Pink Peonies Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm thrilled to be back on the blog with this monochromatic Halloween card featuring black peonies and spiders. I mostly like to create Halloween cards with cute critters, but when I colored the Pink Peonies back in April (you can check the card right here) I knew I would color them again in black to make a monochromatic card.

I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them using the coordinating dies and then colored them using my Graph'it brush markers in shades of grey: dark shades for the peonies and spiders, and lighter shades for the leaves. The peonies and leaves are from Pink Peonies, the spiders and spider webs are from Too Cute To Spook, and I usually add details to my images with a white gel pen, but this time I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and used a slim brush to add white splatters to the flowers and leaves, and only added white gel pen details to the spiders.

I cut a 5,25 x 4 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel, ran it through my die cutting machine along with my Buffalo Plaid Diagonal die, covered the entire panel with hickory smoke oxide ink, and used the Diagonal Stripes stencil along with black soot oxide ink to add a nice pattern to my panel. Next I mixed black soot oxide ink with water and added black splatters to my panel, I did the same with copic opaque white ink and then with iron gate mica spray for sparkling details. And once my panel was dry, I attached it to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches black panel.

Next I cut a large Scalloped Oval Mat 1 panel out of black cardstock, used the largest Stitched Oval 2 die to cut an opening out of it and this way created a scalloped frame. I used the largest Stitched Oval 2 die again to cut a Subtle Grey Tones woodgrain panel, added black splatters to it, attached both the black frame and grey panel together using tape at the back, and stamped "Happy Halloween" from Too Cute To Spook right in the middle of that panel. I added 1mm foam tape at the back, attached it to my Buffalo Plaid Diagonal panel, and then stuck all my images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. 

And that's it! I really love the elegant and monochromatic style of this card, and I hope that you like the unusual look. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Pink Peonies Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with a floral card showcasing the absolutely gorgeous Pink Peonies set.

I stamped the images from the Pink Peonies stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Pink Peonies Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers.

COPIC COLORS:
Flowers: RV000/10/21/13/14, Y02
Leaves: YG01/03/17

For the background, I took a piece of Neenah white cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and lightly ink blended the center with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. Next, I took another piece of Neenah white cardstock and trimmed it with the Frilly Frames Stripes Die. I adhered the two panels to each other.

For the sentiment, I stamped the Hello sentiment from the Big Panda Stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the coordinating Big Panda Dies to diecut it out.

I adhered the colored images onto the panel using a combination of liquid adhesive and foam squares for dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to an A2 white card base (4.25" x 5.5"). I finished the card with a few Majestic Clear Confetti.

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

Pink Peonies & Frilly Frames Floral Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share some floral-themed cards for Summer using our fabulous Pink Peonies Stamps.

For my first card using the Pink Peonies Stamps, I stamped them using VersaFine Onyx Black ink onto watercolor paper, which I then heat-embossed with clear embossing powder to prevent them from smearing.  I then colored my flowers and leaves using Caran D'Ache watercolor pencils and blended them with water and a paintbrush, working from the lightest to darkest spots. When it comes to watercolors, I'm always a mess about staying in the lines so to keep things looking clean, I chose to fussy cut the images. 

My aqua tone-on-tone background was created using our Frilly Frames Quatrefoil Dies, which I layered from behind with the same color to create the look of embossing and to keep things less busy for my greeting. I love the subtle texture it adds! For my greeting, I used the word die from our Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies with the white heat-embossed word "birthday" from our Plane Awesome Stamps (although we have this word in so many different sets of ours). Finally, I embellished my card with some scattered Crystalline Sky Blue jewels to add a little glitter and shine to my card.

For my second card using the Pink Peonies Stamps, I knew I wanted to color these peonies using a no-line coloring technique with my Copic Markers. Still, it's not the quickest coloring method available, so I limited my card to just three flower blossoms. I used a small mini pack of Memento Dew Drop inks in Angel Pink & New Sprout to have my stamp outlines disappear with my coloring. For my background, I layered our Frilly Frames Chevron Dies cut from black cardstock over a smaller piece of white cardstock to back the openings and an A2-size panel of coordinating pink cardstock. Last, for my sentiment, I stamped "You're My Favorite" from the Lovey Dovey Stamps using Hero Arts Ultra Pink Ink.

That wraps up my projects for this morning. I hope I've inspired you in your own cardmaking and that you spread a little happiness by sending out a card to a loved one today.💛

Pink Peonies Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today’s card layout is very versatile, it can be used for so many occasions. But since I am always in need of birthday cards, that is what I made! 

When I started my card making journey, I was a bit afraid of ‘flower arrangements’ and how to style them. I found that using the flowers as a center point with any kind of frame is always a winning combination. The beautiful Pink Peonies stamp and die set is great for these type of cards because it contains several shapes and sizes of peonies, making it easier for us to compose stunning bouquets.

After creating a square card base, I cut a panel with the biggest of the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies from white card stock. To add texture, I embossed it with the Buffalo Plaid Embossing folder and splattered the piece with Wilted Violet and Villainous Potion Distress Oxides.

While that was drying, I worked on my ‘frame’ element of the card. The Fancy Frames Circle dies are a perfect match for this square card. I cut them from a sheet of lilac Gingham Pastels and glued them directly to the card panel with liquid glue.

Next, it was time to create the flower centerpiece. I decided to stamp all the flowers and the leaves in this set and colored them in green, pink, and lilac shades with my Copics. Adding shadows with a darker maker and highlights with a white gel pen.

My sentiment was chosen from the Party Pets set and I love that it comes with a matching die! I stamped the ‘Happy Birthday’ with Versafine Onyx Black ink and cut two extra layers to make it very sturdy. After placing this sentiment on the top right of the circle, I could start to arrange my peonies and leaves. I opted for the three largest flowers, and they fill the circle perfectly. Finally, I sprinkled a few Silver Jewels to finish this card.

I can’t wait to see your creations with this beautiful flower stamp! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Pink Peonies Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm happy to be back with this lovely mix & match of new and less new items. It's always nice to use our older sets and pair them with new images to give them some love.

I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them using the coordinating dies and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. I've only used two stamp sets on this card: Pink Peonies for the flowers and leaves, and Foxy Friends for the foxes, watering can and birds. And once everything was colored, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.

I cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth, and used the Buffalo Plaid Straight die to add texture to my panel. I wanted my panel to match with the Pink Peonies, so I covered it with spun sugar oxide ink first, and then added a gingham pattern using the Straight Stripes stencil along with worn lipstick oxide ink. I splattered water all over the panel and dried it with a paper towel, mixed some worn lipstick distress spritz with water and added more splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink and with festive berries oxide ink. Next I cut a Frilly Frame Lattice panel out of white cardstock, attached it to my Buffalo Plaid Straight panel using 1mm foam squares, and then stuck all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

For the greeting, I started off by cutting both pieces of my Brilliant Banner 3 out of vellum, white heat embossed "Thinking of you" from Watering Can on the main vellum piece, attached that main vellum piece to the back element using liquid glue, and then attached the banner to my panel using clear foam squares. I finally glued some clear droplets here and there to bring some shine to the card, and that's it! 

I hope that this card has inspired you to shop your old stash and mix your products with new ones. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time.
