Sneak Peek Week: Everything's Rosy, Everyday Greetings & Frilly Frames

Hello and welcome to our Spring Sneak Peek Week (for Season's Giving Blog Hop please click HERE)!  All this week I will be showcasing cards using our new collection for Spring coming out on Friday, January 4th.  

Today I will showing some fun ways to use our new Everything's Rosy stamps & diesEveryday Greetings stamps and two new mix and match Frilly Frames Dies.  :)

Card No. 1:  Up first is a card featuring all three products in a soft and pretty Sympathy card.  The sentiments in this new scripty set come with four phrases to compliment the beautiful roses in our newest layering set.  Our Everything's Rosy stamps creates two Roses, one trio of leaves and a small baby's breath type flower.

To frame my roses, I turned to our new Frilly Frames Polka Dot Dies.  These dies have two separate pieces so you can cut a scalloped mat, a polka-dot background or both at the same time.  For this background, I actually took my X-acto knife and cut a window around the stitching so that I could add my polka-dot background behind it as a separate piece for extra dimension. I then adhered them to a piece of pink gingham paper from our new Gingham Pastels 6x6 Paper Pack.

Card No. 2:  For my next card I paired the roses with a new leafy frame that will be featured more on Thursday.  ;)  I inked up my background with a little tumbled glass distress ink and sprinkled some Crystal Clear sequins by Studio Katia.  They are such a pretty iridescent color that pick up both the blues and pinks in person.  I finished off my card with the birthday sentiment from our new Everyday Greetings stamps.

Card No. 3:  Up next I switched up my colors for the Roses and put a Valentine's Day spin on them, pairing them with the Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder shared yesterday.  For my sentiment I heat embossed it with opaque white powder using a sentiment from our Happy Thoughts stamps.  I completed my card with a couple of small drops from Studio Katia's Clear Drop Mix 2--I love how they look like beautiful dew drops which feels so perfect for roses!

Card No. 4: For this card I took the inner background from our new Frilly Frames Lattice Dies and positioned it vertically on my horizontal card panel, first running it through my die-cuttting machine aligned on the left side.  I then aligned it on the right side feeling the grooves of my first cut before running it through my machine a second time for a full coverage background.  I then framed the lattice using our Comic Strip Everyday dies (cutting out the inside frames to leave just the outside stitched border).  

I cut apart the words "thank you" from our new Everyday Greetings stamps so that I could stack them to fit in the space I had and then framed them with a stitched scalloped circle from our Fancy Frames Circle dies.  This card design looks fabulous with any rose color so I had a hard time deciding which one to use, but in the end I went with yellow roses which I think are a beautiful compliment.

Card No. 5:  Up next is another soft and sweet card mixing a couple different colored roses with the jar from our Vintage Jars Stamps and dies and the stems from our Daffodil Dreams stamps.  To create the look of water in my jar, I used the little oval ring that comes with the jar stamps and then created a mask from a post-it note to ink in the "water" with tumbled glass distress ink.

For my background, I used both dies from the Frilly Frames Lattice dies at the same time to create a single layer mat with both the scalloped edge and lattice cutouts.  I then tucked in a piece of white cardstock below which I had inked up with some more tumbled glass distress ink.  I completed my card by mounting them onto a piece of patterned paper from our new Flirty Flowers 6x6 Paper Pack and sprinkled on some of my favorite Studio Katia Crystal Clear Mini Sequins.  My sentiment from the Everything's Rose set was stamped onto a piece of coordinating striped paper from our new Dots & Stripes Pastels 6x6 Paper and popped up with a piece of foam tape.

Card No. 6: For my last card of the day, I used a similar color scheme as I did for my Valentine's Day card, this time making a wedding card using another sentiment from the Everyday Greetings stamps.  This time I inked up the water in my jar using Colorbox Sky Ink and used our new Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder to add some extra texture to my background and continue the love theme.

For the black and white striped pattern I used our Background Basics stamps together with my favorite VersaMark Black Onyx ink.  To get really full coverage, I stamped it repeatedly using a stamp positioning tool and then made sure to zap it pretty good with my heat gun so my fingers wouldn't smudge it.

Here's a closer look at the two new Frilly Frames dies mix and match sets.  The inner patterns of each are separate making it possible to either use just the outer frame as a scalloped mat sized 4" x 5.25", use just the inner portion as a background or mix the two like shown here.  These look awesome when paired with our Fancy Frames Rectangle dies and have so many possibilities!  I found myself turning to them over and over for my cards this week.  ;)

To help you line up our Everything's Rosy stamps like a pro I've created a special layering guide (you can click on the photo below to view it larger).  For all the Roses I started by stamping them with the darkest ink color, working towards the lightest.  The black outline indicates where that layer touches the previously stamped layer.  :)

I will note that this particular set requires 4 to 5 ink colors for each rose and 3 inks for the leaves so the only downside is it requires a decent stash of inks for best results (in addition to a stamp positioning tool).  

I frequently am asked which ink colors I used for my layered images.  While I think there are so many great options out there, these are the colors I used today for my stamped images (in the ordered shared from darkest to lightest)...

  51. Oh my, those rose stamps are incredibly beautiful- a must have! One of my resolutions this year is to make Christmas cards throughout the year, so I'm not stressing about having to create 75 cards while all the other holiday festivities are happening as well. Also, I was going to resolve to buy fewer stamps until using some of my vast untouched collection, but I knew I would never keep that one... : )

  119. NO other company compares with Sunny Studio when it comes to layering stamps that produce realistic images. The example here are the new roses! WOW! Absolutely beautiful!
    But I must give equal love to the Quilted Heart embossing folding and Frilly Frames dies. They look like they would make wonderful addition to any crafter's stash. They are definitely on my Wish List.

  129. I did not make a resolution this year. In fact I rarely do. I did however make a list of crafty techniques to try based on my Pinterest boards. I'm hoping that having a list I can check off will help me branch out as a card maker. :-)

  130. Not a resolution but a word... Balance. I'm hoping to find balance with all of my responsibilities and work.

  131. The roses are lovely!!! I tend to never keep my resolutions but this year I hope to create more with the supplies I already have. I do love shopping for new things but it really isn't fair to the beautiful stamps and dies that are left unused! (Some have never been used, just looked at a lot :/ )

  138. Like most everyone else, I just want (need) to get organized. I waste far too much time digging through piles of supplies trying to find what I need for a project.
