Hello again everyone!
Welcome back here today and thanks for stopping by for my second project. After the coffee card I’ve shared earlier I now have a tag to share with you:
I just love those fish from the Fish Set with Swedish Text about Fishing – they are so cute with their goggles and big mouths!
I’ve die cut two tags the same size and colored them in blue with Distress Inks.
Then I’ve used the text from the Fish Set and the lower grass border from the Grass Kit on both tags on exactly the same spot. Thanks to my stamping tool that wasn’t a challenge. Afterwards I’ve die cut a circle from one of the tags.
The fish were stamped on coloring paper and colored in with no visible lines. The goggles are covered with Glossy Accents.
To decorate the tag I’ve added some die cut water pants, an anchor and a few bubbles.
I wanted some text on my tag but don’t have any that go with a fish theme. So I’ve simply die cut some single letters from blue cardstock to write the word “Blubb”. I don’t have any idea if this is international but in german it means the sound a bubble makes when plopping out or bursting. So I thought that would go great with my tag – and a “blubb” just says it all. 😉 I’ve used a white gel marker to add some highlights to the letters and then covered them with Glossy Accents for some shine.
In the end I’ve put both tags on top of each other using a lot of foam tape. That helps to create some dimension. The bigger fish is glued to the lower tag, the bubbles coming from its mouth are made using white Enamel Accents.
And here I have another pic. I know, it’s blurry, I just took it to show the distance between those two tags and the dimensions I wrote about.
Have a happy day!
Hugs, Kathrin

Hello everyone!
It’s Kathrin here again today with my first project for you today to hopefully give you a new idea of how to use a few of those amazing stamps by Vildastamps.
On this card I’ve used the Coffee Kit stamp set and the Scrap & Mixed Media Kit #2. I’ll tell you more about the details a little longer, with some close ups of the card.
In the background I’ve used a brown and black designer’s paper. I’ve also added a little doily here since those remind me of those old fashioned cafès where you get one of these under your cup.
Since I wanted some more contrast I’ve added a black cardstock rectangle that I used a border punch on one of the edges. For decorations I’ve added that “energy” paper strip that goes into a tab from foil I had lying around. The arrow clip points at the cup and brings coffee and energy together. I also added a flourish cut from white cardstock that looks like steam coming out from the cup.
I’ve also added some die cut letters that build the word coffee. The letters were cut from black cardstock, then I’ve added some highlights with a white sharpie and covered them with Glossy Accents.
Here’s a close up of the main element of my card.
On the just slightly patterned paper here I’ve stamped one of the stamps from the Scrap & Mixed Media Set 2 that reminds me of those brims a cup can leave on a table. I think this one just goes great with the coffee cup.
The cup has been stamped twice. On the second image I only colored in the lid and the sleeve and cut thouse out individually. Then I’ve run the sleeve through my paper crimper to make it look like made from corrugated paper. The I’ve glued the sleeve to the cup using 3D tape.
And here’s the little trick I’ve added to the card. The lids were cut off from the cup and glued together using 3D tape, addig a piece of white cardstock inbetween. Then I’ve cut this white cardstock more or less in the shape of the cup, just cutting it smaller. On this I’ve stamped “this one is on me!” using single letter stamps, creating some kind of a voucher.
Since the cup is glued to the card with 3D tape that is only applied to the edges of the cup the lid with the voucher can easily be slid into the cup.
Hope you liked this card and will be back later today for my second project.
Hugs, Kathrin

Hello Everyone! Today I want to share with you a card that I created using the super Adorable Dragon Osten stamp from Vilda Stamps.
To create my card first I stamped this cutie dragon onto 110 lb. plain white card stock. I then colored the image in with the following Copic colors:
Dragon: YG09, YG06, YG11, Y00, 0, Y17, Y06, RV21, R20, RV000
I then fussy cut the dragon out and set him aside. Next I cut all my card mats and frames with dies and inked the edges with Distress Ink in Vintage Photo. I then made a stencil for my cloud background and blended Distress Ink in Mermaid Lagoon, and Stormy Sky to create my cloud scene. Thank you for stopping by. I hope that my card has inspired you to try out your own creations using these Adorable stamps from Vilda Stamps.

Hello there…
I’ve had some fun with both stencils and sprays, together with a travel themed stamp from Vilda Stamps this time. I’ve used a stamp that can be used for pocket page scrapbooking, as well as a statement in a travel themed mini album or a handmade card. The stamp is found in a set of two travel themed stamps, V767 (Småkort semester A6).
Here you can se the pattern paper that I’ve created with Brusho powder and water. I’ve also used a brick wall stencil with red ink, that I’ve used the left over ink from, to ”stamp” it to the paper. I tried different red hues of ink before I settled for the Fired Brick distress ink from Tim Holtz/Ranger.
I’ll be showing you a couple of versions of making a card like this.
Here’s the base. I’ve cut the pattern paper with a die, that’s called Old paper.
You could decorate it with travel themed die cuts, like a suitcase and an aeroplane together with some arrows. Perhaps the black paper is too much of a contrast for this card, but I’m hoping you’ll get the idea.
You could also die cut a word out of funky foam.
It’s nice to add on some texture. Here I’ve die cut a punchinella piece of paper. I’ve divided it in two, to make it stretch to both sides of the pocket page card.
Here I’m combining both the punchinella die cut and the word die cut.
I think this might be the best way to go about it, in my book :). I like the dimention and texture that the card has.
