Let's Chill Card with Leanne: Black Friday Exclusive!

Hi everyone! Leanne here and I'm sharing a fun shaker card today. My card features some adorable images from the Black Friday gift with purchase exclusive stamp set, Let's Chill. I pulled out some older stamp and die sets along with the Let's Chill set to create this little winter scene and shaker window. All are listed below with a description of how they were used. 

Let's Chill Stamp Set & coordinating dies - For the seal and heart images plus "let's chill" sentiment

Lovey Dovey Stamp Set & coordinating dies - For the "you're my favorite" sentiment

Stitched Arch Die - I used the largest die in the set to create the shaker window. 

Joyful Holiday Paper Pack - The colorful polka dot pattern paper made a fun frame for my scene. 

I created the shaker part in the tradition way by adhering a piece of clear acetate behind the frame for the window and building a shaker well with thick foam tape strips. I filled the shaker with some iridescent heart confetti and snowflake sequins. 

Copics: R00, R30, RV11, RV13, T0, T2, C0, C1, C3, C5

I Copic colored the stamped images (colors used listed above). I created a little snow bank for the seals sit on with the same Stitched Arch Die used for the shaker window. I stamped "let's chill" onto the snow bank. I added the seals, hearts, and "you're my favorite" with thin foam squares so they would be popped up a bit. Lastly I adhered my completed shaker scene to an A2 size card base.

Sliding Window Die Focused Card with Nicky

Hello there, this is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio blog and I'm sharing a fun Sliding Window Dies interactive card that uses a number of Sunny's products. Please read on for the details.

If you've never made a sliding window card before I think my best advice would be for you to visit the Sunny Studio You Tube Channel and here's a LINK to a tutorial. You can probably start at around 10 mins 30 seconds to jump straight to how to make one. Additionally you can also search Sunny's You Tube channel for further sliding window card tutorials made by the design team over the years.

To make my card I started by selecting my patterned papers which would work together. The pink cardstock is from Gingham Pastels 6x6 Cardstock and the green cardstock is something old from my stash and I used the Sliding Window Dies to create all of the different panels necessary to construct the card. Since patterned cardstock can be on the thinner side I decided to always back a panel of patterned paper with a panel of regular cardstock, gluing it down very thoroughly before tackling the die-cutting. This builds a sturdy card that can stand up to lots of opening and closing and it also feels nice and substantial to handle.

With the card now formed, I set about making the decorative panel on the front using the Big Panda stamps and coordinating dies. I stamped in black ink and coloured the sweet Panda image using Copic markers in T7, T6, T5, T4, T3 and T2 together with C3, C1 C0 and C00 for the white parts and I blushed the cheeks with RV04, RV02 and RV00. I die cut the image and gave the panda a heart to hold. This heart as well as the flowers you see in the gingham grass were made using the Gift Card Envelope Dies. I created two grass panels using the Mini Grass Border Dies and glued in place, I then attached the panda to the window slider but only adhering at the bottom so that it would pop up freely and I added the simple die cut flowers to the grass.

To fill out the scene a little more I did a bit of layered stamping using the Beautiful Bluebells stamp set. I die cut the images using the coordinating dies and inserted the blooms around the Panda to add some next level cuteness. 

Finally, and to complete the card I highlighted a few points with a white gel pen and I stamped the 'You Are So Lovely' sentiment from Lovey Dovey plus some of the heart images from the same set on the inside of the window. I glued a few sparkling clear sequins to the card and I chose to attach the decorative window panel to a regular card base so that a longer message could be hand written inside and it gives the recipient the opportunity to stand the card up the normal way and with the window closed or to lay it down and open the window exposing the inside message. It's always nice to have options!

I'll be back next Friday with something new so I hope to see you back here again a week from now.

Tree Branch Die Focused Card with Nicky

Hi, this is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio blog and I have a card to share that features the Tree Branch Dies along with other products.

As I so often do, I started at the back and worked forwards. To that end I die cut pink cardstock using the Bursting Hearts Die and popped out all of the hearts and layered the piece on top of a white A2 panel and then glued to my card base. I took another white A2 panel and die cut using the Comic Strip Everyday Die and I snipped out the divisions to leave a skinny frame.  This was backed with foam tape and applied to the heart background. I die cut a circle from the same pink cardstock and stamped the sentiment from Lovey Dovey, this was also applied with foam tape.

