Sparkly gel-a-tins Spring Rains

Hello, gel-a-tins fans! It's Jessi here and I am excited to share another card using the Raindrops are Falling and Easter Bunnies stamp sets!

Every time I see the woman/umbrella stamp from Raindrops are Falling, my crafting mind always leaning towards paper-piecing! This image is so adorable and perfect for that technique. To make the raindrops, I decided to use square shape sequins instead of the traditional raindrops. I love the extra sparkle!

Thank you for stopping by today! We would love to see your gel-a-tins creation! Have you 'LIKED' us on Facebook? More gel-a-tins inspiration can be seen on our Pinterest page.

Easter Greetings from gel-a-tins!

Hello, gel-a-tins fans! Jessi here, from Kissin' Krafts. Today I have created an elegant Easter card using gel-a-tins' Easter Bunnies Stamp set.

 

 

 I used a cross die to create the diecut on the paper layer. To highlight the cross, I placed a piece of patterned paper under the diecut area. The Easter sentiment is stamp in brown ink below the diecut. One strip of patterned paper is added to the bottom of the card. The final touch was to add a few individual gems from gelly gem rolls to add elegant effect to the card.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoy the rest of you week!

Sweet gel-a-tins Thank You

Hello, gel-a-tins fans! It is Jessi here from Kissin' Krafts. Today I am excited to share my newest creation using gel-a-tins products.

 

I would like to show you this card using gel-a-tins Sweet Hearts, Honey Bear and gelly gem roll-ups: 

 

To decorate the cupcake, I used black embossing powder to raise the edges of the outline. The frosting is made using puffy paint. Markers were used to color in the hearts and cupcake liner. Gelly gem roll-ups are made to look like sprinkles on cupcake.

This card is created using a variety of patterned papers. The sentiment (from Honey Bear) is stamped, repeatedly, onto one of the strips of paper.

Raindrops are falling!

Hello, everyone! It's Jessi here from Kissin' Krafts! I don't know about you, but I love the rain! And here in Texas, the spring tends to be the only time we really get any rain!

 

Here is the card I created using gel-a-tins, Raindrops are Falling Stamp set:

 

I absolutely love paper-piecing with stamps! As soon as I saw the stamp with the woman and the umbrella, I knew that was what I was going to do!

I created the 'window' by using a circle diecut and cutting the circle out of the patterned paper. The sentiment is stamped onto a different diecut and added using foam dots. Colorful twine is wrapped around the card to add another pop of red to the card.

Thank you for stopping by! If it happens to be raining where you are, hope you stay dry and find some time to create!

LOVE is in the air!

Happy Monday, gel-a-tins fans! It's Jessi here from Kissin' Krafts! Can you feel the LOVE in the air? Valentine's Day is just around the corner! Are you ready for it?

Today I have a cute paper-piecing card to share with you:

 

 

Using the gel-a-tins, Love is in the air, and a variety of papers from Echo Park's This & That collection, I stamped the images on the patterned papers and hand-cut the images out. To include the birds' legs, I stamped the images on the cardstock and placed the paper pieces over the images. After the cut-outs were glued to the cardstock, I added the white cardstock onto a back layer of patterned paper. The final touch was the sentiment stamped onto a hand cutout cloud.

Thank you for stopping by today! Hope you have a wonderful day!

STOP in the name of gel-a-tins!

Hooray, it is February! Who else LOVES this month? Can you smell the LOVE in the air? It's Jessi from Kissin' Krafts and today I am excited to show this card that I made using the gel-a-tins STOP gelly jr. stamp!

I have always enjoyed the red, pink and aqua color combo and decided that this was the perfect card to make using those colors!

The STOP gelly jr stamp is stamped in pink and hand-cut. Using a variety of stickers and chipboard, I created the rest of the "sentiment". To add to the card, I used different embossing folders to add to the back layer and pink strip. The final piece to add was the simple twine,even though it is some what messed up in the picture ;)!

gel-a-tins LOVE!

Hello, everyone! It's Jessi here, from Kissin' Krafts! Can you feel the love in the air? With Valentine's Day next month, have you started you cards or projects yet?

I made a CAS card using the gel-a-tins Gingerbread House Set and Cheverontastic Set:

I love the kraft, white and red combination, which makes it perfect for Valentine's! Using one of the Cheverontastic stamps to create the fun border at the bottom of the card. A red heart is added for a special POP. Foam letter stickers are used for the sentiment on the card. The last step is to round the corners of the card.

Honey Bear Love with gel-a-tins!

***See post for Prickley Pear CHA Blog Hop below***

Hello, gel-a-tins friends! Thank you for stopping by today! It is Jessi P. here and I am excited to share you a card using the Honey Bear Stamp Set.

I don't waste time skipping from Christmas to Valentine's projects! So I decided that the cute bear from the Honey Bear set would make a great card.

