Snail Mail Cards with Rachel and Candice

Hello friends and Happy New Year! It's Rachel here with a card featuring the new Snail Mail Stamp Set. I combined this adorable set with both the Backyard Bugs and Turtley Awesome stamp sets to create a fun little scene.

To start, I first trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock slightly larger than 4.25" x 5.5". I then stamped my images using the masking technique and some Gina K. Designs Masking Magic Sheets to create a single layer card. While my masking pieces were still in place, I then blended the background sky with some Spun Sugar and Milled Lavender Distress Oxide Inks.

Copic Colors Used: Mailbox: W2, W4, W6, W9; Greens: G20, G21, G24, YG67; White/Grays: 0, C0, C2, C4; Reds: R14, R46, R89; Mailbox Base: E30, E23, E25; Turtle Shell: E40, E41, E42, E43, E44

Next, I blended the grass area with Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide Ink and splattered both the top and bottom distressed areas with diluted opaque white paint. I then removed my masking sheets and allowed my panel to dry completely before trimming it down to 4.25" x 5.5". Next, I colored my images with Copic Markers and then stamped my sentiment into the top left corner with black ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Wishing you all a lovely weekend!

Hello and Happy New Year! Candice with you on this first day of 2021 and sharing a sweet Valentine's Day card using the adorable Snail Mail set!

I used these Sunny Studio products to create my card:

• Snail Mail stamps & coordinating dies
• Frilly Frames Chevron dies
• Fancy Frames Rectangle dies
• Sweet Word die
• Basic Mini Shape dies
• Gingham Pastels paper

For the background, I trimmed my pattern paper and created my deckled edge frame by cutting out the center with my trimmer and using foam tape to adhere to the front. I then created multiple envelopes using my Cameo Silhouette, adhered around the outside edge of the card and trimmed with scissors. I added some hearts and colored in red Stickles.

Next, I stamped the mailbox, snail, envelopes and hearts, colored them with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I then die cut multiples of the sweet with the top layer in kraft and put a heart at the end in red velvet paper to create the word "sweetheart". To put it together, I added the images under the sweet and added the sentiment on a stitched banner under the mailbox! 

Valentine's are my favorite cards to make and I look forward to making many more and I hope you are inspired to start yours! Thank you for stopping by!
