  • Wedding Heart | Love | Shaker Card

    Wedding Heart | Love | Shaker Card

    Hello KS Friends!!

    Sheri here with a festive Wedding card featuring the NEW Wedding Heart Shaker Card Kit! If you missed the Shake It Up Release this past weekend you can find the full release HERE.

    31 NEW Shaker Card Kits were added to the store and can be found HERE.  The shaker kits are super easy to assemble and just need to be filed with shaker bits of your choice.

    Steps to Create Card:

    • Create 5″ x 5″ Square Card Base (5″ x 10″, scored at 5″).
    • Cut Silver Mat: 4 3/4″ x 4 3/4″.
    • Cut White Panel: 4 5/8″ x 4 5/8″. Next you can emboss with a favorite embossing folder of your choice or create a faux embossed background like I did. To create a faux embossed background, I cut out approximately 16 hearts (smallest heart from the Layering Nested Hearts die set). I then glued them randomly on my panel.
    • Assemble the White Panel to the Silver Mat and attach it to your white card base.
    • Assemble Wedding Heart Shaker. First I painted the heart with white acrylic paint and to add a bit of shine I did emboss twice with white embossing powder, next I attached the foam heart to my card panel, filled with shaker bits, attached Acetate heart to Wood Heart and then glued it to the foam heart. I used a combination of 1/8″ double sided tape and liquid glue. My shaker is not going anywhere.
    • For a sentiment I added the word “Love” die cut in silver card stock from the Love You w/Shadow die. The sentiment is cut out twice and stacked and glued directly to the bottom of the bridal couple.

    Here’s a list of the supplies I used from the store.

  • Melted Metal Heart Valentine | Layered Heat Embossing

    Melted Metal Heart Valentine | Layered Heat Embossing

    Hello crafty friends!

    It’s Alicia a.k.a. Crafty Al here to share a look at the quick and easy card that I created for Valentine’s Day using some of the new products from Kat Scrappiness.

    I created a piece of custom cardstock by double heat embossing it using Versamark and Detail Gold embossing powder. These pieces then got cut using the melting / frosting die from the Scoop of Love die set and the word die from the Love You Sentiment with Shadow die set.

    The “melted metal” top got placed onto the solid heart from the Scoop of Love die set and this piece was adhered with foam tape to the card base which already had a piece cut using the Stitched Hearts Coverplate die. I added the sentiment with help from some press-n-seal and then decorated with red and pink hearts from the My Valentine enamel dots.

    You can check out my video for the full process…

    Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed today’s card!

  • See Through Shaker Valentine’s Day Card

    See Through Shaker Valentine’s Day Card

    Hello crafty friends!

    It’s Alicia a.k.a. Crafty Al here to share a look at the see through shaker card that I created for Valentine’s Day using some of the new products from Kat Scrappiness.

    I used the largest heart from the Hearts of Love Shaker Card die set to cut a window in the turquoise cardstock and the card base. For added texture on the turquoise piece I used the NEW Stitched Hearts Coverplate die – I just love the subtle stitched effect it gives.

    To create the see-through shaker, I sandwiched some of the NEW Light Turquoise Pearl Mix between 2 scraps of acetate. The silver foil heart on the front was cut with the same heart as the opening. To finish it off, I stamped a greeting for the front and inside from the Valentine Quokkas stamp set.

    “Love” Mini Slimline Shaker

    Hello Friends!

    Sheri here today with a Valentine Shaker card idea! I don’t know about you but I’m totally ready to start creating some Valentine themed projects!

    For today’s card I pulled out a bunch of my favorite Kat Scrappiness dies and came up with this fun shaker card. It was super easy to create!


    Steps to Create Card:

    • Create a mini slimline card base using red card stock measuring 3 1/2″ x 6″ (7″ x 6″, scored at 3 1/2″ on 7″ side).
    • Cut out the largest die in the Mini Slimline Scalloped Edge die set using white card stock. Panel measures 3 1/8″ x 5 5/8″.
    • Cut Red Mat measuring 2 13/16″ x 5 3/8″.
    • Cut out the Mini Slimline Heart Panel with red card stock.
    • Trim a piece of acetate to fit under the Mini Slimline Heart Panel. Approximate size 2 5/8″ x 5 1/4″.
    • Cut out 2 hearts from the Layering Nested Hearts die set using white card stock (I stacked them to add a little dimension).
    • Cut out 3 “Love” from the I Love You Shadow die set (1 red mirror card stock and 2 white card stock and stack them for dimension)
    • For shaker filler I used a combination of 50 Shades of Red and Red Heart Sprinkles.

  • Quick and Easy Love You Card

    Quick and Easy Love You Card

    Hello card making friends,

    Wanted to share my colorful Valentine card with you today. This is a quick and easy card great for mass production.

    I started by cutting 1/4 inch pieces of various patterned paper. These pieces I attached to an A-2 layer 2 piece of cardstock.

    Next I cut a Neenah white layer 1. Then using the Kat Scrappiness Large Alphabet Dies I die cut love into the center of the layer.

    The layer 1 was attached to the stripped layer allowing the colors to show through.

    I die cut the word “you” out of pink card stock and added some pink hearts. I then added a thin black frame. Finally I put the layers onto a matching pink card base.

