Layered Poinsettia Cards with Anja and Vanessa

Hi everyone, Anja here today with a new Christmas card highlighting the pretty Layered Poinsettia Die.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Layered Poinsettias Dies Circle Snowflake Frame Dies Season's Greetings Merry Christmas Card by Anja Bytyqi

I started off with a 4.5" x 4.5" white square card base. The striped paper from the Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 Paper pack measures 4.25" x 4.25". Next, I die cut all the poinsettia layers (I did the bottom layer twice) from Bristol cardstock and watercolored them with ZIG Clean Color Real Brushes. Only the top layer of the center was cut from silver glitter cardstock. All the die-cut layers stacked together create such beautiful dimension.

I decided to create some kind of wreath design and die cut the circle frame and a couple of snowflakes from white cardstock using the Snowflake Circle Frame Die set. In the center of the circle frame, I stamped the large word 'Merry' (by masking off the word 'Christmas') from the Season's Greetings Stamps set in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with WOW! Metallic Platinum Sparkle Embossing Glitter. I also stamped the words ' Little Christmas' from the Merry Mice set and heat embossed them with Ranger Liquid Platinum Embossing Powder. To finish off my card, I adhered some matching crystals.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you're having a wonderful day!

Hello to you! Vanessa here today with an elegant Christmas card using the Layered Poinsettia die. I love the look of Kraft + White.

First, I stamped the snowflakes from Feeling Frosty onto a panel of Kraft cardstock and added tiny droplets of white ink. Now I die-cut the Christmas Garland Frame die and the sentiment from white cardstock, trimmed the frame, adhered the die-cuts to the panel and adhered the panel to the card.

Then I die-cut the poinsettia from vellum, white cardstock and gold foil cardstock, assembled the flower, layered it with rustic twine and adhered it to the card. Finally, I added White Pearls.

How about you? Do you like this color combo? Thanks for stopping by today, see you next week!

Merry Mice Cards with Ana and Franci

Hello crafty friends! Ana here today with an adorable card featuring the cutest ever Merry Mice stamps and coordinating dies. These mice are just too cute for words and I couldn’t wait to start playing with them!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Mice Woodland Borders Fancy Frame Dies Christmas Card by Ana Anderson

I started with stamping adorable images with Memento Tuxedo black ink, coloring them with Copic markers and cutting them with coordinating dies. The colors I used to color the images were inspired by the multicolored snowflakes pattern paper from Very Merry paper pack, which I used to create the frame for my scene.

I cut the frame with Fancy Frames rectangle dies, added a thin pink frame on top (from the same Very Merry paper pack) then started working on my background. I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark Watermark ink on a piece of blue snowflake patterned paper (from Holiday Cheer paper pack) and white heat embossed it.

To create snowy hills, I die cut two pieces of white cardstock using Woodland Borders die, then inked each die cut with ColorBox Dyestress ink in Capri. Finally, I assembled my card and added a few highlights and falling snow with white gel pen.

I had so much fun creating this card – these mice are soo adorable, I am still giggling when I look at their sweet faces! Thank you so much for stopping by today – I will see you next week, and until then I wish you Happy Crafting!

Hi there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with you today with a mice festive little gift tag. Awww it's finally time to show you a project made with my favorite set from the new release, the Merry Mice stamp set! I love all these little mice you can dressed up for Winter/Christmas, they're adorable!!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Mice Woodland Borders Fancy Frame Dies Scalloped Tag Dies Christmas Tag by Franci Vignoli

First of all I die cut the largest Scalloped Circle Tag twice out of white cardstock and I die cut one of them with the Woodland Border, to create a little stitched snowy hill. I colored the other one with Distress inks, let it dry and added some watercolor + white little splatters.

I die cut a little tag using one of the dies included in the Fancy Frames rectangle dies set and stamped part of my sentiment on. Then I stamped, colored and die cut all my little mice and all their Christmas accessorizes. Look at those earmuffs, come on, how can you resist that much cuteness?!?!?

