  • Santa Flying Over The Mountains Card

    Santa Flying Over The Mountains Card

    Hey crafty friends! Today I am sharing a Christmas card showcasing the Slimline Mountainscape dies from Kat Sprappiness paired with the flying Santa from the new The Night Before Christmas Window Scene dies. I just LOVE this wintery scene! I am imagining Santa flying over the mountains on his way back to the North Pole after a long night of delivery presents! Here is how I made this card

    1. I decided to cut down the slimline mountains to a mini-slimline size, so I first cut out all the mountain dies from Neenah cardstock and then ink blended the mountains and trees with Distress inks. I wanted some dimension on the snow peaks of the mountains, so I decided to try out the new Deco Topping Marble-First Snow media from Kat Scrappiness. I loved how this turned out – it looks like packs of snow on the snow peaks!
    2. I then ink blended the background card panel with blue distress inks and glued the mountains onto the card panel using Bearly Art Glue. I popped the trees with foam tape. I then cut off the excess scene to match up to the mini-slimline card base. I then added some white splatter for a snowy scene using white acrylic paint.
    3. I then cut out the flying Santa from The Night Before Christmas Window Scene dies with black glitter cardstock. I then popped Santa above the mountains using foam tape so he flying in the sky.
    4. I then used the Happy Holidays sentiment from the Reindeer Games Sentiment stamp set and white embossed the sentiment on a piece of red cardstock I had in my stash. I cut the sentiment down to a strip and popped the sentiment onto the card base with foam tape.
    5. I then added some Sparkling Snow Pearl Mix embellishments to add the extra sparkle to my card before gluing the card panel onto a mini slimline card base.

    I love how this scene turned out! It is such a cute scene! I hope you got inspired by my card and I hope you have a great day! Don’t forget the Kat Scrappiness sale this month! Use the code CHRISTMAS10 to get 10% off Christmas items! Sale runs until December 24th! Thank you for stopping by!

    Creative Crew’s 2022 Holiday Gift Guide

    Hello Friends!! Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? Are your friends and family bugging you for some ideas? Nora here with a few of my FAVORITE Kat Scrappiness products for the Creative Crew’s 2022 Holiday Gift Guide. The entire Design Team is sharing their favorite products so be sure to check back to the Kat Scrappiness Blog for some fabulous ideas!!!

    Here are my favorite TOP FIVE ITEMS from Kat Scrappiness that I think are must haves for any collection.

    Number ONE on my list are the Stitched Nesting Dome Dies.

    I love these dies because you can use them in so many ways. You can make a window in a card front, add a punched hole to make a tag or even flip them the die over like I did below to create a fun backdrop for a card.

    Number TWO on my list is the Stitched Scalloped Collage Frame Die.

    I love this die because you can take smaller stamped images or small die cuts and layer them with in to create a collage. It is a way to stretch your products, using the tiny elements that you might otherwise overlook.

    Number THREE on my list are the Heart Donut Builder Dies.

    These dies can be used on all sorts of cards!! You could use some of the elements to create Christmas cookies, or flip the the frosting over and combine with a cup to make whip cream for hot chocolate. The ideas are ENDLESS!!!

    Number FOUR on my favorite things list are the Never Ending Circle Dies.

    A set of circle dies like these are ESSENTIAL in any collection. I use this type of die the most, whether it is to cut out images for layering or taping together to make a circle frame. Below I used the dies to create a simple word ballon for my sleeping cat.

    Number FIVE on my list are the simplest of all to give-Kat Scrappiness Gift Cards!!!

    Gift cards are the BEST because you or your crafty friends can buy whatever you would like!!! They start at $10 and can be bought for as much as you want. You can use them on anything in the Kat Scrappiness Shop. One of the EASIEST gift buying option there is!!!

