It's FINALLY Friday!! This has felt like the longest week ever. Thankfully my kids are feeling better, and since it's almost the weekend there will hopefully be time for us to get the tools we need to take apart my laptop to confirm the hard drive and whatnot that we need to order (for those unaware my laptop crashed last week and I lost a ton of video footage. It's my bread & butter that machine - I edit all my videos and photos and do ALL my work on it. Losing that has been rather devastating and just a tad stressful to say the least). My old Mac has been holding up OK in the meantime so I'm still able to get work done!!
OK on to the post at hand. Studio Katia just released a bunch of awesome new products (I will have a Release & Review video on that ASAP - this week got away from me!) and to celebrate they're having 2 days of blog hops!
There's a bunch of fabulous designers participating in these hops to give a ton of inspiration with the new products. If you didn't get here from Tracy's blog you can start at the beginning HERE <------click!
Here's what I made with some of the new products:
I was really inspired by the new Satin Rainbow Confetti mix - so I used the new Confetti Stencil on my card base and sponged on a bunch of different Distress ink Colors. Without removing the stencil I added Tonic's Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste - so they're sparkly confetti to boot!
I REALLY didn't want to cover any of the card base - so I heat embossed the Confetti Kindness stamp onto some Judikins embossable window plastic and die cut it with a circle wafer die. I then used the larger of the new Fancy Circle wafer dies to create my frame, adhered the sentiment to it and made it into a shaker. I added a bunch of the new Sparkling Stars Chunky Glitter to the shaker, and adhered a bunch of the Iridescent Clear Crystals to the frame. In real life this card is ALLLLL bling!
I finished off the inside of the card with a sentiment from the new Label Messages stamp set, and stamped the little confetti/starburst images from the Confetti Kindness stamp set with those same Distress Inks and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
