Easter Wishes Easter Animals Card with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today sharing an Easter card using the new and adorable Easter Wishes stamp set and dies. I love the sweet little animals in this set, so of course I had to feature them on my card. Let's get started on how this card came together.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Easter Wishes Easter Themed Animal Card by Lindsey Sams

I began with an A2 sized card base cut from a light yellow card stock. I then cut a smaller stitched rectangle to build my scene on. I stamped my sentiment in the center of the stitched rectangle, and then I used a circle stencil and some lavender ink to create the dotted background. I used a strip of green paper cut with a grass border to ground my scene.

After I had the background prepared, I stamped and colored my images using Copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating Easter Wishes dies. Then, I just had to build my scene. I attached the stamped images with adhesive and foam tape. To help tie in the lavender, I backed my stitched rectangle with some lavender card stock.

I love how this card turned out and the soft colors are perfect for spring. I hope you enjoyed the results and will give this adorable set a try. I can't wait to see what you guys create. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Friends & Family Poem Card with Emily

Hi, Emily here. Today, I'm featuring the Friends & Family stamp set and coordinating Friends & Family Word Dies

Sunny Studio Stamps: Friends & Family Floral Friend Themed Card by Emily Leiphart

I wanted to create a longer verse or poem with the sentiments so I stacked two sentiments which would normally be used separately. The first scripted "friends" word was stamped in a slightly darker grey ink than the second and the leaves were stamped in an even lighter shade of grey.

The sponging of the background panel matches the teals used in the flowers in the split laurel. Thanks so much for stopping by!

That Sucks Vacuum Shaker Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and I'm back with a card featuring the new That Sucks stamp set. I decided to do a simple design and add a shaker window inside.

Sunny Studio Stamps: That Sucks Shaker Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card I stamped and coloured two vacuum cleaners with some Copic Markers and die cut them out using the coordinating That Sucks Dies. I now needed to work on the background. I used two shades of pink and one reddish pink Distress Ink and ink blended the background on some watercolour paper, then flicked a paintbrush that was wet so I could get the water droplet effect. I then heat set it and used some circle dies to cut an opening. Once the panel was ready to go I worked on my shaker portion.

I adhered the left over circle to a piece of scrap paper and then took two pieces of foam tape together and cut it in half to make skinner strips. I went around the outside of the circle until there were no gaps. I used that spare piece of paper that I adhered the circle too so I could adhere my foam tape to it. I then filled the circle with some sequins by Pretty Pink Posh. I then took my panel again and added a piece of acetate behind my window and then adhered that down to my shaker piece, lining up the background so the colours line up.

To finish up my card I adhered on the vacuum cleaners with foam tape and stamped the sentiment from the same That Sucks stamp set with black ink directly on the background and then adhered my entire panel to a card base.

I hope you enjoyed my card today and come back the rest of the week for more inspiration!

Introducing Our Newest Team Member: Amy Yang!

Hello there!  I am so thrilled to introduce you to our newest creative team member today!  Please join me in welcoming Amy Yang to the blog!  I am a huge fan and I just know you will be too (if you aren't already).  :)


Hi there! Amy here and I am so excited to joining the Sunny Studio team! For my first post I wanted to make a card using the adorable images from Froggy Friends stamp set. I love how versatile this set is; you can use it to make cards for almost any occasion.  With Valentine's day around the corner I decided to create a love themed card to share with you today.

First, I trimmed Bristol paper and Masking paper to 4"x 4". Then, I die cut the bottom half of the masking paper with a circle die and used it to mask off areas for ink blending on the Bristol paper. With the blending tool, I applied Distress inks in Broken China and Salty Ocean for the water. I also used Scattered Straw and Picked Raspberry for the skies. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set using Archival ink.

For the images, I stamped on white card stock, colored it using Copic markers and fussy cut them. Then, I adhered the cut images to the front panel. I used doubled sided foam tape behind the frogs to add dimension. I also added Wink of Stella to the hearts and the flowers to make it sparkle. Lastly, I adhered the front panel to the card base.

Timeless Tulips Garden Card by Lexa

Hello everyone. Lexa here today with a multi-color tulips garden card. It screams spring! I must say that I'm not good at building stamps like this, but once I keep practicing and get used to it, it's really fun and addictive. Timeless Tulips helps you create effortless beautiful flowers in minutes. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Tulip Sunshine Themed Card by Lexa Levana

I start with a piece of 4.25"x 5.5" white cardstock with rounded edges. I blended Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Shabby Shutters Distress Inks for the background. I stamped my tulips with a bunch of pink, red, purple, yellow and green dye inks for the leaves. I use my acrylic block, and it works just fine.  After I finished stamping all of the elements I die cut all of them together with Timeless Tulips coordinating dies. I must say that I struggled a bit and found it hard to arrange all the tulips together, since I'm not really a flower girl. But, I'm pretty happy with the result.

Do you miss the sunshine after all the snow and winter? This is a great card to give for your special one on an early spring day. I stamped a sentiment from Sunny Sentiments with a blue ink. I finished my card with various size of clear sequins.

Here's a closer look of my card. Look how beautiful the tulips are! Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you have an awesome day!

Color Me Happy Rainbow Card With Vanessa

Hi everyone! Vanessa here with a card using Color Me Happy and Color Word Die

Who doesn't like rainbows? Or hearts? On my card, I combined both.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Color Me Happy Rainbow Color Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I first inked a scrap of cardstock with various inks and die-cut my word from it. Then I die-cut the word from black cardstock, layered both and adhered it to the card. Now I stamped the rest of the sentiment and the hearts around the focal point. Finally, I adhered matching sequins.

Froggy Friends Valentine's Day Cards With Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today sharing a little set of Valentine's Day cards that I created using Froggy Friends. The little frogs in this set are so adorable, and there are so many sentiments to go along with them. I made these cards simple, and they would be great to mass produce for your little's class Valentine's cards. Let's get started on how these cards came together.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Froggy Friends Frog Themed Valentine's Day Card for Kids by Lindsey Sams
          
To begin, I selected some fun 6x6" Valentine patterned paper. To make the card, I simple cut the 6x6" paper in half and scored it at 3". Next, I cut some smaller stitched squares from white card stock. The white squares are what I did my stamping on. I used red and pink ink to go along with the Valentine theme. On another piece of white card stock, I stamped out my frogs. I colored them red and pink with Copic markers and added some accents with a white gel pen. Once they were colored, I used the coordinating Froggy Friends Dies to cut them out. I attached the white stitched square to the patterned card base using regular adhesive, and I used foam tape to pop the little frogs up on their little scene. That's it!

I think these little frog cards are so adorable and perfect for kids to hand out at school to all their friends. The simple design make them easy to mass produce, but they are still really adorable! I hope you'll try your own set of Valentine's Day cards, and I can't wait to see what you create. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
