Party Pets Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and I am super excited to start the new year with a fun birthday card featuring the adorable kitties from the Party Pets stamp and die set.

This set also includes three cute dogs and I have already stamped them out for a future project! Can’t wait to create with them, but for today I loved coloring all these sweet cats and their party accessories with my Copic markers. I used color pencils in matching colors for a bit of shading on the images and added some highlights with a white gel pen.

After scoring a simple white card base, I dry embossed a panel from white card stock with the Moroccan Circle folder. I always love the extra dimension you get from this technique.

The past months have been busy making lots of cards, so my scrap pile of pattern paper was big! I decided to use up some bits (All Is Bright, Flirty Flowers) as backgrounds for the 6 windows I cut into the embossed panel by running the Wonky Windows die twice through the die cut machine.

Then, I simply flipped the panel to the back side and glued my paper scraps into place alternating the two patterns to cover the windows. Next, I stamped the big Happy Birthday sentiment from the Party Pets stamp, I love that it comes with a matching die! 

After adhering the window panel to my card base, I stamped two small sentiments from the same set onto the little signs two cats are holding. I played around with placement of the kitties until I was happy with the result. After adding a few Crystal clear Jewels this sweet project was ready!

I can’t wait to see all these adorable kitties and dogs featured in your projects! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Window Trio Heart Die Focused Cupcake Card with Nicky

Happy New Year everyone! This is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog and I'm sharing a card that was created using the Window Trio Hearts Portrait Die. No hearts here though! Instead, I used the die in a different way and created a sweet cupcake card. Read on for all the details.

I took an A2 white panel of cardstock and ran it through my Big Shot using the Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder. I applied this panel to my card base which was larger. Over this embossed background I attached a pink frame popped up on foam tape. I used the Fancy Frames Rectangle Die to do this.

Using the same pink cardstock from the frame plus four other pastel shades from my cardstock scraps, I die-cut the cupcake images from Window Trio Hearts Portrait Die and assembled them with glue.

I backed each cupcake with foam tape and applied them to the background in a grid pattern but tipped them playfully left and right when positioning them.

Using the same cardstock colours I took the Chloe Alphabet Die and die-cut the SWEET sentiment. Each coloured letter was backed with two white letters and I glued them all in stacks for some nice dimension. I glued these into position and then went through my Sunny stamps and found the word 'you're' and stamped that on a little sentiment strip and applied using foam tape.

To finish the card I added a tiny sparkling clear sequin to the top of each cupcake and then the project was complete and ready to mail off to someone very sweet indeed!

Thanks for stopping by the blog today and happy crafting!

Brilliant Banner 4 Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here. Today I'm sharing a 4.5 inch square card design featuring the adorable bear image from Holiday Hugs and a fun way to add a greeting over top a cable knit background.

I love a good textured background on my cards. The only catch is, you can't stamp a greeting onto these types of background. There's an easy solution for this problem ... stamp the greeting onto a die cut banner which can then be adhered anywhere on the background. Sunny Studio has four different banner styles to choose from. The one I'm using for this card is the Brilliant Banner 4 die. The curved banner design fits perfectly right over the bear. I used a Misti to stamp the words onto the banner. I did bend the stamps slightly to match the curve of the banner. 

Copic used for coloring: scarf - RV42, R22, G17, G29; bear - N0, N2, N4, N6, R00; mug - G02, G09, G17, E25, R24

Here are the other Sunny Studio supplies used to create this card:

- Stitched Square Die (I used the largest die in the set)

- Cable Knit Embossing Folder (I embossed the texture onto pink card stock, then used a white pigment ink pad and swiped the pad across the embossed panel. This technique highlights the raised part of the cable knit design.)

- Holiday Hugs Stamp Set and coordinating dies (for polar bear and mug images plus warmest winter wishes word stamps) 

- Snowflake Circle Frame Die (for snowflake embellishments die cut from white glitter card stock)

Inside Greetings Seasons Card with Nicky

Hello, this is Nicky back with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog. I have a fun new card to share with you today that features the Inside Greetings Seasons stamp set. Please read on for the details.

