Kat Scrappiness Embossed Mini Rope Nested Dies

Don’t Flip Out…

Hey there, Cheryl here…thanks for coming by! I have a card today using one of the BRAND NEW dies from KatScrappiness. Her very own dies! And they’re adorable!!! Check out what I did with the Stitched Dolphin Dies.

I started out by playing with some Distress Oxide Inks in Broken China, Faded Jeans, and Cracked Pistachio and created a watery looking background. I went back and forth numerous times till I got what I was hoping for…never know with water, lol! I then cut the piece with a KS Embossed Large Nested Rope Dies. I arranged the two KS Stitched Dolphin’s Dies where I wanted them and ran through my Big Shot. I added acetate on the back side and created wells to fill with seed beads from my stash. I chose a clear glass color. Then added foam tape and covered over the wells with more acetate. That’s the best way for me to keep them in and line up the card front easier to the card base.

I didn’t want to just throw away the dolphin cut outs, so I cut again with a pearlized ivory colored cardstock and offset them just a bit. I added foam squares to the backs right behind the head and used liquid glue at the tails. It appears they’re jumping off the card front, lol. I offset these enough to see the shaker bits from underneath. I love the sound of shakers as much as seeing the bits shake about, lol. I added a black sticker dot for the eyes.

I then took a piece of the same pearlized cardstock and die cut using the same rope dies only a smaller one. I then lined it back in the die and shifted it to get a square and did a partial die cut. I chose a blue ink to match the background and stamped a sentiment from my stash that I thought fit nicely with the theme of the card. I popped it up with foam squares.

I then went in with some KS Blue Waters Jewels Sequin Mix and the muted silver color from the Sangria Masquerade Sequin Mix and scattered them about. I also added a few drops of Grey Mist Nuvo Jewel Drops here and there to look like water drops. I finished by brushing a bit of Clear Overlay Sparkle Marker by Spectrum Noir to add a bit of glimmer to the dolphins. I then added the entire piece to an A2 size card base of Neenah Solar White in the 110 pound weight.

And that’s it. Hope you like my project and will head over to KatScrappiness and check out the supplies I linked above and find lots more awesome things! Happy shopping and happy crafting!

Unicorn Love…

Cheryl here, with a fun unicorn card. Recently I got some cute stamps of these, a little late to the party, lol. But I’m loving them. Let’s check it out.

I stamped my images with Copic friendly ink, as I knew I’d be coloring them with those markers. Then I loaded them on my Brother Scan N Cut mat and cut them out with a small border. I proceeded to color them up.

I used KatScrappiness Double Stitched Rectangle dies and nested two together to create a frame. I used paper from Lawn Fawn called Watercolor Wishes Petite paper pad, sold in Kat’s store. I added acetate to the back and ran two layers of foam tape around the sides. Chose a variety of sequins to make a shaker card. And then backed it with another piece of acetate. For me, doing that makes it easier to add to the card base, as it’s easy to work it as the sequins are contained. I colored the images and added Spectrum Noir Sparkle brush over the hair and rainbow. I added Ranger Rock Candy Stickles to the clouds for sparkle.

Hard to pick up the sparkle without serious blowout on the acetate. Frustrates me, lol. I attached the shaker element to an A2 card base having added another paper from Lawn Fawn’s Perfectly Plaid Rainbow Petite paper pad. I stamped the sentiment onto another piece of the Watercolor Wishes in green using a gray ink. Cut a flag end and added to the card front. Scattered a few sequins and glued them down.

And that’s about it. I love all the fun bright colors in this paper! It makes for some really pretty cards. I hope you found a bit of inspiration and will get out your supplies and make some time for crafting. Thanks for coming by!

Happy Easter Card and Treat Bag

Hello stampers and crafters! It’s Maria Russell here with you today and I am so thrilled to be back as a design team member for Kat Scrappiness.

Today I have created two projects, showcasing the (recently stocked) Stitched Heart Tag Dies, Stitched Rope Nested Rectangle Dies, Gerda Steiner Brush Bunny stamp set and a bunch of other products available at the shop.

