Puppy Love Cards with Cathy and Bobbi

Hey friends! Cathy here today sharing a card featuring the adorable new Puppy Love Stamps that will be available in the upcoming new release!

I started this card by cutting 2 strips of patterned paper from the Subtle Grey Tones Paper and adhering a strip to the top and bottom of an A2 card base. The top strip is 1/2" x 5 1/2" and the bottom strip is 1” x 5 1/2". (This saves on paper since I have a wide cardstock piece on the card front)

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies and cut the piece to 5 1/2” long. I inked it with Spun Sugar and Saltwater Taffy Distress inks and splattered a little watered down white acrylic paint with a paintbrush. I matted this piece on gray cardstock and adhered it to the card front approximately 3/8” from the top edge of the card and slightly overlapping the paper pieces.

I die-cut white glitter cardstock using a Heartstrings Border Die and adhered it to the bottom of the inked cardstock piece. I stamped a sentiment from the Lovey Dovey Stamps in gray ink, die-cut it using the coordinating dies and adhered it to the center of the inked cardstock.

I stamped the images from the Puppy Love Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. To finish, I die-cut hearts using the Stitched Heart 2 Dies from white cardstock, inked them with Tattered Rose Distress ink and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder for a little shine.

Hello Sunny friends, Bobbi here! I hope you’re having a “pawsome” day because today I’m sharing the new Sunny Studio Stamps  set called, Puppy Love stamp set and coordinating dies. This little mighty set offers puppy cuteness and sweet hearts. I used this set to make a 5″ X 7″ card and coordinating smaller, note card.

To create the card, I used one of my favorite Sunny dies called, Bursting Hearts die. I cut it out of black cardstock and since my card is an A7 size, I ran it horizontally across the top of the card. I little strip of gold cardstock finishes the bottom edge.

I stamped the two dogs from the Puppy Love set and colored them in black and gray. I colored the heart in pink, I attached the pup in the middle with some foam tabs to make him stand out and stamped the phrase from the same set in the white space below.

I cut out some hearts from pink cardstock and added them back into the Bursting hearts design to create a focal point on the puppy in the middle. I let the last hearts fall off the edge of the front panel for interest.

For the coordinating smaller note card, I used a white card base and attached a mini mat from the Mini Mat 2 and Tag dies to the front. I added faux black stitching around the edge, the other puppy in the middle and some shadowing below him. I used Luxe Glitter cardstock to fill the heart and stamped smaller hearts colored in pink around the puppy.

Squirrel Friends Cards with Cathy and Bobbi

Hey friends! Cathy here today with a Squirrel Friends focused card featuring one of my favorite sweet little squirrels from this stamp set.

Since I wanted this adorable little friend to take center stage, I went with a more abstract design on this card. First, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the Bursting Hearts Die and adhered it to a peach A2 card base. I then die-cut a piece of dark brown cardstock using one of the Stitched Arch Dies and adhered it to the center of the card front about 1/2" from the top edge. I cut a brown paper from the Critter Country Paper  2” x 4 1/4" and adhered it to the bottom of the card front.

Next, I die-cut a tag from light gray cardstock using the Mini Mat & Tag 2 Dies and adhered it to the Stitched Arch die-cut. I love how this tag fits perfectly inside the arch for a matted look. (I did not apply adhesive along the scalloped edge in order to tuck the leaves underneath) I die-cut the leaves from dark brown cardstock and a copper metallic cardstock using the Autumn Greenery Dies and adhered them on the paper tucking them slightly under the scalloped edge of the tag.

I stamped the squirrel on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, masked the image and stamped the tree stump. I also stamped 4 individual acorns. After coloring the images with Copics, I fussy cut out all of them. Rather than stamping and masking the acorns inside the tree stump, I found it easier to cut a small slit along the bottom of the hole in the stump using a craft knife and then tucked the acorns inside. I adhered the images to the gray tag making sure to cover the small hole at the top of the tag that the die cuts by placing the image so that the squirrel’s tail covered it up. To finish, I die-cut a piece of dark brown cardstock using a banner die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies, heat embossed the sentiment and adhered it along the bottom of the tag above the scalloped edge.

