Easter Blessings

Good morning! Today I am up on the Kat Scrappiness blog with a cute little Easter card using 2 of the newest products to the shop.

I started with a 3.5" x 3.5" kraft colored note card and added some pretty paper to it using the new

Easter on Parade Slimline Paper Pack.  The sweet little egg patterned paper was the perfect choice for this card. I cut my piece of paper down to fit my card and then I added a pretty little scalloped border using the Stitched Scalloped Border Dies.

The Everyday Quokka stamp set was the perfect addition to this sweet little card. There are so many accessories in this stamp set including that adorable little Easter egg in his hands!

Don't forget there is a Spring Sale going on right now through March 14th at Kat Scrappiness so go check it out and save some money while you shop!

Thanks for visiting today!

Have a great day, I already am!

Quokka Love ❤️

 

Hello everyone! I hope you're having a good day, if not than just take a look at my card and it should brighten it up! That cute little animal is called a Quokka and it is known as the world's happiest animal! If you're interested in learning a little bit more about this adorable little marsupial, you can read this POST where I went into a little more detail.

The Quokka is the main character of the brand new 

stamp set from Kat Scrappiness called Quokka'n Up!

This Quokka a selfie loving animal and will add the cute to your cards and projects!

For my card today I did some watercoloring on a beautiful rose themed background.

I used the Stitched Scalloped Border dies to cut some white card stock for the top and bottom of my card.

I thought they framed the roses beautifully and toned down the busy pattern. Once I had the two scalloped panels glued down I tucked my cute little Quokka into the bottom panel and added the sentiments to the top and bottom of the card. To finish it off I added some fun bling to the sentiments by adding a trail of White Jewels and a single sweet Red Heart Sprinkle.

To make placing my embellishments easier I used the brand new Embellishment Pick Up Tool and Triangle Embellishment Tray recently released by Kat Scrappiness.  No more embellishments all over my desk and on the floor and the pick up tool makes placement a breeze!

I hope you enjoyed my card today and I hope you'll check out all of the fun crafty goodness over at

Coffee Monster Cards

HAVE YOU SEEN THE MONSTERS?

I just recently found them myself!
These cuties are part of an adorable stamp set by 

Gerda Steiner called Coffee Monster.  I had seen these cuties around Facebook and Instagram and I knew I had to have them!
I just bought them at Kat Scrappiness along with 
some other crafty goodies!

I was so inspired by these adorable monsters that I made the 3 cards shown above to share with you!
To begin with I stamped all the cuties out on 
Bristol Smooth card stock with 

Gina K Amalgam Ink so that I could color them with 

whatever type of marker I wanted.

Since my Zig markers give me the best blended results I used them for the coloring.
I cut out a bunch of them at once with my Brother Scan n Cut and laid them all out on my desk. There is definitely no lack of mojo when all of those cute monsters are staring back at you.  
The ideas for the cards came pretty easily.

For my first card I took some True Black Bitty Big paper from Papertrey Ink and cut it down with one of the Kat Scrappiness 

Stitched Scalloped Border dies. I backed the polka dot paper with some craft foam so that it would have some dimension and I added the first monster to the bottom.  I used my craft knife to cut away one of his hands from his body so that he could hold his itty bitty coffee cup under it... so cute!

The sentiment from the Coffee Monster set was stamped at the bottom of the card with Orange Zest ink from Papertrey Ink. For a little bit of extra color and interest I added a few drops of 

Nuvo Crystal Drops in blue. I've always loved the look of vibrant colors against a black polka dot background.

Card #1 done!

For my second card I started with some Kraft card stock from Papertrey Ink.  My favorite kraft card stock hands down for color and quality! To give the background some texture and dimension I ran the paper through my vagabond with my 

We R Memory Keepers Next Level Quilted embossing folder.

For my focal point I used the Kat Scrappiness 

Layered Coffee Cup Die  and popped monster #2 up on the koozie.  I added an itty bitty coffee cup from the stamp set to his hand as well. The Layered Coffee Cup Die is such a great size to take center stage on any card! You can check out this video on my YouTube channel to see instructions on how to assemble the bits and pieces of this coffee cup. For my sentiment I die cut the Kat Scrappiness Got Coffee word die from some PTI Dark Chocolate card stock and added it to the top and bottom corners of the card.

Card #2 done!

For my third and final card I started with some Aqua Mist card stock from PTI for my card base. The card base was given some extra interest with the help of the Cover Up Grid stamp set by PTI. I used a tone on tone effect and used Aqua Mist ink to stamp the grid. Next I took some PTI Kraft card stock and stamped out my own background using the coffee cup from the Coffee Monster stamp set and the largest coffee bean and heart from the Kat Scrappiness Let's Get Caffeinated stamp set. I used PTI's Cocoa Bean ink for all the little background images. The kraft panel was then cut with one of the dies from the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Dies.  Those are definitely my go to dies for many of the panels on my cards.  

I love the scalloped edges!

All that was left was to add my sad monster to the front with foam tape and stamp my sentiment from the Coffee Monster set

 underneath him in Versafine Onyx Black Ink. 

That is definitely my favorite black ink for 

crisp black sentiment stamping!

Card #3 done!

Heart Shaker Card

Hi everyone! I'm up on the blog again at Kat Scrappiness today to bring you a pretty little shaker card!  I have the privilege of introducing some new products that are available in the 
shop this month. 
One of the products is a set of nested Stitched Scalloped Heart dies and the second product is a set of Stitched Scalloped Border dies. I'm just loving the combination of the scallops and the stitching together!  I used the Stitched Scalloped Border dies to cut some white card stock and I popped it up on foam tape over the patterned paper on the bottom of the card front.  

I made a shaker element out of the Stitched Scalloped Heart dies and filled it with a combination of the 4 mm Sparkling Clear Solid Confetti Mix and the 3 mm Transparent Coral Hearts.

There are over 400 sequin mixes in the Kat Scrappiness shop to choose from so you can go shaker card crazy!

Shaker cards are so much fun to make, I hope you'll give one a try and thanks for stopping by!