  • Belated Father’s Day Waffle!

    Belated Father’s Day Waffle!

    Hi Friends! kel here today to share a fun card for a special somebody!! I gave it to the hubs for Father’s Day last week so I can share it now. =o)

    I used a whole bunch of dies on this card, including the brand new Stitched Scallop Circle dies to make my card (I used the 3rd and 4th largest circle dies). I also used the Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle dies on my polka-dot layer in the back, and the widest Stitched Fishtail Banner Die to stamp my sentiment on. I was lucky that it worked out that the sentiment fit so perfectly on that die!!

    I used the Waffle Lot Stamp Set by Technique Tuesday for this card for the hubs because our middle child has been on a waffle kick recently… We’ve been eating homemade belgian waffles just about weekly!! And for Father’s day, the boys surprised him by making him a Father’s Day breakfast complete with waffles and his favorite breakfast foods! So I thought that this card would have been perfect!!

    I just love that the Stitched Scallop Circle dies are nested far apart enough that you can still see the stitching on the bottom layer!! And I fussy cut the hearts out… phew. That’s all I can say about this little things! haha! The sentiment is stamped in this beautifully rich walnut ink and the hearts and waffle were stamped with my trusty Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then hand colored. The Stitched Fishtail Banner, waffle, and hearts are all popped up on some 3D dots/strips for a little extra oomph!!

    Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon! Don’t forget to take part in our awesome monthly challenge for your chance to win a $25 Gift Card!!

  • Happy Heart Day!

    Hi Everyone!

    Today I have a card featuring the versatile Large Alphabet Dies by Kat Scrappiness.

     

    The letters make such a nice focal point, I wanted to attach a few together to make an almost chipboard-like embellishment.  I first adhered black “fun foam” to the backs of 2 Xs and 2 Os using liquid adhesive.  This not only gives more thickness, but also gives a nice shadow effect.  You could use other colors as well and those would look great too!

    I then clustered the Xs and Os together so they fit nicely, adhering them with flat glue dots.  This bold embellishment would be really great on a scrapbook page too!

    I’ve been in love with Lawn Fawn’s new How You Bean?-Conversation Hearts Add-On stamp set.  The little hearts are so fun to color with Copics!  This time, I went with bright colors to offset the black and white of the letters.

    After laying out my design, I wanted to stamp a few of the open hearts and a sentiment directly on my card.  I used my Tim Holtz Tonic Stamp Platform to be sure I got everything straight and close enough together.  For a graphic card like this, being precise is very important for the look.

    Copics tend to show through cardstock if you color directly on it, so my remedy for that is cute patterned paper.  I took a strip of paper from Lawn Fawn’s Perfectly Plaid Rainbow Petit Paper Pack and added it to the inside of the card where the Copics ran through.  The paper coordinates with the front of the card and adds a cute detail to the inside.

    Thanks for joining me today!  I hope you’ll try this clustering technique with your letter dies.  It’s a fun way to make a bold statement on the front of your card.  All the supplies from the Kat Scrappiness shop are linked below.  Be sure to use my coupon code Heidi10 to receive 10% off your purchase.

  • More Chocolate Lover’s Card Kit Projects From Heidi

    More Chocolate Lover’s Card Kit Projects From Heidi

    Hi Everyone!

    I have a few more cards from the Kat Scrappiness Chocolate Lover’s Card Kit to show you today, along with a video.  Unfortunately, the kit is sold out, but good news–the Layered Chocolate Bar stamp set and the “Sweet” sentiment die will be available for purchase separately in the shop very soon.  I’ve had so much fun working with this kit!    You can see my previous projects here and here.

    I stamped 4 of the chocolate bars for this card (no wrappers) and cut out the little squares.  I got about 4 squares from each bar and I love the way this turned out.

    I attached the glitter washi tape from the kit to a strip of cardstock to line the bottom of the card.  The gold on that tape is just a perfect shade of shimmery goodness!

    For this card, I added a shaker element using the negative cut of the word die.

    I put a strip of white cardstock where I poured the sequins so they would stand out underneath.

    I used a Copic marker to change the color of the wood hearts.  These were one of my favorite embellishments in the kit.  The little hearts are such a nice shape.

    Can you tell I like the Wonky Wavy Stitched Heart die?  I cut a bunch of the smallest heart from the berry colored cardstock that came with the kit to highlight one of the die cuts.

    I decided to create an old-fashioned valentine with the largest Wonky Wavy Stitched Heart die.

    I shaped the card by placing the die cut a little over and a little under the folded part of a pink notecard to create the seam.

    I decorated the inside with a die cut from the pack included in the kit.

    For this card, I used a the gingham heart that was left from a previous project and popped it up with fun foam.  Another heart from the die cut pack fit perfectly inside.

    Finally, I did a fun interactive card for a gift.

    You can use the chocolate bar to slide the panel open to reveal the gift card.  I also added a little die cut tab on the other side for another way to slide it.

    I have a video below showing you how I put this card together.  Enjoy, and thanks for joining me today!  Feel free to use my coupon code: Heidi10 to take 10% off your purchase in the Kat Scrappiness shop.
