Designer's Choice Cards with Vanessa and Audrey

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a fun baby explosion box mini album using the Baby Elephants set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Baby Elephant Explosion Box Card by Vanessa Menhorn

This box was created with an explosion box board. I created the bases from white and purple cardstock and added various pieces of patterned paper. With an envelope punch board I created matching envelopes, with the Gift Card Pocket Die little pockets for the tags. The lid is a shaker window filled with sequins and clay elements. 

These are the supplies I used for the project:
Baby Elephants stamps + dies
Candy Shoppe stamps + dies
Gift Card Pocket Die
Fluffy Clouds Border Dies
Build-A-Tag #1 Dies
Scalloped Tag Circle Dies
Window Trio Circle Dies
Gingham Pastels Paper
Dots & Stripes Pastels Paper
Flirty Flowers Paper
Sleek Stripes Paper 
Polka Dot Parade Paper
Striped Silly Paper
Rainbow Dot Confetti
Pink & Purple Heart Confetti

To provide space for text and more photos, I added many tags and pockets. The images were colored with Copic markers and die-cut with the matching dies. Can't wait to see it filled with photos of a sweet baby girl! I hope you like it :)

Happy weekend and thanks for stopping by today!

Hello friends! Audrey here with a fun gnome themed card to share with you! If you have fallen in love with this adorable stamp set and want to add it to your collection, don't delay! This set is retiring, but still in stock, and as soon as it's sold out, it's gone for good. Get yours while you can! :)

Sunny Studio Stamps: Home Sweet Gnome Card by Audrey Tokach (featuring Comic Strip Everyday Dies)

To create my card, I started off with a piece of white cardstock cut to 4" x5.25". I cut a piece of computer paper the same size, and die cut a rectangle from the center, creating a stencil or mask of sorts. I taped them together and used Distress ink in Blueprint Sketch (very lightly) and Rustic Wilderness to ink blend a background for the scene. 

Then, I stamped and colored the mushroom trio, two polka dot mushrooms, and the super cute sitting gnome from Home Sweet Gnome, all of which I cut out with the coordinating Home Sweet Gnome dies. I arranged them on the ink blended rectangle, gluing some down with liquid and popping others up with foam tape. I added a trio of tiny clouds to the sky using the Comic Strip Everyday die set, and scattered on some tiny clay hearts above the little gnome's head.

Then, I stamped a sentiment from the set on a white banner die cut, and popped that up in the grass on my scene. The entire panel was adhered to an A2 card base with foam tape, and to finish off the card, I added a few white gel pen accents.

Lacy Snowflake Die Focused Cards with Kavya and Isha

Hi folks! Kavya here with another fun project! With the holidays around the corner, I decided to make some fun tags to go with my gifts. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Lacy Snowflake Tags by Kavya (featuring Christmas Icons, Build-A-Tag 2 Dies)

I first started off by ink blending die cut Build a Tag #2 using two different distress oxide inks for each color:

  • Blue: Faded Jeans and Tumbled Glass
  • Green: Mowed Lawn and Shabby Shutters
  • Red: Abandoned Coral and Tattered Rose

I added some

Finally, I added some cute critters from Christmas Icons and sentiments from Holiday Express stamp set to finish off my tags!

I hope you liked these tags! Happy Crafting.

Hello everyone! Isha here with a CAS mixed media card featuring our Lacy Snowflakes. I really like the size and the intricate design of these dies. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Lacy Snowflake Card by Isha Gupta (featuring Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies)

To start, I die-cut the slimline stitched rectangle from the Slimline Scalloped Frame dies. I then applied some crackle paste to it and let it dry. Once dry, we will get fine cracks, it's tough to capture them in the photo but it really looks pretty in real life.

Now I added a light watercolor using worn lipstick distress ink to this piece. Once dry, mat it with a pink cardstock. Adhere to a white card base. Flick gold paint.

I die-cut the snowflakes using pearl paper in pink and beige. Adhere these to the card by layering them as per your liking to create some movement. Add a gold floss for some more movement. Stamp the sentiment from the Holiday Express stamp, cut in stripes, sponge some ink to the edges and adhere to the card. To finish, adhere, some Crystal Clear Jewels.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a nice day!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Michelle Short

Hello there, Michelle Short here and I am delighted to be back guesting here on the Sunny Studio Blog. Today I have three projects to share with you using the latest release, combining some older products with them too. My first projects use the Poppy Fields stamps and coordinating dies. These poppies are so pretty! I love how realistic they look when they are all stamped up. I think they look great stamped in the traditional red, but for my projects, I went with pink and blue for something a little different.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Slimline Pennant Dies Poppy Fields Hello Word Die Build-A-Tag Dies Card Tag by Michelle Short

I started off the card by stamping the Poppy Fields poppies and leaves using four shades of pink ink for the poppies and two shades of green for the leaves. I used black and greys for the middles. They were die cut out using the coordinating dies and then set aside while I worked on my background. I took one of the Slimline Pennants dies and die cut it from Subtle Grey Tones paper. It was cut down and adhered to an A2 white card base with thin foam tape. I then adhered the poppies and leaves on top with liquid glue.

