Feline Meow-tivated Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

MEOW-tivated!

It's a new year, are you feeling MEOW-tivated? If not, this card by Tatiana is sure to help get you in the mood to do some crafting! 

To create this card she started by stamping and coloring the image of the crafty kitty and some accessories from our Newton's Crafty Cardio Stamp Set. She added fun dots to his cardio outfit and white gel pen accents too. She cut the image out using the coordinating Newton's Crafty Cardio Die Set. For the background she used our Petite Paw Prints Stencil with blue ink and added some sequins and paint splatters too! 

The sentiment "feling Meow-tivated" is also from our  Newton's Crafty Cardio Stamp Set and she embossed it in white onto a black circle that was cut out using our Circle Frames Die Set. 

She also created a fun pop of black and white pattern on the side of the card. To do this, she embossed a bunch of the smaller images from the Newton's Crafty Cardio Stamp Set on black cardstock. What a fun effect! 

We're definitely motivated to get our crafty ambitions out this year! How about you!?

1st Grade Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

Ready for 1st Grade!

Today we have a wonderful school themed card by Tatiana. She created this card to send to a family member who is starting first grade this year! What a wonderful way to celebrate such a fun milestone!

She began by creating a chalkboard by cutting a square with our Frames Squared Die Set from black cardstock and adding white ink smudges over it to look like chalk. Over this she added the custom sentiment "1st grade 2021" by cutting letters and numbers out using our Essential Alphabet Die Set. 

To add to the school theme, she used the image of Newton with the globe from our Newton’s Graduation Stamp Set . She also added books and an apple from our Classy Teachers Stamp Set and pencils using a little image from our Newton’s Crafty Cardio Stamp Set! Such a fun way to combine all of these sets! She colored the images in fun primary colors and then added details to the kitty, giving him a fun striped fur pattern! The images were all cut our with the coordinating Newton’s Graduation Die Set, Classy Teachers Die Set, and Newton’s Crafty Cardio Die Set. 

On the gray background panel, she also stamped some of the smaller images from our Classy Teachers Stamp Set to make a soft pattern! 

 

We often celebrate graduations but this fun card today reminds us that starting a new year is a reason to celebrate too!
