kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. Here’s another card using the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box (from Catherine Pooler Designs). I used the CP Baking Sheet Dies (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) in a slightly different way this time.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. I also cut a piece of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″, and a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 3-7/8 x 5-1/8″.

I stamped the sprinkles from the Baking Spirits Bright stampset in CP Wintergreen Ink onto the front panel then die cut a baking sheet from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the CP Cookie Sheet Dies (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit). I stenciled it with CP Cotton Candy Ink and the baking rack from the CP Cookie Sheet Dies. I die cut all the cookies using the dies in the CP Baking Spirits Bright stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit), used direct-to paper with Gingerbread Ink for the cookie base. Then stamped the frosting with CP Rouge Ink for the candy cane and CP Wintergreen Ink for the tree and the details with CP Tranquil Ink for the snowflake, Versamark Ink and embossed with WOW Bright White Embossing Powder for the candy cane and added Sparkling Sugar Sparkles Glitter by WOW to the tree.

I die cut the rolling pin CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper using the Mix & Bake dies and stamped the sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with CP Midnight Ink. I popped it up by adding some Foam Tape.

On the inside of the card I cut a piece of pattern paper to 1 x 4-1/4″ and another to 1-1/4 x 4-1/4″. I stamped a sentiment from the CP Baking Spirits Bright stampset with CP Sea Glass Ink and added a cookie.

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. Here’s another fun card using the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box from Catherine Pooler Designs. For this one I’m combining the Hobnob Coverplate with the Fall Frames Dies (previously released) as well as the Mix & Bake set.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler 8.5 x 11″ Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. I die cut the front panel from some CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) using the CP Hobnob Cover Plate (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit). And I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp Silver Glitter Cardstock to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

Next, I die cut the frame from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the CP Fall Frames Dies and the inside (negative) piece from Vellum. I stamped the sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with Tsukineko Stazon MIDI JET BLACK Ink.

I die cut the spatula and rolling pin from both Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) and inked the rolling pin with CP Gingerbread Ink (to be released at a later date) and the spatula with CP Cotton Candy Ink.

For the cookie, I ink blended the cookie with CP Gingerbread Ink on Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and then stamped the snowman icing part with CP Rouge, Midnight and Tiki Torch Inks.

I finished off the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix.

On the inside of the card I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ and a piece of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper to 1 x 4″. I also stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset with CP Rouge Ink.

Creating a Holiday Shaker Card feat. Catherine Pooler Designs Cookie Sheet Dies

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. I recently received my Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box from Catherine Pooler Designs and am having so much fun making cards. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, in July she released a card kit box that is remeniscent of her old Stamp of Approval boxes that were released quarterly years ago. The theme of the box is holiday baking so it has alot of super cute images and dies. This box also came with a virtual retreat packed full of classes. For my first card I knew I needed to make a shaker card using the cute baking rack in the kit.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/4 x 10-1/2″ and scored at 5-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 5 x 5″. I stenciled the backgound using the Catherine Pooler Designs Ditsy Holly Layering Stencil (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) along with Simon Hurley Later Gator Lunar Paste for the leaves and CP Rouge Ink mixed with Modeling Paste for the berries.

For the shaker I die cut the cookie sheet from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the CP Cookie Sheet Dies (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) as well as several of the baking rack (I cut off the grid part so it gave me several borders to stack). I used the direct-to-paper technique with CP Rouge Ink to color the cookie sheet.

I added a piece of acetate behind the baking rack before adding all the stacked frame pieces. I used the CP Bavaria Sequin Mix and Sparkling Sugar Sparkles Glitter by WOW for the shaker bits.

I stamped the cookies using CP Cotton Candy, Gingerbread, and Rouge inks and heat embossed the gingerbread man’s details with White Embossing Powder. For the rolling pin I used CP Grass Skirt Ink and a woodgrain paper from the From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper Pack (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with the Mix & Bake (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) dies.

I stamped the sentiment from the CP Baking Spirits Bright Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Midnight Ink and fussycut it before adding it to the card,

I finished off the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix.

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with CP Rouge Ink and added another gingerbread man.

