Big Panda Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M here sharing a card using the Big Panda set for a cute summer card!

For my A2 size card I started by trimming a piece of turquoise card stock from my stash to 5,5 x 4,25 to cover the front of the card base.

Using the largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies to die cut out the orange star patterned paper from the Surprise Party Paper pack. From white alcohol ink friendly card stock I die cut out the second largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies and Copic colored the sand and the sea (see list below) and ink blended the sky using light blue ink and adhered both panels to the card base.

Next, I stamped the panda and the various accessories from Big Panda Stamps on alcohol ink friendly card stock using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below.

Copic colors used:
Panda: C0/1/2, N4/5/6/8, R000/30/32
Coco nut: E23/25/2
Slice of orange: YR04, Y15/17
Umbrella: RV52/55, BG11/13
Beach bag: RV52/55/66, BG11/13, YR04,Y15/17
Sun glasses: N4/5/6/8
Sun hat: E21/23/25, YR04, Y15/17, YG03/17, BG11/13
Sand: E51/53/55, E25
Sea: G00/02, BG11/13, BG01/02
Palm tree: E21/23/25, G46, YG03/17

I stamped the Hello, also from the Big Panda Stamps set on a piece of white card stock and then die cut out the colored pieces and the Hello using the coordinating Big Panda Dies. To add a beachy, tropical vibe to the scene I die cut out one of the palm trees from the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die and colored it with my Copics, see list for colors used.

Next, I adhered the panda, the palm tree and the Hello die cut to the scene using liquid glue as well as the sunglasses! I tucked the coconut in between the paws! Lastly, I added foam dots to the back of the beach bag and the sun hat for dimension and adhered them to the scene.

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

Best Fishes Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you today and I have a fun birthday tunnel shadow boxcard to share showcasing the Best Fishes set. I love dimensional cards and how they add an element of surprise for the recipient. So let’s get started.

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

COPIC COLORS:
Puffer fish: Y11/13/15/19, R20
Clown fish: Y17/38 YR04/07, R20
Sharks: C00/0/1/3, R20
Crab/Lobster: R22/14/24/29
Hermit crab: R14/24, E51/53
Starfish: Y11/13/15/19, R20
Seaweed: YG01/03/25/17

For the shadow boxcard design, I took one piece of white cardstock (4.25” x 11”), one piece of light teal cardstock (5.25” x 4.25”) and one piece of dark teal cardstock (4.25” x 4.25”). 

I started with the long white cardstock (4.25” x 11”) and used a score board to score at the 1”, 5.25”, 6.25” and 10.5” marks to create 5 panels of 1”, 4.25”, 1”, 4.25” and 0.5” widths. I used the second largest die from the Stitched Circle Small Dies to diecut a circle window in the center of the first 4.25” square panel (the one in between the two 1” panels). I folded at each of the score lines. 

Next, I took the light teal cardstock (5.25” x 4.25”) and scored at the 0.5” mark from each of the long ends to create 3 panels of 0.5”, 4.25” and 0.5” widths. I used the third largest die from the Stitched Circle Small Dies to diecut a circle window in the center of the 4.25” square panel. I folded at the two score lines. 

I took the opportunity to add some decoration around the circle window by stamping the water droplet stamp from the Best Fishes Stamps set with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide ink onto the white cardstock. 

To assemble the shadow boxcard, I folded the white cardstock into a box. I adhered the light teal layer along one of its side panels to one of the side panels of the white boxcard. Then I adhered the dark teal panel to the inside of the back panel of the boxcard. I found it easiest to decorate the inside elements of the boxcard at this stage before I closed off the boxcard. Once I finished with the decoration, I adhered the final panels.

For the sentiment, I stamped the “best fishes” sentiment from the Best Fishes Stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used a paper trimmer to trim out the sentiment. 

I finished adhering the colored images and sentiment to the outer part of the boxcard with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The final dimensions of the 3D shadow boxcard is 4.25” x 4.25” x 1”. I love that it can be flattened to fit into a standard A2 envelope for easy mailing. 

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

Background Basics 2 Gift Tags with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing cute baby gift tags featuring Background Basics 2 stamp set.

For these tags, I started by die-cutting the base of the tags from light beige cardstock using the Build-A-Tag 1 die set. To add a little warmth and dimension, I softly blended some light brown ink along the bottom of each tag.

Next, I die-cut the top and bottom tag layers from light brown, light blue, and light pink cardstock. On these pieces, I stamped a pattern using the Background Basics 2 stamp set. I absolutely love how this background stamp creates your own custom pattern paper! After stamping, I adhered the colored pieces onto the beige tag bases.

From the same beige cardstock, I also die-cut the rings from the same Tag die set and adhered them around the tag holes for an extra finished detail.

After that, I stamped the adorable images from the Bundle of Joy stamp set and colored them with my Ohuhu markers. Once finished, I adhered the images onto the tags. To complete the tags, I stamped the sentiments with light brown ink and added ribbons through the top of each tag.

I really love how soft, sweet, and playful these baby gift tags turned out! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Ribbon & Lace Border Die Focused Card with Yan

Hello all, Yan here!  Sometimes the simplest ideas can create the most fun results, especially when you start playing around with border dies.

For today’s project, I’m using the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies to create a custom background, paired with the adorable Party Pets Stamp set for a sweet focal point.

First, I die cut the straight stitched border die from several different colours of cardstock. Instead of using them individually, I mixed and arranged the strips like a little puzzle, then secured everything with double-sided tape. This is such an easy technique, but it instantly creates a bold and playful background—and the best part is that every combination looks a little different.

Next, I stamped the cute cat and balloon from the Party Pets Stamp set onto Neenah Solar White cardstock, coloured them with Copic markers, and cut them out using the Party Pets Dies.

COPIC COLOR:
Cat: E41, E43, R30
Balloon: B000, B12, R30, RV10, RV11, Y02, Y11

For the sentiment, I used the Scalloped Oval Mat 3 Dies together with a greeting from the Party Pets Stamp set. This adds a soft focal layer that balances the busy background nicely. To finish, I adhered everything with foam tape for extra dimension.

This is one of those projects where the supplies really do the work for you—the border dies make it so easy to create something that looks detailed and layered, even with a very simple process. I love how many different backgrounds you can create just by changing colours and placement.

Hope this inspires you to try mixing your border die cuts in a new way!