Here it is:

 

I stamped the bear in brown and used a variety of markers to color in the bear. (One New Year's Resolution for myself...learn to color with markers!!!) Next was to cut out the bear. I also cut a slit between the bear's arm and leg to slip in the twine as I put the card together.

 

Using a heart shape punch, I created the balloons by stamping the sentiment and using ink to color the hearts. Twine is attached to make the balloon strings from the heart to the bear;s hand.

 

The last step was to piece the card together. Using a patterned paper for the background.

Here is the New Year's card:

 

I used the gold gelly gem roll to highlight the year. A polka dot embossing folder was used to add dimension to the background. To draw attention to the dots, I stamped a dot image from the "Gingerbread House" set on thirteen random dots.

gel-a-tins Warm Thank You

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! What do you on the day after? Shop? Clean? Create? I don't know about you, but I try to get my Thank You cards done quickly!

It's Jessi here and today I am sharing a warm Thank You card using a couple stamps from a couple of different gel-a-tins sets.

 

I choose to paper-piece the house from the Gingerbread House Stamp set. Once the house was complete, I used puffy paint to add the snow to the house. The final touch was to add the wreath and gold gem accents (from the gelly gem rolls).

 

 

The sentiment (from the Honey Bear Stamp Set) was stamped onto the banner. The first part of the sentiment was done using a variety of letter stickers. The banner was attached to the card using foam dots.

 

 

Thank you for stopping by today! Hope you have a grand day!

gel-a-tins Cheveron Ornament

Hello, gel-a-tins fans! It's Jessi from Kissin' Krafts and I am excited to share this project with you! (I might be so addicted I will probably be making more soon!) I am stepping away from my normal cards today and sharing with you an ornament I made for Christmas trees.

I used Cheverontastic for this project:

I made the dough (similar to salt dough (but made with baking soda and cornstarch) and rolled it out like I was making cookies. The next stamp is to stamp the dough. (You can do this two different ways. You can stamp the dough and then use cookie cutters or vice versa. I like cutting the dough and then stamping). Make sure to use a straw to make the hole at the top of the ornament. And bake away.

I loved how these turned out. This was the first batch that I made, so it was a learning process. I did have to throw away half the batch due to cracking. But hopefully, I have learned the cause and know now how to fix.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a great gel-a-tins day!

gel-a-tins Thanksgiving!

I know that Halloween is this week, but I decided to make a Thanksgiving card using the amazing gel-a-tins Damask stamp set.  I have always thought that gold was the perfect color to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Here is the card that I created-

 

I used the bigger damask stamp to create the background of the card. The small damask added the perfect touch to the sentiment.

Hello, Gel-a-tins fans! Can you believe that Halloween is next week?!? So why not another festive Halloween card?  Today's card using the single stamp Fall Kitty and the bat stamps from the Witchy Poo Set.

Take a look-

 

The first step I took in making this card was to stamp the Fall Kitty image onto kraft cardstock. I colored in the image with a variety of markers. Once the ink was dried, I hand-cut the image. I adhered the patterned paper to the card and used a die-cut to cut out the circle on the front.  Using the same die-cut, I also cut a circle out of matching orange cardstock and attached to the "inside" of the card.  

 

 

It was time to start piecing together the card. I stamped one bat onto the orange circle. The second bat was hand-cut and adhered to the piece of twine. The kitty was glued to the front of the card off to the side of the circle cut-out. I decided to add sticker embellishments to bottom and viola, the card is finished!

Gel-a-tins Haunted House

I am loving all the Halloween projects the talented gel-a-tins DT has been showing you! Of course, I have decided to another Halloween card using the Witchy Poo Stamp set and a touch of the Chrevrontastic Set.

Hope you like it!

A close-up of the bats and house from the Witchy Poo Stamp set.

To add a splash of orange to the card, I decided to use the Chrevrontastic set to help highlight the haunted house.  And of course, I decided to use a few of my favorite foam dots to add dimension to the card. (The moon and the sign pop off the page.)

BOO with Witchy Poo

Are you enjoying all the Halloween projects the talented design team has been sharing? I know that I am!

Today I have another project for you using the Witchy Poo stamp set.

When I saw these ghost shape cards, I instantly visioned the ghost holding a banner. So I stamped the Witchy Poo banner and cut the banner out. I also stamped the spider webs and attached stickers to spell B-O-O. The final touch was adding the twine bows.

Witchy Poo Halloween!

Hello, gel-a-tins fans! Jessi here, and today I am showing you another card using the wonderful Halloween stamp set, Witchy Poo! I am loving this stamp! There are countless options with this set!

Here is the card I made using the witch and bats stamps from the set:

Once I saw the flying witch, I knew that I wanted to create her with a full moon behind here. And to add some more details, I added the bats to the card. (Also, I added a foam dot to one of the bats to make it 'pop' of the card.

To finish the card, I added the sentiment.
