Sliding Window Halloween Cuties Card with Juliana

Hello friends! It's Juliana Michaels and today I'm sharing a Halloween card featuring the Sliding Window die and Halloween Cuties stamp set. I recently shared my first card using the Sliding Window die and I couldn't wait to use it to create a Halloween card.

I began by stamping and coloring the images from the Halloween Cuties stamp set with Copic markers. I then die cut them using the coordinating dies. To create the scene on the front of the sliding window card, I cut a piece of watercolor paper to 3x4 inches. I then die cut it into two pieces to create sky and grass sections using the Woodland Borders die. 

Next, I inked the sky section with Distress Oxide in Faded Jeans and added some water splatters to create the stars. For the grass, I used Twisted Citron and Mowed Grass. I then adhered all of the colored images and used double sided foam adhesive to pop up a few of them for added dimension.

When it came time to create the actual sliding window piece, I die cut it using the purple gingham from the Gingham Jewel Tones 6x6 paper. I then cut the back piece from a coordinating piece of purple cardstock. To complete the card, I stamped the sentiment on the inside and then finished it off with a black and white gingham bow.

I hope you enjoyed this bit of Halloween inspiration using the Sliding Window die set. I just love how fun this die is and I can't wait to create my next one! Have you created a card using the Sliding Window die set? Make sure to tag us on social media so we can check it out!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Mixing Stamps Cards with Waleska Galindo

Hello friends! Waleska Galindo here with a set of cards with the amazing Sunny Studio Stamps. Thank you so much Mendi for having me as a Guest Designer today! I called this post Mixing Stamp Sets because there are lots of great cards you can make mixing the stamp sets you already have with new ones, all you have to do is think outside the box ... having a Christmas stamp set doesn't mean you can't use it for Halloween!! let me share with you how.

For my first card I used the new Happy Owl-o-ween stamp set, I wanted to create a night scene and I wanted to put the cute owls on a fence so I created the fence with the trunk from Woodsy Creatures stamp set by stamping the trunk on desert storm cardstock and glue all the trunks together to create the fence. For the night sky I used distress inks Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot. I stamp and color the owls with markers and glue them to be on the fence waiting for the time to start trick or treating.  

For my second card I wanted to make a very spooky night scene. To make the spooky tree branches I used the Holiday Style Christmas set, but when I stamped the branches in black they totally change from Christmas to Halloween, I used distress ink Seedless Preserves and Black Soot for the night sky and for the moon I used Squeezed Lemonade. I color all my images with markers, to finish the spooky scene I added three bats from the Halloween Cuties stamp set. In the end I think is too hard for this cute stamps to be spooky...they are simply to cute!

For this next card I used the new and adorable piggie from Barnyard Buddies and I mix it with Island Getaway. I used the island as a mud puddle for the piggies to be playing, the splashes are from the island getaway stamp set too.  For the mud puddle I used Oxide ink Vintage Photo mixed with a little water, for the grass distress ink Mowed Lawn and for the sky I used Tumbled glass Distress Ink. The rest of the images are colored with markers.

For the last card I mix two of my favorite stamp sets from all time the Magical Mermaid stamp set and the Pirate Pals stamp set. I created this cute pirate girl by changing the face of the pirate and adding the pirate hat to the mermaid face. I created the striped background with distress ink Shaded Lilac and post-it label tape. I used some of the stamps from the Pirate Pals stamp set to create the map and color the images with markers! I have to say my daughter loved this pirate girl so much!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you have many SUNNY days ahead!

Happy Owl-O-Ween Nighttime Witch Owl Card with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I'm using the Happy Owl-O-Ween stamp set. This set is so super adorable with all the dress ups and the best part is, it doesn't even need to be used specifically for Halloween, with all the options for the dress ups and even the sentiments that are included, there are a wide variety of cards you can make with it.

For my card today, I am going to be making a Halloween card, even though we don't celebrate here I love the colours and designs you can do for it, so that's why I'm making one today. To begin I stamped out all my images that I wanted to use from Happy Owl-O-Ween and then I also brought in some older stamp sets Halloween Cuties for the broom, pumpkin and bat and also the Harvest Happiness for another pumpkin. I coloured all my images in with Copic markers and then cut them out using the coordinating dies.

For my background I used several Distress Inks and blended them from black to blue to purple and then splattered water on top to give a waster splotch effect. I dried it off with a heat tool and then did the same steps but with green Distress Ink for the grassy hill. I also cut that down with a border die also. I adhered the grassy piece to the background and then adhered on my images.

