Build-a-Greeting Holiday Cards with Jarle

Hi friends! Jarle here. I’m back with another project for Sunny Studio Stamps. This time, I am featuring the Build-A-Greeting Holidays stamp set.

I probably used this set in just about every Christmas card I made this year. It is PACKED with lots of sentiments. Mendi (the owner of Sunny Studio Stamps) made a downloadable overview of all the sentiments you can build with this set. You can find it here.

For this trio of mini cards, I started with the Rounded Rectangle Mat dies. I die cut 3 pieces out of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I ink blended Distress Oxides in Salvaged Patina and Mermaid Lagoon on top and splattered on some Perfect Pearls solution. 

I immediately stamped out my sentiments on the bottom of the panels, with the Build-A-Greeting Holidays set. For the black portion of the sentiment, I used Versafine Onyx black ink and for the red portion, I used Berrylicous (Pinkfresh). 

I used the Rounded Rectangle Window dies to cut 3 pieces out of the All is Bright 6x6 paper pack. I glued down the inked panels on top of the patterned paper pieces. 

For my images, I used the cute Snowmen in Sweaters stamp set. I stamped them with Jet Black ink on Transotype Perfect coloring paper and colored them with Copic Markers. After that, I cut them out with the coordinating dies. 

These are the combinations I used: 
- R29 / R24 / R22
- RV13 / RV10
- YG09 / YG07 / YG03
- YG67 / YG09 / YG07
- N0 - 0 
- B00 - B000 - 0 
- E18 / E15

I adhered the Christmas tree with liquid glue and the snowmen were popped up with foam squares. Dimension just gives that little extra something to a card.

I think these 3 mini cards turned out great. I love handing out cute little mini cards during the Christmas season. I hope you feel inspired. Have a beautiful day!

Lazy Christmas Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here Today I'm sharing a fun and festive Christmas card featuring the cutest little sloths from the Lazy Christmas stamp set.

I started by creating my background panel from blue cardstock. Next, I die-cut the beautiful green branches using the Jungle Vine Dies. For the Christmas light strings, I used a slightly darker shade of green cardstock and the Sleigh Ride Surprise die set. I arranged and adhered all the greenery and light strings onto my blue background. For the little Christmas lights, I die-cut the bulbs from yellow cardstock and added a touch of orange with a marker to give them a warm, glowing look.

For the sentiment panel in the center, I stamped the words onto red cardstock using white embossing powder. To make it extra special, I added a beautiful golden glitter border, die-cut using the Icing Rectangle Frame Die Set.

Now it was time for some stamping! I stamped the adorable sloths from the Lazy Christmas Stamp Set, along with the little Christmas baubles from the same set and colored all the images with my Ohuhu pencils.

Once everything was colored and die-cut, I arranged the two sweet sloths around the sentiment and added the Christmas baubles throughout the greenery. I finished the images with a few highlights using a white gel pen.

Card done, ready to send joy! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Nativity Scene Builder Die Focused Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I'm sharing a peaceful winter night scene that brings so much warmth to the holiday season. This project is relaxing to put together.

​To kick things off, I die-cut all the lovely elements for the scene using the Nativity Scene Builder Dies on white cardstock and vellum paper. For the background, I wanted to capture a dreamy, starlit winter night, so I gently ink-blended a rich gradient using Distress Oxide inks in Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot.

​Next, to frame the scene nicely, I die-cut a sweet stitched edge on a separate piece of white cardstock using the Scalloped Square 1 Small Dies. I also stamped a lovely holiday greeting using the Holiday Style Stamp to complete the message of peace and joy.

​Now for the fun part—bringing it all together! I assembled and layered all the elements using foam tape and glue. Adding that little bit of dimension really makes the whole nativity scene come alive.

​And there you have it! A peaceful, heart-warming card that's guaranteed to bring a smile to anyone's face this winter. Happy crafting, everyone!

Holiday Tags & Labels Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and today we are using the fun Holiday Tags & Labels stamp and die set. Of course you can create many cute tags with these products, but instead of using them for gifts, I am putting them on a card.

Since the tags will be colorful, I am starting off with a white card base and a white panel (Frilly Frames Chevron). For extra detail, I am dry embossing this piece with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die.

Next, I selected three circle frames and stamped them in a red ink from my stash. I used the matching die to cut them out and also cut the tags pieces from blue and red papers (Joyful Holiday). After gluing the circles to the tags, I placed them on the white embossed panel.

For extra detail, I added cute little white bows to each of them (Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on). Of course we also need some fun critters from Holiday Express. I colored them with my Copics and mounted them to the inner circles with foam tape.

There wasn’t much room left for a sentiment so I found the perfect match in the Inside Greetings Season’s set (Versafine Onyx Black ink). I added this phrase to the left top corner of the design. Just a few Champagne Clear Jewels on top of the bows was all the embellishment this card needed! 

I hope you got inspired and give this design idea a try! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Alpine Adventure Card 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 card that I made using the Alpine Adventures.

The base is a white top fold card, cut a a2 dark gray rectangle and added this to the front of the card. Out of white cardstock I cut the Scalloped Rectangle using the Frilly Frames Hexagon dies. Cut a pink rectangle and a slightly smaller watercolor rectangle and ink blended it using Spun Sugar and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide ink.

Stamped the images out of Alpine Adventures op Copic paper and colored them using my Copic markers. Die cut the images using the matching Alpine Adventures dies. Adhered the images on to the watercolor panel and splattered some white paint before adding to the card base.

Used Copic Colors:
Purple - BV08, BV04, BV02, BV00, BV000, BV0000
Pink - R85, R81, R83
Soft Pink - RV02, RV00, RV000, 0
White - W5, W3, W1, W00, 0
Penguin - N8, N6, N4, N3; YR09, YR04, YR02; E53, E51, E50, 0, R20
Green - YG17, YG13, 0
Ice - BG13, BG11, BG10, 0

Using the Build-a-Greeting Holidays stamp I created the two lines to compliment the winter sentiment out of Alpine Adventures. Heat set them on gray and pink cardstock. Trimmed them to a banner and cut the word winter using the Alpine Adventures dies.

Have a wonderful day!
