Feeling Frosty Cards & Video Tutorial with Guest Laura Sterckz

Hi crafters! It's Laura Sterckx here from Making Cards Is Fun and I'm thrilled to be a Holiday Guest Designer for Sunny Studio. I decided to create two adorable winter cards featuring the Scenic Route and Frosty Friends Stamp Set. Make sure to watch the video tutorial for more information, tips and tricks! 

For my first card, I created an interactive panel using the Sliding Window dies. I assembled the slider and used patterned paper from the Very Merry 6x6 Paper Pad. I just love these designs and the winter scene paper I used is perfect to create quick and easy cards! 

I stamped, colored and die cut the adorable snowmen from the Frosty Friends Stamp Set. For my second card, I combined it with one of the little kids from the Fall Kiddos Stamp Set to make it look like the girl built the snowmen on the card. 

For the second card, I did quite a lot of fussy cutting and masking to create a fun winter village scene. This technique takes some time and effort but it's so worth it! I created an ink blended winter sky with Distress Oxide Inks and finished off both cards with heat embossed snowflakes. 

That's it for now! Thank you so much for stopping by. Sending big hugs!

Feeling Frosty Cards with Rachel and Candice

Hello! It's Rachel here and I have a fun double layer shaker card to share with you today featuring the new Feeling Frosty Stamp Set! I love shaker cards and making them double layered adds twice the fun because it adds room for some dimension.

The Feeling Frosty Set is filled with the cutest snowmen! I started my card by stamping my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and coloring them with Copies. I used the coordinating Feeling Frosty Dies to cut them out. For my background, I trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and blended it with some Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink. I then splattered this piece with some water to give the blending some texture.

Once dry, I then splattered it generously with some diluted Opaque White Paint to resemble falling snow. Once my background was ready, I added a few pine trees and a stitched snow drift using the Woodlands Border Die Set and some white card stock. Since this was my bottom layer, I adhered these pieces with liquid adhesive directly to my ink blended background.

I then liberally added some chunky white glitter to this first layer and used .25" wide 3D Foam Tape and a piece of clear acetate to seal it off. Once this layer was secure, I started to work on my second layer. I added another stitched snow drift to this layer once again using the Woodlands Borders Die. I glued this piece directly to the acetate below it. I also did the same with my snowmen and gift images.

I then repeated the same process with adding some chunky white glitter, foam tape, and acetate to this second layer. I used less glitter on the second layer so that it wouldn't cover my snowmen too much when laying flat.

To finish off my card, I added a thin white white frame to which I had attached a gorgeous frame of garland in white using the new Christmas Garland Frame Die. I love the final effect!

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today! If you want a good video tutorial for this type of technique, check out THIS video by Jennifer McGuire. Have a lovely weekend!

It's Friday and I wish you all a crafty weekend ahead! Candice here and can I tell you how excited I am to be sharing my first official post with you on the Sunny Studio's Design Team?!  Just look at how cute this new Holiday release is!

I truly love how Sunny Studio stamps sets can easily be combined!  For this card, I used:

• Feeling Frosty stamp set
• Feeling Frosty coordinating dies
• Scenic Route stamp set
• Scenic Route coordinating dies
• Fall Kiddos stamp set
• Fall Kiddos coordinating dies
• Layered Snowflake Frame die (snowflakes)
• Woodland Borders die (snowhills)
• Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper

I began my card by creating an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base which fits perfectly into the size 9A envelopes.

I first stamped the snowmen, houses & kiddos, colored them with Copic markers, and used the coordinating dies listed above for each set. I then heat embossed the sentiment in silver and trimmed to a banner.

For the background, I inked the sky using peacock feathers, tumbled glass & shabby shutters, gluing the houses right at the green glow. Next, I created my snowhills from the AMAZING new Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper.  I know I will be going back to this pack often, so many possibilities with this set!

To put the card together, I layered the snowhills and pop dotted the images along them, adding the sentiment along the bottom. For the final touch, I added a bit of sparkle with some glitter snowflakes.