Halloween Card Using Only Dies feat. Lawn Fawn

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. It’s been a few weeks since I posted a Halloween card so it’s time for some new ones. Here is one using only Lawn Fawn dies and stencils. It features the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop and Spooky Gate dies. It’s really easy to create fun or spooky dimensional cards with these dies.

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Lawn Fawn Spiffier Speckles 6×6 Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ for the background. I used the Lawn Fawn Nighttime Sky Stencil with Tim Holtz Wilted Violet, Dusty Concord, Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks, and Scattered Straw Distress Oxide Ink.

Next I die cut the forest from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop 3x, the grass from Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow Cardstock (retired) with the Lawn Fawn Simple Grassy Hillsides and inked it with Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow Ink (retired), and the gate from Simon Says Stamp Slate 100lb Gray Cardstock with the Spooky Gate and inked it with Tim Holtz Black Soot Distress Ink to add some dimension. I die cut tombstones, ghosts, stones, and owl from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and colored with Copic Markers. I used R20, C00, 0, & 110 for the ghosts; C3, C5, C9 & 110 for the owl; N1 & N4 for the tombstones; and W3 & W5 for the stones.

I stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Midnight Ink. I trimmed it down to 1/2 x 4″.

I finished off the card by adding some sparkle to the ghosts and the owl with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment and ghosts from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset with Catherine Pooler Midnight Ink.

Fall Card Series #5: Window Card feat. Catherine Pooler Appley Ever After

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. The next post in my Fall card series features a window card using the coordinating dies from the Catherine Pooler’s Appley Ever After stampset. This was a very easy card to make. To add texture to the background I added an embossed panel behind it (more on this later in the post).

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ which I embossed using the Catherine Pooler Designs Woven Coverplate (see your embossing machines instructions for proper sandwich).

I cut a piece of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Bushel and a Peck 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 2-1/4 x 5-1/2″ and cut out three apple windows using the dies from the Appley Ever After Dies. I cut 2 pieces of red metallic cardstock from Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 Paper Stash Metallic Jewels Kraft Stock to 3/4 x 5-1/2″.

Then stamped a sentiment and two apples onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ from the Catherine Pooler Designs Appley Ever After Stamp Set with Midnight, Samba, It’s a Girl, Over Coffee, and Deck the Halls Inks. I added Foam Tape behind the top panel and adhered the apples and sentiment behind it before adhereing to the card base.

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Joyful Thanks Sentiments Stamp Set with Samba Ink and added a strip of pattern paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″.

Fall Card Series #4: Using Catherine Pooler Fall Frames Two Ways and A Fancy Fold

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. The next post in my Fall Card series features two cards using the same Frame die in two very different ways. And I also stepped up one of the cards by adding a fancy fold inside the card. The first one is a shaker but it turned out to be difficult to see the shaker bits inside because of the word die I used, so really this one ‘doesn’t ‘need to be a shaker; it could easily be a floating sentiment like the second card.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I die cut the word “thanks” from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel, added some Appolonia Sequin Mix and backed it with a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ which I colored with CP Green Tea Ink.

Then I die cut the frame 2x from some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames. I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Over Coffee Ink and cut it to 3/8 x 2-1/2″.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Gloss White.

I left the inside of the card of the card blank and added a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″.

Dimensions

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I used the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames to emboss the border on the top panel. Check your embossing machines for the proper sandwich to do this properly.

I die cut the word “thanks” from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel and backed it with a piece of green pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper.

I stamped leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Orange Peel, Sauna, Polished, Spiced, Green Tea, and Eucalyptus inks. I don’t have dies for these stamps so I fussycut them all.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Dark Walnut.

For the inside of the card I decided to step it up and add a fancy fold! I started by cutting a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored it at 2-1/8″, 4-1/4″, and 6-7/8″. Basically scoring it into quarters. Then I adhered I inside the card. I cut 4 pieces of pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 2-1/4″ (2) and 2-1/8″ (2). I shaved off about 1/16″ from all the panels so it didn’t interfere with the folds.

