Holiday Style Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you today and I am sharing a fun Christmas card featuring the adorable Holiday Hugs bear who is getting ready for the holidays by decorating her tree with the amazing bells from the beautiful Holiday Style set. I am so impressed with the realistic look of the bells from this layered stamping set. So let’s get started.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Style & Holiday Hugs Christmas Card by Hanh Nguyen (featuring Stitched Rectangle Dies, Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies)

I stamped the bells and bows images from the Holiday Style Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock and used the coordinating Holiday Style Dies to die cut them out. I also stamped the pine branch several times onto another piece of Neenah cardstock to create a Christmas tree. 

INK COLORS:
Bells: Hero Arts Granite, Hero Arts Charcoal, Hero Arts Pitch Black
Bows: Hero Arts Pale Tomato, Gina K Red Hot, Hero Arts Red Royal
Pine Branches: Hero Arts Fresh Lawn

Next, I stamped the bear from the Holiday Hugs Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Holiday Hugs Dies to die cut it out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Bear: E51/53/33/99, E25/27/29, R00/20
Scarf: R14/24/29, C0/1, RV10/21

For the layout, I lightly inked the corner of the Christmas tree stamped panel with some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink. I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to diecut it out. I stamped the “Believe in the Magic of Christmas” from the Holiday Style Stamps set directly onto the panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

Next, I adhered the panel onto another white panel die cut using the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies for a bit of interest on the edges. The bells, bows and bear were adhered to the panel with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape for some dimension.  Finally, I adhered the panel to a piece of red cardstock before adhering it to a white A2 card base (4.5” x 5.5”).

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

Hedgey Holidays Card with Jarle

Hi friends, Jarle here. I am excited to be back on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog with my weekly card. Today, I am featuring the cute Hedgey Holidays stamp set. 

Sunny Studio Stamps; Hedgey Holidays Christmas Card by Jarle Franceus (featuring Staggered Circles Dies)

I started by trimming a panel of white cardstock to 5 by 3,75. because I already knew I wanted a white border around my card. I die cut the Staggered Circles die set out of that card panel.

Then it was time for some stamping and coloring. I stamped the images from the Hedgey Holidays stamp set a few times on Transotype Perfect Coloring paper with black Copic-friendly ink. I colored everything with my Copics. Of course, I used the coordinating dies to cut out all the images. I put my images on the white panel for placement and stamped my sentiment from the same Hedgey Holidays set.

These are the color combinations I used: 
- E33 - E31 - E30 
- E47 - E35 - E33 - E31 
- R85 - R83 - R81 
- G17 - G02 - G00 
- N0 - C00 - 0

I trimmed a piece of (pink!) patterned paper out of the All is Bright 6x6 paper pad to the same size as the white card panel (so 5 by 3,75). I put some foam squares on the back of the white panel, because I really wanted to create some dimension. I placed it down onto the patterned paper. After that I adhered all my images on the card panel. I folded an A2 sized card base and put my whole card panel on top, leaving that little white border all around. 

I love that you can create a CAS card with just a little mini stamp set. Have a beautiful day!

Nativity Scene Builder Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here Today I'm sharing a fun and festive Christmas card featuring these adorable Roly Poly Penguins.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Nativity Scene Builder Die and Roly Poly Penguins Holiday Card by Janneke Peters

For the background, I started by cutting a card panel from brown cardstock. I then used the Nativity Scene Builder Dies Set to cut the nativity stable and the stars directly from this panel.

Next, I lightly blended the edges with brown ink to add a little extra depth and dimension. I adhered the panel, along with the golden stars, to my card base and I added splatters of both gold and white paint across the background.

Then it was time for the cutest part! I stamped the adorable Roly Poly Penguins and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I colored these sweet little characters with my Ohuhu markers.

Once everything was colored, I adhered the penguins to the bottom of my card, creating a sweet little scene beneath the nativity stable. To finish everything off, I stamped the sentiment "Noël" from the Classy Christmas Stamp Set.

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

Sleigh Ride Surprise Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I'm sharing a lovely Christmas card featuring the Sleigh Ride Surprise Dies. From the charming holiday sleigh and gifts to the cozy winter scenery, this set is an absolute dream to craft with. Let's craft together! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sleigh Ride Surprise & Holiday Greetings Christmas Card by Yan X DIY

​First, I used the Sleigh Ride Surprise Dies to die-cut all the adorable holiday elements. To bring the scene to life, I played with a variety of colorful cardstocks—die-cutting the cute sleigh in a soft pink, the pine trees in fresh shades of green, and the festive presents in vibrant hues of yellow and orange.  

Next, for the sentiment, I stamped 'Happy Holidays' from the Holiday Greetings Stamps onto a piece of vellum and heat embossed it in gold for a gorgeous, festive shine.

​To create the card background, I ink-blended a dreamy mix of Distress Oxides using Salty Ocean, Wilted Violet, and Dusty Concord to capture a magical winter night sky. Once the ink was completely dry, I added delicate falling snowflakes across the scene using a white gel pen to create a soft, cozy holiday feel.

To bring everything together, I layered and assembled all the colorful die-cut pieces and the vellum sentiment onto the snowy blue-and-purple background, using foam tape for some fun dimension and depth. ​

And there you have it! A cheerful holiday card that's guaranteed to bring a smile to anyone's face. Happy crafting, everyone!

Alpine Adventure Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina, and I am so thrilled to make a card with the stunning Alpine Adventure stamp and die set. I just love this beautiful scene and, of course, the cute critters! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Alpine Adventure Winter Themed Holiday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Scalloped Square Dies, Holiday Greetings)

To get the most of my scene on display, I opted for a square card base. Next, I created a white panel with the largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies. I stamped my scene with black ink and pulled my Copics for some relaxed coloring. I went with a pink-teal combo, which is so fun for those cold winter scenes!

Since there is already a lot going on, I kept the sky portion white so my sentiment wouldn’t get lost in too much detail. For extra texture, I added details with a white gel pen and frosty bling with some glitter gel. After coloring three critters, I decided that I would go with the cute bear; he will be the star of the show!

The large Season’s Greetings was taken from the Holiday Greetings set and stamped in a pale green ink from my stash. I finished this card by sprinkling a few Champagne Clear Jewels around the sentiment.

This scene is so adorable, and I am sure you will have fun creating with this set too! Thank you for joining me, and happy crafting!
