Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Tammy Stark

Hello friends! Tammy here. I'm thrilled to be guest designing today with Sunny Studio's newest release. I absolutely adore this new release and have a few projects to share using one of my favorite sets, Baby Elephants.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Baby Elephants Baby Cards by Tammy Stark (featuring Slimline Dies)

For my first project, I created a pair of baby cards. How sweet are these images? So cute, I had to make both a baby girl and baby boy version!

To begin, I stamped the images from Baby Elephants, colored with Copic markers, and die cut the colored images using the Baby Elephants Dies

Next, I die cut 2 white scalloped mats using the Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies. I then cut the smaller panels from Bristol smooth cardstock and ink blended the backgrounds with Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar (baby girl card) and Peacock Feathers and Tumbled Glass (baby boy card). I then stamped the sentiments onto the cards using black ink and arranged the colored images onto the cards, attaching some with foam tape for dimension. Lastly, I adhered my completed card to a white card base to finish up.

I just love how versatile this stamp set is! I had fun creating some grad themed projects with Baby Elephants.

To begin, I stamped, colored with Copic markers, and die cut images from the following sets:
Baby Elephants Coordinating Dies
Woo Hoo Coordinating Dies

My first project is a fun box card. I began by die cutting a basic box die using black cardstock and assembled it. The back panel of the box is ink blended with Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide inks, which I then splattered with some white and black acrylic paint that was thinned with water. Next, I cut some cloud borders using the Slimline Nature Borders Dies from white cardstock and trimmed them to fit the width of the box. I then cut a rectangle panel using the blue patterned paper from the Classic Gingham 6X6 Paper, matted it with white cardstock, and attached it to the front of the box. I stamped the sentiment from Woo Hoo onto the smallest pennant from the Slimline Pennant Dies and cut to fit the front of the box. Lastly, I arranged the stamped images, attaching some with foam tape for dimension.

I also created some coordinating gift card holders; perfect for presenting a gift card or money to the grad!

To begin, I stamped, colored with Copic markers, and die cut images from the following sets:
Baby Elephants Coordinating Dies
Woo Hoo Coordinating Dies

Next, I created the gift card holders simply by cutting a piece of black cardstock 3 1/2 X 7", scoring at 3 1/2" from the bottom. I created the tag shape using the Tag Topper Die - Traditional. I then folded on the score line and placed red line tape on the sides to create a pocket. Next, I cut 2 white scalloped square frames using the Fancy Frames Square Dies. I attached the frames over a square of Bristol smooth cardstock, ink blended with Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide ink, which I then splattered with some white and black acrylic paint that was thinned with water. I stamped the sentiment from Woo Hoo in black ink, then attached the stamped images using foam tape. Lastly, I finished off the gift card holders with a fun tassel, made from embroidery floss.

Thanks so much for stopping by and thanks to Sunny Studio for having me! I hope you enjoyed my projects!
