Lacy Layered Love card and an Announcement

Good morning crafty friends!

I have some exciting news to share today! As of today I am once again

joining the Kat Scrappiness design team. I am so happy to be back on the team 

and designing for Kat again! Those of you who shop at Kat Scrappiness often know 

what a variety of crafty products she carries in her online shop, not to mention the

growing number of products being released under the Kat Scrappiness brand.

And all of this at excellent prices!

All of my nested background dies are from Kat and I reach for them 

on almost every card I make!

For my first project back on the team I made a Valentine's Day

inspired card to put you in the mood for the new release!

You're definitely going to want to check back in the shop on 

January 17th, 18th and 19th to see all of the wonderful new Valentine's products

being released!

Here is the recipe for today's card:

1) Cut a panel of white Bristol Smooth Cardstock with the largest die in the 

Stitched Scalloped Square Dies.

2) With the My Favorite Things Cloud Stencil, blend some 

Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink on your scalloped panels

in varying heights. Adhere stenciled panel to square card base.

3) Die cut the solid heart from the Lacy Layered Heart Die 

from Bristol Smooth Cardstock and the Lacy cover die from vellum.

4) Do some ink blending in rainbow colors on the solid heart and then 

lay the lacy vellum over the rainbow heart.  It looks so pretty to see the 

pretty rainbow colors peaking through the lace.

5) Lastly adhere the heart shaped die to the cloud blended background 

and die cut the word "love" from the I Love You Shadow Dies 

out of silver foil cardstock. Adhere the "love" die cut over the lacy heart.

Here are the Kat Scrappiness products used on my card:

Lacy Layered Heart Die 

I Love You Shadow Dies 

Stitched Scalloped Square Dies

Easter Bunny Cuteness

 Happy Monday morning!

What better way to cheer up a Monday morning than with some 

adorable Easter bunny cuteness!

This sweet little bunny comes from the Gerda Steiner stamp set

Peeking Easter Friends available at Kat Scrappiness!

I colored her up with my Copic markers and popped her onto a 

heart embossed panel that I cut out using the Stitched Scalloped Square dies.

The card base is also made from the Stitched Scalloped Square dies.

I love making shaped card bases from scalloped dies!

The sentiment was stamped on to a panel cut from 

the Stitched Sentiment Strip dies

and I added some pretty Teal Jewels on either side of it.

Watercolored Mandala Card with Video

Good morning crafty friends!

I'm up on the Kat Scrappiness blog today with a 

card I'd like to share with you using one of the newest dies in the store!

It's called the Mandala die and it cuts a beautiful intricate pattern

into your project. Today I've used a water coloring technique called ink smooshing

(yes it's a thing)😆

I used 3 different color distress inks:

Salty Ocean

Peacock Feathers

and

Lucky Clover

This technique is easy and fun to do and you can get beautiful

results every time! There are so many color combinations you 

could use depending on your favorite colors.

Here is a video I made to show you the ink smooshing technique.

You can watch it here or on YouTube.

Thanks so much for joining me today.  I hope you'll give this technique a try!

It's lots of fun and it looks beautiful with minimal effort.

Cold Twigs ~ Warm Heart

I'm excited to share a project with you today that I made for the Kadoodle Bug

Design Team. I created a shaker tag with the Cold Twigs Snowman and 

I am so happy with the way it turned out!

If you have seen any of my projects on Instagram or Facebook over the last 2 days

you'd see that I've gone snowman crazy! I just can't stop creating projects with

these fun Snowmen! A friend of my mom asked me to create some tags and

a card for her with a snowman on it and I just kept going from there.

For today's project I cut out the Cold Twigs Snowman SVG out with my 

Scan n Cut and inked all the pieces before putting him together.  

I then pulled out my Stitched Scalloped Nesting Tag Dies from Kat Scrappiness.

I used the largest tag to cut out 2 pieces using matching patterned paper from the 

Lawn Fawn Into the Woods paper pack. Next I took a square die from the 

Stitched Scalloped Square Dies and cut a window out of one of the tags.

I backed the window with acetate and framed it off with foam tape.

Next came the fun part, picking out shaker bits!

I used 2 different sequin/sprinkle mixes for my tag.

Falling Snow Sprinkles Embellishment Mix 

and

Christmas Sequin Village Mix

They really complimented each other and picked up the red and blue in the snowman!

All that was left to do was finish off the tag with some ribbon at the top.

I used some gorgeous Oatmeal Seam Binding from Paper Sweeties and tied 

some red and white twine around it.

For the sentiment I printed it off of my computer on white paper and 

inked the edges for some dimension.

This project was a lot of fun to make, thanks for stopping by today!
