Majestic Meadow Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am making a fun oval shaped card using the Majestic Meadow stamp and die set. What makes this set so great is not only the wonderful scene but also the dies that give you lots of options on how to cut this background. For this project I used one of the separate dies that cuts the tulip borders.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Majestic Meadows Friendship Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Stitched Oval Dies, Scalloped Oval Mat Dies, Hello Word Die, Party Pets)

But let’s start with preparing a white oval card base with the largest of the Stitched Ovals 2While I had my die cutting machine out, I also created a white scalloped oval (largest of the Scalloped Oval Mat 3 dies).

Next, I stamped the entire background (Majestic Meadow stamp), some cute kitties (Party Pets), three clouds (Tulip Path background) and enjoyed the coloring with my Copics!

I wanted to place the cats as if they stood ‘in the middle of the scene’. This is where the separate dies from the Majestic Meadow stamp come in handy! I used one of these dies to cut the tulips from the left bottom corner. The rest of the scene was cut with the border die and turned into on oval shape using the largest of the Stitched Ovals dies.

To piece everything back together into a ‘new background’ I cut another white oval with the same die. And finally, this die was also used to ‘curve’ the bottom of the tulip piece.

I inked up my white oval with Antique Linen Distress Oxide and glued it to the white scalloped oval. This whole piece was then mounted to the oval card base.

Next, I glued the hills and tree part onto the beige oval. I used some foam tape for the tulips so I could put the cats ‘behind’ this flower border. Then I glued the three clouds in place.

For my sentiment, I stacked three layers of the Hello Word die from green card stock and one top layer from white paper. I love how this Majestic Meadow stamp and die set gives you so many options in creating custom made backgrounds! I hope you will enjoy this set too!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card with Amanda

Hey crafty friends, Amanda here! I’m glad you’re here today with me on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog! Today I’m sharing a sweet little Hello card!  

Sunny Studio Stamps: Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card by Amanda Fitterer (featuring Tulip Path Background, Dotted Diamond Dies)

I was playing around with the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies and thought it would be cool to create a little background that’s 3 separate rectangles. I used the 3rd smallest of the 8 nested rectangles.

First, I stamped the Tulip Path Background Stamp with black ink. Then I die cut the 3 rectangles out of my stamped image. I also stamped the bunny and Hello sentiment from the Tulip Path Background Stamp.

I colored the rectangles and bunny with Copic markers. I die cut the bunny and sentiment with the coordinating die set.

Bunny: E51, E53, E55, E57, W7, R00, R20, R22
Trees: BG90, BG93, BG96, BG99 | YG93, YG95, YG97 | E71, E74, E79 | G94, G99
Windmill: Y32, Y35, E30, E31, E33, E35, E70, E71
Flowers: G43, G36, Y21, Y35
Grass: YG61, YG63, G40
Path: E40, E41, E42, E43, W0, W2, W4, W6
Mountains: G20

Sunny Studio Stamps: Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card by Amanda Fitterer (featuring Tulip Path Background, Dotted Diamond Dies)

I ran a piece of brown cardstock trimmed to 3” x 5.5” through my die cutting machine with the Dotted Diamond Landscape Die. I glued this to the center of my A2 card base. I put foam tape behind each of my rectangles and adhered them to the card. I applied 3D foam squares to the bunny and sentiment and then adhered them to the card as well.

I love the neutral, calming colors of this card. And that little bunny is just too cute! Thanks for coming to the blog today and hanging out with me! I hope you find some crafty time today!

Background Basics 2 Card with Leanne

Hi everyone! Leanne here. It's usually this time during the winter months that I start to get really anxious for spring. I just couldn't resist brightening my spirits and craft desk with creating a card with a pretty spring color palette.  

Sunny Studio Stamps: Background Basics 2 Spring Themed Card by Leanne West (featuring Gift Card Envelope Dies, Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies, Lovely Lilacs)

I have used a mix of Sunny Studio products for this design including the new Basic Backgrounds 2 stamps. Instead of using the grid pattern stamp to create a background, I have used it to give the envelope a subtle pattern. After die cutting the envelope, I stamped the pattern before folding and adhering the bottom & sides. 

