  • When Black Cats Prowl

    When Black Cats Prowl

    Hello crafty friends, Cheryl here today with a Halloween card. I used one of Kat’s new stamp sets called Toil & Trouble Layered Stamp Set. It’s really cute! So let’s get to it. Simple card today, but kinda vintage looking.

    I stamped out the cute black cat from KS Toil & Trouble Layered Stamp Set using three shades of dark gray to black. I knew I wanted to mount him onto the black die cut image for the cat and also knew I was using a white card base. So I fussy cut him leaving just a tiny bit of white left showing. I then used foam adhesive and adhered it to the die cut. I stamped green eyes for him and added Glossy Accents to make them shine.

    I cut the first layer of patterned paper using the new KS Cross Stitched Rectangle Dies…LOVE!!! Lol, anyway, I also cut a black piece to layer the stamped sentiment on…which I cut using the KS Never Ending Rectangle Dies. While I had the Never Ending dies out I cut a larger piece in white. I layered that over a bright green pattern from a Lawn Fawn pad called Perfectly Plaid Rainbow Petite Paper Pack. I layered all the papers together and then added it to the card base. Finally, I used some liquid glue and placed the cat. I chose some sequins from Sparkling Manhattan Sequin Mix and some from Grandma’s Garden Sequin Mix and glued to the front.

    I then went to finish off the inside of the card. I stamped the middle layer of the cat stamp in a mid gray ink. I then created a layered sentiment with one from the Toil & Trouble Layered Stamp Set. I took a few more of the sequins and glued them to the inside.

    And that’s it for me today. Hope you like my card. Here’s where you can get these supplies, and many more.

  • Boo Luminary

    Boo Luminary

    Hi there everyone! It’s Cheryl again today. I have a fun little Halloween 3D project for you today. I used an svg file and my Cameo to cut it out. The rest is Kat Scrappiness dies.  Hope you like!

    I printed off some digital paper from my stash and then cut out the file using my Silhouette Cameo. I then used KS Never Ending Square dies and KS Fancy Scalloped Stitched Squares. I cut a window into one side using the square die. Then I cut a square using the scalloped dies and centered a smaller square from the Never Ending dies to create a frame for around my window. I put vellum on the backside and then glued the frame around it. I also cut square mats and fancy scallop pieces to create panels for the other three sides. I used foam squares and liquid to glue to attach.

    I then pulled out a stamp that says Boo and cut that using a Lawn Fawn die. I added that with foam squares and then liquid glue to attach to each side. I scattered around some sequins and then put a battery operated tea light inside. I tied it shut with some lime green ribbon.

    I pulled out a dark orange ink pad and did a bit of inking around the edges of the box to cover over any of the white core of the paper. I don’t like to see that, lol.

    So that’s it for me today. You can use any of your digital cutting files and then jazz them up with stamps and dies. It’s the best of both worlds, stamping and dies, and electronic die cutting machines. Who says you can’t do it all, lol!

  • You Are Blessed

    You Are Blessed

    Hey fellow crafters, Cheryl, here today. I have a card to share using some of Kat’s dies in different ways. So, let’s get started.

    To begin, I took one of the new border dies and cut a bunch. I then arranged them on an ivory colored piece of cardstock, rotating them to create a fun pattern. I filled the entire piece this way. Then I took a rectangle die and cut that entire piece with pretty stitching all around.

    I then chose three colors of cardstock and die cut two sizes of the scalloped circles and inked the edges. I wanted to create flowers using these die cuts and this is how I did it. Cut a wedge out of each, add some liquid glue, overlap the edges, and hold till dry.

    I then used hot glue to add the smaller flower to the center of the larger one. After doing them all, I added liquid glue and tiny glass beads to create flower centers. For the smaller blue flower, I kept one die cut as is and only cupped one, and then glued it to the flat one.

    To create the leaves, I used a stencil and Distress Oxide Ink and ink blended the leaf pattern. I then used scissors and fussy cut a small piece to get the leaves for the flowers. I arranged them on the card panel and glued with liquid glue. I then used hot glue again and placed the flowers over the leaves.

