Crisp Apple & Punny Apple Greetings Card with Nicky

Hello friends, this is Nicky with you today and I'm sharing a new friendship card with you that was created using products from the latest release, focusing on the Crisp Apple Dies, and paired with formerly released products which are great staples to have in your die collection.

I ink blended a white A2 panel of cardstock using 'Blush' ink by The Stamp Market. I then took another A2 panel and created two grass strips using the Mini Grass Border dies. I ink blended the grass with 'Gumdrop' ink by The Stamp Market and then I used the Picket Fence Die to create the white picket fence and I glued the grass and fence to the pink background and set it to one side.

I die cut white cardstock using the Tree Branch Die and ink blended it using Tea Dye and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks. This die cut was backed with a skinny strip of foam tape and applied to the background.

Next, I used the Crisp Apple Die and die cut the small apple image 6 times and created several leaves too. Leaves were ink blended with the same Gumdrop ink mentioned above and the red apples were done with 'Lipstick' ink by The Stamp Market.

Punny Apple Greetings was used to create both the sentiment and a smiley face on each of the apples, I then glued all the components together where necessary and backed with foam tape and applied them to the scene.

Last but not least I took three of the bird images from Little Birdie and stamped and coloured them. I used Copic markers in B24, B12, B41, BG0000, R000 to colour them and I blushed their cheeks with R22, R21, R20 and R00. I fussy cut the images and adhered them to the scene. Points were highlighted with a white gel pen and some daisies dotted in the grass then the whole panel was backed with white craft foam and applied to a fractionally bigger card base.

I certainly hope you enjoyed my happy little scene card and I'll see you again next Friday with something brand new.

Happy Howl-o-ween Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh. I am excited to be back on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today to share a slimline card and a pair of shaker tags featuring the Happy Howl-o-ween set from the latest release. These adorable pups are all dressed up and ready to head out to celebrate Halloween.

I stamped the images from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Happy Howl-o-ween Dies to diecut them out. I colored with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Dogs: E51/53/33/99, C00/1, R00/20, R22, C5
Pumpkins: Y35/38 YR04/07, C5
Hat: C3/5/7/9, Y38 YR04/07
Bones: E81/41 W3

For the background, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (8.5" x 3.5"). I created a homemade 3" mask by diecutting a piece of masking paper with a 3" circle die. INSIDE TIP: for smaller masks such as this one, I use a full-adhesive Post-It sticky note to make my masks. I applied the mask to the center of the slimline panel to create a moon. I ink blended the background with Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers, Prize Ribbon, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot Distress inks. Once the panel was dry, I splattered it with some Opaque White Copic ink that I slightly diluted with water. 

Next, I stamped one of the sentiments from the set with Versamark Watermark ink and heat embossed with some Fine Detail White Embossing Powder onto a piece of black cardstock (8.5" x 1.25"). I used the grassy edge die from the Picket Fence Die set to trim the upper edge of the strip. I adhered the strip to the bottom edge of the panel. I adhered the colored images before adhering the panel to a white cardbase (8.5' x 3.5").

I had a few colored images left so I decided to make some matching shaker tags for my card. i used the tag die with the window die attached from the Mini Mat & Tag 3 Die set to diecut 5 tags with the windows out of black cardstock, one solid tag (no window) out of clear acetate and one solid tag out of a patterned paper from the Polka Dot Parade Paper Pack for each tag. I stacked and adhered 4 black tags together with liquid adhesive. I added the clear acetate to the top before adhering the final layer of black tag. I added some of the colored bone images and sparkling clear sequins from my stash. I closed off the back with the layer of patterned paper tag. I repeated the same process for the second tag.

