Roly Poly Penguins Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today sharing a fun Christmas card featuring these adorable Roly Poly Penguins who are using the Build-a-Greeting Holidays Stamp set to wish you a Holly Jolly Christmas.

For the layout, I diecut a piece of white cardstock using the outer die of the Frilly Frames Polka Dot Dies. Next, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock and lightly ink blended it with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink. I trimmed the pink panel down to fit inside white scalloped panel. 

I stamped the images from the Roly Poly Penguins Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Roly Poly Penguins Dies to diecut them out. I also used the Basic Mini Shape Dies and Basic Mini Shape Dies 3 to diecut some holly leaves and berries out of white and red cardstock. I colored the elements with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T4/5/7/9, W00/0/1, Y38 YR04, R00/20
Red: R24/29/39
Green: YG01/03/17
White: C00/1/3

For the sentiment, I diecut a banner out of red cardstock using the Brilliant Banner 3 Dies.  The Build-a-Greeting Holidays Stamp set from the latest release was used to create a sentiment. I stamped the sentiment with Versamark Watermark ink onto the red banner and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder.

I adhered the sentiment banner and all of the colored images onto the inked panel with foam tape. I added some snowflakes diecut from white cardstock using the Basic Mini Shape Dies 2 and the Basic Mini Shape Dies 5. Finally, I adhered the entire panel onto the front of a top folding white 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. Be sure to check out the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Santa's Stocking & Woolen Mitten Shaped Holiday Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi, popping in to share some shaped Christmas cards for giving gift cards featuring our Santa's Stocking Dies and Woolen Mitten Dies.

For my first card, I created a fairisle print for our Santa's Stocking Dies using the decorative elements from the Woolen Mitten Dies and the thinnest stitched pennant strip from the Slimline Pennant Dies. I added the aqua hearts in the center of each fairisle motif using the smallest heart from the Basic Mini Shape 2 Dies. To create my pocket for the gift card, I cut two stockings from white cardstock and used a thin line of liquid adhesive around the outside edge to adhere the two pieces together. I stamped a customized "May your Christmas be wrapped in joy" greeting from our new Build-a-Greeting Holidays Stamps onto the cuff using Versafine Onyx Black Ink and added highlights to the bow and candy canes from the Santa's Stocking set with a white gel pen.

I created mitten gift card pockets for my second set of cards today, featuring the Woolen Mitten Dies. This cute and simple design is easy to mass produce for holiday gift giving, whether cash or gift cards. To add a touch of realism to my mittens, I embossed the top piece using the Cable Knit Embossing Folder and inked the edges with a coordinating Gina K. Turquoise Sea and PinkFresh Studio Raspberry Bliss inks. I found the perfect sentiment from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps, which I stamped onto a Scalloped Heart Die cut from white cardstock. I added a small coordinating stitched heart to fill the space below the greeting from the Warm & Cozy Dies. Lastly, I embellished the cuff with a snowflake and assembled button that comes with the Woolen Mittens set. I love how realistic these buttons look, but they are much slimmer for mailing!  Also, today's cards all can fit A2-sized envelopes (aside from the popped-up candy canes).

That wraps up my projects for today. Thanks so much for hanging out with me. I hope I've inspired you to spread a little happiness by sending out a card to someone you love. 💛
