  • A Perk UP Coffee Card

    A Perk UP Coffee Card

    Hello friends!! Nora on the blog today with a card using some of the NEW Kat Scrappiness Perk Up release to create a fun coffee card. I am not a coffee drinker but I LOVE this new release and knew I had to use it for my blog post.

    Below is how I created this card:

    • Using the Deco Frames Nesting Dies, die cut a piece of kraft cardstock and adhere it over a top folding, white, card base.
    • Cut a piece of the Kat Scrappiness Perk Up 6×8 Paper Pad into a 4″ by 5 1/4″ and adhere over the kraft cardstock.
    • Die cut the coffee cup out of a piece of the Perk Up pattern paper using the Cuppa Love Shaker Dies and adhere over the coffee bean paper.
    • Die cut the spoon from the Cuppa Love Shaker Dies out of silver paper. Adhere over the coffee cup as shown.

    • Using the new Cuppa Love 6×8 Paper Pad and the heart from the new Rise and Shine Coffee Background die, die cut a heart. Adhere to the card, using foam tape to give the center of the heart some dimension.
    • Stamp the sentiment using the Perk Up stamp set onto white cardstock and cut it out using the Perk Up Coordinating Dies. Using the same sentiment die, die cut three more out of white cardstock and adhere the panels together, with the stamped sentiment on the top. Adhere this over the front of the coffee cup.

    The last step is to adhere pearls from various sizes using the Kat Scrappiness Coffee Pearl Mix. Your card is finished!!!

  • BOO-tiful Halloween Card

    BOO-tiful Halloween Card

    Hello, it’s Kathy with the Creative Crew and I have a new card for you featuring the BOO Word & Shadow Die.  Sometimes the perfect font can just make the card.  I LOVE the font of this die and it makes the perfect focal point for your Halloween cards.  This card was super easy to make so let’s get started!

    Card Details

    • Cut and score a top-folding A2 card base
    • Using the Creepy Kooky 6 x 6 Paper Pad select one of the fabulous papers. Cut a panel to 3.75″ x 5″.
    • Tape the Boo shadow die and word together, positon this where you want your sentiment and die-cut.  Save the INSIDES of the letters. Also, use these dies to cut from a specialty card stock.  I used a silver glitter card stock. Remove the silver letters, and keep the shadow.
    • Die-cut the word from black card stock.
    • Center your main panel and adhere to the main card base with TEMPORARY tape. Put a small outline of glue inside the shadow cut out and then inlay the silver outline.  Remove the main card panel and set it aside.
    • Now glue the black letters and those tiny centerpieces you saved.
    • Do anything you want to your patterned paper.  I blended Distress Oxide Black Soot around all edges and the cut-out.
    • I then used some Distress Mica Spray (Fortune Teller) and splattered this all over.
    • Then I pulled out all of the bats from the new Going Batty embellishment mix.  I added foam tape to the back of most of the bats and adhered them to the card.  I then added foam to the back of the main panel, positioned it over the sentiment, and adhered to it.
    • Finally, I added shimmer pen to the word BOO.  You can’t really see it in the pictures but it adds a little more sparkle.

    I hope you enjoyed today’s card.  Most products are linked below.  Please browse the blog for a bit and see all of the new designs from the Creative Crew.  Don’t forget to shop the NEW RELEASE and have a fabulous Halloween!

  • Candy Corn Halloween Card

    Candy Corn Halloween Card

    Hello crafty friends! Sammi here to show you how to make this super easy and quick card using the amazing Creepy & Kooky 6×6 paper pad from Kat Scrappiness! I just love this paper! It is perfect for making quick Halloween cards and I am going to show you how to make this super cool card! Here is what you do:

    1. First I cut put a piece of cardstock with the Mini Slimline Lattice Frame Die and I ink blended it black. You can also just cut it out in black cardstock, but I was not sure of the color I was going with, so I ink blended it.
    2. Then I cut a piece of the black candy corn paper the size of the mini slimline piece and glued the black Lattice Frame piece onto the candy corn paper piece using Bearly Art glue. I then cut a piece of the orange candy corn paper the same size of the middle of the Lattice Frame piece and popped it onto the card panel using foam tape.
    3. I then cut out the spiderweb border in black cardstock using the Halloween Border dies and glued the border onto the orange candy corn panel using Bearly Art glue.
    4. Using the Happy Halloween w/ shadow die, I cut out the shadow in black cardstock and the Happy Halloween sentiment in white cardstock. I then ink blended the sentiment in black and orange distress ink and then added some Glossy Accents to give it some shine. After the Glossy Accents was dry, I glued the seniment onto the shadow and then popped it up on the card pane using more foam tape.
    5. I wanted to add the little spider from the Creepy Crawly dies, so I cut him out in black cardstock and glued him onto the card panel coming down from the spiderweb. I then added some Onyx Black Pearl Mix embellishments to finish the look.
    6. I then glued the card panel onto a mini slimline card base and I was done!

