Designer's Choice: Captivating Cameliias Card with Isha

Hello everyone! Isha here with a floral card as this week is designer's choice as the theme. I decided to use various products and create this card.

To start, I took a white cardbase. Sponged some picked raspberry and wilted violet distress ink towards the right. I then die-cut a piece of white card with Frilly Frame Herringbone die. I then die-cut another piece using Fancy Frames Rectangle die and adhere the inside frame to the white herringbone piece. Adhere this to the cardbase using 3d foam.

Stamp the sentiment from the Big Bold Greetings, die-cut using the coordinating dies. Stamp the layering florals using the Captivating Camellias stamp set and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Adhere to the card. Die-cut the leaves from white card using the Spring Greenery dies. Sponge them with cracked pistachio and peacock feathers distress inks. Adhere to the card. To finish, I stamped and embossed butterflies from the Watering Can stamps onto vellum using white embossing powder, die-cut using the coordinating dies and adhere to the card.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Spring Garden Die Focused Card with Rachel

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here with a clean and simple card featuring the beautiful Spring Garden Dies. I kept my card super simple by using a single watering can with flowers as my focus. 

To start my card, I first created my A2 sized card base from a piece of white card stock. I then layered it with a 4" x 5.25" piece of blue floral patterned paper from the Spring Fling Paper Pad. Next, I stamped my large sentiment from the Big Bunny Stamp Set with some Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

To create my focal point, I then added a scalloped circle to the top center portion of my card that I had die cut from a piece of white card stock using the second largest of the Fancy Frames Circle Dies. Lastly, I die cut the pieces for my watering can and added some dimension to the blue base of the can with some Pinkfresh Storm Ink. 

I then used a variety of colored card stock to die cut the rest of my pieces and adhered all of it to my card base with some 3D foam adhesive squares to give my die cuts a pop of dimension. Lastly, I added some white accents using a size 10 white Gelly Roll pen.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! I hope you enjoyed my card today! If you want more card making inspiration, feel free to check out my Instagram feed.

Truckloads of Love Holiday Card with Tammy

Hi there! Tammy here, sharing a card featuring the adorable set, Truckloads of Love. I love how versatile this set is, allowing you to create for all seasons! I chose to create a Christmas-themed card since they are my favorite to make!

To begin, I stamped the images from Truckloads of Love, colored with Copic markers, and die cut with the Truckloads of Love Dies. Next, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock to an A2 size and ink-blended it with Broken China and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks. I then splattered some white acrylic paint, thinned with water, onto the background to create a snowy feel. I then white heat embossed the "Season's Greetings" sentiment from the Festive Greetings Stamps.

Next, I die-cut some snowy hills using the Slimline Nature Borders Dies, cutting them to size, inking the tops with Tumbled Glass ink, and attaching them to the bottom of my card. I die-cut some trees from white cardstock using the Rustic Winter Dies, tucking them under the snowy borders. I added a white scalloped frame die cut using the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies, attaching it with foam tape for dimension. I then white heat embossed the sentiment from Truckloads of Love onto a dark gray sentiment strip and added some white Lacy Snowflakes to complete my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs,

Tammy

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Marie Marco

Hello Crafty Friends!! It's Marie back on the blog with two birthday cards featuring the lovely Special Day Stamp. This stamp set features two super adorable layered cake images and number candles perfect for celebrating all the special occasions from birthdays to weddings and everything in between! 

My first card features the gorgeous two tiered floral cake from the set. This design made me want to create a vintage inspired color palette for a friend's 40th birthday. To create this card, I first stamped my images onto watercolor paper using Antique Linen Distress Ink. All my images were colored using Faber- Castell Watercolor pencils. I cut out the images using the corresponding Special Day Dies. To construct my card front, I first die cut an A2 sized base panel from 110 lb Neenah Solar White cardstock paper. I also, cut an A2 sized polka dot pink pattern paper panel which I adhered to the base panel. For a simple elegant touch, I created a gold frame with the Fancy Frames Rectangle Die. 

I really wanted to keep my pattern paper visible while keeping the birthday cake the focal point so I cut out a scalloped panel from vellum paper using the Mini Mat & Tag 1 Dies. Taking my cake image, I used double sided tape to adhere it to the vellum paper. Before adhering the vellum to the pattern paper, I apply double sided tape adhesive to the back of the vellum hidden behind the cake so no tape adhesive is visible on the translucent vellum. To finish off this card, I applied foam strips to the back of the number candles to create some dimension and adhered it to the top of the cake. Finally, I used some Nuvo Crystal Drops on the decorative dots of the cake to create dimension. 

My second card features both the Special Day Stamp and the Birthday Cat Stamp. The Birthday Cat Stamp set is too cute for words! The adorable cats in this set inspired me to create a fun a playful pop up box card purrfect for my cat loving friend. To start off, I cut out all my box card elements from Bristol Smooth Cardstock and inked all the edges using Kitsch Flamingo Distress Ink. For all the decorative panels and inside panels, I used the double sided Sunny Studio Dots & Stripes Pastels Paper in the beautiful shade of pink. 

