Avery Elle Stuck on You Interactive Valentine's Day Card

By    February 01, 2019 // No comments
Hello Kraftgali friends!

Yeah, it's Friday! And love is in the air, at least for us crafters making Valentine's Day cards!  I'm sharing a sweet and simple interactive card using the Avery Elle Stuck on You stamp set.


To begin my card I made a card base with 110lb white cardstock and trimmed another piece a little bit smaller than the card.  I used oxide inks in twisted citron and shabby shutters on the white cardstock.  I then trimmed 3 stripes of Tim Holtz watercolor paper to 3/4" and inked with oxide inks in spun sugar, worn lipstick, and picked raspberry.  Next, I ran it through my die cutting machine with three varying sizes of stitched circle dies. 


I trimmed one more 110lb white cardstock to fit behind the inked paper and glued it down.  I stamped the sentiments with black ink in two of the circles.  Next, I stamped the cacti with memento black ink, colored with copic markers, and fussy cut out.  The colors I used are: cacti-YG00, YG21, YG23, &YG25 and for the rest-RV10, RV21, RV23, & RV25. 


I lined up the large cactus and used the Lawn Fawn let's toast pull tab add on die to create the pull notches.  I also die cut the rest of the pieces from the set, the white pull tab, the holder, and the pink foil arrow tab.  I am loving this die set, I have used it for soo many cards already, it is such a versatile set!  I pop dotted my large cactus and glued dotted my smaller one to the pull tab.  For the center circle, I added the leftover from the small circle and pop dotted another small cactus over it. 


For my finishing touches, I die cut the hugs from Altenew Script Words die set in pink foil paper from Kraftgali's shop and added pink sequins. 

This was a simple interactive but fun Valentine's Day card and hope it inspires you to get your pink on!  Kraftgali has a large selection of top brands in their valentine's products, go see for yourself!  And when you have created something, please share with us on the Kraftgali fan club on FB!

Thanks for visiting with us and I will see you again next Friday!

Hello Crafty Friends - Annie here with a Love card. 

For today's card, I am using the adorable Lawn Fawn I Loce You(Calyptus) stamp set. 
I couldn't resist this cute guy.


I kept my card clean and simple - just a die cut for a bit of color behind the Koala and the other little stamps from the set. I added a Queen & Co. Topping Mini Heart in Light Pink by the sentiment.


I hope you give this sweet guy a try!

Rawr Means "I Love You"

By    January 27, 2019 // No comments
Hi crafty friends! I love all things for Valentine's Day. I had so much fun playing with this adorable little Rawr stamp set by Lawn Fawn. I thought it would be perfect for making little mini Valentine's Day cards.





I started by die cutting 4 pieces of watercolor cardstock down to 2 3/4" square. Then I stamped the dinosaur and sentiment with Versafine black ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.   

With a cutting tool I cut four pieces of solid cardstock a little larger then the watercolor square to use as a matte.


I colored all of the dinosaur images in with Arteza real brush pens. I colored all of the dinosaurs different colors. I colored the "rawr" speech bubble in with grey. I added browns for a little shadow and and ground cover so the dinosaur would have something to stand on and not be floating in space. 


Then I stamped a bunch of hearts and bows with Versafine in and heat set them with clear embossing powder. 


I colored all of the little images in with different color Arteza real brush pens. Then I fussy cut them out. 



I matted all four dinosaurs onto the different color cardstock. I then adhered them all to a top fold 3"X3" cardbase. 


With a little piece of foam tape I adhered two hearts on each card. I then adhered the bows with foam tape on the top for the girls and on the neck for the boys.

Interactive card with Neat & Tangled Stay Cool

By    January 25, 2019 // No comments
Welcome back friends!

This Friday I wanted to share a double slider interactive card using the Neat & Tangled Stay Cool stamp set, since I am loving using the winter themed stamp sets for Christmas AND after!  Love stretching my stamps!


For the double slider I used Lawn Fawn's double slider surprise dies following the video on their website for specific instructions.  I wanted cool tones to go with the winter stamps and used the purple striped pattern paper from Lawn Fawn's Really Rainbow paper pack.  For the snow I die cut some stitched hills from white velvet paper to give some texture.


I stamped all the cuties from Neat & Tangled Stay Cool stamp set, colored with copic markers, and fussy cut out.  On the left side of the slider, I stamped the sentiment in black ink and added the little girl fishing and the adorable penguin.


On the right side of the slider, I added the adorable girl with the sled and the seal with another cute sentiment.  I added the two pull tabs in thick black cardstock heat embossed with white embossing powder on each side for easy pulling on the card base.


In the center, I inked a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor paper with stormy sky, chipped sapphire, & faded jeans oxide inks.  I added the whole double slider to the middle to ground it on a card base I created from 110lb thick white cardstock.  And I added yet another great sentiment from the same Stay Cool stamp set!


To add a bit of shine, I used glossy accents to the "Cool" and snowflakes.  It gives just the right amount of ice shimmer to the card!

If you haven't tried interactive cards yet, the dies and videos out their make them easy to create.  Not to mention they are sooo fun to pull on!

Thanks again for visiting with me and Kraftgali today!  If you haven't joined them on FB, you can here and share your creations with the product you get from them!

See you next Friday!