Hello Sunny friends! It’s Bobbi here with a sweet fall card featuring the new Squirrel Friends stamp set and coordinating dies. This set is for all you fun and nutty crafters that love these big-tail cuties! I made this 5″ X 7″ card quickly by using one of the scene papers from the Critter Country 6″ X 6″ paper pad.

To make this card, I cut the pretty scene paper down to 5″ wide X 6″ tall and attached it to an A7 card base made from white cardstock. To cover the bottom of the front panel, I added a 1″ strip of multi-color striped, coordinating paper from the same pack. I stamped and heat embossed in white, the “nut-thing” phrase from the stamp set. 

I stamped, die-cut and colored the tree trunk, two squirrels, four acorns, and some leaves and added them to the scene setting. I made the squirrels into red squirrels using Copic Markers in YR27, Yr24, YR21, E57, E55 and E44. For the trunk, I stamped and cut out two (one trunk with a hole) and attached them together with foam tabs, leaving room to tuck in the sweet squirrel with the acorn in hand. I added the second squirrel to the tall tree with another acorn. A few black specks in the air and some nuts and leaves around the tree trunk finish this card.

Autumn Tree Cards with Bobbi and Cathy

They say money doesn’t grow on trees, but how about love? If you love apples, you’ll love the new Autumn Tree Dies. You can fill this tree with various leaves to make different trees and even bright red-filled apple trees. It’s Bobbi here with an apple tree card made with love using the new dies by Sunny Studio. 

I created this 5″ X 7″ card using the Autumn Trees dies and pattern papers from the Sweater Weather paper pack. I used two teal pattern papers for the background. I added the tree and attached the leaves and apples. I kept the apples on the lower branches to create “low hanging fruit.” Those are so much easier to pick later.  

I used the following colors to color the images:
Tree trunk/branches: E49, E59, E57, E55

Apples and heart: R29, R17, R14, YG00
Leaves: YG67, YG17, YG03, YG00

Did you notice the cute heart in the middle of the trunk? I used a die cut from the Bursting Hearts Die. I colored it to match the apples. I also added a little bling to the heart and the tree using the Red Zircon Jewels.

Lastly, I added a band of a Sweater Weather pattern paper. I enhanced the strip by adding white stitches using my Gelly Roll white gel pen and stamped the "Thinking of You" phrase from the Watering Can set between the stitching lines. This is a very easy card to make, but be prepared to add lots of leaves! It’s addicting.

Hey friends! Cathy here today and it looks like love is in the trees for at least one of these little squirrels!

 
To create my card, I started by die-cutting a piece of Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock using a Stitched Rectangle die. I lightly inked the sky with Tumbled Glass Distress ink on the top half of the piece and Antique Linen on the bottom half. I added a die-cut cloud using the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die. Setting this piece aside, I die-cut another piece of Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock with the Stitched Rectangle die and stamped the fence portion of a Fall Scenes stamp 1 1/2" from the bottom. I colored the stamped image with Copics, inked the grass below with Shabby Shutters and Crushed Olive Distress inks and heat embossed the sentiment. I then used the coordinating dies to the Fall Scenes stamps to die-cut along the fence line and adhered this piece to the bottom of the inked sky cardstock piece.

 
Next, I die-cut 2 trees and leaves using the Autumn Tree Dies and colored them with Copics. I adhered one to each side of the cardstock piece overlapping the edges and used precision tip scissors to cut carefully along the edges of the cardstock. I stamped and colored the 2 adorable little squirrels and acorns from the Squirrel Friends stamps with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating dies.

 

For the hearts above my amorous little squirrel, I inked a piece of white cardstock with Saltwater Taffy Distress ink and die-cut the piece using the Bursting Hearts die. This gave me a bunch of different sized hearts that I heat embossed with clear embossing powder for a little shine. I adhered the panel to a light gray A2 card front.

