 5/8″ x 4 7/8″
    • Take a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ panel and cut it out with the Stitched Hearts Cover Plate. Next you will cut down the panel using the Never Ending Rectangles die set to create a panel measuring  3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″.
    • Cut out 3 hearts using the second largest die from the Nested Heart die set (2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″). I used Gina K Red Hot, Dusty Rose and Innocent Pink for my colored card stock. For a little added texture I ink blended the edges of the hearts with the coordinating ink colors.
    • Cut the “Love” from the I Love You Shadow die set with red glittler card stock.
    • Cut a Vellum belly band to wrap around card behind sentiment measuring 5″ x 1 1/4″.
    • For embellishment I cut out a few tiny hearts from the Heart Dounut Builder die set to sprinkle on the right side of my card.
    • Assemble Card. To add a little dimension, I used foam tape to pop up the card panel to the card base along with the three hearts.

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I have two cards to share using one DIY Background along with the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Scalloped Hearts die and Layering Nested Heart dies. Below you will find the steps to create your own cards.

    Card #1

    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 – Trim Copy Paper to 5 1/2” x 4 1/4”. Trim Cardstock strips in various colors and sizes. I trimmed the following. Red Cardstock 1/2”, Pink Cardstock 1/4” and Cream Cardstock 1/8”. Adhere the strips to the Copy Paper using adhesive of your choice. I used Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. Let dry.

    Step 3 – Diecut Layering Nested Heart using the panel created in Step 2. Adhere a piece of Acetate to the backside using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. Adhere Foam Tape to the backside except the area of the window. Trim a piece of Red Cardstock and adhere to card front making sure it covers the area where the window will be. Add Talk About It Sprinkles to the center of the card front. Remove the release sheet from the foam tape of the panel and carefully adhere to the card front. You now have a shaker card.

    Step 4 – Diecut Stitched Scalloped Hearts using Cream Cardstock. Now diecut Layering Nested Heart using the Stitched Scalloped Heart diecut. This will create a frame. Adhere to the card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 5 – Diecut I Love You With Shadow using Cream Cardstock for the word Love and Red Cardstock for the Love Shadow. Assemble and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

  • Valentine Love

    Valentine Love

    • Happy Saturday to all my crafty friends. It is time to start making Valentine cards using stamps and dies from the large Kat Scrappiness line of Valentine stamps and dies.
    • I started the card by cutting an A-2 red card base. Next I cut a layer one in white and splattered black craft paint on it. I then cut a thin black frame to add to the layers.

    Using the KS I Love You Shadow die I cut the l and the You out of pink card stock and the love out of red card stock. Then I die cut the shadow in gray for the pink words and black for the red word.

    Next I stamped the kaolas and the foliage from the Koala-ty Time Stamp Set. These images I colored and placed onto the card front. I used foam tape for the koalas. Lastly I added the sentiment tucked in among the stamped images. For my final touch I added a few red Heart sprinkles to the card front.

    Supplies:

    KS red Heart sprinkles

    KS I Love You Shadow die

    KS Koala-ty Time Stamp set

  • Love is in the Air

    Love is in the Air

    Happy Saturday to all,

    Creating a slim line Valentine today using Kat Scrappiness dies. This is a clean and simple card for when you have to make a card and do not want to ink.

    I cut a standard 3.5 x8.5 inch base in black card stock. Next I die cut a layer using the Kat Scrappiness “Zig Zag” slim line die in a salmon card stock. Finally I cut a white layer to size leaving only a zig zag boarder.

    Now for the focal images, I die cut hearts in three colors using Kat Scrappiness “Embossed Edged Heart” Die. I found that five rows of two fit nicely onto the white layer.  For the sentiment I die cut the words love and you using the Kat Scrappiness “I Love You” shadow die Set. I cut the words twice, once in black and once in salmon. I stacked them using an offset to create a shadow behind the sentiment. I added a few sequins and the card is complete.

  • Love You Forever Card

    Love You Forever Card

    Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Today I have a sweet card to share with you using a technique from a stencil I did for another card I made in August. Below you will find the details and steps to create your own card.

    Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 11″ x 4 1/4″, score at 5 1/2″ and fold in half for a horizontal side fold card. (A2)

    Step 2 – Trim White Cardstock to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. Apply a stencil you have in your stash and apply Distress Oxide Ink in various colors. This will give you a background but there is still ink on the stencil which doesn’t need to go to waste. Spray water and place on top of another cardstock trimmed to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. When you remove the stencil you now have a watercolor inked background. Below is a photo of my card using the inked background as it was originally intended to use. My photo above for today’s card is using the ink left over on the stencil for the watercolor effect.

    Step 3 – Diecut Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangles to the panel created in Step 2. Adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. Place something heavy on top while it dries to prevent warping.

    Step 4 – Diecut Floral Heart using Pink Cardstock and Black Cardstock. Adhere the Pink diecut on top of the Black and off set it (this will create a shadow effect) then adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 5 – Diecut I Love You Shadow Sentiment using White Cardstock x3. Adhere each layer and adhere to card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 6 – Stamp any sentiment in your stash using Versamark on Black Cardstock. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder and remove the excess. Heat set it with a heat tool. Try the sentiment and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 7 – Stamp Koala-ty Time image using Gina K Amalgam Ink. Color in image in alcohol inks of your choice. I used Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers. Cut out image or use your Scan N Cut and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive to the top portion and a piece of Foam Tape to the bottom portion.

    This card can be used for several occasions by changing the colors, image and/or sentiment. Below is a link to all 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 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!
