Treat Bag Topper Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I wanted to show you the versatility of the Treat Bag Topper die! Yes, it can be a topper, but this set has extra shapes that make it so great. I created a card and matching envelope to highlight these options. As I mentioned in previous posts, I am always looking for ways to increase my birthday card stash! A situation that many of us may be familiar with!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Treat Bag Topper Die Focused Birthday Cat Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Happy Thoughts, Frilly Frame Dies, Make A Wish)

For this design, I created a white panel with the outer border from the Frilly Frames Stripes die. I used the rectangle from the Treat Bag Topper die and tried to create three evenly spaced windows in this panel. At this point I was still going for a see through card, so I cut a piece of acetate and placed in on the back of the white piece.

In the pictures, this acetate is almost invisible, but it is the surface that I used to glue all my components in place! I changed my mind about the design because the white panel had become flimsy, after all the die cutting. I decided to glue a beautiful ocher yellow paper from Gingham Pastels to the back of the frame, making it much sturdier!

If you are in for a party, make sure to invite the adorable Birthday Cats. I selected a few cuties and accessories and colored them in with my copics. The big birthday cake is from the Make A Wish stamps. The sentiment combines the ‘Happy’ word (Treat Bag Topper die) and  ‘Birthday’ (Happy Thoughts) which I stamped on the cake in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I glued the Happy sentiment to the middle part of the card and created little ‘cats with cake’ clusters on the top and bottom of the design. A few Gold Jewels were the finishing touch!

Finally, I die cut three party hats and banners from the Treat Bag Topper die and Gingham Pastels to decorate a white envelope for this card.

Thank you for joining me and I hope you will have a fun time with these dies!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Gladys Marcelino

Hello friends!! Gladys here and I'm so excited to be back on the blog today to share some fun and fresh new projects using products from the latest release. Let's get started!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Panda Party Cards by Gladys Marcelino (Make A Wish)

For my first card I created a cute birthday card featuring the adorable pandas from the Panda Party stamp set. To start I used a watercolor stencil and ink blended a pastel rainbow with various distress oxide inks. I added interest by splattering diluted shaded lilac and white paint using a small paint brush. I stamped the pandas and birthday accessories from the stamp set with alcohol friendly ink. I colored the images with copic markers and used their coordinating dies to cut them out. Since this is a birthday card we can't have a birthday without cake so I stamped and colored the cake from a smaller stamp set called Make A Wish.

Next I cut down the stenciled background panel using a stitched rectangle die slightly smaller than A2 size. Then it was time to assemble the scene. Once I was happy with the placement of the images I used double sided foam tape to attached them. I stamped the punny sentiment on the center of the card and finally I mounted the panel onto a rainbow pattern paper from the latest release called Spring Fever.

For my second project I made a slimline card, again using the Panda Party stamp set with the Wonderful Windows dies.

I began by ink blending the background using a brick stencil and distress oxide inks. Then I started die cutting elements from the window dies. I used various colored card stock and pattern paper to complement the scene. The flowers did take the longest from cutting the different colors of paper and gluing them together. I wanted to create a cluster of flowers for the windowsills so it was a labor of love and I enjoyed the process. Also, I think it's because I'm longing for Spring to come. LOL!

I was able to fit almost 2 windows on top of each other and stuck the pandas in each of them. I cut a grass border and a couple of pandas holding flowers which I thought was so sweet. Next I heat embossed the sentiment in white on vellum. The sentiment "Have a pandastic day!" was my inspiration for this scene. I had imagined the pandas are greeting their neighbors, friends or family members to have a fantastic day. I  had so fun creating this scene and I love how it turned out.

That is all for me today. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

Big Bold Greetings Cards with Vanessa and Tina

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a simple Thank You card using the Big Bold Greetings stamps.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Big Bold Greetings Baby Elephant Thank You Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I trimmed a panel of white cardstock slightly smaller than my card base and stamped the thanks with grey ink to create my patterned background. After I had adhered the panel to the card, I stamped the Baby Elephant and the Garden Fairy butterfly onto a piece of cardstock, colored everything with Copics, die-cut the elements with the matching dies and adhered them with foam tape.

Then I stamped the sentiment, die-cut it and added it to the card. Finally, I added white gems and used a white gel pen to add highlights.

I love big, bold greetings! Have a lovely weekend, see you next week!

Hello crafty friends, it’s Tina with a sweet birthday card featuring the beautiful Big Bold Greetings stamp and die set. There are a lot of sentiments in this set which makes it a super versatile addition to your stash!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Big Bold Greetings Baby Elephant Happy Birthday Card by Tina (featuring Spring Greenery, Make A Wish, Frilly Frame Dies, Stitched Arch Dies)

Since you can never have enough birthday cards; I choose the ‘Happy Birthday’ and stamped it in a dark pink Memento ink. After die cutting the sentiment, I also cut two extra layers in white Neenah cardstock so I could stack them for dimension.