I stamped the sentiments from the same stamp set onto a 3/8" strip of white cardstock, trimmed it to the desired length and used a hole puncher to create the sentiment strip. I used some festive ribbon and twine to attach the strips to the tags. 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card and tags. Be sure to check out the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Summer Jar Mug Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here with you today, I'm thrilled to be sharing with you this lovely card featuring the jar from the Summer Jar Mug die set from the Summer 2024 release. I have so many ideas of cards to make with this new die set, and the first that came to my mind was this ladybug themed card with ladybug fairies, because I like to use them for all the seasons and for any theme. If you missed them, here are the previous Garden Fairy cards I made: Bee Fairies, Halloween Fairies, Night Fairies, Holiday Fairies.

I started off by cutting a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I entirely covered with saltwater taffy oxide inks, with a little bit of festive berries oxide ink on the edges. To create a ladybug pattern, I used a bubble stencil from my stash along with black soot oxide ink to make black dots all over my panel. I splattered water on my piece of paper and dried it using a paper towel, mixed some festive berries oxide ink with water and added more splatters on my panel using a small brush, and then did the same with black soot oxide ink and with copic opaque white ink.

Next I cut another 5,5 x 4,25 inches bristol panel, cut two grass borders out of it using a Picket Fence Border die, and colored both of them using shabby shutters and mowed lawn oxide inks. I mixed some rustic wilderness oxide ink with water, and used my small brush again to make splatters on the grass borders, and did the same with copic opaque white ink.

I stamped all my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, cut them using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and Graph'it brush markers. 

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Garden Fairy - two fairies • Garden Critters - ladybugs and leaves • Special Day - heart • Love Birds - flowers • Little Birdie - branches • Bunnyville - grass, butterflies, tulips • Outback Critters - small branch • Seasonal Trees - log

Next I worked on my shaker Summer Jar Mug, and started off by cutting the different pieces: one holographic jar frame for the front, one whole acetate jar, one whole pearlescent vellum jar for the back, and two white jar frames to create dimension inside the jar. I first attached some images directly on the pearlescent jar using liquid glue, making sure to leave enough space on the edges to attach the jar later on. I attached the acetate jar at the back of the holographic jar frame using liquid glue. Next I stuck both white jar frames to the acetate using liquid glue again. Poured some iridescent confetti inside the jar, and finally glued the pearlescent jar to close my shaker jar.

I attached everything on my ladybug panel, starting with the grass borders using 1mm foam squares. Next I stuck the jar using liquid glue at the bottom and 1mm foam squares at the top. And then I attached all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, leaving enough space on the top left hand corner for my white heat embossed "You make my heart flutter" greeting from Garden Critters.

Finally I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, applied white blizzard nuvo drops to the fairies wings to make them shine, and glued a tiny red clay heart next to my greeting for a last touch of cuteness. 

And that's it! I hope you like this new card, I had so much fun making it, and I can't wait to share more cards with the amazing Summer Jar Mug. See you next week!

Big Bunny Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm very happy to be back on the blog with this lovely Easter card featuring the adorable Big Bunny and cute chickie friends. Another colorful card just as I like them to be!

I started off by stamping all my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I used the matching dies to cut them all, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and my Graph'it brush markers. And as very often, I mixed and matched images from different sets:

• Big Bunny for the bunny, Easter basket, bow

• Chickie Baby for the chicks, bunny ears, eggs

• Chubby Bunny for the chocolate bunnies, flowers, banner, egg

• Bunnyville for a flower

For my background, I cut a few pieces, starting with a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Spring Fever floral panel that I attached on a white card base. Next I cut a light brown woodgrain scalloped rectangle using the Frilly Frames Hexagon main die, and cut an opening out of it using the second Stitched Rectangle die in order to create a frame.

I also cut a grass border out of a Spring Fever green polka dot paper using a Picket Fence Border die, attached that grass border at the back of my frame at the very bottom using 1mm foam squares, and then stuck my whole frame on the card base using 2mm foam squares. I attached everything on the card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, and added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen. 

And that's it! I hope you like this bright and happy little card. I'm wishing you a very happy Easter weekend if you celebrate it. Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next week.
