Sweet As Can Bee Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I am excited to share a sweet birthday card showcasing the super cute new Sweet As Can Bee set from the latest Summer Release.

I stamped the images from the Sweet As Can Bee Stamps and a branch from the Little Birdie Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Sweet As Can Bee Dies and the Little Birdies Dies to die cut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Bees: Y11/13/15/19, T1/3/5/7, R20, B000
Beehive: Y11/13/08 YR21/24, W5
Branch: E21/23/25/27
Leaves: YG01/03/25

For the background, I used Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inks to ink blend a sky background onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I used the Comic Strip Everyday Dies to die cut a frame out of white cardstock. I used a pair of scissors to snip off the dividers and leave just a border frame. Foam tape was used to adhere this white frame onto the inked panel. I added some dots with a white gel pen for a bit of interest.

For the sentiment, I used the Brilliant Banner 1 Dies and Brilliant Banner 3 Dies to die cut the banners out of black cardstock. I stamped the “Just Buzzin’ by to Say” and the custom created “Happy Bee Day” sentiments from the Sweet And Can Bee Stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto the banner die cuts and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder.

The colored images were adhered to the panel with liquid glue and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. I added a few flowers die cut from the Gift Card Envelope Dies. Finally, the panel was adhered 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. Be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop to check out the new Summer Release and for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Meow & Furever Cat Love-Themed Cards with Mendi

Hello there! I hope you had a lovely Christmas. This is Mendi popping in to share some love-themed cards for Valentine's Day featuring our adorable Meow & Furever Stamps.

For my first card showcasing the Meow & Furever Stamps, I made the adorable cat peeking through the heart-shaped cutout in his newspaper the focal point. I used a sketch for this card, keeping my card design relatively clean and simple. I relied on the fun, bright striped paper from the Spring Sunburst Paper pack and layered die-cuts to add interest. I landed on this particular color palette and patterned paper because I had colored this tabby cat image years ago, and I was looking for a way to incorporate orange into a Valentine's Day card, which felt like a bit of a challenge.

For my background, I started by die-cutting the diagonal grid print from the Gingham Pastels Paper pack using the Fishtail Banner 2 Dies. I then stacked the Stitched Heart 2 Die, cut from Bazzill's swiss dot cardstock, with a white Scalloped Heart Die inked with a bit of Salty Ocean Distress ink in the center. Lastly, I heat-embossed the punny "Meow You Doin'?" phrase from the Meow & Furever set onto a blue Brilliant Banner 1 Die.

For my second card using the Meow & Furever Stamps, I created another cat love-themed card perfect for Valentine's Day! I had colored all of my cat images and red hearts many years ago, and I was determined to use every last piece for today's cards, so it was fun challenging myself to find the perfect way to use what I had. For this card, I started with a dark kraft cardstock base and layered a blue heart print from the Flirty Flowers Paper pack over the top, which had been die-cut using the largest banner from the Slimline Pennant Dies. I added four of the smallest dies from the Scalloped Square 1 Small Dies into a 2x2 grid and centered my kitties over the top of each of the squares. I completed my card by heat-embossing the greeting from the set onto a red Brilliant Banner 2 Die and sprinkling the five small red hearts like flat mail-friendly embellishments.

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. 💛

Passionate Penguins Spring Cards with Mendi

Hello there! I hope you had a lovely Christmas. This is Mendi popping in to share some spring-themed cards featuring our beloved Passionate Penguins Stamps.

My first card showcasing the Passionate Penguins Stamps uses the cute image of the penguins in the car, which I paired with the mountains, trees, and flowers from the Spring Scenes Stamps for their scenic drive. I cut three hills for them using the Slimline Nature Border Dies and then fussy cut the street using just black cardstock with my scissors. I had planned to add the white dotted line; however, when I realized my car would be taking over the entire road, I decided to make it a one-lane street. I borrowed the sentiment from the Cruising Critters Stamps, which I heat-embossed in white to pop against the black pavement. Lastly, I added three small die-cut clouds from the Comic Strip Everyday Dies to the sky.

For my second card using the Passionate Penguins Stamps, I colored the three sets of penguin couples in monochromatic pinks. I mounted them onto three overlapping Stitched Heart 2 Dies inked with Salvaged Patina Distress ink. For my background, I blended Picked Raspberry and a hint of Seedless Preserves Distress inks (to more closely match my copic coloring using RV55, RV63, and RV52). I then die-cut the background using a shortened version of the Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies and stamped it with a heart print using stamps from the Passionate Penguins set. For my greeting, I combined words from the Passionate Penguins Stamps and the Savanna Safari Stamps, which I heat-embossed onto a Brilliant Banner 3 Die inked with Salvaged Patina ink. As a finishing touch, I added polka dots to the umbrella using a white gel pen. My finished card measures 7-1/2" wide x 3-3/4" high.

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. 💛
