December 2017 Release Day 2: Blooming Bunch

Tuesday, December 12, 2017

I have always loved cards with flowers. Once I started to make cards with characters, but I still missing flowers. When I got new set I was so excited and started make card enthusiastically.

I made a lot of different options, but this one is the best IMHO. After I've colored couple of workpieces I knew, what to do next - I'll cut them off.

I toned the background with Altenew inks, cut the window for shaker using Darling Ribbon & Dotted Frames die, filled it with sequins from the new relise.

I stuck the bud above and made the sentiment using hot embossing on acetate

Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

STUDIO KATIA FALL+WINTER PREVIEW: SWEET HOLIDAY

Thursday, September 14, 2017

Hello everyone! I’m so excited to share with you my Sweet Holiday card for Studio Katia preview week!

Winter holidays are my favorite, so there was no question about what I want to create with the Sweet Holiday set.

I like making shakers for every season, especially winter. I started with die cutting a scalloped frame for the shaker.

I inked the background, stamped, coloured and die cut images for the scene. I covered the background scene with acetate, that way sequins won’t touch the house, nor the snow banks in the background.

Now I just need to arrange the characters and – my favourite part – fill the shaker with sequins. I used Iridescent Magnolia Fusion; Vintage Sheer Fusion; Majestic; Silver Dust Seed Beads and Clear Dust Seed Beads.
