Guest Designer Spotlight: Sweet As Can Bee Gift Set with Tammy Stark

Hello friends! Tammy here with a fun project featuring the adorable set, Sweet as Can Bee. I decided to create a cute tea pocket and muslin bag, filled with tea, honey, and a honey dripper. This is such a sweet little gift for a tea lover!

To begin, I stamped the images from Sweet as Can Bee, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the coordinating dies. Next, I die cut 2 Scalloped Oval Mat 3 Dies from Bristol cardstock, masked off the edges, and ink blended it using the Pink Fresh Ink Cubes- Napa Valley. I arranged the images onto the inked oval mats, attaching some with foam tape for dimension. I then stamped a white banner, die cut with the Brilliant Banner 3, and attached along the bottom of the ovals using foam tape.

To create the pocket, I simply took a brown paper bag, folded up the bottom, and glued it along the edges to create a pocket. I covered the bag with the Dots & Stripes Jewel Tone Patterned Paper, then tied some lavender crinkle ribbon around it before attaching the scalloped oval with foam tape. I then filled my little pocket with tea, honey, and a honey dripper.

I also created a little tea pouch with adorable tag. It is a little muslin bag that I repurposed, filled with tea and honey. It is tied up with a honey dripper and finished with a tag and crinkle ribbon.

That's it! You have a cute little simple and inexpensive gift! You could also tuck in a gift card for a little something extra! I hope you are inspired to make some adorable tea gifts for the tea lover in your life!

Thanks so much for stopping by and happy crafting!

Wedded Bliss Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing a monochrome wedding shaker card, created in soft grey tones and a touch of sparkle.

I started by die-cutting two card bases from the Subtle Grey Tones Paper Pad using the beautiful heart print paper. Next, I stamped the Majestic Meadow background twice with grey ink on each card base. From one sheet of cardstock, I die-cut a circle using the Stitched Circle Large dies to create the shaker window.

On white cardstock, I stamped the adorable bird and the tulips from the Majestic Meadow stamp set and die-cut them with the coordinating dies. I also stamped the lovely penguin couple from the Wedded Bliss stamp set. I then colored all the images using my collection of Ohuhu grey pencils, adding depth and dimension while keeping everything in a beautiful monochromatic style.

For the anniversary numbers, I stamped the 25 from the Balloon Number stamp set and finished them with glitter embossing powder for a subtle sparkle that makes them stand out perfectly.

The little bird was adhered to the bottom card base, inside the shaker element, while all the remaining images were attached to the top layer. Using foam tape, I adhered the top layer to the bottom layer, leaving enough space for the shaker elements to move freely inside.

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

Balloon Numbers Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I’m showcasing the versatile Balloon Numbers Stamps. Instead of using them as a focal point, I stamped them in soft pastel tones to create a subtle, playful patterned backdrop for this adorable foxy scene.

​To kick things off, I stamped the adorable fox, umbrella, and little birds from the Foxy Friends Stamps onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Coloring them with Copic markers is always my favorite relaxed step! Once I finished coloring, I lined up the matching Foxy Friends Dies to die-cut all the pieces flawlessly.

​COPIC COLORS:
Fox: E41, E43, R30, YR65
Umbrealla: B000, BG23, W1
Birds: R30, Y11, Y15

​For the backdrop, I wanted a subtle patterned look without being too overwhelming. So, I took a separate piece of white cardstock and stamped the Balloon Numbers softly in pastel shades across the panel, then die-cut it with the Rounded Rectangle Window Dies. Next, I die-cut a circle using the Radiating Circle Dies and gently ink-blended Distress Oxide Ink in Salvaged Patina in the center to create a soft, airy sky for my little scene.

​For the sentiment, I stamped "HAVE A FOXTASTIC DAY!" in crisp black ink onto a banner die-cut using the Brilliant Banner 3 Dies.

Finally, I mounted the background panel onto a golden-orange cardbase, then popped up the radiating circle, banner, and cute images using foam tape. That extra dimension really brings the little fox and his bird friends to life!

​I hope this project inspires you to look at your number stamps in a fun new way! Thanks so much for stopping by, and happy crafting!

Bundle Of Joy Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and I am always excited when I can make a sweet baby card (Bundle Of Joy)! I like to have a few of them ready in my card stash which means that I have to keep the color scheme neutral. Most of the time, I go for green or teal, my favourite colors! This card turned out to be a delicate balance between multiple design elements!

I started by creating a white envelope with the Gift Card Envelope die. After assembling this piece with some liquid glue, I thought it would be fun to add a sky portion to the inside of the envelope. It would have been easier if I had done that first, but I managed to ink blend with a very small brush and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide ink.

While this piece was drying, I browsed through my stash to find a festive backdrop and went with the gorgeous Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace dies. For extra contrast, I glued this white piece to a green card base.

The main image of this card design is the cute stork from Bundle Of Joy. This set is just perfect for so many sweet baby cards! I kept the coloring simple and added some red pops of color with my Copics. My sentiment was taken from the same set and stamped on to a white strip with Versafine Onyx Black ink. 

With all the elements ready, assembling this card was easy, I added the envelope, sentiment and stork to the pretty background and finished this project with a cluster of white heart die cuts (Stitched Heart dies) in the sky.

What card would you make with this sweet Bundle Of Joy set? Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Sunflower Fields 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 Sunflower Fields Stamp & Die.

For this project I thought it would be fun to create a shaped card, so I used the Spellbinders Make a Wish Arch Labels Etched Dies S5-619. Die cut the large die twice and scored one at 3/4 inch. Adhered them together to create my base. Traced the inner shape of the large die out of Kraft cardstock and cut the slightly smaller one using pattern paper.

I stamped the sunflowers and leaves out of the Sunflower Fields stamp using Scattered Straw, Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge, Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Oxides for the sunflowers. For the leaves I stamped Shabby Shutters twice, Peeled Paint and Forest Moss. Die cut the elements using the Sunflower Fields Die. Shaped the flowers and bit before adhering them.

Stamped the thanks sentiment out of the Big Bold Greetings Stamp and Cut them using the matching Big Bold Greetings Dies. Stamped the other sentiment out of Inside Greetings Friends directly on to the card. Finished the card by adding some black paint splatters.

Have a wonderful day!
