Guest Designer Spotlight: Quill Cuties Cards with Aiysha Chander

Hello everyone! I'm Aiysha, so excited to be guest designing for Sunny Studio Stamps today, featuring two cards created with the Quill Cuties stamp set. This set is full of charm and personality, making it perfect for cheerful greetings and just-because cards. I created two designs with very different moods to show how easily these sweet hedgehogs adapt to any style.

For the first card, I created a soft, Valentine-inspired look. The Quill Cuties were stamped with memento black ink and colored in browns with Copic markers. I then layered the images on an ink-blended background to match the pink Valentine theme.

Two Quill Cuties take center stage, colored in cozy browns and soft pinks with a small pop of aqua for contrast. The sentiment was heat embossed in white, and the images were cut using coordinating Quill Cuties dies.

A scalloped frame from the Icing Rectangle Frames set gently anchors the design, while a few scattered hearts and a light splatter of white and gold add a whimsical finish.

The second card leans into a cozy, rustic feel. I used the Sunny Studio Woodgrain Embossing Folder on a kraft cardstock to create a warm textured base. Stamped several Quill Cuties on kraft cardstock to complement the kraft tones. They were then colored in earthy tones and arranged in a cheerful cluster to create a little scene.

To finish, I added the white heat embossed the sentiment on a contrasting brown strip with a red accent, and framed the design using a scalloped frame from the Icing Rectangle Frame set, finally scatter hearts to bring everything together.

For my third card, the adorable cutie soaking in a bathtub was too hard to resist, and it felt perfect for a fun bubble-bath–themed shaker card.

I stamped and colored these Cuties with Copic-friendly ink and created a soft pastel ink-blended background and built it up by die-cutting multiple layers using Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies to add depth. The shaker is filled with clear and blue sequins, chosen to mimic bubbly bath foam floating around the scene.

The sentiment "Quill you be mine?" adds a sweet finishing touch, making this card ideal for a love-themed occasion. Cute, playful, and full of movement—this little shaker card was such a joy to create.

Thank you so much for having me today! I hope these cards inspire you to create and send a few hedge hugs of your own.

Vintage Valentine Card with Tina M

Hi there! It’s Tina M here with you today. Pink is my favorite color and I’m so excited to share a sweet pink card I created using the Vintage Valentine stamps!

My card base is A2 size and I started off by trimming a piece of pink polka dot paper from the Polka-dot Parade paper pack (the larger size polka dots) to 5,5 x 4,25 inches and then I adhered it to the card base using double sided tape. Next, I trimmed two pieces of card stock, a black piece to 5,1/8 x 3,7/8 inches and a pink piece to 5 x 3,3/4 inches.

I then placed the pink panel inside the Woodgrain embossing folder, applied darker pink ink inside the folder on the opposite side of the panel, closed the embossing folder and ran it through my die cutting machine to create a nice tone on tone pink woodgrain texture.
I adhered the pink woodgrain panel to the black panel for a nice thin black frame using double sided tape and adhered them to the card base.

Next, I stamped four of the cute envelope from the stamp set on pink polka dot paper (the smaller size polka dots). I then stamped four of the note cards, six hearts, and the typewriter on alcohol ink friendly card stock using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below. I then die cut the images using the coordinating Vintage Valentine dies. I cut an extra piece of the typewriter.

Copic colors used:
Typewriter: RV52/55, V000, C5/3
Hearts: RV52/55

Time to stamp the greetings! I decided to go with xoxo on the little note cards, leaving space for a heart at the top on each of them. For the paper in the typewriter I chose You make my heart smile! Leaving space for two hearts at the top. I tucked the note cards in the envelopes, keeping them in place with a little glue. Lastly, I glued the hearts to the note cards and to the paper in the typewriter!

Remember I cut an extra piece of the typewriter? I glued it together with the stamped and colored piece to make it sturdier. I added foam dots to the back of the envelopes and the typewriter for dimension and adhered them to the woodgrain panel!

Thank you for stopping by! Wishing you all a happy and colorful day!

Baked With Love Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and I confess, I love cookies! That is why I was excited to make a card with the sweet Baked With Love stamp and die set. Now this set offers plenty of options for the cutest designs. Since I also adore critters, I definitely wanted to bring in an image from the Foxy Friends set.

After creating a white rectangle card base, I cut a panel from a pink paper (Polka-Dot Parade) with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes die. I have used these outer dies many times and I highly recommend having these staples in your stash. Next, I glued the panel to the base with liquid glue. For my scene, I cut a white Stitched Arch and dry embossed the piece with the Quilted Hearts folder. I also glued a strip of pink card stock near the bottom so I could add my scene later on.

I stamped all the cookies from the Baked With Love stamp and the rolling pin. As mentioned before, I also selected a cute fox (Foxy Friends set). I enjoyed coloring all these images in fun colors with my Copics and added some white sprinkles with my gel pen.

The hardest part of this project was figuring out the design, I had one fox and a whole lot of cookies! First, I decided that the fox would be sitting on the rolling pin. Next, I played around with stacking the cookies until I was happy with the lay-out.

This card needed a fun sentiment so I spelled out the word ‘Baked’ with the letters of the Sydney Alphabet. I love how well they match with the arched shape. To create that chipboard effect, I cut each letter three times and stacked them with liquid glue.

For the sub sentiment I found the perfect one in the Baking Spirits Bright set. Yes, that is a Christmas set, but I encourage you to keep using these stamps all year round where possible! I stamped the sentence on a white banner with Versafine Onyx Black ink and added foam tape to mount it to the card. A few Aquamarine Jewels were placed in the corners for some extra glam. 

I can’t wait to see all the yummy projects you will make with this sweet set!! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