Next, I stamped and die cut all my images using the adorable elephants from Baby Elephants, the hats from Panda Party and the cake from Make A Wish. I used my Copics for the coloring, selecting bright Spring colors.

In my design I included a wreath arch made with large and small branches from the Spring Greenery dies. To decorate this arch I also cut a bunch of colorful little flowers from the Wonderful Windows die set. These flowers were the perfect size to scatter all over the greenery.

My card panel was cut from a piece of Neenah Solar White paper using the Frilly Frame Eyelet Lace die. I really love this die as a panel because it has a lovely scalloped edge. I didn’t want my background to be too distracting, so I just added a hint of purple with a shiplap stencil from my stash and Distress Oxide Dusty Concord. 

Next I die cut an arch shape out of the panel using the largest of the Stitched Arched diesTo assemble the card, I first glued the remaining rectangle part of my panel directly to a white card base. Next, I mounted the stitched arch portion with foam tape to the base.

After building the greenery arch following the shape of the stitched arch, I added the little flowers and embellished them with a Pure White jewel to the centers. I completed the card by adhering the cake, elephants, and bold sentiment. 

Another birthday card ready to send!  Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Big Bold Greetings Cards with Marie and Catherine

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Marie here for another pop-up platform box project inspiration! I am a little obsessed with these pop - up boxes by Lawn Fawn because they are the perfect size for showcasing the small images in Sunny Studio's Stamp sets. Today's Birthday Platform Pop-up feature the Big Bold Greetings Stamp from their latest Spring 2023 release as well as their new Garden Critters Stamps.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Big Bold Greetings Birthday Card by Marie Marco (featuring Garden Critters)

I started off my card by stamping all my images from the Garden Critters Stamps with Antique Linen Distress ink onto watercolor paper. Using Faber Castell watercolor pencils, I colored all my images and cut them out using the Garden Critters Dies.  I then stamped my Big Bold Greeting sentiment onto Neenah Solar white 110lb cardstock using Seedless preserves Distress Oxide ink and cut out the sentiment using the corresponding Big Bold Greetings Dies.

Next step is to die cut all the pop-up platform components and ink blend the panels. For the background panel, I used a cloud stencil with Salvaged Patina Distress Ink. For all the grass panels, I ink blended them using Twisted Citron Distress Ink and Mowed Lawn Distress Ink. And finally the "dirt" was inked using Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Inks.

After Assembling my box, I decided to decorate the side panels of the base using the new Spring Fever Paper. I trimmed the paper and wrapped it around the box using Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue. Then I positioned the Big Bold Happy Birthday sentiment in the middle of the box. To create the floating illusion, I placed sturdy acetate strips on either side and adhered it using double sided tape adhesive. I did the same to the adorable flying garden critters. Finally as a finishing touch, I added a small die cut heart in the center, and presto! Another super simple interactive pop-up card that's perfect for spring birthdays!! Thank you so much for joining me today!! Until next time, Happy Crafting and Cardmaking!

Hello Crafty Friends, Catherine here! I hope you everyone is having a good week so far.  Today, I am sharing a birthday card featuring Big Bold Greetings and the ever so cute Panda Party!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Big Bold Greetings Birthday Card by Catherine Cohen (featuring Panda Party, Comic Strip Everyday Dies, Make A Wish)

To start, I die cut a frame with confetti cardstock from Surprise Party using Comic Strip Everyday Dies. Next, I placed the frame over A2 white cardstock and gently traced the horizontal lines on the frame. I used the lines as a guide to ink blend the background. I removed the the frame and started ink blending my background working from bottom to top using Abandoned Coral, Squeezed Lemonade, and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Inks. I splattered water onto the background and added specks of orange, yellow and blue water color.

I stamped “Make a Wish” from Big Bold Greetings Stamp with Versamark Ink and heat embossed it with pink embossing powder. I then die cut the sentiment with the coordinating die Big Bold Greetings Dies.

I stamped the cute pandas from Panda Party, birthday cake from Make A Wish Stamps. I borrowed some presents from Happy Owlidays, balloons from Oceans of Joy, and the party hats from Party Pups. I die cut the images with the coordinating dies and colored them with Copic Markers listed in the link in my blog below.

I adhered the frame to the background of the card followed by all the images. I used foam tape for extra dimension.

Thanks so much for joining me today and I hope you like my card! For more inspiration, I would love to have you visit me at Craft-Cat!
