Ninja Turtles

4 December, 201528 November, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

My 6 year old has been invited to a 6th birthday party of one of her classmates and apparently he loves Ninja Turtles, so this is what I have made for him!

I added some of those cute googly eyes which I think give them so much more character.

I used the 1-1/4″ circle punch and the Large oval punch to create the turtles head from Wild Wasabi card.

The bandanna’s are made from 1/2″ strips of Pumpkin Pie, Elegant Eggplant, Tempting Turquoise & Real Red. The Triple Banner punch was used to create the ends of the bandanna.

The mouth is drawn by hand.

The black background is embossed with the Hexagon TIEF.

I saw a similar card on Pinterest, so not entirely my idea, but oh how cute are they?!

Gift Card Holder

9 October, 201524 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a couple of gift card holders (cased from Claire Daly) which are very simple to make.

You can create 3 of these from 1 x A4 sheet of cardstock by cutting it vertically at 7cm x 29.7cm!

I used the Lots of Labels Framelits to die cut the end of the card, then score it at 3-1/8″ and 7-3/4″.

Emboss the opposite end to the framelit cut end and adhere Stampin’ Up! Tear and Tape to create a pouch. (This tape can be cut vertically so you have a very thin strip, otherwise the gift card won’t fit in!)

Create a belly band that slips over to hold it shut and decorate however you like. I have used the 2-3/8″ Scallop circle punch and added some embellishments. The ice-cream is the Sprinkles of Life stamp set which can be found on the back page of the AC.

and here it is open with the gift card inside!

Incy Wincy Spider

30 September, 201515 September, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card using the new Spider Web Doilies and Black Glimmer Paper in the Holiday Catalogue (pg 47).

Seeing as we don’t celebrate Halloween here in Australia (like the USA do!), I didn’t particularly want to make Halloween cards or projects. But, I loved the spider web doilies and had to purchase them!!!!

I also loved the black glimmer paper and thought it would create the cutest, most sparkly spider and I was right!

See his legs? How did I make them you ask?

Well, notice that the doilie has been trimmed to fit in the top corner of the card?

The left over pieces I trimmed down to be his legs. No waste in this house!!!

I added some googly eyes to finish him off, cute hey?!!

Please let me know what you think of my card.

Robot Boys will be Boys #stampinup

Today I share a card for the boys using the stamp set, Boys Will Be Boys!

My base is Tip Top Taupe card stock with a layer of Whisper White card stock, then some Go Wild DSP.

The image is stamped with the new black archival ink pad onto Watercolour paper and coloured with an Aquapainter and Inkpad. I rounded only 2 diagonal corners of the watercolour paper and the opposite on the Tip Top Taupe card behind it!

Girly girl

21 August, 201512 August, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share another card I made using the Hey Girl stamp set! I have used Coastal Cabana, Whisper White and Silver as my colour combination.

I stamped the image on the Whisper White card stock and then fussy cut it out with paper snips. I coloured her using my Stampin’ Write Markers. Check out that Metallic Foil Doilie. Isn’t it cute? Well you get 24 in a pack and they come in 2 sizes in gold and silver for only $7.00. Check them out here.

The image is added using dimensionals and some twine holding the balloon. A very simple card, but it doesn’t need anything else!

Dino Roar

19 August, 20153 August, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a card I made using the No Bones About It stamp set!

I have used Old Olive, Very Vanilla and Wild Wasabi as my colours combination.

I stamped the skeleton image over the Very Vanilla card and then embossed it with the Large Polka Dot TIEF.

Notice the inside panel? I cut it to size and then carefully stamped the dinosaur (from the front of the card) at one end and used the oval framelits to die cut it out, so I could use what was left for the inside panel of my card and stamp this next image in the centre of the oval. Never waste anything!!!!

Happy Birthday Ella!

5 August, 201528 July, 2015 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

This is a very similar card to one I shared last week using the Hey Girl stamp set. This is for my daughter’s friend, Ella who is having a party after school today!

I have used a couple of Ella’s favourite colours; Melon Mambo, Whisper White and Silver to create the perfect card for a 6 year old.

I have used the Triple Banner Punch and the Little Numbers Thinlits. I fussy cut the image and coloured her using Copic markers. The sentiment is from the stamp set, And Many More.

Don’t forget to stamp the inside of the card to make it personal and the envelope to coordinate!
