RemARKable Ink Big Blog Hop - Valentines!


Happy Sunday and welcome to the Remarkable Ink Big Blog Hop! This month our theme is Valentines! You may just be starting out on the hop, here with me, Katrina Wolfe at Katrina's Kreative Heart or you may have come from the person before me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup is below and will help you move along the hop from blog to blog so you won't miss any of the amazing projects along the way. Again, you are on my blog, Katrina's Kreative Heart, with me, Katrina Wolfe.
Today, I have another project using the amazing Sure Do Love You bundle paired up with Heart Happiness stamp set found in the 2018 Occasions catalog. I just LOVE these products as they pair together flawlessly. And when I saw the "watercolor" looking striped heart in the Heart Happiness stamp set, my first thought was "baby wipe" technique so, I finally decided to give it a try, and here are the results!
I used Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo and Calypso Coral re-inkers on a makeshift ink pad made from Baby Wipes and I love the effect. You could do any combination of colors you wish. I chose mine based on the colors found in the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. 
Here is the finished card:
I hope you are inspired to pull out your re-inkers and some Baby Wipes and see what cool color combinations you can come up with to tell someone special how much you love them!
Thanks so much for taking part in our bog hop, there are so many amazing ideas and inspiration you won't want to miss. Remember, you're currently on my blog, Katrina's Kreative Heart with Katrina Wolfe, so check the blog hop lineup below to see who is next in the list. 
Happy Hopping,

Heart Happiness - 2018 Spring Occasions Catalog Awesomeness

Hello and Happy Sunday! Well, today happens to be the coldest day of the year thus far here in CNY. We actually woke up to minus 30! Brrrr. So, the best thing to do to stay warm on a day like this you ask? Well, it's head to the craft room! I pulled out some fun new stuff from the new 2018 Spring Occasions catalog.
I'm completely in love with the Painted with Love Specialty DSP and the entire suite of product along with this adorable stamp set, Heart Happiness. And for inspiration, I used the sketch we are using on my Facebook page for our weekly challenge and this is what I came up with.

Instructions:

Measurements:

Rich Razzleberry Cardstock 8.5" x 5.5"; 4.25" x 3.25"; 1.5" x .75"
Painted with Love DSP 4" x 5.25" and cut at 2.5" and flipped the 1.5"piece
Powder Pink 4" x 3"; 2.5" x .75"
Gold Foil  2" x .75"
Scraps of Whisper White to stamp hearts
Scraps of Gold Glimmer to die cut leaves

Directions:

Fold the Rich Razzleberry at 4.25" for the card base. Adhere the DSP to the card base, use the larger piece with the foiled side up and the smaller piece with the opposite side up. Run the Powder Pink  cardstock through the Big Shot with the Scattered Sequins Dynamic Embossing folder (hint: spritz the cardstock with a little water before embossing - this will soften the cardstock fibers and prevent cracking) Adhere this piece to the Rich Razzleberry layer that measures 4.25" x 3.25" and add to the card front in the center.
Stamp the "watercolor" look striped heart in Rich Razzleberry ink and the polka dot heart with Melon Mambo ink; run these through the Big Shot with the coordinating dies from the Lot's to Love Box Framelits dies and the Sweet and Sassy Layering Hearts Framelits. Adhere the striped heart with Stampin' Dimensionals. Banner the ends of the .75" pieces Powder Pink and Rich Razzleberry cardstock; die cut 3 of the leaves from the Lots to Love Box dies from the scraps of Gold Glimmer paper. Layer the Gold Foil and the Powder Pink, and Rich Razzleberry banners and adhere to the back side of the Melon Mambo polka dot heart with the Gold Foil leaves. Add these to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. 

And that completes today's card. Again, I just love these products. They're so fun and easy to design with and I will have more to come using these supplies as I'm having a ball playing...stay tuned. In the meantime, stay warm and Happy Stamping,

Sealed with Love - Hugs and Kisses

Hi guys! Happy Tuesday! Wow, I went 6 day's without internet service and had serious doubts I was even going to get this post out to you, but low and behold...I made it...phew....! Anyhoo, my addiction with this stamp set does continue, but this card was actually conceptualized accidentally! What I mean is, when making one of the other cards, I had punched out the sweetheart shaped piece from a half sheet of cardstock sitting on my desk. Well that half sheet was still sitting there and so I picked it up and went a head and folded it in half again (creating a card base) and that's all she wrote...I got this idea, and here it is!
 Supplies:
Stamp Set: Sealed with Love
Paper: Real Red 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" cut and scored 4 1/4" and scrap; Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4" and scrap for heart Sending Love DSP 2' x 5 1/4"
Ink: Real Red
Misc: Sweetheart punch; Sweet and Sassy Framelits; Falling Petals TIEF; Big Shot; Basic Pearls; Dimensionals; Fast Fuse

Directions: 
Punch the sweetheart shape from the bottom right corner of the card base and adhere the DSP to the left. Run a piece of scrap Real Red through the Big Shot with the 2nd largest heart framelit and a Whisper White piece with the next smaller size. Run the Real Red heart through again with the Falling Petals TIEF and adhere that to the card over the DSP. Stamp the Happy Valentine's Day in Real Red onto the Whisper White heart. and add that to the card with a Dimensional overlapping the Real Red heart. Add 3 small pearls to the bottom right. Add a piece of Whisper White to the inside of the card and while holding the card closed, stamp the Hugs and Kisses in the center of the punched heart.


 I hope you enjoyed today's "accidental" card. Please leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts. I would love to hear. Thank you and have a great day!
Happy Stamping,
Katrina
