Studio Katia STAMPtember® Exclusive!





 Hello everyone! Yesterday, I received my stamp set from SSS and Studio Katia STAMPtember release Blooming Trio. Unfortunately this stamp set has already been sold out... But, anyway here is my card.






I stamped the flowers on the watercolor paper using black waterproof ink. I colored them using Gansai Tambi watercolors and added shadows using Faber-Castell pencils.






Next, I stamped the sentiment Miss You So Much using black ink and splattered the background with black paint. 

To finished my card I've added some clear drops on the flowers and added a few clear sequins as a final touch. And finally, I foam mounted it into light beige card base.

MFT Card Design Superstar: Innovation Master. Secret Background Slider-Shaker Card+VIDEO



Hello everyone! Here is my last card for My Favorite Things 2017 Card Design Superstar contest. 




I'm entering in the Innovation Master category. I made the Slider-Shaker card with secret background.




I’ve started by stamping the images from Mermazing stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah Solar white paper and coloring them using Copic markers before die cutting with their coordinating dies.




Then, I made two backgrounds for my card. I used watercolors for my first backround and distress inks for the second background.




Next, i die cut the shake base out of the Die-namics Rectangle STAX and added the ton of sequins. 




After that, I cut out a small banner out of white cardstock using my paper trimmer and stamped the sentiment using black inks. 




I've adhered it all together with foam tape and then mounted the panel on a white card base.

I made a short video to show how it works. You can watch it here or in HD on YouTube.

MFT Card Design Superstar: Coloring Virtuoso




Hello everyone! Here is my second card for My Favorite Things 2017 Card Design Superstar challenge. I'm entering in the Coloring Virtuoso category.

I’ve started by stamping the images from Mermazing stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah Solar white paper and coloring them using Copic markers before die cutting with their coordinating dies.






 Next I’ve started working on my background. I wanted to create the glow underwater effect. I used light markers to smoothly blur the background from center to edge so that the background seemed to glow from within.





Once my background was almost ready, i’ve added some splatters of silvery paint and some dots to add intersting texture.




Next, I cut out a small banner out of white cardstock using my paper trimmer and heat embossed the sentiment. I glued all the elements with foam tape and then mounted the panel on a white card base and added a few sequins as a final touch.

Thanks for stopping by!

Next, I've covered all the images with masking paper and blended the backfround with blue distress ink. Once the background was complete, I carefully removed the masking paper and started coloring the images with  Altenew Artist markers




Then, I added accents with white gel pen and used largest frame from Darling Ribbon & Dotted Frames set. I added Be Merry sentiment in gold embossing on vellum and adhered it to the card.

Всем привет и добро пожаловать на новый осенне-зимний релиз Studio Katia! Для блог-хопа посвящённого новому релизу, я сделала рождественскую открытку с невероятно красивой пуансеттией.
Я начала с того, что отштамповала несколько пуансеттий на белой бумаге чернилами мементо. Затем координирующими ножами я вырубила маски, и поверх масок отштамповала листья и ягоды. После этого я снова закрыла все изображения масками и затонировала фон голубыми дистресс чернилами. Когда фон был готов, я аккуратно сняла все маски и начала раскрашивать цветы Altenew маркерами. Затем я добавила акценты белой ручкой и использовала нож Dotted Frames. После этого я сделала сентимент Be Merry горячим золотым эмбоссингом на полоске вэллума, и приклеила поверх открытки. В конце я добавила немного кристаллов и конфетти в качестве финального акцента и приклеила мою открытку к белой основе.
Я разыгрываю сертификат на 35$ CAD в магазине Studio Katia и рандомно выберу победителя из комментариев.
Спасибо, что заглянули, и не забудьте оставить комментарий чтобы выиграть призы.

And the winner is... ARIANNA BARBARA! Congrats, AriannaPlease write to info@studiokatia.com with subject SK GC Kristina's winner within 48 hours :)

STUDIO KATIA FALL+WINTER PREVIEW: THANKSGIVING SHAKER CARD



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

To start I’ve stamped the pumpkins from giving Thanks stamp set with memento ink, and coloured with COPIC markers in fall colors. I used coordinating dies and then I toned white card base with orange distress ink and splattered with water. I cut the base to square.

From the scraps I die cut the Thanks sentiment, the sentiment also comes with outline so I die cut outline out of white card-stock and adhered it all together.






Then i die cut the shake base out of the new Dotted Patterns: Fancy Square which measures 4.25x4.25 inches and added the new 3mm sequins Iridescent Veil. 
I've adhered it all together and the card is complete.



3MM Iridescent Veil Sequins

  Всем привет! Я очень рада сегодня показать открытку-шейкер ко дню благодарения которую я сделала для превью нового релиза Studio Katia.
Сначала я отштамповала тыквы из набора Giving Thanks чернилами мементо, и раскрасила их копиками в осенней палитре и вырубила их координирующими ножами. Затем я затонировала белую бумагу оранжевыми чернилами и побрызгала водой, и обрезала в форме квадрата. Из оставшейся части я вырубила сентимент Thanks координирующим ножом и приклеила вырубку на белый негатив. Затем я вырубила квадратную форму для шейкера ножом Dotted Patterns-Fancy Square и собрала шейкер добавив пайетки Irediscent Veil. И склеила вместе все элементы открытки.
