Sneak Peek: Baked With Love, Loopy, & Icing Rectangle Frame Dies

Hello, and welcome to the first day of our Spring Sneak Peek Week!  All this week, I am sharing cards showcasing our newest collection, which will be available for purchase this Friday!

Card No.1:  Today I'm happy to be sharing ideas with our adorable new Baked with Love Stamps and Dies. This set includes a variety of heart cookies, a fun oversized cookie sheet, and a number of baking-themed kitchen accessories. 

I started this card by creating a subtle white pierced background using the Dotted Diamond Portrait Die. To form a shelf to hang my oven mitts and spatulas from, I used the crown molding from our Distinctive Door Dies. For my greeting, I cut out one of the two labels from our new Loopy Rectangle Frames Dies, first from metallic silver cardstock and then from white cardstock, to fill the center. I then inked the center with a light amount of Mermaid Lagoon Distress ink and stamped a punny greeting from the Baked with Love Stamps. My own kitchen is accented with red, but I must admit this card made me think how happy a rainbow of colors would be!

Card No.2: For my second card, I started by stamping the large oversized baking sheet from the Baked With Love Stamps and arranged six heart cookies with sprinkles from the set, added to personalize two of the cookies. I colored all the images with Copic Markers and then framed them with the largest frame from our Loopy Rectangle Frames Dies, which looks a bit like icing. I cut a second frame from pink textured cardstock to fill the center and stamped my kraft background using the Background Basics 2 Stamps. Lastly, I stamped the cute greeting from the Baked With Love set onto a pale pink banner die-cut with the Brilliant Banner 2 Dies.

Card No. 3: For my next card using the Baked With Love Stamps, I kept an almost identical color palette, but this time I stamped my background with the polka-dot border from the Background Basics 2 Stamps. I paired my heart cookies from the new set with the cocoa, coffee, latte, and star cookie from the Mug Hugs Stamps. I then framed the grouping with one of our new Radiating Circle Dies (to be shared more closely tomorrow) and stamped it with a greeting from the Mug Hugs set.

Card No.4: Next up is another card using the baking sheet from the Baked With Love Stamps, but this time I scattered the cookies and other kitchen accessories to look a bit messy after what I picture as a long day of baking. I once again stamped my card's background using the same Background Basics 2 Stamps and added a scalloped edge using the Icing Border Dies. I completed my card by creating a custom sentiment using our new Sydney Alphabet Dies, together with the cookie image in place of the letter "O".

Card No.5: Up next, I switched things up with a new color palette, coloring the cookies from the Baked With Love Stamps in shades of pink and arranging them in a 3x3 grid. For my card base, I cut the Scalloped Square 2 Large Die and layered it with a Stitched Square cut from a hot pink diagonal stripe from the Sleek Stripes Paper set. For my greeting, I substituted the words "Love You" with words from our Gift Card Pocket Dies and Scalloped Oval Mat 2 Dies. If you don't have either of these two sets, you could also spell out the words using our Loopy Letters Alphabet Dies. Finally, I positioned the icing bag to look like it was spelling out the scripty words in icing.

Card No.6: For my last card of the day, I couldn't resist pairing the Baked With Love Stamps with the cookies from our Baking Spirits Bright Stamps. This new set was born out of my wanting a baking sheet and other accessories to pair with the holiday set. Unlike my second card, this time I gave my baking sheet a landscape orientation and colored the snowman, mitten, and snowflake cookies to coordinate in blue and white. I framed my little scene using the new Icing Rectangle Frame Dies and filled the center with a cutout from the Classic Gingham Paper pack. Lastly, I stamped a punny sentiment from the Baking Spirits Bright set onto a Brilliant Banner 3 Die.

Holiday Hugs Valentine's Day Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! Happy New Year! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today, and I am thrilled to share a sweet postcard-style Valentine's Day card featuring the adorable bear from the Holiday Hugs set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Hugs Valentine's Day Card by Hanh Nguyen (featuring Gift Card Envelope Dies, Diagonal Stripes Stencils, Inside Greetings)

I am currently obsessed with postage and postcard-style cards. I was so excited to pair this cute bear with some stamp die cuts from the 
Gift Card Envelope Dies and stenciling with the Diagonal & Straight Stripes Stencils to create a postcard-like design. So let's get started.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Hugs Valentine's Day Card by Hanh Nguyen (featuring Gift Card Envelope Dies, Diagonal Stripes Stencils, Inside Greetings)

I stamped the bear and heart images from the Holiday Hugs Stamp onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Holiday Hugs Dies to die cut them out. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Bear: W00/0/1, W1/5/7, R000/20
Scarf: R14//24/29, RV10/21, C0/1
Heart: R14/24/29

For the background, I used the 
Diagonal & Straight Stripes Stencils and some Candied Apple Distress ink to create a striped border on a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I took another piece of white cardstock and lightly ink-blended some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink onto the edges. I trimmed a bit off the edges of the pink panel and adhered the two panels together.

