Build-A-Bowl & Strawberry Patch Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M here! Today I’m sharing a card featuring the fun Build-A-Bowl Die set and the Strawberry Patch Dies set! I had so much fun creating this friendship card!

For my A2 size card I started by trimming a piece of pink card stock from my stash to 5,5 x 4,25 to cover the front of the card base. Next, I trimmed a piece of white card stock to 3,75 x 5 inches, I ink blended turquoise/blue ink with a light hand to create a soft background. I finished it off by splattering black acrylic paint to it!

I trimmed a piece of turquoise patterned paper from the Classic Gingham Paper pack to 1,25 x 5 inches and adhere it to the bottom of the ink blended panel, as a tablecloth! I adhered the panel to the card base.

I then die cut out the bowl and brim from kraft card stock from my stash using the Build-A-Bowl Die set. I placed the bowl part inside the Woodgrain Embossing Folder, applied dark brown ink inside the folder on the opposite side of the panel, closed the embossing folder and ran it through my die cutting machine to create a nice tone on tone brown woodgrain texture to the bowl. Using liquid glue, I adhered the rim.

Now on to creating the strawberries! Using the Strawberry Patch Dies set I die cut out a bunch of strawberries, leaves and blossoms and ink blended the pieces using different shades of pinks, greens and yellow! I assembled the parts using liquid glue.

Next, I stamped three of the cute penguins from the Passionate Penguins Stamps set 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 penguins using the coordinating Passionate Penguins Dies.

Copic colors used:
Penguins: W0/1/2, N3/5/6, R00/30/32, YR21/24/27

I had so much fun building this scene, placing the strawberries, leaves, blossoms and one of the penguins in the bowl and the other two penguins, additional strawberries, blossoms and leaves on the tablecloth using both liquid glue and foam dots for dimension! I used the hugs die from the Scalloped Oval Mat 3 Dies set, I die cut one piece from pink card stock and one piece from black, to create a shadow and adhered it to the scene!

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

Sea You Soon Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you today and I have a fun birthday card to share showcasing the Sea You Soon set. Despite the small size of this stamp set, it is packed with cuteness and comes at an awesome price point. So let’s get started.

I stamped the images from the Sea You Soon Stamps and the clown fish, sea anenome and seaweeds from Best Fishes Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Sea You Soon Dies and Best Fishes Dies to diecut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Octopus: V000/01,04/06, R20
Clown fish: Y17/38 YR04/07, R20
Yellow fish: Y11/13/15/19, R20
Shark: C00/0/1/3, R20
Sea anemone: RV10/21
Seaweed: YG01/03/25/17

For the background, I took a piece of white cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and diecut two windows into it using the second and fourth largest dies from the Stitched Circle Large Dies. With the windowed panel as a guide, I ink blended Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy Distress Oxide inks onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock in the location of those windows. 

I used the bubble stamps from the Fintastic Friends Stamps set to stamp some bubbles directly onto the white windowed panel with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink. 

For the sentiment, I stamped the “Have a jawsome birthday" sentiment from the Best Fishes Stamps set with Memento Tuxedo Black and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide inks directly onto the white windowed panel.

I adhered the two panels to each other using foam tape. I adhered the colored images to the front of the card with foam tape for additional dimension and interest. The card front was adhered to an A2 white card base (4.25" x 5.5"). I finished the card with a few Majestic Clear Confetti. 

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

Guest Designer Spotlight: Monkey Business Card with Tammy Stark

Hello friends, Tammy here! I'm so excited to be back on the Sunny Studio  blog today sharing a card, featuring the adorable set, Monkey Business. 

To create my card, I started by stamping the images from Monkey Business, coloring with Copic markers, and die cutting the images with the Monkey Business Dies.

Next, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock A2 sized and ink blended the top 3/4 of the card with Saltwater Taffy and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide inks. I then taped off a small area on the bottom of the panel and blended Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide inks to create a sandy border. I splattered some Vintage Photo ink (thinned with a bit of water) onto the sandy border to create a bit of texture.

Next, I die cut the vines and leaves from Bristol cardstock using the Jungle Vines Dies. I colored the leaves and vines with Copic markers and arranged them onto the inked panel, trimming off the excess. I then stamped the sentiment using black ink. Next, I created a simple frame simply by cutting a piece of white cardstock to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2". Using the second largest die from the Stitched Rectangles Die, I centered onto my white cardstock panel and ran it through my die cut machine to create a frame. I attached the frame to my card using foam tape for dimension, then arranged the monkeys and stamped images onto my card. Once I was happy with the layout, I attached the images with both a glue runner and foam tape.

Lastly, I attached my card panel to a white A2 card base to finish up my card! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend!

Sunflower Fields Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing a card featuring the Sunflower Fields stamp set.

I started by die cutting a beige frame and a light brown background panel for inside the frame using the Icing Rectangle Frame dies. To give the background some extra texture, I added a beautiful effect with the Dotted Diamond Portrait plate. I blended brown ink along the bottom of the panel to create more depth. To finish the background, I added some gold and white paint splatters, which gave it a subtle sparkle and a little bit of magic.

Next, I created the sunflowers and leaves using the Sunflower Field stamp set. This stamp set is a layering stamp set, so the sunflowers are created by adding different stamped layers. With every layer, more details and depth appear, giving the flowers a beautiful and realistic look. 

I stamped the fairies from the Garden Fairy stamp set. I colored them in warm bee-inspired colors with my Ohuhu markers. I also added tiny watering cans from the Foxy Friends stamp set into their hands, which made them look like they were taking care of the flowers. To complete the scene, I added an adorable little bee from the Sweet as Can Bee stamp set.

After arranging and gluing all the elements onto the light brown background, I attached the whole panel onto a yellow layer and finally placed it on a white cardstock base.

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

Tropical Birds Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It’s Yan here, and today I’m bringing a splash of tropical sunshine to your screen. This project is super easy and so much fun to make. Grab your favorite drink, and let’s craft together!

​To kick things off, I stamped the beautiful birds and leafy foliage from the Tropical Birds Stamps onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Next, I brought them to life using Copic markers. Once you're done coloring, line up the coordinating Tropical Birds Dies to cut everything out flawlessly.

COPIC COLOR:
Birds: E35, R30, Y00, Y11, Y15, YR000, YR61, YR65
Leaves: E39, E43, G40, G14, G19, YG03, YG17, YG63

For the backdrop, I took a separate panel of white cardstock and gently ink-blended Distress Oxide Ink in Worn Lipstick from the center outwards. This creates a gorgeous, soft, warm glow that feels just like a tropical sunset.

To finish up, stamp the sentiment directly onto the ink-blended panel. Now for the fun part—bringing it all together! I popped the birds and leaves onto the card using foam tape. Adding that little bit of dimension really makes the whole scene come alive.

​And there you have it! A bright, cheerful card that’s guaranteed to put a smile on anyone's face. Happy crafting, everyone!
