The front of this card has a simple layout of Polished Pink Matt behind the Awash in Beauty DSP. These two layers are glued together, run them through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the Timeworn 3D Textured embossing Folder, before gluing to the Mossy Meadow card base. The sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set is stamped in Versamark ink, Silver Emboss Powder added before being Heat set and cut out with the coordinating dies. The Black Mini Dimensionals are added and a Sweet Sorbet Ribbon Bow placed behind it. Silver Festive Pearls added last to tie in with the Silver embossing!

Framed & Festive Christmas Shaker Card

28 November, 202228 November, 2022 craftwithkate

The Heart of Christmas Blog Hop has been brought to you by the Art With Heart team each Monday for 22 weeks when we started in July. Tonight is our final Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2022 and it’s a little sad it’s over. I hope you have enjoyed all the magnificent projects and built up your stash of Christmas cards too!

For our final Christmas blog hop this year, I’ve created a Shaker card!

The Thick Basic White card base with a layer of Storybook Gnome DSP that has been inked around the edges with Night of Navy ink and a Dauber. Doesn’t it give the paper depth and a beautiful edge?!!!

Christmas Shaker card using Stampin Up Storybook Gnomes DSP, Framed Florets dies by Kate Morgan, Australia 2022

Next, I die cut 3 of the ovals (Framed Florets dies) in Thick Basic White card. I also used this die to cut the snow hill. I glued the snow hill behind one of the frames and then glued another frame behind it so the hill is wedged between 2 layers. I cut a piece of window sheet using the largest decorative frame and another in Thick Basic White. I only needed the inner pieces from these die cuts. Using my Blending Brushes, I inked the White oval starting with Pool Party, Balmy Blue then Night of Navy inks. To get that snow effect, I placed some Craft White ink refill onto an acrylic block and used my Water Painter to add some water and then tap it across the oval. Put it aside to dry. I used Tear & Tape to glue the window sheet behind the ovals, before adding some Foam Adhesive Strip around the frame. I placed some of the small Effervescent Elements inside the frame before peeling the backing paper off the Foam Adhesive Strips and immediately place the blended coloured oval on top. The shaker element is now secure.

I stamped the ‘Merry Christmas’ in Versamark ink onto Night of Navy card, added White Emboss Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. The Framed and Festive stamp set is used for both sentiments. The trees are cut using the Happy Forest dies and glued to the front of the oval. Wink of Stella was added to the centre tree. Some Starry Sky Baker’s Twine was placed behind the oval which is adhered to the card with Seal+.

On the inside I stamped a Night of Navy sentiment and added some DSP to a white insert.

To finish off, I added some Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels to the centre of the snowflakes.

Masculine Fun Fold 3D Shutter Card

16 November, 202215 November, 2022 craftwithkate

Week 29 – Merry Merlot

Today’s card was inspired by Amy Shihinski (in Canada), but I needed to change it up to suit our Metric measurements here in the South Pacific. If you wish to see Amy’s measurements, there will be a link at the end of this post.

I made this card for my hubby’s birthday on Sunday. He accompanied me to Sydney so I could attend OnStage on Saturday with 500 crafty friends, he spent the day wandering around Sydney by himself and had a wonderful time. Not sure why he wouldn’t attend OnStage with me, LOL!

Anyway, I carefully carried this card all the way to Sydney in my luggage to surprise him on Sunday morning.

I have used the Brewed for You Bundle and the Lights Aglow Specialty Designer Series Paper and Gold Brushed Metallic Foil.

Masculine 3D Shutter Card Brewed For You by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022 front.

The stamping is all done in Black Memento, Crushed Curry and Merry Merlot inks and die cut using the coordinating Brewed dies. The Snowfall Accents Puff Paint was added to the beer glasses and heated with the Heat Tool to activate.

Here is the real wow of this card when you open it!

Masculine 3D Shutter Card Brewed For You by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

You may notice that the sentiments and the beer glass look a little different on the inside, as they were not going to fit on the card. Never fear, I just adapted. The glass wasn’t going to fit as it was too tall, so I cut the top off down to the beer level and added the froth! The sentiments across the centre panels, I had to carefully ink up individual words, covering the ones I didn’t want, covered with some washi tape (remember to remove the tape before stamping onto the card though!).

Here are my measurements (metric):
Merry Merlot A5 card base: 14.8cm x 21cm, scored in half @ 10.5cm
Basic White Card insert: 20cm x 14cm (see image below)
Merry Merlot Matt layers: 4.5cm x 4.5cm (8), 2cm x 3.5cm (4), 4.5cm x 3.5cm (2)
Lights Aglow SDSP layers: 4cm x 4cm (4)
Gold Foil layers: 4cm x 4cm (2), 1.5cm x 3cm (4)
Basic White layers: 4cm x 4cm (2), 4cm x 3cm (2)

Christmas Tree Gatefold card

Each Monday, join me for the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop brought to you by the Art With Heart team. We will be showcasing our July-December Mini catalogue and Annual catalogue Christmas products.

This Gatefold card has the most beautiful Christmas Tree as the main feature.

This is a larger card and will need a bigger envelope, but I think I will just leave it on top of a present, under the ribbon bow. Why would I want to enclose it in an envelope, right?!!!

A Pool Party card base, Night of Navy Matt layers, the Storybook Gnome DSP. and the Brightest Glow Bundle for the sentiment.

Texture Chic Trifold Shutter card

2 November, 20221 November, 2022 craftwithkate

Week 27 – Mango Melody

This Trifold Shutter card is quite easy to make, but it’s all the layering pieces that takes the time to cut and glue together. I am using the Perched in a Tree Bundle with the Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper.

My card base is Mango Melody, the matts are Basic Black and the patterned papers as mentioned above.

