Sweet As Can Bee Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I am excited to share a sweet birthday card showcasing the super cute new Sweet As Can Bee set from the latest Summer Release.

I stamped the images from the Sweet As Can Bee Stamps and a branch from the Little Birdie Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Sweet As Can Bee Dies and the Little Birdies Dies to die cut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Bees: Y11/13/15/19, T1/3/5/7, R20, B000
Beehive: Y11/13/08 YR21/24, W5
Branch: E21/23/25/27
Leaves: YG01/03/25

For the background, I used Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inks to ink blend a sky background onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I used the Comic Strip Everyday Dies to die cut a frame out of white cardstock. I used a pair of scissors to snip off the dividers and leave just a border frame. Foam tape was used to adhere this white frame onto the inked panel. I added some dots with a white gel pen for a bit of interest.

For the sentiment, I used the Brilliant Banner 1 Dies and Brilliant Banner 3 Dies to die cut the banners out of black cardstock. I stamped the “Just Buzzin’ by to Say” and the custom created “Happy Bee Day” sentiments from the Sweet And Can Bee Stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto the banner die cuts and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder.

The colored images were adhered to the panel with liquid glue and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. I added a few flowers die cut from the Gift Card Envelope Dies. Finally, the panel was adhered to a white A2 card base (4.25” x 5.5”).

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 to check out the new Summer Release and for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Bundle of Joy Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing a cute baby card featuring  Bundle of Joy stamp set. I originally had blue ink ready to go, but I decided to switch things up and use non-traditional colors instead.

I started by die-cutting the base from light beige cardstock using the Icing Rectangle Frame die. For the inside of the frame, I added texture by die-cutting a pattern with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die. I then softly ink blended the bottom part with a light brown ink to create a subtle grounded effect.

Next, I die-cut the frame again from light brown cardstock and layered everything onto a light beige card base for a soft tone-on-tone look.

For the baby’s name, I used the Sydney Alphabet dies and cut the letters twice: once from light brown cardstock and once from a darker brown. I adhered the darker layer slightly offset behind the lighter one to create a shadow effect.

Then it was time to use the Bundle of Joy stamp set. I stamped the images and colored them in monochrome shades of brown and beige using my Ohuhu markers. I also stamped the “welcome” sentiment on dark brown cardstock using white embossing powder. Finally, I adhered all the elements onto the card and added some highlights with a white gel pen.

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

The Graduate Card with Yan

Hello all, Yan here! Today I'm sharing a fun graduation-themed card featuring the adorable The Graduate Stamps. This project combines playful images, soft pastel colors, and layered details to create a cheerful design perfect for celebrating a special milestone. 

To begin, stamp the fox images from the Foxy Friends Stamps onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the images with Copic markers, then use the coordinating Foxy Friends Dies to cut them out neatly.

COPIC COLOR:
Fox : E31, E35, E41, R30, YR000, YR61
Mortarboard : W1, W4, Y02, Y19

Next, create the background using the Balloon Stencil from Lawn Fawn and blend several pastel Distress Oxide colors onto another piece of white cardstock. Once the ink blending was finished, I used the Just Stitching Double Rectangles from Lawn Fawn to add a subtle stitched detail that complements the fun graduation theme. Then I heat-embossed the sentiment directly onto the background to add a bold, polished finishing touch. 

Finally, I assembled all the elements with foam tape to add a bit of dimension and bring the whole design together, completing the card as shown in the photo. 

I hope this project inspires you to create something fun and cheerful for the graduates in your life!

Afternoon Tea Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and today you are invited to a special party! When I saw this cute Afternoon Tea stamp and die set, I knew I wanted to make a sweet pink themed card. 

Seeing the large images in this set, I opted for a square white card base. My next layer consists of a white panel made with one of the Stitched Square dies. After adhering this piece to the card base, I made another white panel, this time using the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies. As I often do, I dry embossed this paper with the Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder. I love layering white on white panels, since it brings elegance to the card without distracting from the focal point.

For this design, I decided to combine the images from the Afternoon Tea set with a lovely flower arrangement (Pink Peonies). I colored the flowers with my Copics and that was also my initial plan for the teapot and cup.

However, this is where I changed my mind and decided to go for the fun technique of paper piecing. I stamped my images a second time on pattern paper (Gingham Pastels) and used my scissors to cut them out. The handles of both the pot and cup were a bit challenging, therefore I just removed them and colored them with Copics on the white paper version. After I finished cutting, I simply glued the cup and teapot onto the white images to get that clean crisp border.

To ground my scene, I cut a layer from a green paper (Flirty Flowers) with the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies and one of the Slimline Basic Border dies. I browsed through my stash and found the perfect sentiment in the Inside Greetings Friends set. After stamping this phrase with a green ink on a white banner, it was time to assemble the card. A few Pink Spinel Jewels were the perfect match for this design.

I can’t wait to see your creations with this cute set! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
