Sunflower Fields Card with Marieke

Hello all, Marieke here. I'm back again with my weekly post for Sunny Studio Stamps. Today I hope to inspire you with a card that I made using the Sunflower Fields Stamp & Die.

For this project I thought it would be fun to create a shaped card, so I used the Spellbinders Make a Wish Arch Labels Etched Dies S5-619. Die cut the large die twice and scored one at 3/4 inch. Adhered them together to create my base. Traced the inner shape of the large die out of Kraft cardstock and cut the slightly smaller one using pattern paper.

I stamped the sunflowers and leaves out of the Sunflower Fields stamp using Scattered Straw, Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge, Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Oxides for the sunflowers. For the leaves I stamped Shabby Shutters twice, Peeled Paint and Forest Moss. Die cut the elements using the Sunflower Fields Die. Shaped the flowers and bit before adhering them.

Stamped the thanks sentiment out of the Big Bold Greetings Stamp and Cut them using the matching Big Bold Greetings Dies. Stamped the other sentiment out of Inside Greetings Friends directly on to the card. Finished the card by adding some black paint splatters.

Have a wonderful day!

Stitched Heart Die Focused Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and today we are creating a sweet shaped card starting with the largest Scalloped Heart die and a piece of white card stock. This will be our base.

Next, I cut a white heart with the largest of the Stitched Heart dies. This shape is slightly smaller than the scalloped one so they fit perfectly when you layer them. Since this piece will be the background scene, I am using a cloud stencil from my stash and Shaded Lilac Distress oxide. I love trying out new color combo’s and in this design I was really having fun with different tones.

Star of the show are the adorable parrots from Love Birds. I went all out with my Copics coloring these cuties! Since the card is not complex, I wanted my images to stand out! After creating a heart shaped card base (Stitched Heart dies), I simply glued the white heart and the sky one to the base with liquid glue.

The sentiment needed to be simple and rather small due to limited space in my design, so I found the perfect one from Inside Greetings Congrats and stamped it directly on to the sky panel with Versafine Onyx Black ink. 

Next, I could place the branch, birds and leaves with foam tape beneath the phrase. For some extra sparkle, I added three of the beautiful Heart Shaped Pearls around the sentiment.

Do you like shaped cards as much as I do? Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Sunflower Fields Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M here! Today I have an elegant card for you using the Sunflower Fields set! I usually go for bright pinks, orange, greens and turquoise on my cards, but today I chose a soft, muted pink to  mulled red color scheme!

For my card I used an A2 size card base. I started off by trimming a piece of grey polka dot patterned paper from the Subtle Grey Tones paper pack to 4,25 x 5,5 inches and adhered it to my card base using double sided tape.

Next, I trimmed a piece of white card stock to 4,25 x 5,5 inches and ink blended the outer edges with pink ink and then die cut out the largest of the Icing Rectangle Frame Dies to create a frame and adhered it to the card base using liquid glue.

I stamped one of the sentiments from the Inside Greetings Friends Stamps set in the upper right corner. There are so many good sentiments to choose from with this stamp set!

I then stamped the sunflowers and leaves from the Sunflower Fields set, layer by layer, using light to dark inks. Next, I die cut the stamped images using the coordinating sunflower and leaves dies. As the stem stamp does not have a coordinating die I fussy cut them, super easy and quick! Next, I stamped one of the little bees and die cut it out using the coordinating die!

I assembled the sunflowers with the stems and leaves using liquid glue. Lastly, I added foam dots to the back of them and the little bee for dimension and arranged them to my taste and adhered them to the card.

Thanks for stopping by! Wishing you a happy and colorful day!

Tiki Time Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and with one heatwave over we are already bracing ourselves for the next one! That is where a cool drink from the Tiki Time stamp and die set is much needed!

This card is all about happy and bright sunny colors, only the card base was kept white. The next layer is a fun yellow paper (Striped Silly) cut with the largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat dies. I simply glued this piece to the card base before cutting a blue Stitched Arch with a paper from my stash. This will be my ‘sky’ background. I used the little island shape from Tropical Scenes as my beach.

Lastly, I stamped the bar image, two cute parrots and their drinks from the Tiki Time stamp set. I selected warm Copic colors and added a few highlights with a white gel pen.

