Crisp Apple Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and we are having a very windy, rainy day here which instantly reminded me of autumn! So I had fun creating a card with the beautiful Crisp Apple die set, combining these with the large Wood Barrel die.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Crisp Apple & Wood Barrle Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Punny Apple Greetings, Picket Fence Border Dies, Stitched Circle Dies)

I die cut five apples, a bunch of leaves and the big barrel. Having a silicone mat to place the images on makes the ink blending with Distress Oxides very easy. 

After setting the pieces aside to let them dry, I quickly created a white square card base. My initial thought was to have lots of white space on this project but later on I decided to add some red inked stripes to this piece with Distress Oxides and a stencil from my stash.

My centrepiece is a white circle (Stitched Circles Small) dry embossed with the Dapper Diamonds folder. I then glued this circle to the striped card base. To add an extra layer to the design, I also created a white fence with the Picket Fence Border die

Assembling the card was easy, I simply glued the barrel in place and stacked four apples before adding the fence and mounting the last apple to the bottom right of the design.

I didn’t have much space for a sentiment so I opted for separate pieces which I could add on top of each other (Punny Apple Greetings, Versafine Onyx Black ink). Lastly, I sprinkled a few Iridescent Clear Jewels across the design.

I hope this card inspired you to create your own basket of crispy apples! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Holiday Tags & Labels Gift Tags with Marieke

Hello all, Marieke here. I'm back again with my weekly post for Sunny Studio Stamps. Today I hope to inspire you with a set of gift tags that I made using the Holiday Tags & Labels.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Tags & Labels Christmas Gift Tags by Marieke Slaats (featuring Penguin Party)

So for my set of labels I thought it would be fun to create black and white labels with a pop of colors in them. I cut the Square and Circle outer dies using black cardstock and the Holiday Tags & Labels Dies.

Using a black ink I stamped the patterns on white cardstock using the Holiday Tags & Labels Stamps. Die cut them using the matching dies and stamped the sentiments out of the same set on to them.

Used Copic Colors:
White - C5, C3, C1
Red - R59, R29, R24
Green - G99, G94, G21
Black - N8
Orange - YR27, YR24, YR21

Stamped the images of Penguin Party Stamps, colored them up using my Copic markers and cut them. Added them to the labels and finished the labels by adding some different types of ribbon and twine.

Have a wonderful day!

Pathway Home Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M is here with you today sharing a fall card featuring the Pathway Home set from the brand-new Holiday 2026 release! There are so many cute sets in this release and I hope to inspire you with fall and Holiday cards this season!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Pathway Home Fall Themed Card by Tina Magnusson (featuring Hello Word Die)

For my card today I used an A2 card base, I trimmed a piece of purple patterned paper, from the Classic Sunburst Paper pack to 4,25 x 5,5 inches, the sunburst patterned side up and adhered it to my card base.

I then trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 3,75 5 x 5 inches and ink blended the panel using turquoise ink for the sky. I then trimmed a slightly larger black panel to go behind my ink blended panel and adhered them to the card base, using double sided tape.

Next, I stamped the Pathway Home scenery, the raccoon, birdhouse, pumpkins and leaves on alcohol ink friendly card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below. I die cut out the colored pieces using the coordinating Pathway Home Dies.

I then trimmed the Pathway Home scenery panel to fit my 3,75 x 5 inches ink blended panel and adhered it using double sided tape and liquid glue. Next, I die cut out the Hello Word Die from purple and black card stock, using the black piece to create a shadow. I adhered them to the card using liquid glue. I added foam dots to back of the raccoon, birdhouse, pumpkins and leaves for dimension and adhered them to the card!

Thank you for stopping by! Wishing you a happy and colorful day!

Sleigh Ride Surprise Penguin Holiday Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you today, and I am so excited to share a super fun and cute Christmas card featuring the new Sleigh Ride Surprise Dies. There are so many fun elements in the die set. Today I decided to focus on the main sleigh to create a ride for these adorable penguins from the Roly Poly Penguins and Penguin Pair sets. So let's get started.

Sunny Studio Stamps Roly Poly Penguins Holiday Hugs Winter Christmas Card using Sleigh Ride Surprise Metal Cutting Craft Dies

I used the Sleigh Ride Surprise Dies to die-cut the sleigh, strand of lights, Christmas tree, and sack of gifts out of colored cardstock. I assembled the strand of lights and sleigh with liquid glue. I added some white highlights with a gel pen.

Next, I stamped the penguins and hat from the Roly Poly Penguins Stamps and the Penguin Pair Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Roly Poly Penguins Dies and Penguin Pair Dies to die-cut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T4/5/7, W00/0/1, Y38 YR04, R00/20
Hat/Earmuff/Scarf: R14/24/29/39, C0/1/3

For the background, I lightly ink-blended some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I used the Slimline Nature Borders Dies to die-cut a snowbank out of white cardstock. I adhered the snowbank onto the bottom portion of the inked panel. I trimmed the panel down to 4" x 5.25".

For the sentiment, I stamped the "Holiday Hugs" from the Holiday Hugs Stamps set with Versafine Satin Red ink onto a piece of white cardstock and used the coordinating Holiday Hugs Dies to die-cut them out. I stamped the "coming your way!" from the Holiday Express Stamps set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of white cardstock and used a paper trimmer to trim it out.

I adhered the sleigh, colored images, and sentiments onto the inked panel with liquid glue and foam tape. Finally, the panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").

Hi you! It's Jarle here, with my very first post as a member of the Sunny Studio Stamps Design Team. I am excited to be here and I hope to inspire you with my projects. Today I am using the beautiful Nativity Scene Builder die set. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Nativity Scene Builder Christmas Card by Jarle Franceus (featuring Rounded Rectangle Window Dies, Build-A-Greetings Holidays)

I started by inking up my A2 panel with different Distress Oxide colors: Squeezed Lemonade, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, and Blueprint Sketch. I splattered on some Copic white, diluted with water, and let it dry. 

I trimmed a panel out of Brushed Gold cardstock from Spellbinders to A2 size. I then used the Rounded Rectangle Window dies to die-cut a window out of that same panel. This gives a lovely stitching detail to the frame. Since I really love dimension on handmade cards, I put foam strips on the back of that frame and popped it on the ink-blended panel.

I die-cut different pieces of the Nativity set in black and (the same) brushed gold cardstock. I assembled all the pieces inside the window. Some were popped up with foam squares and others were adhered directly onto the panel with liquid glue. 

After that, I stamped my sentiment of the Build-A-Greeting: Holidays stamp set onto black cardstock with Versamark ink, sprinkled on white embossing powder, and heat-set it with my heat gun. I trimmed it down to a small strip and placed it inside my scene. Finally, I adhered the whole panel to a white card base. 

I like how the colors turned out, and those silhouettes just make the perfect elegant Christmas card! Have a beautiful day!