Trifold Shutter card using Stampin Up Texture Chic & Perched in a Tree Bundle by Kate Morgan, Australia 2022

I stamped the bird in Black Memento ink onto Basic White card. I placed the coordinating die over the top and held it down with some washi tape. Before cutting it out, I used my blending brushes to add the colouring; Mango Melody, Pool Party & Petal Pink. This was so that the white border around the image remained white once it was die cut!

I covered the bird with Wink of Stella to stand out even more. Lastly I added some gold Festive Pearls.

The branch is cut from Evening Evergreen card and the floral spray was cut from Basic White card and Petal Pink ink added with the blending brushes. The leaves were coloured the same way and then I added small amounts of Multipurpose Adhesive Glue, allowing it to almost dry, before adding the Gilded Leafing.

The next panel has the sentiment stamped in Memento Black ink and cut using the Stitched Rectangle dies. The Basic Black layer is one size rectangle larger. I had a small strip of the patterned paper left over, so I used my Paper Snips to cut banners at either end and glued it to the black layer. The sentiment layer is added on Mini Dimensionals.

Sending Smiles, Partial Die Cutting Technique

26 October, 202225 October, 2022 craftwithkate

Week 26 – Highland Heather

Today is the first time I have inked up the Sending Smiles stamp set, I can’t believe it’s taken me so long. With the coordinating dies, it makes it super easy to cut out many of the images as well as this Partial Die Cutting Technique.

Colour Combination - Highland Heather

Taking a piece of Basic White Thick card stock, I stamped the four flowers across the top. Place the coordinating die for each one and hold it with washi tape so they don’t move. Place it on your die cutting machine (ensure it is straight), and move the top acrylic plate so it only covers the top half of the dies. This ensures only that only the top section will cut. After removing the dies, place it in your Trimmer to cut between the images in straight line to remove the excess card or you can use a craft knife and ruler. I then cut a strip of Gold Metallic Specialty Paper and glued it behind the cut flowers. I then stamped the leaves and extra flowers, some directly onto the card and some die cut to add extra dimension using Dimensionals.

Sending Smiles Partial Die Cutting card Highland Heather CCBH by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

I glued this to an A5 landscape Basic White card, ensuring the gold was against the fold. Now I could trim off the excess at the bottom so it would fit into a C6 envelope. Using the Basic Border die, I cut a strip of Gingham Cottage DSP and glued it to the bottom of the card. The ‘sending’ sentiment is stamped in Versamark ink onto Highland Heather card stock using the Stamparatus, as I like to ink it a couple of times. Sprinkle some Heat & Stick powder over, shake off the excess and melt it with a Heat Tool. Now add some Gilded Leaf and press it on to cover the sentiment. I use a sponge dauber to gently rub off the excess. Cut it out with the coordinating die. ‘Birthday Wishes’ is stamped directly to the card.

You can really see the Gilded Leaf on the sentiment below and the Wink of Stella on the flower centres.

On the inside, I used the left over piece of the Gingham Cottage paper from the front and added it to the bottom of the card, with another stamped flower.

I finished it off with some Glossy Dots Assortment in Daffodil Delight and Gorgeous Grape and the Wink of Stella.

Split Window Masculine card

19 October, 202219 October, 2022 craftwithkate

Week 25 – Gray Granite

Today’s masculine card features the Brewed for You Bundle and He’s the Man DSP. I started with a Gray Granite card base 21cm x 14cm scored @ 6.5cm, 10.5cm. I stamped the ‘hey, there!’ (Charming Sentiments stamp set) multiple times down the left hand side using the Stamparatus. I was going to use the hinge technique, but it was going to be too far apart, so I placed some grid paper under the card and used the Squares to line up my stamping. I moved the card up 2 more squares and stamped again and repeat. Open the card flat and die cut the circle (Stylish Shapes die), centred along the first scoreline. Now you can glue the left panel to the inside of the card.

Cut another circle in Basic White card and glue it to fit inside the front of the card. The He’s The Man DSP is used on right side and the reverse of this side. I cut a very thin strip of Brushed Metallics card in the Gold and glued it down the edge of the DSP on the front.

The wine glasses are stamped and die cut and the red wine is created by using a Blending Brush and Merry Merlot ink. The glass on the inside is empty with the sentiment ‘Another round for your birthday’!

Each Monday, join me for the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop brought to you by the Art With Heart team. We will be showcasing our July-December Mini catalogue and Annual catalogue Christmas products.

My card features the Santa Express Designer Series Paper, using three different patterns in this fun fold design.

Colour Combination - Shaded Spruce Real Red Basic White

Decorated Pines Fun Fold card by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

The Decorated Pine dies were used to create the feature panel. The branch is Shaded Spruce and the baubles are Brushed Metallic Gold cardstock with the 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer paper to fill them in. The bows are Real Red. Using Adhesive Sheets on all these pieces makes it a lot easier than trying to use Multipurpose adhesive glue for such intricate work.

The sentiment is from the Peaceful Deer stamp set and cut out using the Sending dies.

Here is the card when open with the white panel for your message.

Grassy Grove with Torn paper technique

28 September, 202228 September, 2022 craftwithkate

Week 22 – Garden Green

Today I am using the Grassy Grove Bundle. The torn paper technique, recently shared with a member of The Crafty Carrot team, is super effective. I’ve used it in the background with Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Soft Succulent.

Grassy Grove with Torn Background card by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2022

The dies were used to cut out the tree layer in Garden Green cardstock, before dry embossing it with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. The I took a Blending Brush and added colour to the top half to give it a little more depth. The tree layer is added to the card with Mini Dimensionals/Adhesive Strips.

The deer are die cut from some Brushed Metallic cardstock and added with Multipurpose Adhesive Glue.
