Designer Choice Cards with Candice and Kay

Hello my crafty friends, it's Candice with you this Friday! One of my favorite Sunny Studio sets is this Merry Mice one with these adorable little Christmas mice!

I used these Sunny Studio products for my slimline design:

• Merry Mice stamps & coordinating dies
• Harvest Mice stamps & coordinating dies
• Slimline Scalloped Frame dies
• Slimline Nature Borders dies

I began my slimline with an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base. For the background, I die cut the stitched panel from Bristol Smooth cardstock, inked it with cracked pistachio, salvaged patina, and tumbled glass, and splattered with white paint and gold shimmer spray with a damp paint brush.

Next, I stamped the mice and accessories from the Merry Mice and Harvest Mice stamp sets, colored the with Copic markers, and used the coordinating dies listed above to cut them out. I arranged them on the stitched snow hills and stamped the sentiment along the top!

Thank you for visiting today!

Hi there! Kay here today with a card I created with just die cuts. The only stamping on the whole card is the sentiment. I really love this look! This card is a tribute to the last days of summer. Soon I'll be wanting to make fall and Christmas things. I used several different products from Sunny Studio stamps and will list and link them in the descriptions below.

To start off with I cut a light blue rectangle out with the smallest of the Stitched Rectangle dies. Next I cut out a while piece with the same die and cut the top of it with the clouds die from the Slimline Nature Borders dies. I then cut another dark blue piece out with the same Stitched Rectangles die. I cut this off about half way and glued that down to the light blue piece. I then cut another lighter blue piece out with the same die and cut it about one third of the way down using the scalloped edge from the Slimline Pennants dies. Next I cut out the sand using the same small stitched rectangle die and then cut it along the bottom to create the curve using the Slimline Nature Borders dies.

I stamped the sentiment from the Tiki Time stamp set with brown ink along the sand layer. Next I cut out three houses from the Comic Strip Everyday dies and assembled them to look like little beach houses. I then added them to the top of the sand border with foam tape. Next I cut out the sun and the clouds from the Comic Strip Everyday dies and added them to the sky with foam tape. Lastly the whole panel was added to a top folded A2 size card base.

I hope you all have had a lovely summer so far! Happy weekend!
