Embossing Folder Focused Cards with Juliana and Angelica

Hello Sunny Studio Friends! It's Juliana and today I'm here to share a quick and easy card you can create using the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder and Santa's Stocking Dies.

I began with the stocking from the Santa's Stocking Dies and cut it from red cardstock. I then embossed it using the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder. Next, I took a black dye ink pad and rubbed it gently over the raised part of the embossed design to make the stocking red and black. You might want to practice this technique on a scrap of embossed paper first, but the main thing to keep is mind is that you don't really push down so much as rub it across the paper.

To decorate the stocking, I cut the trim and heel/toe pieces from Therm O Web Deco Foil Flock Transfer Sheets in White Latte for a bit of texture and interest. For the finishing touch I added a poinsettia created using the Layered Poinsettia Die. I happened to have an extra one laying around so it came in handy for making this card come together quickly. You might look around your stash of die cuts and embellishments for something you can add to your stocking!

You might be asking how I made the card base in the shape of the stocking. To do this, take a piece of cardstock cut to 4.25 x 11 inches and fold it in half. Place the stocking die so that the top edge of the die is over the edge of the fold. That way when you cut the paper it will keep the fold for the card intact. Then just run the piece through your die cut machine and voilá you have a stocking shaped card!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this Christmas card inspiration using the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder and Santa's Stocking Dies.

Hi friends! Angelica here, and I have a new card to share with you today. I used the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder to bring color and texture to this cheerful Thank You card.

I taped white card stock to the inside of the embossing folder, then rubbed Wendy Vecchi Garden Patina Blendable Dye Ink on the other side of the folder. I ran it through my die-cut machine, then repeated the process two more times. Once finished, I trimmed the panel to a square, and attached it to a card front I had die-cut with Frilly Frames Retro Petals stitched rectangle. I used Sunflower Fields stamp set to stamp the sunflower and sentiment. I attached everything together, and attached the card front to a card base with foam adhesive. 

Inks used on sunflower and leaves: Altenew Buttercream, Warm Sunshine, Caramel Toffee, Paper Bag; Altenew Frayed Leaf, Forest Glades, Evergreen. 

Thanks so much for joining me today. I hope I have helped with ideas using embossing folders.

Embossing Folder Focused Cards with Franci and Ana

Hi there! Franci here with you today, with a fun pastel winter card showcasing lots of the new Sunny Studio products.

I started by making my card base out of white cardstock as always, then I also cut out a smaller panel and I embossed it with the new Woodgrain Embossing folder. This effect is amazing, I was waiting for the perfect woodgrain texture and here it is!

Then I stamped, colored with Copics and die cut lots of images from these sets: Scenic Route + coordintaed dies, Hogs and Kisses + coordinated dies, Feeling Frosty and Santa Claus Lane + coordinated dies. I stamped all the snowmen inside the speech bubbles and achieved a clean look by masking just the bottom edge of the bubbles, but you can also die cut the snowmen with their coordinated dies and glue them on top for an alternative look :)

I glued everything down with liquid glue + foam tape and added a little stripe of this beautiful rainbow striped paper from the new Very Merry 6x6 Paper pack. Then I also added a thin strip of pink flock to give my card a fun fuzzy feeling. Finally I added some white Nuvo Drops here and there as embellishments.

Hope you like my card and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello friends! Ana here today with a card featuring beautiful brand new Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder! I have decided to dress up today’s card as a holiday present and the Buffalo Plaid embossing folder gave me the perfect look and texture.

I created red background panel by die cutting patterned paper from new Very Merry 6x6 paper pack with Frilly Frames Lattice scalloped outline die. I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 3 x 4 ¼ ‘’, embossed it with Buffalo Plaid embossing folder and added two strips of the same red patterned paper I used for the background. 

Next, I adhered embossed panel to the red background with foam tape. I heat embossed the sentiment (from Holiday Style stamp set) onto a small vellum tag (from Wrap Around Box Dies set) then out of gold glitter paper, die cut the bow (from Santa’s Stocking Dies). I added the tag and bow to the front of the card then adhered completed panel to A2 size card base and my holiday present card was finished!

Thank you for stopping by today and spending some time with us - I really hope you like today’s project and got inspired! I’ll see you next week and until then - Happy Crafting!

Stitched Felt Santa's Stocking with Eloise

Hello friends, Eloise here and today I have a stitched felt stocking to share with you all using the Santa's Stocking die set. 

To start off my stocking today I die cut two stockings and the bow from red felt, the top, heel and toe piece from white felt and the holly leaves from green felt. I then used some white thread and stitched through the sides of the stocking, leaving the top piece open.

A tip here is to pierce the holes with a paper piercer first, so it's easier to stitch though two layers of felt.

Now that my stocking is stitched, I went ahead and adhered my white pieces into place with glue. I then pierced through another hole at the top of the stocking for the twine. I threaded it through and tied it in a knot. 

Lastly, I added the holly leaves and bow on the top for added interest. Now the stocking is complete and perfect for adding in any small gifts. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did making it and I can't wait to make more! See you next time.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Merry Christmas Cards with Isha Gupta

Hello everyone! It’s Isha Gupta here, and I am so excited to be here as a guest designer today. I’m sharing four cards with you all using the new release products. I used The Christmas Trimmings stamp set along with the coordinating dies Eskimo Kisses stamp set, Cable Knit embossing folder and the Santa's Stocking dies.

For my first card, I went for a CAS style. I created a mask using a heart shape, masked and sponged some distress inks to it. I then applied some snow through a stencil and let it dry.

Meanwhile, I stamped the cute images from the Eskimo Kisses stamp set and colored them in using Copic markers. I then cut them and adhered them to the card. I then stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Trimmings stamp set. Finally, I adhered three die cut snowflakes.

Still keeping the CAS style, I went for a complete watercolor card using the Christmas Trimmings stamp set. This set is so versatile, it has GORGEOUS layering stamps, which I will be sharing on a later card. 

Here I simply stamped the pine needles and the berries using dye inks and watercolors. Love the effect on this one. 

Since, I am enjoying both the stamp sets, I used them both here and created a watercolor scene. 

This time I added a bit of embossing glitter to the pine needles. Love these cute Eskimo Kisses images :)

I decided to go for a shaped card as this Santa's Stocking die is just the perfect size. I die-cut it and then stamped, colored the girl image. I then run it through my big shot using the Cable Knit embossing folder. 

I die-cut the rest of the layering parts using a light blue cardstock and adhered it to the stocking. I then stamped the holly leaves using all the three layers. The layering is amazing, it gives such a wonderful results.

I really love the new release as it is so super adorable and versatile too. I had so much fun playing with the both sets, even using them together on a card. Thank you Mendi for having me.
