kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. One last card for my Valentine’s Day card series. Sorry this one is a bit late.

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, another piece to 3-1/2 x 5-1/4. I stamped the background using the drizzle from the A-GLAZE-ing 4×8 Stamp Set with Catherine Pooler Designs Sand Castle Ink. I also splattered some more ink with CP Sand Castle, Stampin’ Up! Real Red, and CP Cotton Candy Inks. I added some pattern paper, measuring 4 x 5-1/4″ from my stash, behind the panel.

I die cut the donuts from Stampin’ Up! Chocolate Chip 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), Stampin’ Up! Mint Macaron 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), Stampin’ Up! Poppy Parade 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock, Simon Says Stamp Cotton Candy 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock and Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Tiny Donut Dipper Die Set.

I used ink to add some dimension to the donut frostings. I used CP Cotton Candy, Stampin’ Up! Real Red, Stampin’ Up! Just Jade (retired), and Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather inks.

I stamped the sentiment from the A-GLAZE-ing 4×8 Stamp Set onto Stampin’ Up! Chocolate Chip 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired) with Lawn Fawn YETI Pigment Ink and WOW Opaque Bright White Super Fine Embossing Powder. I popped it up by using 3M Foam Tape.

I finished off the card by adding my Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen to add glitter to the donuts, Sugared Surprise Sprinkles Embellishment Mix, Crushed Grapes Gloss Crystal Drops, Autumn Red Crystal Drops, Nuvo Dragon Scales Dream Drops, Nuvo Carnation Pink Crystal Drops, and Nuvo Gloss White Crystal Drops.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Sprinkles on my Donut 3×3 Stamp Set with Stampin’ Up! Real Red Ink and die cut with the coordinating die. I also added a mini donut.

Using the Positive and Negative to Make Two Cards feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. When I’m making cards, I like to be as non-wasteful as possible. With these cards, I am using the Positive and Negative die cuts to make two cards. I am using products from the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box (from Catherine Pooler Designs) as well as some others. See how easy this was below.

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 another to 3-3/4 x 4″ which I stenciled the panel using the Ditsy Holly Stencil (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) and CP Rouge, Cotton Candy, Matcha and Sea Glass Inks.

I die cut a circle (measuring 2-7/16″) from the left side of the panel (save this for another card) as well as two circles (measuring 2-3/8″ and 2-3/4″) from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Stampin’ Up! LAYERING CIRCLES Dies (retired). I colored the scallop circle using the direct-to-paper technique with CP Rouge Ink and stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) on the smaller one with Sea Glass Ink.

I stamped the snowflake from the Baking Spirits Bright Stampset using CP Cotton Candy Ink and the detail with Rouge then die cut it with the coodinating dies. I embellished it with Sparkling Sugar Sparkles Glitter by WOW.

I die cut the spatula and rolling pin from the CP Mix & Bake dieset. I used Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ for the spatula and colored it with Matcha Ink. The handle and all the rolling pin was die cut from CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Pattern Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

Lastly I finished the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Here We Come A Caroling Stampset (this was part of the Winterhaven Stamp of Approval 2017 release) with CP Rouge Ink and added a mitten and spatula.

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″. I also cut a piece of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Patterned 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 4 x 5-1/4″. I die cut a piece of white cardstock with the Hobnob Cover Plate Die and used that as a stencil with some CP Matcha Ink to add some interest to the background panel.

Next I cut a strip of CP Bushel and a Peck 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 1 x 4-1/4″ and one from CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Patterned Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) to 1-1/4 x 4-1/4″. I used the left over stenciled circle (2-7/16″) from the previous card and added a Vellum scallop circle measuring 2-7/16″ which I die cut using the Stampin’ Up! LAYERING CIRCLES Dies (retired). I stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with Tsukineko Stazon MIDI JET BLACK Ink.

I used a 1-3/8″ circle punch to cut some circles from same white panel I die cut with the Hobnob Cover Plate Die. And colored them using the direct-to-paper technique and CP Rouge and Matcha Inks.

I finished the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

On the inside of the card I cut two strips of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 1 x 4-1/4″ and 1-1/8 and 4-1/4″.

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).

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.

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. The third card in my series features the Catherine Pooler Designs Joyful Thanks Sentiments Stamp Set combined with the Appley Ever After Stamp Set and the Woven Cover Plate Die. I like that the Joyful Thanks Sentiments are large and bold sentiments so they make a nice impact on your card.

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 stamped the background with Samba, Cotton Candy, Lime Rickey, and Over Coffee inks using the Appley Ever After Stamp Set.

Then I die cut a piece of Vellum with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangles to cover the top panel. I also cie cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Woven Cover Plate Die and then cut it down to 1-1/2″ in width.

I stamped the sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Designs Joyful Thanks Sentiments Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Over Coffee Ink. Then used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

I finished off the card by adding some Appolonia Sequin Mix.

I left the inside of the card of the card blank and stamped an apple.