If you haven’t watched the YouTube video tutorial on how I made these treat boxes, I have linked the video below. It is very easy and you can create a decent-size treat bag using these tag dies. They are so versatile you can create a ton of projects with these dies, for any occasion. Here is the video tutorial:

For the treat bag, I started out by die-cutting the tags twice and stamped my images on the tag. I highlighted the rainbow with my white gel pen. Before assembling the treat bag, I die-cut a grass border hills die. It is important to do this step first before assembling the bag.

I stamped my bunny images on Neenah solar white card stock and colored him in with my Copic markers. I adhered my bunny to the treat bag.

Using my favorite Lawn Fawn Tiny Tag Saying stamp set and Tiny Tag Dies, I stamped the sentiment on the tag, and attached it on the treat bag with my pink and white twine. Hear is the treat bag:

For the card, I started out by die-cutting my front panel using the largest of the stitched rope nested rectangle dies. I sponged the “clouds” using my lawn Fawn Clouds Border Dies, with Tim Holtz Broken China distress Ink.

I die-cut another grass border die and adhered it on my front panel. I stamped the eggs on Neenah Solar White card stock and colored them in with my Copic markers. I also used my Sakura Gel pens to add some details to the eggs.

To finish off my design, I adhered all of the stamped images and die-cuts on the front panel of my card. Using a blue card base, I adhered the front panel to my card base using my all-time favorite Xyron Mega Tape Runner. Here is the card:

Here are the two projects:

I hope you got inspired today. Please check out all the new items at Kat Scrappiness online store before they sold out again. The supplies I have used are listed and linked below. Have an amazing day!

Special Delivery

Hey there! Juhi here sharing a fun CAS card. I’ve used the Little Pickup Stamp set from Honey Bee Stamps, Kat Scrappiness Nest Rope Dies, and a bunch of other stuff from the Kat Scrappiness store, scroll to the bottom of this post for the links to all the products.

I started by scoring the front of the cardstock at half inch intervals and inking it up with Salty Ocean Distress Ink using Clarity Stencil Brushes. I added more color at the top to create an ombre effect.

I then cut out a panel of white cardstock with the Kat Scrappiness Square Nested Rope Dies and embossed the heart pattern. I lightly brushed some Candied Apple Distress Ink to the tops of the embossed hearts, again with Clarity Stencil Brushes.

Finally, I stamped the cute little pickup and the hearts from Honey Bee Stamps onto watercolor paper and colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and fussy cut them. I added some Grey Nuvo Jewel drops on the hearts, the tires and the glass pane of the pickup. The jewel drops did crack a bit on drying but I like the effect 🙂

I love how the card turned out, don’t you think the embossed hearts look like dreamy heart shaped clouds?

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

It Would Stink If We Weren’t Friends

Hello and Happy 2017 everyone! This is my first design team post for the year for Kat Scrappiness and today I am sharing a card, showcasing the Little Stinker stamp set by Neat & Tangled, the Stitched-Rope Nested Rectangle dies and a bunch of other supplies available at the shop.

I apologize if I will not have a process video for you today because I still didn’t get my voice back. I have currently have bronchitis, and I am still trying to get rid of this flu. It has been a few weeks now and it is starting to bum me out. Anyway, I have taken some step-by-step photos of my project so I will try and walk you through it.

I started out by stamping the image on Inkadinkado Masking Paper, and fuzzy-cut it with my honeybee scissors. Since this is a one-layer card, I will be using my mask to cover the image.

I die-cut my card panel using the stitched rope nested die on Neenah solar white card stock. I then used my mask to cover the Little Stinker image so I can distress the background with my distress inks. I also cut a mask for my grass hill with the masking paper. I used Spun Sugar and Evergreen bough to distress my background. Once I was satisfied with the color combination, I used my paintbrush to splatter some water on my card panel. Distress ink reacts on water and it really gives a cool effect.