After assembling the box card, I stamped all my images onto watercolor paper and colored them with Faber-Castell Watercolor pencils. I also used party banner images from the Panda Party Stamp. I used the corresponding Birthday Cat Dies, Special Day Dies, as well as the banner dies from Panda Party Dies to cut all my images. I adhered the birthday cake and cats using a strip of cardstock on the backs of all my images so they remain sturdy inside the box. Finally, I stamped my sentiment using VersaFine Onyx Black Ink to the pattern paper and adhered it to the front of the card. I absolutely love how cute this box card turned out that I'm tempted to keep it for myself! 

These two cards were super fun and simple to create! Thank you for stopping by and joining me today! Until next time, Happy Crafting friends!!!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Birthday Cards with Rachel Alvarado

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here from RachelAlvaradoDesigns.com. I am happy to be back on the Sunny Studio Blog with some projects featuring items from the newest release.

For my first project, I created a slimline birthday card featuring the adorable Birthday Cats Stamp Set. To start my card, I first stamped all of my images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I then used the Birthday Cats Die Set to cut them out. I set my images aside and die cut some white and teal pieces of card stock with the Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies to create my slimline card base.

Next, I die cut three white scalloped circles using the Fancy Frame Circle Dies. Before adding them to my card base, I used a basic circle die to cut three more circles from a piece of smooth white card stock. I added some Salvaged Patina to each circular piece before then splattering it with some diluted Copic Opaque White Paint. Once dry, I then layered these ink-blended pieces with the scalloped circle sections and then adhered them to my card base with double-sided adhesive. Lastly, I heat embossed my sentiment pieces with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder and then added my images with some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape for extra dimension.

For my second project, I created a sweet, single layered birthday card featuring the new Birthday Mouse Stamp Set. I first stamped my images to a 4"x 5.25" piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and then stamped them a second time onto a piece of Gina K. Designs Masking Magic Sheets. I fussy cut my images from the masking paper and used them to cover/mask the images that I had just stamped onto my card base. 

Once covered, I then lightly blended the background with some Milled Lavender Distress Oxide Ink, removed the masking pieces, and then added some diluted white ink spatters to my ink-blended portion for some added interest. Once dry, I then colored all of my images with Copic Markers. I finished my card by stamping my sentiment and adding this piece to a standard, top-folding, A2 sized card base.

Copic Colors Used:

• Mouse: W00, W1, W3, W5
• Purples: V01, V04, V15, V09
• Indigo: V20, V22, V25, V28
• Butterfly: B60, B63

I hope you enjoyed my card today! Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! If you liked this card and want some more crafty inspiration, please feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM feed! Wishing you all a lovely day!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Rachel Alvarado

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel from RachelAlvaradoDesigns.com, and I'm excited to share two projects with you today using products from the latest Sunny Studio Stamps release. For my first project, I created an A6 sized box card that showcases the super cute Clucky Chicken Stamp Set. I paired this set with some images from the Seasonal Trees Stamp Set to create a fun 3D scene. 

When folded, my card measures at 4.5" x 6.25" and fits easily into a standard A6 (or even a 5x7) envelope for mailing. All of my images were stamped onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock, colored with Copic Markers, and cut out with both the Clucky Chicken and Seasonal Trees Die Sets.

Copic Colors Used:

• Reds: R35, R59, R89
• White: 0, C00, C1, C3
• Chicks/Hay: Y19, Y21, E34
• Tree: YG23, YG25, YG67
• Birdhouse: B12, B16, B18

I also added a cute little white picket fence around the perimeter using the Picket Fence Border Die Set. For my grass, I used both the grass die from the Picket Fence Die Set as well as the grass die from the Slimline Nature Border Dies along with some green card stock. For my background sky, I trimmed a piece of the sky/cloud patterned paper that comes in the new Spring Fever Paper Pad.

For my second project, I made a simple card using the adorable new Build-A-Birdhouse Die Set. I layered my card with some pink patterned paper from the same paper pad that I had used above. After stamping my sentiment from the A Bird's Life Stamp Set, I then die cut a basic circle and blended it with some Picked Raspberry, Worn Lipstick, and Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Inks. I added another piece of a white picket fence to this circular piece with some liquid adhesive and then trimmed off the edges of the fence so that it was flush with the edge of the circle. I then added this piece to the front of my card and framed it with some gorgeous white scalloped circles that I had die cut using the Fancy Frames Circles Die Set.

Lastly, I added my birds and bird house with some 3D Foam adhesive tape for some extra dimension. I love how sweet these birds are and how simple this set is to use.

I hope you enjoyed my cards today! Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! If you liked these cards and want some more crafty inspiration, please feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM feed! Wishing you all a lovely day!