Designer's Choice Cards with Catherine and Bobbi

Hello Friends! Catherine here, sharing my last card for the Summer Term. As I have recently moved countries, I will be spending time to settle in. It has been a great pleasure to be part of the amazing Design Team at Sunny Studio Stamps!

For my last card, I wanted to keep summer memories alive so I created a “Happy Summer” card featuring our Wonky Windows Dies for the airplane, Ocean View border for the summer scene along with a few friends for the airplane passengers.

To start, I die cut white card stock sized 4.2” x 5.5” with Wonky Windows Dies, I then ink blended some stripes across the windows with red and blue ink.  I carefully placed a cloud stencil made with Fluffy Cloud Border above and below the windows and ink blended with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I covered the window area and lightly splattered a small amount of the ink with water for texture. I flipped the card over and adhered a strip of acetate for the windows.

I used the Fluffy Cloud Border and die cut a cloud border out of white cardstock. I lightly inked the cloud border with the same ink and splattered a small amount of ink with water. I then stamped the sentiment from Beach Babies with Black Ink in the middle.

I stamped the border from Ocean View and die cut with the coordinating die, Ocean View Dies. I colored the border with Copic Markers and added seashells from the same set and a starfish from Fintastic Friends.

For the cabin, I ink blended cardstock 4.25” x 5.5” with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide. For the airplane seats, I used the hotdog die from Fast Food Dies. I added a few friends from Kiddie Pool and Beach Buddies and that’s it!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! For more details and inspiration, please visit by my blog Craft-Cat! Have a wonderful day!

Life flies. Days become years and years become decades. Next thing you know, you’ve been married 50 years!  I wanted to share this idea in this “flippin” fun card. It’s Bobbi here with a card for a newly wed couple or a pair celebrating an anniversary. 

This card will work for either. I’m using the following Sunny Studio products:

Wedded Bliss stamp set and coordinating dies

Passionate Penguins stamp set and coordinating dies

Heart Bouquet stamp set and coordinating dies

Inside Greetings Sentiments Congrats

Scalloped Oval Mat dies

Bursting Hearts Die

To create this 5″ X 7″ card, I cut the following pieces from white cardstock. I used a lighter, 80lb cardstock for the pages that flip, to keep it less bulky when stacked. The card base (A7-sized full piece in the back) is made from 100lb cardstock for stability.

White Cardstock pieces:
3-1/4″ wide X 3-1/2″ long, scored 1/2″ from the top (80lb)
3-1/4″ wide X 4″ long, scored 1/2″ from the top (80lb)
3-1/4″ wide X 4-1/2″ long, scored 1/2″ from the top (80lb)
3-1/4″ wide X 5″ long, scored 1/2″ from the top (80lb)
5″ wide X 7″ long (100lb)

I stamped the penguin images from the Wedded Bliss stamp set (bride and groom), the Passionate Penguins stamp set (pair in the car, kissing couple, and dancing pair) and the balloons from the Heart Bouquet stamp set and colored them using the following colors: 100, c9, c7, C5, C3, C1, YR16, R14, YG41, YG45, Y06, Y19, R00, R22, R14, R29, BG15, and BG13. 

These will be featured on each page in this order:
Page one: “first kiss”
Page two: “courting years” in the convertible bug
Page three: “happy together” with the heart balloons
Page four: “wedding day” with the happy couple

I assembled the card by adding pattern paper from the Subtle Grey Tones paper pack to the base (5″ X 6″ top piece and a 5″ X 1″ bottom strip). Next, I attached the flip pages to the base. I stacked the four pages and adhered them together  above the 1/2″ score line. I used other pattern papers as backgrounds on the pages, too. The Bursting Hearts Die, cut from a red cardstock was used as the backdrop on the front page and the Scalloped Oval Mat 2 die was used on the last page as an arch for the wedding couple.

Finally, I added a wedding sentiment from the Inside Greetings Sentiments Congrats on the last page and added the “love” die cut and a 1/8″ strip in black to the bottom to finish the card.