For my images I adhered them with foam tape for more dimension. I also decided to make my owl have a cape also, so I quickly coloured and cut the front and back piece for the cape and adhered that to my owl also. Last up was the sentiment. I prepped the background with an anti-static bag and then white heat embossed the sentiment 'Happy Owl-O-Ween' onto the right hand side of the background.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I'll catch you all next time!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Anita Madden

Hello, it’s Anita Madden here. I’m excited to be guest designing for Sunny Studio Stamps today. I adore these new stamp sets by Mendi! I’m using two sets from the new release:  Happy Owl-o-ween and Missing Ewe. I also used some elements from the Halloween Cuties set. I used the coordinating dies from all three sets.

For my first card I colored all the images with Copics. The owl and witch costume are from Happy Owl-o-ween and the broom and bats are from Halloween Cuties. I die cut the images with the coordinating dies. I sponged distress inks onto watercolor paper that is 4 ¼ x 5 ½ and a watercolor paper circle. I misted them with water and dried them with a paper towel. I stamped the sentiment on the moon and then adhered all the images with foam tape for some dimension. 

For my second card I used the owls and costumes from the Happy Owl-o-ween set. The spider web, spider, and bats are from the Halloween Cuties set. I colored all the images with Copics and die cut them with the coordinating dies. I sponged distress inks to create the grassy area, and then used distress inks and a stencil to create the clouds. I stamped the spider web directly onto my card and adhered all the other images with foam tape. I applied Glamour Dust to the bee’s wings and antennae, and the fairies wand for a bit of sparkle. 

For my last card I used the Missing Ewe set. These little sheep are so cute! I colored them with Copics and die cut them with the coordinating dies. Once again I used distress ink to sponge the grass, and used distress inks and a stencil to sponge the clouds. I stamped a little heart in the area where the missing ewe would be standing.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my cards. Thank you Mendi for having me as a guest!

Inspiration Week: Introducing Happy Owl-o-ween Stamps & Dies

We're only one day away from our big release day tomorrow and I don't know about you, but I'm getting super excited!  Today I'm sharing something really fun for Fall called Happy Owl-o-ween.  As you will see as you scroll through my card examples though, it's fun for so much more than Halloween.  ;)

First up is a fun trick-or-treat scene using three of the six costumes for our newest little owl. I created a sidewalk of sorts for them to perch on using some ribbon with a saddle-stitched edge. I then added some white dots to form my starry night's sky using my white Sharpie paint pen over my distress inked background.

Up next is an owl dressed up as a witch, paired together with the broom and bats from our Halloween Cuties set from last year.  After my inked-up background had completely dried, I heat embossed my sentiment with white embossing powder and my star background using Ranger's Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

For my next card I created a bright pumpkin scene, pulling pumpkins from both our Halloween Cuties and Harvest Happiness sets.  The white clouds in my background were created by die-cutting the clouds from Sunny Sentiments and Rain or Shine from masking material and then inking over the top of them using Tumbled Glass distress ink.  I then created the grass using a die from that same Sunny Sentiments set.  My last touch was a sentiment from Halloween Cuties heat embossed on a strip of paper that had been cut with our fishtail banner dies.

Up next is a card combining the horse & howdy sentiment from the new Barnyard Buddies, the banner from Birthday Smiles, the tree stump from Woodsy Creatures and the alphabet using Sweet Script.  

I colored all my images using Copic Markers, heat embossed the letters to spell out "partner" using white embossing powder and then added them to my card that was sponged with Colorbox Sky dye ink and Vintage Photo distress ink.  I added some jute twine to my banner with a glue pen as a final rustic touch.

For this card I thought it would be fun to use the owl without any costumes and pair him (or her) with the owl from our Woo Hoo set and the tree branch from A Bird's Life.  I sponged on some Twisted Citron distress ink along the top and bottom before stamping the stamp tree branch off the edge using more of the distress ink.  For my sentiment I curved it on my MISTI tool to match the curve of my circular window.

My next card was shared on Monday when I was sharing peeks of our new Barnyard Buddies stamps which you can read about HERE.  I love how many of these owls can work together with other sets.  I think the pirate costume would look super cute with some of the companion images from our Pirate Pals set. I have so many ideas, but unfortunately I just ran out of time...

For my last card of the day I couldn't resist creating a fun card focusing on the fun bumblebee costume from the set.  I paired my little guy with a sentiment from our Backyard Bugs stamps and a tree branch from our Woo Hoo stamps.

The star border on this card was cut from black cardstock (and backed with yellow cardstock that had been inked along the edge with distress ink) using a free mini star trio die that will automatically ship with each order placed on our website starting on July 21st (while supplies last).

Here's a full look at the new Happy Owl-o-ween stamps and coordinating dies available for purchase on Friday morning.

    

And a little graphic to show all the possible costume combinations...  

Many of the hats were designed to also fit the penguin from Bundled Up, the chick from A Good Egg, and the owl from Woo Hoo.