I took the Hello Word die and die cut it three times from white cardstock with adhesive sheet on the back. They were layered up and adhered to the card. I wanted an accompanying sentiment, so I stamped the ‘happy birthday’ from the Floating By set on to black cardstock and heat embossed it in white. It was cut into a strip and added to the card with thin foam tape. To finish off the card, I added a few Iridescent Bubbles.

I thought it would be fun to create a little tag too! I stamped the poppies in four shades of blue and die cut them out. I cut a tag using the Build-A-Tag #1 die set from white cardstock and then ran it through my die cutting machine with the Woodgrain embossing folder. The poppies, stems and leaves were adhered on top, and I simply finished off with a twine bow and a few Iridescent Bubbles.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Slimline Pennant Dies Chloe Alphabet Dies Just Bee-cause Card by Michelle Short

For my final project, I wanted to use the Chloe Alphabet dies, as I fell in love with them when I used them for my last guest spot. I love the style of the letters! First, I die cut a panel of white cardstock using a Slimline Pennants die and added ink blending to it using Distress Oxide Inks. I then cut the clouds from the Balloon Rides dies and adhered them on top, cutting the excess off the sides with scissors. The panel was adhered to an A2 white card base with foam tape.

I took the Chloe Alphabet dies and die cut the letters from black cardstock three times for each letter so that I could stack them up for some dimension. They were adhered to the card with liquid glue. I then stamped the bees and hearts from the Just Bee-Cause with black ink on to white cardstock. They were coloured with Copic Markers and die cut out with the coordinating dies. I adhered the bees with foam tape and the hearts with liquid glue. To finish off, I added Crystal Glaze to the hearts for some shine.

Thank you so much to Mendi and her team for having me back guest designing, it is always a pleasure! And thank you for stopping by, have a great day!

Cupcake Shape & Gift Card Pocket Dies Project with Leanne

Hello crafty friends, Leanne here! I have a super fun project to share with you all today. It's a no sew cupcake plushie that doubles as a gift card holder. I have used the Cupcake Shapes dies to create this cute cupcake plushie. I have always found that any metal die that can cut card stock, can cut felt. Any kind of felt will work for this project. This project is also an excellent opportunity to use up any felt scraps you might have.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Cupcake Shape Dies Gift Card Pocket Dies Build-A-Tag Dies Candy Shoppe Felt Cupcake Plushie by Leanne West

Besides felt, you'll also need some type of adhesive.  I used an iron on adhesive called Heat'n'Bond. It's as simple to use as it sounds. Heat'n'Bond is a double sided adhesive. To start, simply iron on the adhesive to the back side of the felt.  After applying the Heat'n'Bond to the back of all my felt scraps, I then started die cutting the cupcake pieces. The metal dies easily cut through the felt even with the adhesive on the the back. It's important to note, you won't need to apply the Heat'n'Bond to the back side of the large solid cupcake shapes (you'll need a front and a back). These pieces will just require adhesive around the outer edge when it's time to stuff the cupcake.

To assemble, I placed all the parts of the cupcake (frosting, sprinkles, cake, wrapper, and heart) onto one of the solid cupcake shapes. Since all the separate cupcake pieces had Heat'n'Bond on the back, I simply ironed them in place. There's one last step before stuffing the cupcake if you want to make this into a gift card holder. You can add a pocket to the back piece. I used the Gift Card Pocket Die to create a felt pocket. Again I used the Heat'n'Bond. I used the iron on adhesive to apply the words "for you" onto the pocket. Then I just used little strips of Heat'n'Bond to adhere the pocket flaps down onto the back cupcake piece. As long as you keep the center free of adhesive, you'll have a functional little pocket to slide a gift card into.

Once I had the front and back pieces complete, I adhered the edges together and stuffed with poly fiber fill. I used my hot glue gun to apply a thin line of adhesive all along the outer edges.  At the top of the cupcake, I added a ribbon hanger while gluing. I left a small opening at the bottom to add the stuffing. After stuffing, I glued the opening shut. To customize the cupcake for any occasion, you can add a paper tag. I made a birthday tag to add to mine. I used Build-a-Tag 2 dies to make a cute little scalloped edge tag. The sentimenFelt stamps come from the Candy Shoppe stamp set.  

I hope this project gives you lots of inspiration for making your own felt plushies using the Cupcake Shapes dies. As you can see from the photos, the felt plushie is much more dimensional than the card stock version. It will definitely add some extra sweetness to the recipient's special day.