  • Classic Gold Poinsettia Card

    Classic Gold Poinsettia Card

    Hello crafty friends!! Sammi here sharing a card made with goodies from the NEW RELEASE just released this weekend!! I am in LOVE with the new release! I decided to play with the new Layered Poinsettia Dies paired with the Reindeer Games paper pad and the Christmas Foliage Dies. I wanted a classic look, so I went with the traditional Christmas colors and golds for this card. Here is how I made it:

    1. First I cut the card panel with the A2 Quilted Backdrop with some olive green cardstock I had in my stash. I then cut a piece of gold metallic cardstock with the largest piece from the Nesting Fishtail Banner Dies and then cut the red snowflake paper from the Reindeer Games 6×6 paper pad with the next size in the banner set. I then glued the red banner onto the gold banner and then glued it onto the green card panel.
    2. I then cut out the poinsettia with the new Layered Poinsettia Dies with some gold glitter cardstock using all of the poinsettia dies EXCEPT the larger piece. I wanted a smaller poinsettia, so I chose not to use the largest piece. I then layered the pieces on top of each other adding some foam tape to add some depth. I then cut out the center with the olive green cardstock and added some gold Wink Of Stella to add some sparkle and glued it in the center using some Bearly Art Glue and then glued it onto the upper left side of the banner.
    3. I then cut out the twigs with the Christmas Foliage Dies using olive green cardstock and gold metallic cardstock and adding some gold Wink of Stella. I also cut out the Joy with the new Joy Word w/ Shadow die with red cardstsock and white cardstock, also using the gold Wink of Stella on the red cardstock. I then glued the foliage onto the card panel and popped the Joy on top of the foliage with foam tape.
    4. To complete the look and add some sparkle, I added some Gold Pearl Mix embellishments and then glued the card panel onto a card base.

    I love how this card came out! It has that classic look I was going for and it is so beautiful!! Here is what you need to make this card:

  • Naughty or Nice?

    Happy Friday, crafty friends!  Kim here, and today I am sharing a fun Christmas card, perfect for someone that you just know has landed themself on the Naughty List!  All of the supplies that I used are listed at the end of the post.

    Here is how I made my card:

    I started with an A2 (5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″) card base, scored at 4 1/4″ and burnished the score line.

    I stamped “Naughty” all over the card using Versamark Ink.  If you don’t have a Versamark pad, you can also do tone-on-tone stamping using ink the same color as your cardstock.

    I die-cut “Naughty” from silver cardstock three times, glued them together, and set them aside to dry.

    I heat embossed the sentiment in silver and trimmed it into a banner and backed it with a silver banner.

    I stamped, die-cut, colored and assembled Santa Quokka.

    Assembled the card and finished with a bow of silver metallic thread.

  • Let’s Create an Easy Die-Cut Card

    Let’s Create an Easy Die-Cut Card

    Good morning! This is Kathy with the Creative Crew.  I have an easy die-cut shaker card, using the Autumn Foliage die set from Kat Scrappiness. We will also be using the Small Circle Shaker Kit to create this card and the Simple Sentiments Stamp and Die Bundle. So, let’s create a card!

    The Autumn Foliage die set contains five dies. Today I am using small and large birch leaves in multiple colors. This is easy! Pull out those card stock scraps you have been hoarding and find a color combination that suits you. I chose fall colors. Cut out a BUNCH of these leaves. We will use them to cover the main panel of our card. TO line them up I started with a 3.75″ x 5″ panel of white card stock. I started at the bottom and evenly spaced out the leaves, adhering them with liquid glue.

    Next, let’s work on our shaker element. I chose to die-cut a circle frame that fit the top of my shaker kit. You can simply emboss the top of the kit with gold embossing powder. Then glue down the foam circle directly to your card panel. Add your shaker elements. Carefully glue the acetate to the top frame of the shaker kit, allow it to dry then glue it to the foam piece that contains your shaker elements. These shaker kits allow you to make shaker cards so easily and Kat Scrappiness has loads of them in all sizes and themes.

    I stamped the Simple Sentiments stamp in black ink on white card stock and then cut all of them out with the coordinating die from the bundle. SO EASY! I cut a piece of my gold card stock slightly larger and glued them together. I then, with liquid glue, added that liquid glue on top of the shaker element.

    I added foam tape to the main panel and adhered it to a top folding A2 card base of a coordinating color.

    I hope you enjoy this card and look forward to seeing your creations! Please head over to the Kat Scrappiness shop to get these fabulous products!  Have a wonderful day!

