Holiday Greetings Cards with Jarle

Hi crafty friends! It's Jarle here and I am back with my weekly project for Sunny Studio Stamps. Today, I am featuring the Holiday Greetings on 2 mini square cards. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Greetings Christmas Cards by Jarle Franceus (featuring Forest Tree Stencils, Scallope Square Dies)

I really wanted the sentiments to be the star of the show, so I kept the backgrounds really simple. I started by die cutting 2 square frames from the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies out of regular white cardstock.

After that, I trimmed down 2 square panels of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I did some stenciling with the Forest Trees stencils on both cards. For the pink trees I used Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry Oxide inks. For the green trees, I used Cracked Pistachio, Lucky Clover and Pine Needles. 

I ink blended the sky with Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac on the card with the green trees and Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers on the card with the pink trees. I splattered on some Copic White for a little bit of texture and that 'wintery' look.

I stamped the Holiday Greetings with the same Oxide colors, so Spun Sugar for 'Merry Christmas' and Peacock Feathers for 'Happy Holidays'. I did stamp Merry Christmas a few times because Spun Sugar is such a light ink. I adhered both sentiments on the card with liquid glue. 

For the wreath, I used the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-On dies and I added jewels from the Bright Jewels mix (I LOVE all these colors!). The wreath was adhered with liquid glue as well. 

I did mount the ink blended card panel with foam tape onto the Scalloped Square. A card always needs some dimension, right? After that, I adhered both cards on a white square card base.

These cards were very simple to make, so I think they are easy to mass produce. Square cards are always a little bit extra special in my opinion. I love that the sentiment really stands out. The sentiment really is the most important thing on a card, isn't it? 

I hope you like this inspiration and I will be back next week with a new project! Have a beautiful day!

Classy Christmas Gift Tags with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing two adorable Christmas gift tags filled with festive colors and the cutest little hedgehogs.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Classy Christmas & Quill Cuties Holiday Gift Tags by Janneke Peters (featuring Scalloped Square Dies, Stitched Square Dies)

I started by die-cutting four white cardstock pieces using the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies and two blue squares with the Stitched Square Dies. I glued two white scalloped squares together with a ribbon loop in between and added the blue square to the front.

Next, I stamped the beautiful poinsettias and leaves from the Classy Christmas Stamp Set, along with two sweet hedgehogs from the Quill Cuties Stamp Set. For extra Christmas cuteness, I added a Santa hat from the Alpaca Holiday Stamp Set, antlers, and some tiny presents from the Happy Owlidays Stamp Set.

After die-cutting all the images with their coordinating dies, I colored everything with my Ohuhu markers and pencils and arranged the pieces on the tags. I stamped “noel” in brown ink onto brown cardstock and added it to the top. Finally, I finished the tags with shiny red Christmas bells on the ribbon loops.

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

Merry Mice Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I'm sharing a cute and cozy winter scene featuring the adorable Merry Mice Stamps Set! This card was so much fun to assemble, and I love how all the little elements come together.  

Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Mice Winter Themed Christmas Card by Yan X DIY (featuring Holiday Style)

​To start off, I stamped these sweet mice, snowmen, and cheese trees from the Merry Mice Stamps onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I brought them all to life with my Copic markers and then used the coordinating Merry Mice Dies to die-cut everything flawlessly!  

​COPIC COLORS:
Mice: E30, E31, E35, E41, R30
Accessories / Scarves: G40, R30, R32, W1, Y00, YG03
Snowman: B000, R30, R32, YG03
Cheese Tree: E31, G40, RV11, YG03, YG63

​Next, I die-cut a stitched oval from another panel of white cardstock and blended Distress Oxide Inks in Worn Lipstick and Peacock Feathers to create a soft, snowy sky gradient. Once the ink was completely dry, I heat embossed the 'merry Christmouse' sentiment at the top with white embossing powder.  

​For the background base, I stamped the subtle tree branch pattern from the Holiday Style Stamps onto Kraft cardstock using white pigment ink.  

​Now for my favorite part—bringing the whole scene together! I popped up the stitched oval panel and all the colored images using foam tape for extra dimension. As a final touch, I added a few tiny snow dots with a white gel pen to give it that extra festive winter sparkle!  

​I hope this card brings a smile to your face and gives you a bit of holiday crafting inspiration! Happy crafting, everyone!

Sleigh Ride Surprise Die Focused Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina with a cute Christmas card featuring the fun Sleigh Ride Surprise Die set. I love the large size of the sleigh and all the accessories you can add to fill it up.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sleigh Ride Surprise Holiday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Frilly Frame Dies, Penguin Party, Brilliant Banners Dies)

Starting with a white card base, I then created a white rectangle panel with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Stripes die, dry embossed with the Cable Knit folder. This folder is perfect for all your holiday cards! I also created a small snowbank for my scene.

To make my sleigh stand out, I used a bright blue patterned paper from the Preppy Prints pack with a white border. I cut the presents, trees, and bows from white paper and colored them with Distress Oxides in blue and pink tones.

Of course I had to add a cute penguin from Penguin Party. I added foam tape to adhere the sleigh to the scene, which made it easier to glue all the other elements in place. 

I stamped the sentiment from Reindeer Games on an arched Brilliant Banner 2 Die with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I like how the size of this banner perfectly matches this design. To add that winter sparkle, I used a white Posca pen for the snowflakes and Glitter Stickles for that extra shine.

I am really excited about this fun set. I can’t wait to see your creations with these dies! Thank you for joining me, and happy crafting!

Treat Bag Topper Die Focused Treat Bag 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 Treat Bag Topper Dies.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Treat Bag Topper Dies & Holiday Hugs Gift Bag by Marieke Slaats

Cut the Treat Bag Topper dies using the Joyful Holiday Paper and white cardstock. Adhered them together and set them aside. Stamped the bear out of Holiday Hugs and cut him using the matching Holiday Hugs dies before coloring.

Cut the bear using the Treat Bag Topper Dies so the scallops would match the topper. Colored up the bear using my Copic markers. Using a craft knife I cut the hands so I could fit in the mug later.

Used Copic Colors:
Bear - C5, C3, C1, C00, 0 / R22, R20, R00
Black - N8, N6, N4, N2
Teal - BG15, BG13, BG11, BG10

Stamped the mug using the Holiday Hugs and colored it up, cut it using the matching Holiday Hugs dies and adhered the mug in the hands of the bear. Heat set the sentiments out of the same stamp on some red cardstock and trimmed them down to small banners. Adhered the banners and finished off by adding some enamel dots.

Have a wonderful day!
