Tulip Path Background Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with an Easter card to share with you showcasing the beautiful Tulip Path Background Stamps. This gorgeous scene can be an easy backdrop for a variety of cards. 

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

COPIC COLORS:
Bunnies: E50/51/53/3
Flowers: RV00/02/04, YG01/03
Trees: RV00/02/04, E21/23
Grass: G20/24
Mountains: BV000/00
Windmill: E23, C3
Path: E41/42
Sky: B0000/000

I used the largest die from the Stitched Square Dies to diecut the panel.

For the sentiment, I die cut the letters for EASTER using the Chloe Alphabet Dies 3 times out of white cardstock. I stacked and adhered the layers together. I took a strip of vellum (1.25" x 5.5") and stamped the Happy sentiment from the Inside Greetings Belated Birthday Stamps on it before adhering the word Easter onto it. I wrapped and folded the excess to the back of my colored panel.

I adhered a piece of craft foam to the back of the colored panel before adhering it to a piece of white cardstock and slightly larger green cardstock. The panels were adhered to a white 5.5" square cardbase. Finally, I adhered the bunnies and butterflies with foam tape for a bit of interest and dimension. 

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.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Sara Zoppi

Hi crafty friends, Sara Zoppi here! Today I am happy to be here, guesting again for Sunny Studio Stamps! Today, I have two hoppy inspirations to show you, featuring some of the recently released products and some of the previously released ones. So, let's dive into the first card!

Bunnies are always so fun, and they're the typical critters for spring as we approach Easter. Anyway, I tried to use them differently, because they're perfect with flowers too!

For my first card, I decided to pair the two bunnies included in the Balloon Number Stamps, but, instead of hanging some balloon stripes, I hand-drew some flowers in their hand. I also added two of the bunnies included in the previous released Bunnyville Stamps (which perfectly match dimensions and design) to create a garden scene: one is hanging out of a watering can, surrounded by colored flowers which I totally hand drew. 

I kept the scene simple, and here are the Copic colors I used:

- Grey bunnies: W4 – W3 – E41 – E40 – E11 | RV34 – R20
- Brown bunnies: E23 – E55 – E42 – E30 – E50 – E11 | RV34 – R20
- Watering can: BG18 – BG57 – BG53
- Flowers: R14 – YR68 – R22 – R21 – Y38
- Greenery: G43 – G94 – G20

As you might see, there are also small details in black. I used a fine black liner pen to add them, and I thought they worked well with the simple design. I then moved to the sentiment, from the Big Bunny Stamps, which I white heat-embossed on black cardstock. I also die-cut it using coordinating dies (I cut it twice to get some depth) and glued it down in the top right corner. I directly stamped the word spring which comes from the same "Big Bunny" stamp. To complete the card, I trimmed the scene to 5" x 3.75", added a slightly larger green sparkly cardstock, and then a 5.75"x 4.5" grey patterned paper. And here's the finished look!

For my second inspiration, I went for a shaker card. When I saw all the small bunnies included in the new release from the Tulip Path Background Stamps, I thought it would have been perfect to match them with the Big Bunny Stamps (which I love, as well as the Big Panda and the giant bear from Holiday Hugs). I created a mum card. 

I first stamped the bunnies in light brown and colored them all using Copics (E23 – E43 – E42 – E41 – E40 – RV34 – R20). I also stamped the bouquet of tulips with a darker copic friendly brown ink and I colored it too (R46 – R14; RV09 – RV55; YR68 – YR65; Y38 – Y35 – Y32; G43).

I die-cut everything with coordinating dies and the big bunny arms to hang the bouquet. I defined all the eyes with a black fineliner: I think this gives a great touch when stamping with different colors, especially light colors.

I then moved to the rest of the card: I used the recently released Balloon Alphabet Stamps to stamp the MUM letters with coordinating inks. I tried to avoid inking the balloon curling ribbon and I used coordinating pencils to give some depth. I white heat embossed the first part of the sentiment, which comes from Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps, on some brown cardstock, and then I moved into the background.

I used the new Majestic Meadow Stamps to stamp my background, but I preferred to keep it simple and stamp it only with light brown. I trimmed a white frame from cardstock sized to 4" x 5.25" and I used foam tape and clear acetate to attach the three bunnies and the sentiment. I added some Iridescent Pastel Confetti and attached everything to my stamped background. And here's the finished result!

Thanks for stopping by! I really hope you like my projects and you will be inspired to create something!
