Rounded Rectangle Window Die Focused Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and in today’s fun Easter card I am using two sizes of the versatile Rounded Rectangle Window dies. As the name suggests these dies help you to create lots of different designs! I opted for two scenic windows using the sweet images from Clucky Chickens.

To start, I die cut a panel from blue striped paper (Striped Silly) with the outer die from Frilly Frames Chevron. Then I played around with different sizes of the Rounded Rectangle Window dies. I knew I wanted to use the big hen house and the scripty Happy Easter (Chickie Baby), so that was decisive in my choice of dies. After creating the two windows, I glued the striped panel to a white card base. With the dies still on my desk, I ran them again through the machine, this time using white card stock. These pieces are the backing for my scenes.

I took my Copic swatch chart to find a blue marker that was approximately the same tone as the lighter stripe of the paper. Now, I was able to draw a little hill on both panels to ground the images. For extra texture I dotted the sky parts of these pieces with the same marker.

After selecting my images from Clucky Chickens and Chickie Baby, I did all the coloring with  Copic markers. White gel pen details made the images pop even more.

Since I kept the inlay panels flat, it was easy to stamp the large sentiment from Chickie Baby in a brown ink from my stash. I glued both background panels in place and mounted the images with foam tape to the card. Adding a few Champagne Clear Jewels finishes this sweet project.

Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm so happy to be back on the blog with this bright and cheerful shaker card featuring some super cute chicks all gathered to celebrate Easter. Love those little guys and their chubby faces so much!

I started off by creating the whole shaker card base, and first cut a 4,5 x 3,5 inches Rounded Rectangle Mat panel out of a fun multicolored polka dot Summer Splash pattern paper, I cut two windows out of this panel using the third smallest Rounded Rectangle Window die, attached my panel to a piece of acetate and then trimmed the excess of acetate around my Rounded Rectangle Mat multicolored polka dot panel.

At the back of my multicolored polka dot panel, I added 2mm foam strips all around the windows and on the rest of the panel as well. I poured multicolored sequins into each window, removed the backing papers off the foam strips, and attached a Flirty Flowers green panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker panel totally.

I attached my shaker panel to a 5,25 x 4 inches Gingham Pastels pink panel using liquid glue, next to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Polka Dot Parade blue panel using liquid glue again, and then to a white card base to finish my shaker card base.

Next I stamped my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them all using the coordinating dies and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. As always, here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: Chickie Baby (for chicks, basket, flowers, eggshells), Chubby Bunny (for the banner, flowers), and Spring Showers (umbrellas).

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then attached them to my card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. And to finish it, I added glossy accents to the multicolored Chubby Bunny banner to make it super shiny. 

And that's it! I hope that you like this super cute and colorful Easter card. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time.

Cat Antics Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with a fun card to share with you showcasing these adorable kitties from the Cat Antics set. These sweet and playful kitties are just the cutest.

I stamped the images from the Cat Antics stamps set as well as the balloon bouquet from the Party Pets Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Cat Antics Dies and Party Pets Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Orange Cats: YR31/20/21/24/27, R00/20
Gray Cats: C00/0/1/3, R00/20
Brown Cats: E51/53/33, R00/20
Balloons: R22/24/27/29
Yarn: R22/24/27
Box: E40/41/42/43

For the layout, I used one of the dies from the Rounded Rectangle Windows Dies to diecut two windows into a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb cardstock. I stamped "sending" from the Holiday Hugs Stamps set and "pawsitive vibes" from the Cat Antics Stamps set directly onto the panel with black and red inks. I used the panel as a guide to ink blend a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock with Spun Sugar and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide inks. I used foam tape to adhere the two panels to each other.

I decorated the card front with the colored images using a combo of liquid adhesive and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. I adhered the panel to an A2 white card base and finished the card with a few Majestic Clear Confetti for some sparkle.