I stamped my "Christmouse" on to the snowy hill and glue it down to the tag with liquid glue, then I added all the images with foam tape. I assembled all the other elements and added some embellishments like the new Blue Snowflake Confetti + some White Nuvo Drops.

Hope I inspired you to create some sweet festive projects today and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hogs & Kisses Cards with Angelica and Juliana

Hello friends, Angelica here with a festive Hogs & Kisses Christmas card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Hogs & Kisses Rustic Winter Scenic Route Woodland Borders Fancy Frame Dies Winter Themed Christmas Card by Angelica Conrad

I stamped the hogs using Milk Chocolate Hybrid Ink, and colored them with the following Copic Colors: Hogs- R22, R20, R01, R00, R000, R0000, shading with V93, and V91; Hoofs- E77, E74; Santa hat and scarf- R39, R29, R27, R24, C02, C0; Present- R39, R29, R24, C02, C01, glitter gel pen; Scarf- YG17, YG05, YG03, RV19, RV14, RV13; Antlers: E44, E43, E42. I used the coordinating dies to die-cut them.

I blended Tattered Rose, Victorian Velvet, and Stormy Sky Distress Oxide inks onto white card stock for the background. The trees are die-cuts from Rustic Winter Dies. I backed the trees with chocolate card stock, and used E71 and E77 to add marks to them. I glued them to the background, then added white die-cut hills from the Woodland Borders Die set.

I stamped and heat-embossed a sentiment using words from Hogs and Kisses and Santa Claus Lane stamp set onto gray card stock, and used foam squares to add the sentiment to the background. The hogs were added next, then the panel was attached to a card base. My final step was adding a frame, die-cutting Classic Gingham paper with a Fancy Frame Rectangle die.

That's all that I have for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Sunny Studio Friends! It's Juliana here and today I'm sharing a festive Christmas scene card featuring the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set. I've combined it with some other fun sets that add the perfect pieces for completing the scene.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Hogs & Kisses Cruising Critters Scenic Route Woodland Borders Winter Themed Christmas Card by Juliana Michaels

From the very beginning I thought it would be so fun to put the cute pigs from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set inside the car from the Cruising Critters Stamp Set. I used scissors to trim off the critters that come in the card and a white gel pen to cover up the stamping lines from that part of the stamp.

When it came time to fill the car though, only one pig fit, so I filled the rest of the car with presents and a string of lights from the Santa Claus Lane Stamp Set and the small fir tree from the Seasonal Trees Stamp Set. All of the images were colored with Copic Markers and then die cut using the coordinating dies for each stamped image.

Once I had the car all figured out, I knew I needed some scenery behind it. For this, I used the fir trees with hillside and neighborhood house border stamps from the Scenic Route Stamp Set. I stamped each image across the top of a 5.5 x 4.25 inch piece of paper. After coloring each of the images, I die cut each piece using the coordinating Scenic Route Dies. This left each piece of paper with a large section of white paper below the image. I did some ink blending below the stamped sections with Distress Oxide in Tumbled Glass to give them a more snowy look. I then layered and adhered the pieces together.

To complete the background, I took another piece of cardstock at 5.5 x 4.25 inches and ink blended the sky using Distress Oxide in Faded Jeans and Blueprint Sketch. I splattered the piece with a bit of water to activate the ink and then dabbed it dry to reveal the “snowflakes”. Once this piece was finished I layered the scene on top. I then finished off the card with a sentiment created using a combination of word stamps from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set and Santa Claus Lane Stamp Set.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this festive Christmas scene featuring the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set

Sweet Treat Projects with Leanne and Eloise

Hi everyone! Leanne here today. It's never too early to start thinking about holiday gift giving so I have a treat bag idea to share with you.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sweet Treat Gift Bag Sweet Treats House Sweet Word Die Season's Greetings Warm & Cozy Christmas Treat Bag by Leanne West