I die cut two tree branches from white cardstock using the Tree Branch Dies and coloured with Copic markers. I also stamped the birds and blooms from Love Birds using Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa, and die cut using the coordinating dies. Here are the Copic colours used:

Branches - E44, E42, E31, E41
Leaves - B04, B12, G40, G20
Birds - B04, B12, B41, BG70, Y17, YR31
Blushes and Blooms - R85, R83, R81

A white gel pen was used to highlight a few points then the  branches and birds were applied with foam tape and leaves and blooms glued in their positions and with that ... the card was complete!

Thanks for stopping by to read the blog today, I'll be back next Friday with something new.

Love Birds Card with Leanne

Hello and happy Monday! Leanne here to share some fresh card making inspiration showcasing the Love Birds stamp set.  

I started with a light aqua blue card base. I trimmed a panel of white card stock down just slightly smaller than my A2 card base. I ran that panel through my die cut machine with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die to give it that decorative texture.  I then used a Fancy Frames Circle die to cut out a scalloped circle shaped window.  I also die cut some peach card stock with that same circle frame die four times.  The peach scalloped circles have been stacked and adhered together to create one thick frame to highlight the scene.  

I used a blend of Tattered Rose and Dried Marigold Distress Oxide inks to create a soft peachy background to put behind the window.  I Copic colored the birds and branch images. I used the coordinating Love Birds dies to cut them out and then added them onto the card.  I tucked one bird behind the top of circle window so he's peeking out and looking down at the one perched on the branch.  

Copic's used for coloring the stamped images:

peach - YR01, YR61, YR02
aqua blue - BB70, BG10, BG11, BG13
brown - E41, E42
green - G43, G94
yellow flower center - Y11, Y15
rosy cheeks - R00, R20

I stamped the word "tweetheart" directly onto the background. It fit perfectly in the space between the birds.  To finish the greeting I added a sentiment from the Lovey Dovey stamp set.

Purrfect Birthday Card with Isha

Hello everyone, I am Isha with a clean and simple card featuring the adorable cat image from the Purrfect Birthday stamp set. Even if this is a birthday stamp, I decided to create a fun and happy non-birthday card for a friend just to let her know that she makes me happy :)

I started by sponging a white card for the sky using kitsch flamingo, wilted violet and scattered straw distress oxide inks. Flick some water for some texture. Die-cut the front panel using the cloud die from the Slimline Nature Border dies. Adhere both the pieces to a white card base. Stamp the sentiment from the Lovey Dovey stamp using grey inks by Altenew to give an ombrè effect. 

Sponge the grass area by masking it using a post-it. Stamp the images, color using copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Adhere to the card using 3d foam and liquid glue.

Cat - Purrfect Birthday stamp and dies
Heart - Lovey Dovey stamp
Mushroom house - Garden Fairy stamps and dies
Mushroom - Home Sweet Gnome stamp and dies

To finish I added some Nuvo drops onto the mushroom. Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Notebook Die Focused Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today and I’m sharing a CAS card with a touch of elegance featuring the Notebook Tabs Dies. When I first saw this notebook paper die I immediately thought of a large handwritten message and Sunny Studio has the perfect sentiment stamps to give it that look! Paired with a pencil from the A Cut Above Stamps, I just love how this came together.

I started this A2 card by die-cutting a piece of gray cardstock using the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies. I adhered this to a white card front. Next, I die-cut a piece of kraft cardstock using a Stitched Rectangles Die and embossed it using the Woodgrain Embossing Folder. I adhered this centered on the gray frame.

I die-cut a light pink parchment cardstock 3 times using the Notebook Tabs Die and stamped lines on one of them in a dark pink ink using the A Cut Above Stamps. I then stamped the sentiment from the Lovey Dovey Stamps in gray ink. I already loved these scripty stamps, but they work so perfect on the notebook paper die for that handwritten look! I adhered the 3 notebook papers layered over each other.

To finish, I stamped roses and leaves from the Everything’s Rosy Stamps and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. The pencil from the A Cut Above Stamps was a perfect finishing touch. I also die-cut this using the coordinating dies.

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by today! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.
