Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Leanne West

Hello Sunny Studio Fans! Leanne here and I'm happy to be guesting again on the blog. Let's talk about stamp set mash ups. It's my favorite way to get more out of my stamps. Especially when I can use different sets together that at first glance may not be an obvious mix. 

I have two cards to share today which demonstrate how well Sunny Studio stamps can mash up in unexpected ways.  

For my Halloween card I wanted to use a princess image from Enchanted and transform her into a witch. With the witch hat and caldron from Bewitching, I was able to accomplish just that.  

Copics used: V12, V15, V17, E00, E21, R00, E41, E43, YG11, FYG2, YR21, YR12, YR16, N2, N4, N6

I've also added in some pumpkins from Fall Friends. The background is an ink blend mix of Carved Pumpkin, Ripe Persimmon, and Dusty Concord Distress Oxides. I've framed up the scene with the Fancy Frames Squares. 

For my second card, I created an apple orchard scene combining two really great sets - Fall Friends and Happy Harvest. I just love the tree from Happy Harvest. It fits so nicely on this vertical mini slimline format. 

Copics used: R00, R22, R27, E41, E42, E43, E44, E33, E35, Y32, Y26, G11, G17, B95, B97, N2, N4, N6, W2, W4, W6

And who doesn't love cute critters peeking out from behind things. Fall Friends has four to chose from and they could be used for more than just fall themes. I've made this card into a friendship card which can be sent any time of the year.

Bewitching Cards with Isha and Kavya

Hello everyone, Isha here! Since Autumn is officially here, I decided to create a fun autumn theme card featuring our Bewitching Stamps and dies. As always I love to combine various products to create a scene.

I started by die-cutting a window to the white front panel using the biggest of the Stitched Semi-Circle die. Now, I took a white card base and sponged salvaged patina and spiced marmalade distress inks to it. Now I used a brick stencil from my stash and added some brick texture using the same inks. Die-cut the door, window panels and the base panel using the Gingerbread House dies. I colored all the pieces using Copic markers. Adhere yellow cardstock behind the window panel and add glossy accent for the glass effect.

Adhere the white piece onto the brick card base. Adhere the door and the window. Stamp all the images and color them using Copics. Die-cut using the coordinating dies.

Cat with hat and cauldron: Bewitching stamp and Dies
Boy: Fall Kiddos stamp and Dies
Big leaves and sentiment: Crisp Autumn stamp and Dies
Candy Corn: Candy Shoppe stamp and Dies
Berries, Pumpkins and small Ahorn leaves: Bountiful Autumn stamp and Dies

Stamp the sentiment and assemble the scene. To finish, I added some clear glitter to the green potion and glossy accents to berries and candy corns.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a nice day.

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with another fun card using the new Bewitching stamp set. When I first saw the stamp set, it immediately reminded me of Professor Minerva McGonagall from Harry Potter! She transfigures into tabby cat! I used a bunch of sets from the SSS to create a fun Harry Potter themed card! 

I first started off by creating a background by ink blending the sky using shades of blue and mint and added a green landscape using Slimline Nature Border die and different shades of green cardstock. I ink blended the edges of the green cardstock to make a bit more realistic :) I then stamped and colored images from the following stamp sets using Copic markers:

• Hogwarts: Enchanted stamp
• Harry Potter: Modified a knit in armor from Enchanted stamp
• Professor McGonagall and potion pot: Bewitching stamp
• Books: Grad Cat stamp
• Trees: Balloon Ride stamp set
• Hedwig: Happy Owlidays stamp set

I finally heat embossed a sentiment from Garden Fairy stamp set to finish off the card! 

That’s it folks! I hope this card inspires you :) Happy Crafting.

Feeling Froggy Cards by Franci and Julia

Hi there and happy Wednesday! It's Franci here with you today, with a magical card. Oh, this little cutie is soo adorable! 

First of all I created my card base out of white cardstock and inked my sky on the front using blue Distress inks. I stamped, colored with Copics and die cut all the images and then I glued them down with foam adhesive.

I combined these sets here: Feeling Froggy + coordinated dies and Enchanted set + coordinated dies.

I stamped my sentiment at the bottom, added a little heart coated in Glossy Accents and drew little stars and dots on the night sky with a silver pen to make it magical.

I hope you like this card as much as I do and thanks a lot for stopping by! Have a lovely day.

Hey crafty friends! It’s Julia here with a fun birthday card! I just can't get enough of the cute froggy - so this time he is bringing balloons, flowers and gifts to the party!!

I started by stamping out my images from the Feeling Froggy, Country Scenes, as well as from Love Monkey (flowers), Floating By (balloons and bowtie), Alpaca Holiday (gift stack), North Pole (little gift), Balloon Rides (clouds). and Spring Scenes. I colored all the images with Copic Markers.

I ink blended the sky and pond onto a piece of bristol smooth cardstock. I also stamped a few "waves" on the pond from the My Otter Half stamp set. For my sentiment I stamped the word "hoppy" from Feeling Froggy, "birthday" from Garden Fairy and "wishes" from Eggs to Dye For and then heat embossed it in white onto black cardstock. 

Then, I added all my cute images to the card using liquid glue and foam squares. I wanted to add a white frame, so I die cut the Comic Strip Everyday dies and just snipped off the inside pieces. To finish my card, I added lots of shimmer pen, white gel pen highlights and Stardust Stickles. I really hope you like it!

Inks used: Scattered Straw, Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide Copic Markers used: 0; E50, E51, E53, E55, E57, E59; YG000, YG01, YG03, G000, G02, G17, G28; B21, B23, B26, B28; R81, R83, R85, RV02, RV06; V000, V01, V04, V09; Y000, Y11, Y13; Y15.
