Studio Katia 3rd Birthday Celebration! - UPDATED with winner!

UPDATE: WINNER!!!  

Mirella, you are the winner of my Studio Katia $25 gift card, please send an email to rutabagapiedesigns @gmail dot com for instructions on claiming your prize.  Congratulations!


These are fabulous! The yellow balloons look great on the first card, and the shading on the balloons on the second one is perfection! Plus, the pop of vibrant colours against the black - superb! I am following your blog now :-)



Hello and welcome to the Studio Katia 3rd Anniversary Blog Hop!

We are celebrating with a Blog Hop and a New Release. This Release includes 5 new Clear Stamp Sets and 1 set of Coordinating Dies, 1 new Stand Alone Creative Die, 2 new Stencils and lots of new Embellishments!


I'm so excited to be joining Studio Katia and their Design Team for this special occasion!  

I've created two cards using brand new products that are being released today in the Studio Katia store. I've linked them all below for your shopping convenience! 

For my first card, I used the Party Balloons Stencil to create a grouping of yellow balloons and then popped Kobi from Kobi Makes A Wish Stamp/Die set up in the forefront! I inked a little floor so Kobi had something to stand on and then stamped that gorgeous sentiment from It's Your Birthday over the balloons!

My second card I started with that b/w polka dot base and layered diecut balloons from the Shaker Balloon Die. I created the ink shadowing with Ranger Distress Inks, using 2 tones on each balloon to give it the rounded look, leaving the center lighter. I added little bows, also cut from the Shaker Balloon Die.

I finished off both cards with the Pastel Rainbow Confetti and Silver Fever Fusion for a little sparkle!