For the sentiment, I stamped the "Happy Valentine's Day" sentiment and red heart from the Foxy Friends Stamp set, the "Sending Love &" sentiment from the Big Bunny Stamp set, "Hugs" sentiment from the Holiday Hugs Stamp set and the "Especially For You" sentiment from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamp set directly onto the pink panel with Versafine Satin Red and Onyx Black inks. I used a black pen to draw in the line and dots to create a separation of the left and right side of the postcard.

I used the 
Gift Card Envelopes Dies to die-cut two stamps and the LOVE and XOXO letters out of white, red, and silver cardstock. I affixed them to the upper-right corner of my postcard. I adhered the bear to the panel with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to a white A2 card base.

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I was super happy that I was able to create the postcard design. Be on the lookout, you may see more postcard-style cards from me. I hope you liked my card and are inspired to create your own postcard-style cards to send out. For more info and ideas, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspiration.

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Snowmen In Sweaters Card with Amanda

Hey crafty friends! It's Amanda here with you on the Sunny Studio blog today and I'm just in AWE that 2026 is HERE! I hope you have had a wonderful 2025! I'm sharing a card I made using only the Snowmen in Sweaters Stamps and the Joyful Holiday Paper!  

Sunny Studio Stamps: Snowmen In Sweaters Winter Themed Holiday Card by Amanda Fitterer

This card is ALL about the colors! What's better than a bright and cheery card in the middle of winter?! To create this card, I trimmed a beautiful pink snowy paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper to 5.25" x 2.75". I glued this panel straight to an A2 card base. Next, I stamped all of my snowmen, snowflakes and sentiment with alcohol marker-friendly black ink.  

I colored in my snowmen using Copic markers. Here are the colors I used:
RV10, RV11, RV14
R30, R32, R35
YR04, YR09
Y000, Y11, Y19
YG000, YG01, YG03, YG05
BG10, BG11, BG13
BV000, BV00, BV02, BV04
T0, T2

After I finished coloring in my adorable snowmen, I cut them out with the coordinating dies. I also die cut the sentiment and snowflakes. I placed 3D foam squares behind all the images and sentiment and adhered them to my card front.

A little snowy scene that warms the heart! Thank you so much for coming by the blog today - and don't forget to come back tomorrow for more crafty inspiration! Happy 2026 to you and yours!

Merry Mice & Harvest Mice Love-Themed Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm back one last time on the blog with this colorful and fun Valentine card featuring a big mix and match of stamps and dies. My journey with Sunny Studio ends today, after almost five amazing years full of bright colors, cute critters and busy little scenes. I used the mice on many cards and created a lot of scenes with them, so I had to feature them one last time as a nod to my time on Sunny Studio's design team.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Mice & Harvest Mice Love Themed Card by Marine Simon (featuring Heart Bouquet, Bursting Hearts Dies, Stitched Arch Dies, Quilted Heart Dies, Scalloped Heart Dies)

I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink, I cut them all with the matching dies and colored everything with my Ohuhu markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Merry Mice + Harvest Mice - mice • Bighearted Bears - envelopes, bows • Heart Bouquet - balloons. When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.

Next I worked on all the panels to create the background. I cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches aqua panel, mixed some liquid stardust with water and added sparkling splatters to my panel using a slim brush. While my panel was drying, I cut a Bursting Hearts panel out of turquoise cardstock, added sparkling splatters and white splatters to it, and once dry, I attached it to the aqua panel using 1mm foam squares, and then to a white card base.

For the heart-shaped panel, I first cut a large Stitched Heart 2 panel out of light pink cardstock, ran it through my die cutting machine along with the Quilted Heart Portrait die to cut tiny hearts out of it, and then added splatters to my pink heart. I cut another large Stitched Heart 2 panel out of white cardstock and stuck the pink heart panel on top using 1mm foam squares. I cut a large Scalloped Heart panel out of pearlescent vellum, attached my pink heart panel to it using liquid glue, and finally stuck my heart panel to the card base using 1mm foam squares.

Next I stamped "You are always in my heart" from My Heart on white cardstock using red dye ink, cut it with the matching die, and stuck it in the middle of my Stitched Heart 2 pink heart using 1mm foam squares. I attached the images on both sides of the heart using 2mm foam squares, and then added a scattering of hearts all over the card. I cut those hearts out of red cardstock using Stitched Hearts 2 dies, attached them using foam squares, and finally applied glossy accents on each of them to add more shine and sparkle to my card.