Here are the additional stamps and dies I've used to create this card: 

Rounded Rectangle Mat dies (I used the largest in the set)

Gift Card Envelope dies (for the envelope and hearts)

Lovely Lilacs stamps & coordinating dies

Big Bunny stamps & coordinating dies (for the greeting)

Sunny Studio Stamps: Background Basics 2 Spring Themed Card by Leanne West (featuring Gift Card Envelope Dies, Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies, Lovely Lilacs)

To stamp the lilacs, their foliage, and the greeting, I used some Pink Fresh Studio inks. The pink shades are Ballet Slipper, Sparkling Rose, & Bubble Gum. The green shades are Fresh Pear, Grassy Knoll, & Key Lime.

Party Pets Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with a fun shaker birthday card to share with you showcasing the adorable Party Pets set. I absolutely adore this set and have gotten so much mileage out of it. I make birthday cards more than any other cards. This set is jam packed with so many super cute cat and dog images that are perfect for birthday cards. It also includes two different balloon images and a beautiful Happy Birthday sentiment ... a must for making birthday cards.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Party Pets Birthday Shaker Card by Hanh Nguyen (featuring Slimline Dies, Rounded Rectangle Window Dies)

I stamped the images from the Party Pets stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Party Pets Dies to die cut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Cats 1 & 3: Y21 YR21/24, R30
Cat 2: W1/3/5, R30
Red: R22/24/27/29/39

Sunny Studio Stamps: Party Pets Birthday Shaker Card by Hanh Nguyen (featuring Slimline Dies, Rounded Rectangle Window Dies)

I used the Slimline Nature Borders Dies to die cut a piece of clear acetate to make my own cloud stencil. I ink blended a cloudy background with this stencil and some Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock.

For the shaker, I used the second largest die from the Rounded Rectangle Window Dies to die cut a window out of white cardstock. I adhered a piece of clear acetate to the backside to create the shaker window. I added a layer of foam tape onto the backside to create the shaker well. I added some sparkling clear confetti sequins for my shaker bits before closing off the shaker well with the inked cloudy panel.

For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Party Pets stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of red cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the coordinating Party Pets Dies to die cut it out. I adhered the sentiment and colored images to the front of the shaker. I used a Copic Multiliner pen to draw in the balloon strings. Finally, I adhered the shaker 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. For more info, ideas and to check out the entire Spring Release, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Foxy Friends Card with Nicky

Happy Friday friends, this is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog and I have a CAS card to share with you today using the adorable Foxy Friends stamp set.  Please continue reading for all the details.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Foxy Friends Birthday Card by Nicky Meeks (featuring Limitless Label Dies)

I took a panel of sturdy white cardstock with A2 dimensions and I die cut the first panel using the largest die from the Limitless Labels 1 Dies.  I then used the next size down in the set to die cut the centre cut that I'd produced the first time.

With the largest/outermost panel I backed it with 2 layers of dimensional foam tape and adhered this to my already prepared card base.  With the next size down die cut, I added just 1 layer of dimensional tape and nestled it inside the opening and stuck it down.

With the smallest die cut piece which would form the focal point, I ink blended with Spun Sugar and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks and I then splattered it with water to distress it a little before adding glue and adhering it to the card directly.  The effect is of a little bit of a tunnel.

I stamped the images from Foxy Friends using black ink and I coloured with the following Copic markers:

Fox - E99, E13, E11, C3, C1, C00
Wagon - E44, E41, C1, W4
Birds - BG49, BG15, BG11
Potted Tulips - C3, C1, C00, G19, G07, R22, R20
Blushes - R22, R21, R00

Sunny Studio Stamps: Foxy Friends Birthday Card by Nicky Meeks (featuring Limitless Label Dies)

Highlights were added with a white gel pen and then I die cut the images using the coordinating die setThe images were then backed with foam tape and added to the ink blended background.