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

Rounded Rectangle Window Die Focused Card & Tag with Amanda

Welcome back to the Sunny Studio Stamps Blog! Amanda here, and I’m glad you’re here with me today! I’m sharing this adorable duo I created using the Rounded Rectangle Window Dies! Keep reading to see how I created this card and coordinating tag!

First, we’ll start with the card! I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 4”x5.25” and then taped the 4th largest rectangle in the center of the panel. I ran it through my die cutting machine.  

On a separate white cardstock panel, I stamped the background image from the Majestic Meadow Stamp. Then, I trimmed the stamped panel to fit in the opening of the window, including an extra 1/4” border. I was careful to leave the left side of the stamped image for my tag! Then, I stamped my sentiment.

I colored the background with Copic markers. Here are the colors I used:
Flowers: RV55, RV66, RV69
Grass: YG0000, YG00, YG01
Trees & Bushes: E43, E44, E47, E49, YG06, G07, G14

I glued this panel to an A2 card base in the center. On my window panel, I used double sided tape to attach a piece of acetate trimmed to 1/4” larger than the window. Then, I put foam tape strips all around the acetate to create a shaker pocket. I added extra foam tape strips on the border of the panel so it was the same depth all the way around.  

I placed a mixture of sequins in the center of my card base. Then, I carefully lined up my window panel and attached it to the card base, ensuring that the sequins stayed inside the shaker pocket.

Next, I stamped 2 foxes and and 2 birds from the Foxy Friends Stamps. I colored these with Copic markers, too.

I used these markers:
Birds: RV10,  RV52, RV55, Rv66, RV69, YR21, YR24
Foxes: YR20, YR21, YR24, YR27, E50, E53, R00, R20, R32, W8

Then, I cut the images out using the coordinating dies. I put 3D foam squares behind each of the images. I adhered the 2 birds and 1 fox to the card. I glued a few sequins from the my sequin mix to the front of the card as well.

For the tag, I cut the 4th largest Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies. I stamped the Background Basics 2 stamp with Catherine Pooler’s Pucker Up Ink onto this rectangle. I also die cut the 5th largest Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies. Then, I taped the 3rd smallest Rounded Rectangle Window Dies to the center of rectangle and put it through the die cutting machine to create a frame for my shaker.

On the leftover piece from the Majestic Meadow Stamp, I taped the same 3rd smallest Rounded Rectangle Window Die and ran it through my die cutting machine to get my background piece. I colored this background with the same Copic markers.

I punched a hole and added an eyelet with my Crop-a-dile Big Bite to my largest rectangle. To create the shaker, I folowed the same steps as I did for the card. I added some baker’s twine to finish the tag off!

The Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies and Rounded Rectangle Window Dies work so well together! I can’t wait to gift this card and tag to a FOXTASTIC friend! Thanks so much for coming by the blog today! Come back tomorrow for more inspo!

Rounded Rectangle Window Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here! Today I'm sharing a birthday themed shaker card. The Rounded Rectangle Window dies make it super easy to create a frame with faux stitching which can be used for shaker cards. 

I used the second largest Rounded Rectangle Window die in the set to create a frame for my shaker window. I constructed the shaker element in the traditional way by adding a panel of clear acetate behind the window. Then I added some skinny strips of foam tape behind all sides of the frame to create the shaker well.

Onto a white A2 size card base, I stamped the words "happy birthday" at an angle towards the left side. I used pastel clay sprinkles as the shaker bits and carefully placed them onto the center of the card. I then adhered the frame with acetate overtop. 

Next was the fun part of adding all the decorations to the outside of the shaker. I used cupcakes from the Scrumptious Cupcakes stamp set. I die cut some little flowers and leaves to embellish even further. These dies can be found in the Basic Mini Shapes 2 and Basic Mini Shapes 4 sets. 

Here are the Pink Fresh Studio ink colors I used to stamp the cupcakes and candle: Ocean Breeze, Aquamarine, Mermaid Cove, Soft Lilac, Candy Violet, Ballet Slipper, Sparkling Rose, Lemon Whip, Sunshine.