I took a moment to decide where to put my sentiment since the card was already kind of busy. After browsing through my stash I found this sweet saying in the Inside Greetings Friends set and it was the perfect size to add to the front of the bar. I stamped the phrase on a piece of the same blue paper as my sky with Versafine Onyx Black ink. 

I used foam tape to add dimension to the sky, sand and images. And I love how these cute parrots are enjoying their fancy cool drinks! With lots going on already, I kept the bling part simple, just a few Champagne Clear Jewels were perfect!

I hope you are enjoying a fun crafty summer! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Jungle Vine Die Focused Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today we are creating a fun scene with the versatile Jungle Vines die set!

I started by cutting two pieces of the long vines, some leaves and one branch from white card stock. After placing them on a sticky mat, I added color with my distress Oxides in yellow, green, red and brown shades.

Next, I selected a matching green card base to complement the colors of the leaves. My card panel was cut from white paper with the largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat dies.

For extra dimension, I dry embossed this piece with the Quilted Hearts folder and glued it directly to the card base with liquid glue. I used a small paintbrush and distress oxide ink to add some green splatters to the quilted backdrop.

The stars of the show are two adorable cuties from the Love Monkey set. I knew I wanted to place the vines to the left side, so there was enough space for one of the monkeys to fly up into the sky. All the coloring was done with my trusty Copic markers.

This design needed a bold sentiment and I found the perfect one in the Inside Greetings Friends stamps. I used Versafine Onyx Black ink to add the phrase to a white banner.

Now it was time to put the scene together, starting with the branch, the vines and the monkeys. Lastly, I placed the sentiment banner in the left bottom corner with some foam tape for dimension. After adding a few sparkly Iridescent jewels this project was finished. I hope you have fun creating with these amazing dies!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Potted Rose & Pink Peonies Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and I always like to have several flower cards in my stash because they can be given for so many occasions. The gorgeous Potted Rose stamps and dies are set up for layering but today I wanted to show you another way to use these products.

But can we first take a look at the background! I am a big fan of the Frilly Frame dies and this one is new in my stash. It is called Frilly Frames Quatrefoil and it is stunning! Sometimes, ideas pop up on the spot and that is what happened when I ran this die through the machine. Almost all the inside pieces were still in place, and that was when I decided to keep this pretty design as an inlay panel. I created a white card base, the same size as the frame piece and glued both together with liquid glue. This is easy by turning around the intricate panel and adding a drop of glue to each individual part. 

To change up the design, I stamped two pots instead of one. I used the outline stamp and inked both pieces with Faded Jeans Distress Oxide. I used a small blending brush so staying inside the stamped lines was no issue. To add depth I layered a speckled design with the same ink and a stencil from my stash. This brings instant interest and depth to the pots. 

My flowers were selected from the Pink Peonies set, they were inspired by the Peonies in our garden. I opted for a blue and pink color combo with my Copics. The centres of the flowers were filled with a gold glitter gel pen. I love that the pot die makes it easy to slide in the flowers and leaves. One flower arrangement was glued directly to the background, while the second was popped up with foam tape for dimension. 

I stamped a sweet sentiment from Inside Greetings Friends on a white banner and mounted it to the left side of the card. A few Pink Spinel Jewels were the perfect little bling for this flower scene. I am looking forward to seeing your flower arrangements!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Tulip Path Background Card with Marieke

Hello all, Marieke here. I'm back again with my weekly post for Sunny Studio Stamps. Today I hope to inspire you with a project that I made using the Tulip Path Background stamp.

For my card I cut a top fold white base card. Cut a dark grey rectangle slightly smaller and stamped the Tulip Path Background stamp onto it using the same color of ink. Die cut the top using the matching Tulip Path Background dies.

Added the background on to the white cardbase and stamped the sentiment out of the Inside Greetings Friends Stamp in two different colors. Because I decided yellow was my "pop" color I stamped the "Brighter" in a yellow color instead of all black. Colored up the tulips using two different colors of pencil.

Used Copic Colors:
Yellow - Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11
White - C5, C3, C1, C00, 0
Orange - YR09, YR16, YR12
Hair - E57, E55, E53
Skin - E000, E00, E04, E11, E21 / R20
Black - N8, N6, N4

Stamped the images out of Puddle Jumper and Foxy Friends. Colored them up using my Copic markers and cut them by hand before adding them on to the card.

Have a wonderful day!
