Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm so happy to be back on the blog with this bright and cheerful shaker card featuring some super cute chicks all gathered to celebrate Easter. Love those little guys and their chubby faces so much!

I started off by creating the whole shaker card base, and first cut a 4,5 x 3,5 inches Rounded Rectangle Mat panel out of a fun multicolored polka dot Summer Splash pattern paper, I cut two windows out of this panel using the third smallest Rounded Rectangle Window die, attached my panel to a piece of acetate and then trimmed the excess of acetate around my Rounded Rectangle Mat multicolored polka dot panel.

At the back of my multicolored polka dot panel, I added 2mm foam strips all around the windows and on the rest of the panel as well. I poured multicolored sequins into each window, removed the backing papers off the foam strips, and attached a Flirty Flowers green panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker panel totally.

I attached my shaker panel to a 5,25 x 4 inches Gingham Pastels pink panel using liquid glue, next to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Polka Dot Parade blue panel using liquid glue again, and then to a white card base to finish my shaker card base.

Next I stamped my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them all using the coordinating dies and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. As always, here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: Chickie Baby (for chicks, basket, flowers, eggshells), Chubby Bunny (for the banner, flowers), and Spring Showers (umbrellas).

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then attached them to my card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. And to finish it, I added glossy accents to the multicolored Chubby Bunny banner to make it super shiny. 

And that's it! I hope that you like this super cute and colorful Easter card. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time.

Background Basics 2 Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am making a sweet Easter card featuring the Background Basics 2 stamps, more specifically the large diagonal grid.

I selected a white card base and cut a rectangle background panel from white paper with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Stripes die. I love the scalloped edge, but to enhance this piece even more I added an ‘embossed look’ with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die. Next, I simply glued this panel to the card base as my first layer.

The adorable Big Bunny is going to be my main focal point of this card and I discovered that she fits perfectly inside the largest of the Stitched Ovals. This pieces was then decorated with the big grid from Background Basics 2 stamps and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide. I deliberately kept some areas of the stamping lighter or even white.

For extra detail I glued this panel to a white Scalloped Oval Mat 1 piece and added the whole to the card with liquid glue. For the star of the show (the cutie from Big Bunny), the bouquet and the bow, I selected Copic markers in fun Spring colors matching the blue of my grid background. The combined sentiment is from the same set and stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

To put the scene together, I cut a white strip with one of the Slimline Basic Borders and the largest of the Stitched Ovals to give this piece it’s rounded edges. I glued this piece in place and added the bunny with the bow and tulips. Lastly, I placed the sentiment on the bottom of the oval shape. As a final embellishment, I added a few Gold Jewels. 

I hope you will enjoy these fun background stamps as much as I did! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Party Pets Card with Amanda

Hey there, crafty friends, Amanda here! Oh, do I have a fun card to share with you today!  I LOVE a good beach scene and this one was SO fun to make! Grab your supplies and let’s make this card together!

First, grab a piece of white cardstock and trim it to A2 size (4.25”x5.5”).  Then, stamp the beach scene from the Ocean View Stamps. You want to position it leaving enough room at the bottom for the tiki bar and critters. Use the coordinating dies to cut the top of it off. Grab another piece of white cardstock trimmed to A2 size. On this panel, ink blend your sky. I used Oh Boy! from Catherine Pooler Designs.

Next, we’ll take a piece of white cardstock and stamp all of our remaining images. You’ll need the Ocean View, Tiki Time, and Party Pets stamps. We’re ready to color all of our stamped images now! I used Copic markers to color my images, but you could use your favorite coloring medium! I also used a white gel pen to create dots and highlights on the images. Once everything is colored, we can cut them out with their coordinating die sets!

For the sentiment, stamp a piece of black cardstock with the “Happy Birthday” sentiment from the Squirrel Friends stamps with a Wow! embossing pad. Apply white embossing powder to the glue and then melt the powder with a heat gun. Trim the strip with a paper trimmer and use scissors to create a banner end. Now we’re ready to assemble the card!

Glue the blue sky panel to an A2 card base. Apply 3D foam tape behind the beach scene and then add that to the card base.

Next, we’ll use 3D foam squares behind the rest of our images and sentiment. I like to start by placing all the images where I think I want them before removing the backing off the adhesives. Once I have everything placed where I like it, I can start removing the backing and adhering them to the card!

Wasn’t that so fun?! I love a busy scene full of adorable critters, don’t you?! Thanks so much for stopping by the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today! Have a great rest of your week!

Window Trio Heart Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hi there! Leanne here. Today I'm sharing a mini slimline thank card. This card features a trio of heart shaped windows that I've filled with some flowers and the cutest little bugs.

To recreate this design you will need the following Sunny Studio sets:

- Window Trio Heart Portrait die for the perfectly spaced column of heart shaped windows. 

- Garden Critters stamp set and coordinating dies for the bug & floral images plus the thanks a buzzillion sentiment. 

After die cutting the heart windows into a panel that's slightly smaller than my mini slimline card base, I played around with placement of all the images. I wanted to leave enough room within two of the hearts to stamp the thanks sentiment. Once I had decided where everything looked good, I added some pink shading to the areas behind the heart openings. Then I adhered the panel with foam squares. 

Copics used for coloring: bees - Y13, Y15, Y17, N4, N6 B00; florals - RV52, RV63, RV55, V22, V25, Y13, Y15, Y17, YG11, YG13, YG17; ladybugs - R22, R24, N4, N6; grasshopper - YG00, YG11, YG15, YG17; rosy cheeks - R21

I tucked some of the images behind the edges of the heart openings and stamped the words. To finish, I adhered the bees and hand drew the dashed line trails with a fine tip black marker.

Cat Antics Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with a fun card to share with you showcasing these adorable kitties from the Cat Antics set. These sweet and playful kitties are just the cutest.

I stamped the images from the Cat Antics stamps set as well as the balloon bouquet from the Party Pets Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Cat Antics Dies and Party Pets Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Orange Cats: YR31/20/21/24/27, R00/20
Gray Cats: C00/0/1/3, R00/20
Brown Cats: E51/53/33, R00/20
Balloons: R22/24/27/29
Yarn: R22/24/27
Box: E40/41/42/43

For the layout, I used one of the dies from the Rounded Rectangle Windows Dies to diecut two windows into a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb cardstock. I stamped "sending" from the Holiday Hugs Stamps set and "pawsitive vibes" from the Cat Antics Stamps set directly onto the panel with black and red inks. I used the panel as a guide to ink blend a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock with Spun Sugar and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide inks. I used foam tape to adhere the two panels to each other.

I decorated the card front with the colored images using a combo of liquid adhesive and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. I adhered the panel to an A2 white card base and finished the card with a few Majestic Clear Confetti for some sparkle.

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card. For more info, ideas and to check out the entire Spring Release, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.
