Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Karin Åkesdotter

Hi Everyone! I'm Karin Åkesdotter from Peppermint Patty’s Papercraft, and I am so excited to be collaborating with Sunny Studio this month. I'm here today to share some cards I've made with Sunny’s wonderful Summer Release.

This first project is a super fun one. I just LOVE Mendi's clever box design Wrap Around Box die set that closes up like two hearts at the top, no strings or adhesive needed to close this box. And with the perfect panel die and cute little tags the possibilities for cute designs with this are endless. 

Here I used the fun cloud paper that come with the Summer Splash patterned paper pack and the adorable sloth is of course from the Silly Sloth set. My box is for a mini gift for my sister for her long flight to the Maldives later this year - it will hold a sleeping mask and earplugs so she'll sleep like a sloth there ;)

My next project is a CAS card, with a fast and easy design that looks like it was more work with lots of elements and texture. My favorite type of designs. Here I used the wonderful Frilly Frames Stripes dies for the panel and the stitched rectangle is from the Wrap Around Box dies and then simply stamped and die cut some of the images from the Silly Sloth set.

My last card for today showcases the super adorable Fabulous Flamingos set which holds lots of fun and sweet extra images to use for your summer/vacation cards. So much fun to color and play around with for different card designs. Here I die cut a window through which you can view the ocean - another wonderful paper from the Summer Splash patterned paper pack.