     

  • Santa Define Naughty Shaker Card

    Santa Define Naughty Shaker Card

    Hey crafty friends! Sammi here to share an awesome shaker card made with the Naughty Word die and stamp set! I just love this die and stamp set and I thought it worked perfectly with the Mail Storm Coverplate die as a letter to Santa! Here is how I made this card:

    1. First I cut out the Mail Storm Coverplate out of some 110lb Neenah cardstock and ink blended it with some Distress Oxide inks. I then cut out the largest die from the A2 Frame dies three times and ink blended it with Distress Oxide inks and glued them together with Bearly Art glue. I then cut a piece of cardstock for the background and ink blended it light blue, then glued the A2 frames on it.
    2. I then filled the card panel with Holiday Bliss embellishment mix and glued a piece of acetate on top to lock in the shaker bits. I then glued the Mail Storm Coverplate on top of the acetate.
    3. I then cut out the Naughty word die out three times and glued them together and added some Glossy Accents to add some shine. I then glued it onto the top of the card panel.
    4. I then heat embossed the Santa, Define sentiment onto a teal piece of cardstock with white embossing powder and glued it onto the card base.
    5. The final touch is gluing the card panel onto a card base.

    This was a fun card to make and I love the colors of red and teal together for Christmas! I hope you have been inspired and have a great day!

  • Let’s Create Name Cards for Thanksgiving!

    (AFFILIATE LINKS TO PRODUCTS LISTED BELOW AT NO ADDITIONAL COST TO YOU)

    Hi Friends! Kathy with the Creative Crew sharing some name tags for your Thanksgiving table using the Autumn Foliage die set and the new Simple Sentiments & Die Bundle.  We will get a little messy today but that’s okay because it is worth it in the end!

    First, we are going to smoosh, splatter, and swipe ink.  That’s right just smoosh some water-reactive inks on your work surface, add some water and smoosh your paper in it.  I used watercolor paper as it holds up better.

    Now we will pull out the dies.  The new Autumn Foliage dies from Kat Scrappiness have 5 leaf dies in the set and is perfect for fall!  I decided to use the Maple leaf as it was the ideal size for these name cards.  But use what you want, combine them!

    Aren’t they pretty? Next, I wanted to add a personal touch to the name cards. I used the die from the Simple Sentiments Stamp & Die bundle to cut perfect strips for my names. Then I hand-wrote the name of my guests on each strip.

    Now it is just a matter of adhering these strips to each leaf and adding an embellishment. I chose the Round Gold Pearl mix from Kat Scrappiness. You could also add a paper ring to the leaf to act as a napkin holder! They are so easy to make. If you don’t want to get messy you could cut the leaves from plain or patterned card stock. The new Gobble Gobble paper pad from Kat Scrappiness is adorable!

    I hope you enjoyed this project, they are sure going to brighten up my Thanksgiving table! Make sure you stop by the store to pick up yours today!

  • Happy Spooky Halloween Card!

    Happy Spooky Halloween Card!

    Hey crafty friends! Sammi here to share an awesome Halloween card using the new Spiderweb Backdrop die in my favorite color – PURPLE! I love purple! The new Halloween release has so many FABOLOUS dies and stamps…and that Creepy & Kooky paper pad – AWESOME! I did a little mix match with some older stamps to create this card and I love how it turned out! Here is how I made this card:

    1. I cut out the Spiderweb Backdrop die with some 110 Neenah cardstock and then ink blended it with Distress Oxide inks – I used Wilted Violet. I then added some clear Wink of Stella to add some sparkle. I then cut out the white spider web paper from the Creepy & Kooky paper pad and glued the purple spider web onto the white spider web paper using Bearly Art Glue.
    2. I then cut out the letters for SPOOKY using the new Stitched Uppercase Alphabet dies three time with 110lb Neenah cardstock and glued them together to add dimension. I then cut out the SPOOKY with black glitter cardstock I had in my stash and glued them on top. Using a T-Ruler, I lined up the SPOOKY onto the card panel to make sure that the letters were straight and then glued them onto the card panel using Bearly Art Glue.
    3. I then cut out the larger spider from the Creepy Crawly dies and ink blended him black and added some googly eyes that I had in my stash and popped him onto the card panel dropping down from the word SPOOKY using foam tape. I then added some clear Wink of Stella to add some sparkle to the spider.
    4. I then heat embossed the word Happy from the Hippity Hoppity stamp set and then the work Halloween from the Happy Day stamp set with white embossing powder onto black cardstock and cut them down to strips and popped them onto the cardpanel with foam tape.
    5. I then added some Onyx Black Pearl Mix embellishments to complete the look, and then glued the card panel onto a card base.

    I love this card! It is a very easy card to make and I hope that you got some inspiration from my project! Have a great day and Happy SPOOKY Halloween!!
