Pink Peonies Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm happy to be back with this lovely mix & match of new and less new items. It's always nice to use our older sets and pair them with new images to give them some love.

I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them using the coordinating dies and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. I've only used two stamp sets on this card: Pink Peonies for the flowers and leaves, and Foxy Friends for the foxes, watering can and birds. And once everything was colored, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.

I cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth, and used the Buffalo Plaid Straight die to add texture to my panel. I wanted my panel to match with the Pink Peonies, so I covered it with spun sugar oxide ink first, and then added a gingham pattern using the Straight Stripes stencil along with worn lipstick oxide ink. I splattered water all over the panel and dried it with a paper towel, mixed some worn lipstick distress spritz with water and added more splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink and with festive berries oxide ink. Next I cut a Frilly Frame Lattice panel out of white cardstock, attached it to my Buffalo Plaid Straight panel using 1mm foam squares, and then stuck all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

For the greeting, I started off by cutting both pieces of my Brilliant Banner 3 out of vellum, white heat embossed "Thinking of you" from Watering Can on the main vellum piece, attached that main vellum piece to the back element using liquid glue, and then attached the banner to my panel using clear foam squares. I finally glued some clear droplets here and there to bring some shine to the card, and that's it! 

I hope that this card has inspired you to shop your old stash and mix your products with new ones. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time.

Designer's Choice: Majestic Meadow Card with Nicky

Hello everyone this is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog and I have a fun and colourful thank you card to share with you today so please read on for all the details you need to know.

I took a white A2 panel of cardstock and ink blended using Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink. I applied this panel to my card base and then used the Majestic Meadow Background Stamp to stamp another white A2 panel of cardstock. I used the coordinating die to die cut the different elements.

I then stamped and die cut the images I was wanting using Foxy Friends and Foxy Friends Dies. Now it was time to colour everything, here are the Copic colours used:

Foxes - E37, E34, E33, E11, C3, C1, C00
Pink Flowers - RV10, RV02, RV55, RV06
Greens - YG67, YG17, YG01, G43, YG13, YG61, YG03, G40, G20
Chick & Watering Can - Y13, C3, C1

I highlighted the images and defined the eyes on the foxes and chick and then applied the images to the scene using foam tape, I started in the background with the trees and then the taller flowers in the foreground and then figured out a nice arrangement for the foxes. A few points were highlighted with a white gel pen.

Time for a few finishing touches. I dotted in some daisies into the grass in the foreground and then I stamped the bold greeting from Big Bold Greetings using Fuschia ink from The Stamp Market and the smaller part of the sentiment is from the useful Words of Gratitude stamp set. Both sentiment parts were backed with more foam tape and applied and then this whole decorative panel was applied to a larger white card base.

I truly appreciate you stopping by the blog today to read about this card. Enjoy a truly wonderful and hopefully creative weekend.

Designer's Choice: Foxy Friends Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm thrilled to be back with this fun and lovely slimline scene featuring a character you might have recognized: Little Red Riding Hood. I created her using an image from Puddle Jumpers, and gave her some sweet and gentle wolf friends using images from Foxy Friends. Super fun!

I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. For Little Red Riding Hood, I simply masked the duck details off the hood, applied the ink to the stamp, removed the washi tape and then stamped the image. I did this two or three times to get a really nice impression, cut all the images using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers. I went for different shades of green for the trees, neutral warm grays for the wolves, turquoise the birds and of course red for Little Red Riding Hood, as well as the birdhouses for more red accents on the card.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Foxy Friends - wolves, birds • Puddle Jumpers - little red riding hood • Seasonal Trees - trees, birdhouses, log • Bunnyville - grass, butterflies.

Next I cut a slimline panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock using a die from the Slimline Scalloped Frame die set, I divided it in half using washi tape, and colored both parts using oxide inks. I started with the lower section and blended mowed lawn and rustic wilderness oxide inks. I mixed some rustic wilderness oxide ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters to the grass border. Next I moved on to the upper part, first covered the entire section with tumbled glass oxide ink, and then used a tree stencil from my stash along with broken china oxide ink to add a forest background to my scene. I splattered water on the upper section and dried the panel with a paper towel, mixed some broken china with water and added more splatters, and then mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters all over my panel.

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and once my panel was dry, I attached them all using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. I cut a slightly larger slimline panel out of white cardstock and attached my Little Red Riding Hood scene on top using liquid glue. I cut a scalloped panel out of yellow cardstock using another Slimline Scalloped Frame die, stuck it to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches card base using 1mm foam tape, and then attached my little scene using foam tape again because I like my cards to have dimension.

Finally I used a Brilliant Banner 1 die to cut a banner out of brown cardstock, white heat embossed "Life with you is an adventure" from Critter Campout on that banner, and attached it right above Little Red Riding Hood using foam squares again. 

And that's it! I've had this idea in mind for quite a while so I was very happy to finally create it and I'm glad of how it turned out. Love those little wolves so much! I hope you do too. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!
