Country Carnival Cards with Audrey and Vanessa

Hello friends! Audrey here with a Country Carnival card to share with you! This card is a bit different for me as I normally love bright colors and lots of white space on my cards, but I decided to make a night scene card with this stamp set. 

I started off with a piece of dark blue cardstock cut to 4" x 5.25". I used a cloud stencil from my stash and some Black Soot Distress Oxide to add some night clouds to the top 2/3 of the panel. I masked off the bottom and inked along the mask to create the ground. Then, I splattered on some gold metallic watercolor and watered down white acrylic paint to add stars to the sky. I stamped and colored the ferris wheel, some of the little bears and the ticket booth from the Country Carnival stamp set, and die cut them with the coordinating Country Carnival dies. The white background of the stamped images was too much contrast for me, so I used a dark blue Copic marker to trace around the edges of the images. 

I arranged my scene, and adhered it to the panel. I didn't want sentiment to stand out too much, so I used white pigment ink on the dark cardstock for a more muted sentiment. Then, I used the Basic Mini Shapes Dies II to add some white stars to the sky. Finally, I mounted the panel to a dark blue card base.

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a baby card using the sweet Country Carnival set.

I started with a white card base and inked the background with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink. After I had added ink droplets, I die-cut the scalloped tag from white cardstock and stamped the carousel. Now I stamped the image again onto a scrap of cardstock, colored both images with Copics, fussy-cut parts of the second image and adhered these to the tag with foam tape for more dimension. 

Today I used these sets:
Country Carnival stamps + dies
Chloe Alphabet Dies
Scalloped Tag Square Dies

I tied-on ribbon and twine and adhered the tag to the card. Now I die-cut the letters, colored them with Copics, added details with a white gel pen and spelled BABY. Finally, I added heart sequins to finish the card off.

Have a lovely weekend, everybody!

Country Carnival Cards with Isha and Kavya

Hello everyone, Isha here today with a fun, pastel theme slimline card featuring the Country Carnival stamps and dies.

I started by sponging a white panel using distress oxide inks (tattered rose, tumbled glass, kitsch flamingo). Flick some of the inks and some silver watercolor. Die-cut this panel using the clouds die from the Slimline Nature Border dies.

Stamp the images using the Country Carnival stamps, colour and die-cut using the coordinating dies. I love the cute bears from this set so much. Stamp the pennants from the Balloon Rides stamp, colour and die-cut using the dies. 

Apply spectrum noir clear sparkle pen to some of the images, add a bit of nuvo crystal glaze to the Ferris wheel cart. Adhere the images to the card.

Thank you for dropping by. Have a nice day!

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with another fun card! I love the new Country Carnival stamp set. It’s so unique and pairs well with so many previously released stamps. I know I sound like a broken record when I say that but what can I do? Mendi knocks it out of the park EVERY single time! 

For today’s card, I was inspired to create a fun Circus/Country Fair scene complete with a ringmistress! 

I started off by creating my background by ink blending Dusty Concord, Seedless Preserves and Chipped Sapphire distress Oxide inks. Then I stamped and colored a bunch of images from Country Carnival, Little Buckaroo and Savanna Safari. I used a black marker to draw some elephant regalia and finished off the card by adding a sentiment. 

I hope you liked this card! Happy Crafting!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Baby Elephant & Country Carnival Cards with Keiko Ichikawa

Hello friends! I'm Keiko from Happy Tree Studio and I'm so excited to share two cards I created with Sunny Studio Stamps summer release. I had so much fun creating!

To make the background, I inked a piece of 4" x 9" white card stock with several colors of Distress Oxide Inks and added some splatters with water and white paint. I then added die cut scallop frame with foam tapes and adhered three layers of cloud border die cuts. 

I then stamped and Copic colored the images from Baby Elephants set and die cut them out with the coordinating dies. Before adhering the images with foam tapes (except three stars in the clouds that are glued flat), I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set with blue ink. 

I pop the elephant in the middle on a die cut cloud and stamped all the little stars he is blowing using the same Oxide Inks I used for the background.

