Passionate Penguins Valentine's Day Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I am so excited to share a sweet Valentine's Day card featuring these adorable images from the Passionate Penguins set. 

I stamped the images from the Passionate Penguins Stamp on a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Passionate Penguins Dies to die cut them out. I also used the Stitched Heart 2 Dies to die cut 3 hearts out of the same Neenah Solar White cardstock. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T4/5/7, Y38 YR04, W00/0/1, R000/20
Hearts: R14/24
Umbrella: R14/24/29/39, C1/3
Car: R14/24/29/39, C1, C1/3, Y11, W5, W7
Pink: RV10/21/13/14

For the background, I took a piece of white cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and die cut three windows into it using circle the second, third and fourth smallest dies from the Stitched Circle Large Dies. I used the Slimline Nature Borders Dies to die cut a piece of clear acetate to make my own cloud stencil. Next, with the windowed panel as a guide, I used my homemade cloud stencil, the Forest Trees Stencils and Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink to ink blend subtle backgrounds onto a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock in the location of those windows. 

For the sentiment, I die cut a banner using one of the banner dies from the Stitched Rectangles Dies out of red cardstock. I stamped the "Happy Valentine's Day" sentiment from the Foxy Friends Stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto the red banner and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. 

I adhered the two panels to each other using foam tape. I adhered the sentiment banner and colored images to the front of the card with foam tape for additional dimension and interest. The card front was adhered to an A2 white card base (4.25" x 5.5"). 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card. For more info and ideas, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Feeling Frosty & Snowman Kisses Winter Holiday Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi popping in to share some winter-themed holiday cards featuring our Feeling Frosty Stamps and Snowman Kisses Stamps. If you are scrambling to finish up your holiday cards but are worried you won't get them done before Christmas, snowman cards work great all winter long.

My first card showcases three of the six snowmen from the Feeling Frosty Stamps. I paired them with the stylized tree from the set, colored with Copic Markers in frosty blue tones and topped with Stickles Stardust Glitter. For the backdrop behind them, I inked in two of the three layers of the Forest Trees Stencils using Tumbled Glass & Salty Ocean Distress inks. Lastly, I rounded the bottom two corners of my card using a corner rounder. This card was very easy to color and came together quite quickly, especially when using my heat gun to speed up the Stickles drying time.

For my second card, I paired the snowmen from both the Feeling Frosty Stamps and Snowman Kisses Stamps to form a rainbow slimline card by coloring each snowman's snowy gear in monochromatic colors. For the base of my 9" wide x 4" high card, I started by inking the background using a light touch of Salty Ocean Distress ink. I then layered on a snowy stitched hillside using the Slimline Nature Border Dies, where I lined up my snowmen to match the hill's curve. Once I had all my snowmen in place, I added four speech bubbles above them from the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles Dies. I added greetings to each of the bubbles from the Feeling Frosty set and the "sending hugs" sentiment from the Alpaca Holiday Stamps using VersaFine Onyx Black Ink. At this point, my card felt a little flat to me, like it was missing something, so I pulled out the snowflakes from the Snowflake Circle Frame Dies to cut one from each color of cardstock to match the snowmen.

That wraps up my projects for today. Thanks so much for hanging out with me. I hope I've inspired you to spread a little happiness by sending out a card to someone you love. 💛