To create this card I first die cut the Woolen Mitten Die 3 times. Twice from a pale pink cardstock from my stash and once in white. I used the Cable Knit Embossing Folder on one pink panel to give it the dimensional knit pattern and then I came in with a little Blush Pink Ink from The Stamp Market around the edges. I backed this knitted panel with the other pink panel, glueing the two together just so that it would feel more robust because I like to build my cards sturdy.

I formed the rest of the card including the cuff and the decorative poinsettia with its holly leaves, bow and button. These elements are included with the Woolen Mitten Die. The poinsettia and leaves started as green and red cardstock of course but I came in with Lipstick Red and Forest inks by The Stamp Market to add interest.

I used the snowflake included in the Woolen Mitten Die set and die cut several white snowflakes which I adhered to the mitten and then trimmed up the edges where there was overhang.

It was now time to form the card base. I determined how the card could stand up and then scored that line for the fold on the white woolen mitten panel I had die cut earlier. I used ScorPal tape above the 'hinge' for a nice strong connection between the card's front and back.

I then opened up the card and used my chosen sentiment from Inside Greetings Seasons and stamped it using the same Lipstick Red ink described above and as you'll have noticed from the first two photos, this card happily stands up! Points were highlighted with a white gel pen and then this project was done.  

Thank you for stopping by, I'll be back next Friday with something new.

Brilliant Banner 4 Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, I am Tina and today we are making a fun holiday card using the Brilliant Banner 4 die and a happy bunch of Roly Poly Penguins! These guys are the best, I love their sweet little outfits and personalities!

My background consist of a white panel cut with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Chevron set and embossed by using the Lots of Dots embossing folder. This piece was glued to a white card base.

For the focal point I created a Stitched Semi Circle and inked this shape with Distress Oxide Picked Raspberry and a cloud stencil from my stash. The same semi-circle was made from glitter card stock, so I could add a snowbank for my penguins. I mounted this layer to the dotted background with foam tape.

After selecting three adorable cuties (Roly Poly Penguins) and some gifts, letters ,candy canes and coffee mugs, I colored all the stamped images with Copic markers in pink, gray and green shades.

Next, I cut the Brilliant Banner 4 from white card stock, and stamped a combined sentiment (Santa Claus Lane) in a green ink from my stash. I love how well this banner works with the shape of the semi-circle die!

After playing around with the placement for the penguins and their accessories, I adhered all the elements in place with glue or foam tape. Of course, I added snow with a white gel pen! And to create an even more wintery look, I sprinkled a bunch of Pure White Jewels between the pink clouds.

I had a lot of fun creating this holiday card and I hope to see your creations soon! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Brilliant Banner 3 Die Focused Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and today I am featuring the versatile Brilliant Banner 3 die, combined with one of my favorite sets Holiday Hugs. The matching die makes it easy for the cute bear to hold all kinds of stuff like this sweet mug!

I love the start with a simple white card base and add a colorful layer on top. This time, I selected a red gingham paper from Joyful Holiday and cut it with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes.

Each time I use a layered stamp set, I make sure to create a few more pieces. In this case I had some pink-red flowers in my stash from the Pretty Poinsettia set. They are the perfect backdrop for my cute bear together with some teal branches from Autumn Garland.

To make these elements stand out more, I added an extra white layer to the red gingham panel by cutting the largest of the Limitless Labels 1, and dry embossing it with the Woodgrain embossing folder. Then it was time to stamp and cut the sweet bear with his mug from Holiday Hugs. All the coloring was done with Copic markers in red, pink, and teal tones. Of course, I added some white snowflakes with a gel pen.

Next, I cut the Brilliant Banner 3 die from white card stock and stamped the combined sentiment (Holiday Express) in a red ink from my stash. After placing the poinsettias and leaves, I mounted the bear and banner with foam tape. A few Crystal Clear Jewels were scattered across the design as a finishing touch.