The background is A2 sized white card stock and I inked it with Distress Oxide Inks and added splatters with the same inks. All the images are from Country Carnival stamp set and I colored them with my Copic markers and die cut them with the coordinating dies. I adhered all the images with some foam tapes, but since the Ferris wheel is quite delicate (I love how this is die cut!) I decided to layer two additional die cut to the back for dimension. I also added cloud die cuts to set the scene. 

The sentiments are from the same stamp set and I white heat embossed a part of them and stamped the rest with a blue ink. To finish off the card, I repeatedly stamped the balloon images with dark and light blue inks and added white highlights with gel pen. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!

Country Carnival Cards with Marine and Marieke

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, thanks so much for stopping by! With today's card I take you to a theme park to have some fun, and eat popcorn and cotton candy! This super bright and colorful pop-up card features the adorable Country Carnival stamp set, and to complete my scene, I also picked the castle from Enchanted, and the trees from Spring Scenes.

As always, I started off by stamping all the images using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, and I colored them using my alcohol markers in kind of a traditional funfair/amusement park colors: red and yellow, with a little bit of aqua and light grey.

Next I created the pop-up card base using colored cardstock, as well as a paper from Heroic Halftones and another one from Rainbow Bright. On the front, I white heat embossed my sentiment " Wishing you lots of fun on your birthday" from Country Carnival, I added highlights and details on the images using a white gel pen, and then I attached them all inside the box using 3mm glue dots.

And that's it! Hope you like this new cute and fun card! As always, feel welcome to watch the process video for more information and details (click on the image above). See you next week!

Hello Sunny Studio friends, Marieke here. Today I hope to inspire you with an interactive light card. 

For today I started with the background, I cut two blue rectangles and adhered them temporarily onto each other. Using a sunburst stencil and Peacock Feathers Distress ink, I ink blended the rays. Splattered some white paint and let it dry.

I used the Halo lights by Pearblossom Press. To figure out where I wanted everything to go I stamped the images of the Country Carnival and cut them using the matching dies. Placed the Ferris Wheel onto the card and decided how big the circle behind it needed to be. Die cut the circle, stamped the Press Here sentiment on the small rectangle and adhered the light mechanism behind the panel. Glued the smaller rectangle on to the bigger rectangle using foam tape. Adhered the background onto a white top fold basecard.

Colored up all the images using my Copic markers and added some white gel pen details to the bears. 

Used Copic Colors:
Bears - E57, E55, E53, E51, E50 / R22
Red - R59, R29, R27, R24
Yellow - Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11
Teal - BG15, BG13, BG11
Orange - YR09, YR04, YR02
White - C5,C3,C1, 0
Black - N8, N6, N4
Blue - B24

Heat set the sentiment on some yellow cardstock and cut it into a banner. Heat set the other sentiment on some black cardstock and cut it using my scissors. Glued everything on the card using foam tape.

Country Carnival Cards with Anja

Hi everyone, Anja here with you today and I'm excited to be guest designing with the latest Sunny Studio Summer Release. I'm sharing two cards made with the Country Carnival Stamps.

On my first card, I created a fun carnival scene using the carousel, ticket booth, popcorn stand, balloons and bear images.

I started off with ink blending the background. To create a cotton candy colored sky, I used the Distress Oxide Inks Salvaged Patina, Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar. The ground was blended with Hickory Smoke ink. I die cut it with the stitched rectangle die from the Frilly Frames Retro Petals set. I stamped the sentiment in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and adhered the background to the white A2 card base.

Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I cut them out with the coordinating dies and adhered everything with liquid glue.

For my second card, I used the awesome ferris wheel and combined it with a couple of other images.

This time I created a portrait A2 card base from white cardstock and blended on some Salvaged Patina and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink in the background. For the two grass hills, I used Mowed Lawn and Shabby Shutters and die cut them with the Slimline Nature Border Dies.

I picked the girl and boy from the Spring Showers set as well as the small trees included in the Balloon Rides set. The images were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and I colored them with Copic Markers. I cut everything out with the coordinating dies.

I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink onto a black cardstock strip and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I also added the word 'FUN' which I die cut from colored and white cardstock using the Chloe Alphabet Dies. Finally, I assembled the scene by adhering the die cuts, sentiment and images.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you have an amazing day!
