Hi it’s Lisa from Oh So Cute By Lisa and I am up on the blog today featuring a slimline card using the brand new Wonky Stitched Nesting Slimline Dies. The new release over at Kat Scrappiness brought with it quite a few new slimline dies to really dress up your slimline cards! These new dies include the Stitched Slimline Wave Die that is the perfect size for slimline cards and lets you add waves to your cards with a fun stitched edge.

Here is the card recipe:

1. I started with some vellum and swiped 2 different colors of Distress Oxide Ink across the paper in no real pattern. I used Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon. I splattered some water over the paper and blotted it off with a paper towel to give it the look of water.

2. After the panel was dry I die cut 2 dolphins using the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Dolphin Dies. I also wanted the waves to be cut from the same panel so I used the Wonky Stitched Nesting Slimline Dies and the Stitched Slimline Wave Die to cut out 3 panels that would fit the slimline panel from side to side and also have the stitched edging like the rest of the card. As you can see in this picture I also cut out the top panel of the slimline card in white card stock using the Wonky Stitched Nesting Slimline Dies

3. Once the vellum pieces were cut it was time to prepare the large white panel. I decided to do some stenciling and give the background some clouds. I used a cloud stencil and a blending foam to stencil on some clouds with blue ink. I just love the look of those big puffy clouds.

4. Once the clouds were done I added the sentiment using some green ink. After I adhered the dolphins to the panel I stamped some water splashes using the same green ink to match the sentiment. I also included a cute little sun die cut with a fun stamped face.

5. It was time to put everything together so I adhered my 3 vellum wave panels to the bottom of the white panel using double sided tape at the bottom of the waves so they would look 3-D on the card.

The whole panel was adhered using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive to a piece of mint card stock measuring 8.5″ x 3.5″. For some extra watery fun I added a bunch of Kat Scrappiness Sparkling Clear Droplets. They also look great around cards in photographs (added bonus)!

Here is one more look at the whole card. I really enjoyed putting this card together!

What’s Up, Gnomie?

If you haven’t seen the newest Kat Scrappiness Release, you’re in for a real treat! Today I’m sharing a few projects featuring a couple of the newest goodies…

Summer Gnome Stamp Set

Summer Gnome Add-on Stamp Set

For my first card above, I cut yellow cardstock with one of the Stitched Scallop Nesting Slimline Dies then light blue cardstock with one of the Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies. To create the scene, I cut some thin cork to look like sand, cut blue cardstock with one of the Waves Border Dies then colored and cut out the adorable images from the Summer Gnome set. For the sun, I used one of the shaker shapes in the Two Small Splat Star Shaker Card Kit and colored the sun with marker and filled the shaker with Yellow Party Confetti.

Here’s another scene created on an A2 cardbase using the Summer Gnome Stamp Set, Summer Gnome Add-on Stamp Set and the Waves Border Dies.

And lastly in case you missed it, I created this card for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog hop using Summer Gnome Stamp Set, the starfish from the Summer Gnome Add-on Stamp Set and Layered Coffee Cup Die.

A bite of everything

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia here to share a bite of everything new at Kat Scrappiness. The last weekend was the official release and you have to see all the new things. Let me start with the Slimlines Nesting Dies.

Actually, Kat Scrappiness has two different and beautiful designs. One is the Stitched Scalloped Nesting that includes 4 nesting dies in different sizes. With that I die cut the top layer of my above card. I used the third layer size. Additionally, these sizes work perfectly with the Embossed Edge Nesting Designs. On my card, I used the larger embossed edge.

Details: To decorate my card, I used one of my favorites stamp sets from Kat Scrappines, Stewart the Sloth in combination with one image from the Coffee Quotes stamp set from Joy Clair Designs, available at Kat Scrappiness.

My second card of today is using the new designs for Shaker Card Kits. This is a real all in one product. I used the Onesie Shaker Card Kit and like it come in natural colors. I just colored the top layer with a Blue Marker and then inked with VersaMark Ink to emboss with Baby Blue Embossing Powder from WOW.

I followed the clear instructions included on the package to create the shaker. I put inside two different types of sprinkles. I used the new Light Blue Confetti Sprinkles with the 3mm Mirrored Clear Hollow Stars. Additionally, I stamped a sentiment form the Oh Baby stamp set by Joy Clair and splattered some drops of gold ink. My final touch, the tiny bow that I made with the Bow die included on the Crafters Essentials Easter Edition.