    I used one of Kat’s word dies and cut four, stacked them using liquid glue to create the sentiment. I chose a stamp set to get the sub-sentiment, “You are”, and stamped in black and cut a flag end. I added foam tape and arranged both to the card panel and adhered in place. I finished off the “Blessed” by putting Glossy Accents on top.

    I added some liquid Nuvo drops and a few black sequins to finish of the panel. I then added the entire piece to an A2 card base. I hope my project gives you some ideas to use your dies in a little different way. Obviously, this probably isn’t a card you would be able to mail, unless in a small box or in a box with the gift. Or hand deliver with some treats or a present. You could also create some of these flowers using the larger dies and create a home decor piece and frame it to hang.

  • Lola the Giraffe slider card with Angeline

    Lola the Giraffe slider card with Angeline

    Hi there! Angeline here to share with you a slider card I made featuring our very cute Lola the Giraffe.

    Lola is just so adorable, and the sentiments are just fun in this stamp set! I took the sentiment and curved it along the slider element that I made using a stamping platform. You can use the Tim Holtz stamping platform that Kat has in her store. You can take any straight stamps and curve it up! How fun is that?

    I created the slider element using Lawn Fawn Slide on Over dies. This die set is fun coz it has so many shapes that you can choose from! Just put a penny behind the slider piece and attach it to Lola — and she can move!

    I also used lots of pretty Kat Scrappiness sequin mixes [Pink Bugle Beads and Neon Barbie]. I seriously cannot get over how PRETTY her sequins are!

    And, for the background piece, I used the Foilable Pattern papers by Creative Vision Stamps and Thermoweb Decofoil [Summer Rainbow]  — and ran it through my Heidi Swapp minc machine to get the beautiful foiled pattern! Don’t you think it’s so pretty?

    Here is the list of supplies I used to make this card. For all the supplies linked, you can get it from Kat Scrappiness store. Do remember to use my code “Angeline10” to get 10% off your order! Happy shopping.

  • Are You Kidding Me…

    Are You Kidding Me…

    Hi everyone! It’s me, Cheryl, here with another card post to share. Hope you are enjoying your Summer and the bit that remains. My grands start Kindergarten this week, can’t believe it!!! Anyway, let’s get to it.

    Kathleen has come out with some super cute dies this past month, and I’ll be showcasing several in this card.

    I started out by die cutting the largest of the square Postage Stamp dies from a scrap of woodgrain paper in my stash. I then used one of the Never Ending Square dies to cut a window in the center. I adhered acetate on the back side and a double layer of foam tape to create a shaker window. I added some sequins, Sunkissed Sequin Mix, Lucky Charms Sequin Mix, and Teal Woodgrain Sequins. I then cut a square of patterned paper to close off the backside. The papers I used come from Doodlebug’s Flea Market 6×6 paper pad. I die cut the elements for the Cute Layered Owl Die and assembled it. I cut the Stitched Nesting Flower Pot die from a scrap of textured cardstock by American Crafts. And I also cut the pieces from the Sign Post Die Set in the same woodgrain paper.

    I chose my sentiments from a Gerda Steiner stamp set called Moody Unicorns. I LOVE this stamp set, it’s adorable!!! I stamped in clear sticky ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Also, for the flower pot, I cut an extra one and trimmed off just the top rim and added it with foam tape. Also inked the edges a bit.

    So, for assembly I attached the owl as though he were coming out of the flower pot and trimmed off what showed. I attached it to the front of the shaker window with foam tape as well. Then I positioned the sign post and added it with foam tape. I pulled out some twine and taped it to the backside and tied a bow to make the entire piece resemble a sign. I cut a piece of patterned paper and attached it to the front of an A2 sized card base and then attached the entire shaker element to that. For the final slat from the sign post, I used foam tape and adhered it to the top right of the card. I chose a few of the sequins and scattered them around the card front and glued in place. I also added Glossy Accents to the eyes of the owl and set aside to dry completely.

    And there you have it. My finished card for today. I will include the items used and link them to Kat’s store. I hope you are inspired to combine lots of different sets into one project. It’s fun to mix and match! Happy crafting!

  • Magical Fairy card with Angeline

    Magical Fairy card with Angeline

    Hey there! Angeline here to share with you a card I made using the super adorable Lawn Fawn Fairy Friends stamp set. This is also my first ever Lawn Fawn set I have and had so much fun making this card!