I peeled the mask that was covering the skunk, and started coloring the image with my Copic markers. I used T0, T2 and T4 for my skunk. I also used R00 for the cheeks and the little sign that was being held by the little skunk. I stamped the sentiment on the sign using my Memento Tuxedo black ink.

Since this is a Valentine’s Day card, I felt that I needed to add some hearts. I had an older stamp set from my stash with splattered hearts images and I thought this would be perfect for my card. I used the same mask to cover my skunk again, and stamped the front panel of the card with the heart stamp. It turned out really beautiful!

To finish off the design of the card, and with the help of my favorite tool, the Crystal Katana, I adhered a tiny red heart on the sign, and covered the heart with glossy accents. I love how the card turned out! I hope you love it too and got inspired today.

Here is the final design:

Thank You Word Die + Lawn Fawn

Hi, everyone! I hope you all are having a great start to the new year! Since I received some great gifts for Christmas, I needed some thank you notes! I’m sure you do too! So I decided to break out some of my favorite Lawn Fawn products and pair them with the Kat Scrappiness “Thank You” word die.

This was a super simple card so let’s get right into it. All I did was stamp the branches from Lawn Fawn’s Frosty Fairy Friends stamp set and die cut them out. I didn’t have to color any of the images except for the berries. Then I used a Rope Embossed Circle die from KS to cut some Perfectly Plaid-Fall paper to back my sentiment. I die cut the Thank You 3 times to give it some dimension! Then I used my tape runner to adhere everything to a white card base. I did use a piece of fun foam on the circle to give the card some dimension. To finish it off I added a trio of Holiday Sparkles sequins from Kat Scrappiness.

Thank you for stopping by to check out my quick clean and simple thank yous! These would be great to reproduce multiple times and send all of your friends and family a note of thanks. Happy 2017!

Happy New Year Word Die

Hi, everyone! It’s Kevin here back with another Happy New Year card to share! I absolutely love this word die from Kat Scrappiness. It’s the perfect size to take center stage on any card design, especially for New Year’s since there are not a whole lot of stamp sets designed for this holiday.

I started by cutting out the Happy New Year word die from some gold glitter card stock. Then I used the Rope Embossed Circle Die to cut some black paper. I added some foam behind the circle and added it to a white card base along with a strip of striped paper. Next, I adhered the word die onto the circle then added a pretty hefty sprinkling of Park Avenue sequins along with some gold gel pen dots. This was a super simple card to make but all of the glitter and sequins really make a statement.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great New Year! Here’s a look at the products I used that can all be found at KatScrappiness.com!

Merry Christmoose with more Sparkle

I’m back on the Kat Scrappiness blog with some more sparkle and a Merry Christmoose card. I had to use the Nuvo Glimmer Paste again, I just can’t help it 🙂

This card is a little more settled than my last one, the goofy looking moose from Whipper Snapper Designs deserved a little sparkle though. And what is Christmas without sparkle?! Exactly! This quick video shows you how easy it is to create a cute card with the Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Embossing Powder. The results are super pretty and your craft room doesn’t look like a huge mess afterwards. Enjoy the video and I would love to see your creations using the Nuvo Glimmer Paste!

So Much Sparkle for Santa and his Helper

Hello and welcome to a new card for Kat Scrappiness, using a lot of sparkle and a new to me stamp brand, Nordic Stamps. Santa and his reindeer are just so adorable that they needed a lot of sparkly goodness around them.

To create all this sparkle for Santa and his little helper, I used the new Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Embossing Powder. I just love both of them, for several reasons. First, the glitter is not too much. It’s sparkly, but not blinding. Second, the glitter is containable. You don’t have a huge mess on your craft table afterwards, plus it sticks to the card and doesn’t rub off very easily. I usually don’t like glitter, but this stuff got me 🙂

Anyway, I created two cards using the Nuvo Glimmer Paste and today I’m sharing the first of them. I hope you enjoy my video. In case you want to skip the coloring part, you can jump forward to minute 6:42.
