Sprawling Surfaces Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm so happy to be back on the blog to give you an early taste of summer with this lovely scene showcasing multiple items (listed down below), including the wooden flooring from Sprawling Surfaces that I used as a deck to ground my little scene.

I started off by stamping all my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, as always I used the coordinating dies to cut them all, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and my Graph'it brush markers. I had so much fun going through my Sunny Studio collection to pick my stamps.

Here is a detailed list of what I used:
• Sprawling Surfaces: wooden floor
• Panda Party: pandas
• Seasonal Trees: large palm tree, coconuts
• Bunnyville: grass
• Fabulous Flamingos: tropical leaves
• Tiki Time: bar, toucans, torches, cocktails, greeting
• Sending Sunshine: small palm tree

When the coloring was done, I cut a 4,5 x 4,5 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel, and did a sunset scenery using stencils and oxide inks. On the bottom half of the panel, I created a sand border using a hillside stencil along with antique linen and vintage photo oxide inks. And on the upper part, I created a sunset sky. I first blended, from the top to the bottom, kitsch flamingo + dried marigold + squeezed lemonade oxide inks, and to make this part of the panel more interesting, I stenciled a tropical pattern on top using, from the top to the bottom, picked raspberry + carved pumpkin + mustard seed oxide inks.

As always, I added texture to my background. I started off by mixing some vintage photo oxide with water and used a small brush to make splatters on the sand border. Next I mixed some black soot oxide ink with water and added splatters on the tropical sky. And then I did the same with copic opaque white ink that I splattered all over the panel.

I set my panel aside for a few minutes, and once it was totally dry, I white heat embossed my "Aloha" greeting from Tiki Time at the very top of the panel, and then I attached all my images using a combination of 1mm + 2mm foam squares, liquid glue and 3mm glue dots. I finished my card by adding highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen. And that's it!

This little scene was so much fun to make, I love it, and I hope you do too! Now, who wants a cocktail? Thanks for stopping by, and see you next week!

Bighearted Bears Card with Rachel

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with a love-themed shaker card featuring the new and adorable Bighearted Bears Stamp Set. I absolutely LOVE this stamp set! It can be used for more than just Valentine's Day and it also coordinates perfectly with the previously released Panda Party Stamp Set. 

I first stamped my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I also stamped a fun little banner from the Panda Party Stamp Set. I used Copic markers to color my images and the coordinating Bighearted Bears and Panda Party die sets to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:

• Pandas: W00, W1, W3, W5, W7
• Cheeks: R32
• Pinks: RV02, RV04, RV17
• Reds: R14, R46, R59, R89

Next, I trimmed a piece of smooth white card stock to 4" x 5.25" and blended it with some Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. Once I finished blending, I then added some spatters of diluted Copic Opaque White Paint as well as some pink dots from some Copic Markers (RV02, RV04). I used some doubled sided tape to attach this piece to my top-folding A2 sized card base (4.25" x 5.5") and then die cut my scalloped frame 6x's using the largest die from the Fancy Frames Rectangles Die Set. I used liquid adhesive to glue five of the frames together and then adhered them to my card base over top of the ink-blended panel. I then stamped my sentiment from the My Heart Stamp Set with some Pinkfresh Candy Apple Ink, cut it out with the coordinating My Heart Die Set and then added it to the center of my card base.

Next, I poured some Red & Pink Clay Heart Confetti and Majestic Mini Sequins onto the center of my card. After spreading the embellishments out with my finger, I then glued a 4" x 5.25" piece of clear acetate to the top of my rectangular scalloped frame. To finish off the shaker portion of my card, I then glued one more layer of my frame on top of the acetate for a clean look. Lastly, I added my images with some 3D foam adhesive tape for a pop of dimension.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! For more inspiration, feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM feed. Wishing you all a lovely day!

Gift Card Envelope Die Focused Envelopes with Rachel

Hello friends! It's Rachel here and I have some fun little gift card envelopes to share with you that I made using the newly released Gift Card Envelope Die Set. If you've ever found yourself in a pinch where you've wanted to give someone a gift card, but didn't have a nice way to present it, this die set is for you!

These envelopes are so simple to create and you can dress them up or down as much as you like. You can simply used patterned paper and die cut the envelope and be done! I wanted to dress mine up a bit, and used adorable images from both the previously released Panda Party Stamp Set as well as the new Bighearted Bears Stamp Set. I also used both the Surprise Party Paper Pad as well as the Flirty Flowers Paper Pad for my envelopes. I used a basic rounded stitched rectangle die to cut the white center layers of my envelopes and adhered them to the backs of the envelopes with double-sided tape

All of my images were stamped onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I then used both the Panda Party and Bighearted Bears die sets to cut them out. My die cut sentiment came from the Gift Card Envelope Die Set and my stamped sentiments came from the versatile Happy Thoughts Stamp Set.

As you can see in the photo above, a standard gift card fits perfectly into the envelope. I had a lot of fun making these stylish envelopes and I think that you will too! You can check out the Gift Card Envelope Die Set and the rest of the amazing new release HERE!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Wishing you all a wonderful day!

Holiday Hugs Card with Gladys

Hello crafty friends, Gladys here! I'm excited to be back on the blog with a birthday card using the Holiday Hugs stamp set. Since I have been creating a lot of holiday cards, I wanted to mixed it up and make a birthday card using this adorable bear.

First, I stamped the bear and cupcake from the stamp set using alcohol friendly ink. I also stamped the banner from Panda Party. I colored them with Copic markers then used their coordinating dies to cut them out. Next, I used a stitched rectangle die to cut from white card stock and blue pattern paper from Critter Country paper pack. Then I used the largest Stitched Arch die to create the window on the white cardstock. 

I backed the white cardstock with double sided foam tape and mounted it on the blue paper. I also added foam tape behind the bear to give dimension. For the sentiment I stamped it on colored cardstock and cut it from the Brilliant Banner 1 die. I inked the edges with peacock feather distress oxide ink to add some contrast. To complete my card I adhered the banners, a scattering of iridescent stars, and diamond stickles on the cupcake for some sparkle. 

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day everyone!