To complete the card I added shadows under the different elements and dotted in some interest and I stamped the sentiment on the smallest size label from the Limitless Labels Die Set and added that along with a few sparkling clear sequins.

I do hope you enjoyed my card today and are inspired to create your own.  I'll be back next Friday with something new to share, have a great weekend.

Window Trio Heart Die Focused Card with Nicky

Welcome to the Sunny Studio Stamps blog friends! This is Nicky with you today and I have fun mini slimline card to share with you that features the Window Trio Hearts Landscape Die in combination with other Sunny products. Read on for all the details.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Window Trio Heart Die Focused Birthday Card with Nicky Meeks (featuring Foxy Friends, Brilliant Banner Dies)

I created two mini slimline panels of white cardstock with dimensions of 6 1/4 x 3 1/2 inches. With one of the panels I ink blended with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink, fading away to the white at the bottom. I then die cut the panel using the Window Trio Hearts landscape Die.  I laid the die cut panel on top of the second mini slimline panel and glued the hearts in place. I then added foam tape to the rest of the die cut panel and stuck it down carefully so that I was aligning the hearts properly.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Window Trio Heart Die Focused Birthday Card with Nicky Meeks (featuring Foxy Friends, Brilliant Banner Dies)

I put a fairly generous amount of glue into each indented heart shape and I sprinkled in a pastel mix of sequins and tapped them down just a little and left them to dry.

I stamped and Copic coloured the images from Foxy Friends. Here are the combinations used:

Foxes - E99, E15, E13, E11, C3, C1, C0
Blushes - R22, R21, R20, R00
Birds - BG34, BG11, C3, C1

The images were die cut using the coordinating dies and applied to the scene with dimensional foam tape and I also added a little highlighting with a white gel pen.

I arranged the words to form the sentiment on my stamping block so that they mirrored the curl of the Brilliant Banner 3 Die which I'd used to die cut white cardstock. I stamped the sentiment with black ink and then used a little peachy pink ink to blend the parts of the banner and then glued them together. The banner was backed with foam tape and applied above the trio of hearts.

Lastly, I used Copic W3 and W1 to add shade under the foxes and birds and I dotted in a little interest within the shaded area with a metallic gel pen.

I hope you enjoyed this card. I wish you some happy time this weekend in your craft space and I'll be back next Friday with something new.

Cat Antics Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm happy to be back with this colorful and festive birthday card showcasing a mix & match of recent and previously released items, including Cat Antics from the Spring 2025 release. I've created this card as a companion to the Party Pets slimline card I shared a few weeks ago, and I love how they're both different but compliment each other very well.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Cat Antics Birthday Card by Marine Simon (featuring Party Pets, Holiday Express, Ribbon & Lace Border Dies, Stitched Square Dies)

I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers in a color palette I really love: pink, orange and yellow, with touches of brown. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Cat Antics - cats • Party Pets - balloons, party hats, presents • Holiday Express - train • Balloon Rides - banners.

Next I cut multiple stripes out of colored cardstock using a Ribbon & Lace Border die, and attached them all on a slightly smaller panel than the regular A2 size using liquid glue. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters to my stripe panel, and then did the same with fossilized amber distress spritz for a touch of gold. Once it was dry,  I stuck my stripe panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches white panel, and then the whole thing to a white card base.

I cut three squares out of different Gingham Pastels papers using the 1-1/2 inch Stitched Square die, attached those squares on the upper part of my card using 1mm foam squares, I stuck all the images using foam squares again, and then added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.

For my sentiment, I cut a speech bubble out of vellum using a Comic Strip Speech Bubbles die, I gold heat embossed "Make A Wish" from Make A Wish on the vellum bubble, and attached it on my panel using transparent foam squares. To finish my card, I glued a scattering of mini star confetti to add even more cuteness and shine to my panel. 

And that's it! I hope you like this fun and lovely birthday card. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week!