The last card is using the new Koala-ty Time from Kat Scrappiness. It is simply adorable and I created a two tone background using one of the branches included on the set. Then, I die cut one zig zag stitched rectangle die piece of watercolor paper and colored it with a paint brush keeping the frame in natural color.

In a separate piece of white card stock, I stamped the two Koalas and colored them with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir. Additionally, I fussy cut the images with scissors and pasted over the decorated layer with crafty foam tape.

I hope you enjoyed this bite of everything that I love from Kat Scrappiness and see you soon with more inspiration.

Hello, My Crafty Friend

Hello, my crafty friends! Life as we’ve known it has certainly changed. Thankfully, our desire to create stays the same and hopefully, you’ve had some time to craft!

See something exciting? The NEW, Kat Scrappiness SLIMLINE DIES are here!! For my card, I first used one of the new Stitched Scallop Nesting Slimline Dies and cut navy cardstock. Using the Concord & 9th Crafty Turnabout stamp, I inked up the images on white cardstock then cut it using one of the Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies.

To create a ‘subtle’ background, I cut vellum with one of the
Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies and layered it over the stamped image. The words were created with Kat Scrappiness Scripty “Hello My Crafty Friend” word dies! How fun is that!

To add a touch of embellishment, I used Blue Heart Droplets, because I ran out of one of my favorites…Sparkling Clear Heart Droplets!

Quarantine Cards | Stockpile Your Essentials!

Hi Everyone, it’s Priscilla here. Today I have two cards that acknowledge the difficult times we are experiencing during this “Stay-at-Home” pandemic order, but with a bit of humor. Because God knows, we could use a little of that amongst the stress and hardship we are all experiencing.

My first card pays homage to my new-found nightly treat – wine! Unlike toilet paper, there’s no shortage of it on the groceries shelves yet, but if I continue my stockpiling of it, there may be! LOL!

This card features the Kat Scrappiness “Wine Not” sentiment stamp and die set. Such a fun set to create with! The sentiment was custom crafted on my computer; something I like to do occasionally when I need that perfect sentiment! I used one of Kat’s brand new “Embossing Edge Nesting Slimline Dies” as the card base.

My second card focuses on . . . what else – chocolate, the greatest stress reliever!

I used the Kat Scrappiness “Layered Chocolate Bar” stamp set to make this card. The set provides the three layers you need to make the chocolate bar and the foil wrapper. Once again, I crafted a perfect sentiment on my computer and die cut it out using one of Kat‘s “Stitched Fishtail Banner Dies.” The finishing touch was a chocolate heart from Kat’s “More S’mores Sprinkles.”

Thank you so much for stopping by! Don’t forget to check out what’s NEW in Kat’s Shop, and follow my blog and Instagram for more “Kat Scrappiness Amazingness”!

Stay Safe and Stay Home . ..

New Slimline Dies!
Hi, I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!

Did you notice the Kat released two new slimline nesting die sets earlier this week? One is Embossed Edged and the other is Stitched Scalloped. Here is a look at them.

Today, I’m sharing two cards I created using the new slimline dies. My card bases measure 8.5 x 3.5 inches. I cut my pieces of heavy weight card stock 8.5×7 and then scored at 3.5 on the 7 inch side.

My first card uses the largest Embossed Edged slimline die from the set. I die cut this with white card stock. I then used a stencil, a blender brush, and blue distress ink to create the clouds. The hills were created using a die from the Crafters Essentials Easter die set and the white cloud die cuts are from the He is Risen die set. I adhered these directly to my card using wet adhesive. I layered this panel on a piece of gray card stock leaving about a 1/16th edge and adhered it to my white card base.

I stamped and colored, using Copics, the sloth from the Stewart the Sloth stamp set. I then cut it out using my Silhouette machine. I stamped the sentiment “Hang in There” from the same stamp set in black on gray card stock that I had die cut using the Stitched Fishtail banner dies. I added these to the card using dimensional adhesive.

My second card uses the largest Stitched Scalloped slimline die from the set and a piece of pink polka dot patterned paper. I adhered this to a piece of dark gray card stock that is slightly larger and glued this panel to my light gray card base. From that same dark card stock, I die cut the congrats letters three times from the Condensed Lowercase Alphabet dies. I glued the layers together. This gives a little bit of dimension to the letters on the card. I adhered these to the card base and added a few sparkling clear droplets.

Thanks for stopping by and I can’t wait to see what everyone creates with these new dies.
