Santa Claus Lane Card with Tina

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here with a sweet snowy scene in which I combined two amazing holiday sets.

From the Santa Claus Lane stamp and die set, I selected the cute Santa with his sleigh and presents. Next, I added an adorable cutie from the Reindeer Games stamp and die set. I love how well these sets work together to provide even more design ideas. After coloring all the images with my Copics, I put them aside to work on my backdrop.

Starting off with a teal card base, I then cut a panel with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes die from white card stock. For extra texture, I ran this panel through my die cutting  machine with the Cable Knit embossing folder. Folders are such a quick and easy solution to add that extra layer of dimension to your projects, and this one is just perfect for winter cards!

Another way to elevate your project is to include pattern paper. Here I am inlaying the Stitched Semi-Circle in a pale snowflake paper (Subtle Grey Tones). Now I only needed to cut a snowbank from white paper to complete the scene. After assembling all the background elements with liquid glue, I mounted the images with foam tape. Next step was to add loads of snow with a white paint pen!

The sentiment was selected from the Reindeer Games stamp set and stamped on a white banner with a red ink from my stash. A bunch of scattered larger snowflakes (Snowflake Circle Frame die) completed the scene. They each were embellished with a Champagne  Clear Jewel.

I loved combining these amazing sets and I hope you got inspired by this sweet design. Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Classy Christmas Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and I love to add sparkle and shine to my Christmas cards! For this project, I pulled my golden pigment ink and a golden paint pen to provide lots of holiday cheer! And although I adore cute critters, I also enjoy coloring beautiful flowers like these poinsettias from the Classy Christmas stamp and die set.

I stamped and cut all the flowers, leaves and berries so I could arrange them in the two corners of my card. For this project, I selected pink, red, yellow and blue Copic markers. I added lots of sparkle to the flowers and berries with a fine gold paint pen.

After creating a coral card base, I cut a white panel using the scalloped die from the Frilly Frames Stripes set. I wanted to keep a white border, so I masked the edges with Post-it tape before inking my panel with a stripe stencil and the golden pigment ink. I set this panel aside since this ink takes a while to dry.

I love adding layers to my projects by dry embossing (Dapper Diamonds folder) a piece of white card stock cut with the largest of the Limitless Labels 1. I distressed the edges of this piece with the same gold ink before gluing it to the scalloped piece and the card base.

Bold sentiments are amazing focal points of cards, and that is why I love the Season’s Greetings Stamps and Word Dies so much! I stamped the Merry Christmas in gold, and while that was drying (yes, I needed a bit of patience for this card, but it was well worth the wait!) I played around with the floral arrangement. Finally, I glued all the elements in place and used foam tape to add the large sentiment. For some extra shine, I sprinkled a few Gold Jewels on each side of the card.

I hope you got inspired by this project, and I can’t wait to see your take on this layout. Thank you for joining me, and happy crafting!

Mendi here popping in to share that Glassboard Studio has added an incredible new Scrapbook Magnetic Glass Craft Mat to their line-up. The size is a bit more manageable for travel than my favorite 36x24 mat, and it's also the perfect size for making cards! I love that it's oversized, so you not only have room to work on a 2-page scrapbook layout, but have an extra 1" border around it. The magnetic surface will also be super helpful for keeping elements in place until I glue them down. Use the code SUNNYSTUDIO to save 20% off through tonight at Midnight. After that, the code will still be good to save 15% off every day. 💛

Hogs & Kisses Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today sharing a clean and simple Christmas card featuring these adorable hogs from the Hogs & Kisses set. Aren't these chubby hogs just the cutest?! I love how happy and excited they are for the holidays!

I stamped the hogs from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp and a candy cane from the Roly Poly Penguins Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock.  I used the coordinating Hogs & Kisses Dies and the Roly Poly Penguins Dies to die cut them out. I also used the dies in the Hogs & Kisses set to die cut a few hearts out of red cardstock. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Hogs: E000/00/21/11/13/15, R00/20, R22, E41/43/44
Red: R14/24/29/39
Green: YG01/03
White: C1

For my background, I used the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies to die cut a panel out of white cardstock. I masked off the bottom half and lightly ink blended with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. I used a white gel pen to add some dots for snow. 

For the sentiment, I used the Brilliant Banner Dies 1 to die cut a banner out of teal cardstock. I stamped the "Holiday Hogs & Kisses" sentiment from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp set directly onto the banner with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used a Copic marker to add a little shadow onto the banner. The banner was assembled and highlighted with a white gel pen.

I adhered the sentiment banner and colored images to the inked panel with foam tape for a bit of interest. The panel was adhered to a piece of red cardstock before it was adhered to a white A2 card base (4.25" x 5.5"). I finished the card with a few of the red die cut hearts.

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

Have a wonderful and crafty day!