    This is such a fun, cool and easy card to make! The Creepy & Kooky paper pad is so much fun to work with and you can make some amazing projects with it. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

  • Happy Halloween Shaker Card

    Happy Halloween Shaker Card

    Hi Crafty friends! Sammi here to share a card I made with the new Creepy & Kooky 6×6 cardstock along with some awesome Halloween dies from Kat Scrappiness. Have you checked out all of the Halloween shaker mixes that Kat Scrappiness has in stock? WOW is what comes to mind when I look at all of the Halloween goodies! You must go check it out!

    For my card today, I wanted to use some of the Halloween shaker mixes so I decided to make a shaker card! Here is how I made my card:

    1. I cut out a piece of black cardstock sized 4.25″x5.5″ and then glued the white webbed cardstock from the Creepy & Kooky cardstock using Bearly Art glue and then set it aside.
    2. Using the A2 Frame dies, I created my shaker piece by cutting out the frame 6 times and gluing the pieces together to add dimension, adding acetate before gluing the top piece. I ink blended the top piece purple using Distress Ink before gluing it down on top. I then created a cloud background using the Slimline Stitched Cloud Border die (I used it as a stencil) and ink blended the green and purple using distress ink. Before I glued the framed piece onto the cloud background, I added some BOO-TACULAR Sequin Mix and then glue the piece together making my shaker piece.
    3. Using the Creep Crawly dies, I cut out the circle web and larger spider, then glued them onto the corner of the shaker piece with the spider hanging down. I then cut out some ghosts using the Boo-gy Ghosts dies and edged them with Distress Ink and added them to the shaker piece. I then cut out the Happy Halloween w/ shadow die three times and glued them on top of each other to add dimension and then ink blended the top with Distress Ink. I then glued the sentiment onto the shaker piece.
    4. I then glued the shaker piece onto the prepared card panel from step #1 and then added some Lime Green Jewel Mix to add some bling.
    5. I then glued the card pane onto a card base.

    That’s it! I just love shaker cards! I hope you have enjoyed my card and have a great day!

    Let’s Make A Summer Card with New Dies from Kat Scrappiness!

    (affiliate links to most products are provided below at no additional cost to you)

    Good Morning, I am up on the Kat Scrappiness blog today with some more inspiration for you. Today we are going to do some paper piecing with the A2 Waterside Die and the Summer Essentials die set. The only ink you will need is black pigment ink for the sentiment! These dies make it easy to create fun cards for the summer! So let’s make a card!

    Card Supplies

    Card Details

    • Cut, score, and fold an A2 top-folding card base.
    • Cut a white panel to 4.25″ x 5.5″ (you can use a lighter weight card stock for this.)
    • Select some solid colors from the Summer Vibes paper pack.
    • Die-cut 1 completely white panel with the A2 Waterside Die.
    • Die-cut one completely turquoise panel for the frame and the water pieces.
    • Cut the sky area from the yellow color paper.
    • I cut the palm tree and the sun a few more times, from some white scraps as I will be layering them.
    • Using the Summer Fun Essentials dies cut out your flip-flops from colored card stock. I also ran my flip-flops through my die-cutting machine with an embossing folder for a bit of texture.
    • Glue your palm trees together and your suns together with Bearly Arts Precision glue or another liquid adhesive.
    • Then I inked the sun and palm tree with Versamark embossing ink and covered it with clear embossing powder and heat embossed.
    • Next, glue the flip-flop pieces together.
    • Now adhere all your puzzle pieces on top of the white 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel we cut earlier.
    • Put the panel in your MISTI stamping platform and stamp your sentiment. I also heat embossed the sentiment with clear powder.
    • Adhere to your frame and your stacked palm tree and sun. Add foam tape to the back of the flip-flops and adhere.
    • Toss on a couple of the Aqua AB Jewels and the card is done.

    You can create so many color combinations with these dies. You can even throw in some of the fabulous patterned paper. This is an easy card to create.

  • Enjoy the Waves – “Mixed Media” Summer Card

    Enjoy the Waves – “Mixed Media” Summer Card

    Happy Friday Crafty Friends! Priscilla here from the Kat Scrappiness Design Team. As we coast into Labor Day Weekend, I am sharing a “last hurrah to summer” mixed-media card, complete with floral patterned flip-flops, a REAL sandy beach, and 3-D waves crashing into the shore. Indeed life’s a beach . . . life is good.

    To make today’s card, I used the Kat Scrappiness Summer Fun Essentials die collection and a sentiment from the the Summer Gnome Add-On Stamp Set.

    Card Details:

    • Created an A2 top-folding white card base.
    • On a die cut layer of watercolor cardstock, I painted the “ocean” with “Uncharted Mariner” Distress Paint
    • To create the “beach,” I mixed real sand with “Vintage Photo” Distress Paint and applied a thick coating of this mixture on the bottom portion of the card.

    • Die cut a pair of flip-flops using the Summer Fun Essentials die collection out of floral paper and backed them with two layers of brown cardstock for added dimension.
    • To create the crashing waves, I painted white “puffy paint” along the shore and heated it with with a blow dryer to create some added dimension.
    • Heat embossed the sentiment “Life’s a Beach, Enjoy the Waves” from the Summer Gnome Add-On Stamp Setwith navy embossing powder and added it to the top of the card.
    • Adhered three star fish embellishments for the finishing touch.