    For the background of my card, I inked it up using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink [Worn Lipstick] then sprinkled some water on it to get the oxide look.

    Then, it’s time for some “magical” elements!

    I stamped the fairy and her magical wand together, before fussy cutting it out. You can easily stamp this using a stamping platform like the Tim Holtz Tonic Stamp Platform that Kat has in her store. Notice that I stamped the sentiment in a curve too? Yups, I used the stamping platform ! 🙂 Then for the heart trailing behind her, I used Lawn Fawn Stitched Trails die. Super in love with this die!

    For the clouds, I used Lawn Fawn’s Puffy Cloud Border die and cute out some cute Crate Paper “Little You” patterned papers. I added lots of Kat Scrappiness sequins [Brilliant Blush & Sparkling clear solid confetti 4mm/6mm]. Just adds to the card with some pretty sequins! 🙂

  • One-layer Thank you Card with Angeline

    One-layer Thank you Card with Angeline

    YAY! It is almost the weekend. Angeline here to share with you a one layer card I made using the Hero Arts Thank You Messages stamp set. Sometimes, all you need is a quick card and since this set has so many beautiful Thank You sentiments, I thought — why not stamp all of them on my card and create a rainbow?

    So, that is just what I did using a stamping platform. Kat has the Tim Holtz stamping platform in the store, which is perfect for this kinda card. What’s great about having a stamping platform is, you can place your stamps first before inking them up, to see where each stamp will go. Then, grab your inks (I am using Altenew dye inks) and ink away! Missed a spot? No problem! You can stamp over and over again with a stamping platform.

    And to add some bling to the card, I used a mix of Kat Scrappiness Sequins. Kat has sooooo many colors in her store, you can grab a few, mix it up and create your own shades of sequins!

    Here is the list of supplies I used to make this card. For all the supplies linked, you can get it from Kat Scrappiness store. Do remember to use my code “Angeline10” to get 10% off your order! Happy shopping.

  • Unforgettable Birthday….

    Unforgettable Birthday….

    Hello again, Cheryl here today. I had a lot of fun playing with another of KatScrappiness dies that was just released. I hope you’ll like what I came up with. So here we go!

    I started by picking out the green patterned paper. I pulled out a stencil from Echo Park called Birthday Candles Stencil.  I have a jar of translucent embossing paste. I laid down the stencil on the paper and used low tack tape to secure, then spread on the paste. Gives a super fun shine and dimension to the paper. I love it! I then cut it using one of KS Stitched Fancy Scalloped Circle dies. I layered that on a circle cut with a KS Double Stitched Circle die. Next I cut the KS Seal from KS Seal with Ball Scene Die Set in grey cardstock and inked the edges.  I used clear embossing powder and did several layers over top to give the seal a wet look. Love how it turned out!

    Next I cut the beach ball from the same die set and used a few different colors. I brushed on a bit of sparkle with my Clear Overlay Sparkle Marker. I layered it onto a grey circle. Added a sticker for the seals eye and tied on some cute twine. I also used a stamp from KS Interactive Card Instructions stamp set, trimmed it out, and added to the edge of the beach ball. Attached a Mini Action Wobbler to the bottom. Scattered a few sequins from KS Neon Summer Sequin Mix and stars from Rose Sparkle Glitter Sequin Mix  and then set this element aside.

    I picked out a patterned paper from Lawn Fawn’s Perfectly Plaid Rainbow Paper Pad and cut it with a  KS Double Stitched Rectangle Die. I added that to an A2 sized card base. I pulled out two Lawn Fawn stamp sets. Wild For You and Elphie Selfie stamp sets to stamp my sentiment. I did part on a turquoise strip and part on velum. I wrapped the edges of the velum around and taped on the backside. And I added the turquoise strip with foam tape. I then finished off the card by adding on the main element right to the front with liquid glue. It hung over a bit and I trimmed off the overhang.

    And that’s it. I think it turned out nice. I love how the beach ball “wobbles” on top of the seals nose. Like he’s playing with it and having fun. I hope you got a bit of inspiration today and will pull out your supplies. And should you need any new things or want to purchase what I’ve used, head to the Kat Scrappiness Store and check out her inventory. A great place to shop, for sure!