I added a border on one of the panels using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames cut from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. As well as a stitched rectangle and square to the other panels cut with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched RECTANGLE Stackables and Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Square Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Green Tea Ink and cut to 1-3/4 x 4-1/8″. I also added some more leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired).

Fall Card Series #6: It’s All About the Fancy Folds!

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. This post is all about adding fancy folds to your cards. I used different shaped dies and papers as well as a variety of stamps to create different themes. These were inspired by Catherine Pooler’s video on fancy folds over on Stampnation. Check it out here>>.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and then I scored the front of the card at 2-1/8″. At this point you need to decide what shape you wll be die cutting out and which side you will be folding your panel. You will see that on my second and third cards the folds are in the opposite direction.

I chose a scallop square die from the Sizzix Framelits Squares Scallop Die Set. The way to achieve the flip window is to only die cut one half of the panel. To do this you just need to align your cutting plates along the score line covering only the side you will cut out.

I cut 2 pieces of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 2-1/8 x 5-1/2″ and one to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I also die cut 2 scallop squares from the same paper. Then die cut a stitched square from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn Dies – Small Stitched Square Stackables, a scallop square measuring 2 x 2″ and another measuring 3-3/8 x 3-3/8″.

I stamped images from the Catherine Pooler Bless this House Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Green Tea, Polished, Over Coffee, Buttercream, Sauna, Orange Peel, and Spiced inks.

Then stamped the sentiment onto the white scallop piece from the Catherine Pooler Bless this House Stamp Set with Spiced ink.

On the inside of the card I adhered the larger scallop square (3-3/8 x 3-3/8″) and added a pumpkin.

Dimensions

For the second card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and then I scored the front of the card at 2-1/8″.

For this card, I chose a heart die from the Stampin’ Up! Sweet and Sassy Die Set (retired). Same step as before for cutting the flip window.

Next, I cut 3 pieces of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Bushel and a Peck 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 2-1/8 x 5-1/2″ and one to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I also die cut 2 hearts (of the same size) from the same paper. Then die cut a smaller heart from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the same dies. I stamped the sentiment from Catherine Pooler’s Appley Ever After Stamp Set onto it with Midnight ink.

I stamped images from the Catherine Pooler’s Appley Ever After Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP It’s A Girl, Samba, Wintergreen, Deck the Halls, Sauna, and Spiced inks. I die cut the apple basket from Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired) with the Catherine Pooler Bushel Basket Die and inked it with Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede ink (retired).

On the inside of the card I die cut a frame from Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 METALLIC JEWELS Kraft Stock with the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames dies. I also die cut another frame from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and used the negative piece.

Dimensions

For the third card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and then I scored the front of the card at 2-1/8″.

For this card, I chose a pumpkin die from the Sizzix Pumpkin Framelits (no longer available). Follow the same steps as in the previous two cards for cutting the flip window.

Next, I cut 3 pieces of pattern paper from the Honey Bee Stamps Halloween Harvest 6 x 6 Patterned Paper (discontinued) to 2 x 5-1/4″ and one to 4 x 5-1/4. I also die cut 2 pumpkins (of the same size) from the same paper. Then die cut a smaller pumpkin from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the same dies. I inked it with Tim Holtz Spiced Marmalade, Carved Pumpkin, and Peeled Paint Distress Inks. I stamped a Jack-O-Lantern face from the Papertrey Ink Pumpkin Expressions Mini Stamp Set with Midnight Ink. I also added splatters to it and the right side of the card front with Black Acrylic Paint and stamped bats from the Lawn Fawn Happy Haunting stampset.

I stamped 3 ghosts and more bats from the Lawn Fawn Happy Haunting and the sentiment from the Papertrey Ink Pumpkin Expressions Mini Stamp Sets onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Midnight Ink.

On the inside of the card I die cut a spider from Simon Says Stamp 100# BLACK Cardstock with the We R Memory Keepers 2-inch Spider die and the sentiment from some Honey Bee Stamps Halloween Harvest 6 x 6 Patterned Paper (discontinued) using the Pretty Pink Posh Happy Halloween Script Die.