I've used the new Sweet Treat Bag die to create a festive tote style bag to hold any little gift or some special treats. I've mixed and matched a bunch of different Sunny Studio products to create and decorate the bag. They are all listed and linked below:

Sweet Treat Bag Dies - the bag & tiny tag
Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad - peppermint candy patterned paper
Fancy Frames Square Dies - red scalloped frame
Warm & Cozy Dies - hot chocolate mug
Sweet Word Die - die cut "sweet" 
Basic Mini Shapes Dies - holly leaves
Season's Greetings stamp set - to/from stamped on tag
Alpaca Holiday stamp set - Christmas wishes
Peppermint Confetti - used for the holly berries

Be sure to check out the video here for a tutorial on the assembly of the bag. The bag itself is very quick and easy to assemble. The sky's the limit when it comes to decorating. I chose a candy and cocoa theme for mine. I just love that fun peppermint candy pattern that I used for the body of the bag. Sunny Studio patterned papers are the perfect weight for projects like this. The paper is 65lb. weight which creates a sturdy bag.  It can be filled with candy or would be a fun way to give a gift card.

-------------------------------------------------------

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I’ll be using the Sweet Treat House Add On Set to create my card today.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sweet Treats House Add On Dies Christmas Card by Eloise Blue

I started off with making a card base from plain white cardstock. I cut it down to 3 3/8” wide by 9” long. I then scored it at 4 ½” inches and also scored ½” strips along the front of the card to look like wood paneling.

I then die cut out all the elements I would be using. I used a dark grey and black cardstock to cut the scallop roofing out. I used some yellow cardstock for behind the windows and door and then used some wood veneer paper for the door and window frames. I also used some green for the wreath and red for the bow.

I adhered all my pieces together and adhered them onto my card base to resemble a little Christmas decorated farmhouse. I opted not to use a sentiment, but you could easily add one if you like.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I’ll see you all next time.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Merry Mice Cards with Chitra Nair

Hello friends, Chitra here with another set of cards to share with you all!!
This time I got to play with another SUPER cute set from the new winter release called Merry Mice and its coordinating dies.


Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Mice Scalloped Tag Dies Christmas Cards by Chitra Nair

I started by ink blending a white card panel with oxide inks (Dried Marigold, Picked Raspberry and Seedless Preserve) and splattering water on top of it and dried it off with a towel. Once dry I splattered white and silver watercolor from Gansai Tambi watercolors. Then I stamped the images onto Crafter's Companion ultra smooth white cardstock using memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored with copics then die-cut it out using coordinating dies.

I took another piece of white cardstock which is embossed using Buffalo Plaid embossing folder, adhered that to a white card base. I made snowy ground for the mice, adhered that to the colored panel and then I adhered all the images to the panel some using foam squares and some directly.

The sentiment is white heat embossed using WOW white embossing powder. Then I glued few cheese as Christmas ornament for the mice, drew the lines using black gel pen. I also added few highlights using white gel pen and also added glitter to the cap and scarf.

For my second card I used scalloped tag square die along with the cute Merry Mice and its coordinating diesFirst I die cut out a square tag using the dies and white cardstock and then did some ink blending on it using oxide inks (Twisted Citron and squeezed lemonade and scattered straw), then splattered some plain water and dried it out using towel. Once dry I splattered some white and silver watercolor from Gansai Tambi watercolors.

Images are all stamped onto Crafter's Companion ultra smooth white cardstock and colored with Copics and cut out using coordinating dies. I took a colored cardstock and used Buffalo Plaid embossing folder to emboss the pattern on it and adhered it directly to bottom of the card base and then adhered the tag on top of it.

The sentiment is heat embossed on black cardstock using WOW white embossing powder. The sentiment is adhered using foam squares and I also adhered the images. I added some details using white Signo gel pen and glued natural jute twine on the tag.
