Pathway Home Card with Jarle

Hi friends! Jarle here, and I am happy to be back with another Sunny Studio Stamps project. This time, I am using the new Pathway Home stamp set. This stamp set has it all: a whole background and some adorable little images. This takes all of the guess work out of creating a card! For my project today, I chose a Fall theme, but I think this set would be perfect for Spring and Summer as well! 

I started by stamping the background of the Pathway Home set onto Transotype Perfect Coloring paper, since I wanted to do some Copic Coloring. Since I had my Misti stamping tool out, I stamped some little images as well, like the squirrels and LOTS of apples. I did include the cluster of apples out of the Truckloads of Love stamp set as well. I wanted the trailer to carry loads and loads of apples :-) 

Here you can find a list of all the colors I used for my coloring:
- Squirrels: E44/E43/E42/E41/E000
- Apples: G24/G21/G20 & R29/R24/R22
- Roof: R89/R39/R27/R24
- Grass: G20
- Tree trunks: E37/E35/E33/E31
- Trailer: YR18/YR15/Y15
- Rocks & parts of the house: N4/N2/N0 
- House: N0/C00/0
- Pathway: T0
- Fence: E47/E33/E31/E30

After that, I die cut my images with the coordinating dies and trimmed my panel to about 4,25 by 4,25. I also ink blended a panel of Neenah cardstock (with the same size) with Distress Oxides in Fossilized Amber, Ripe Persimmon and Candied Apple. I added a few water splatters (mixed with Perfect Pearls). I adhered my colored background panel onto the ink blended panel. 

I wanted a nice frame around my card, so I die cut the largest square out of the Scalloped Square 1 Large die set out of Spellbinders Pomegranate cardstock. I glued down my card panel onto that scalloped square. After that I adhered my different images on my scene. Some were popped up for dimension and others were adhered directly onto the card.  

I stamped a sentiment from the Truckloads of Love set ('Happy Fall Wishes') on black cardstock, using Versamark ink. I sprinkled on some white embossing powder and heat set it with my heat gun. I trimmed it to size and popped it up on my panel with a foam strip. Finally, I put my square card onto a white card base.

This card is giving me all the Fall vibes and I love it! Have a beautiful day!

Sunflower Fields Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and since we are enjoying plenty of sunny days what better card to make than this one with the beautiful Sunflower Fields stamp and die set. 

I started this project by creating the flowers and leaves using my packaging sheet as a guide since this is a layering set. After selecting my ink colors, stamping multiple images is easy when you have all the white die cuts ready. 

A square design is a good match for any cluster of blooms, so after making a white square card base, I added another white layer with the largest of the Scalloped Square 2 Small dies. Then I switched to a white panel made with the Zig Zag Circle dies. My focal panel is a plain Stitched Circle Small from a bright pink paper (Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones). 

Now I was ready to place the flowers and leaves as a cluster in the left bottom corner of the card with thin foam tape. Since this card has a lot of layers, I wanted a clean and simple sentiment (Country Carnival) stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink on a white strip. Finally, I added a few Champagne Clear Jewels for a bit of sparkle!

How would you arrange these pretty flowers on your card? I am curious to see your creations! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Mermaid Kisses Tags with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing some Pastel Mermaid shaker tags featuring Mermaid Kisses stamp set.

For each tag, I die-cut the Scalloped Square Large die set three times from colored cardstock. One piece was used as the background, one to create the frame by die-cutting the center with the Stitched Square die, and the last piece was used to neatly finish the ribbon on the back of the tag.

Before assembling the shaker, I first placed the frame onto the background so I could see exactly where to stamp the sentiment without it disappearing behind the frame. I stamped each sentiment in a matching shade to the cardstock color for a soft look.

Next, I adhered a piece of acetate behind the frame. I then added foam tape around the edges, filled the center with glitter, and attached everything onto the background panel to create the shaker element.

On the back of the tag, I adhered a piece of ribbon. To give the back a clean and finished look, I used the final die-cut scalloped piece to cover and secure the ribbon onto the back of the tag. That completed the base of the tags.

After that, I stamped the images from the Mermaid Kisses stamp set and colored them with my Ohuhu markers, added highlights with a white gel pen and adhered the mermaids onto the finished shaker tags.

I absolutely love how soft, sparkly, and magical these pastel mermaid tags turned out! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Sweet As Can Bee Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and as our garden is coming in full bloom it was great fun to make a card featuring the adorable Sweet As Can Bee stamp and die set. This set is just so cute and I love all the different images it contains for so many design options!

Having the beehive as a centrepiece, I opted for a white square card base. On top, I layered another white piece cut with the largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Small dies.
Before adhering, I created a focal point with the second largest of the Stitched Semi-Circle dies. To add a bit more detail to this piece, I used a stencil from my stash and some Distress Oxides in the shades of Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey to mimic the structure of a honeycomb.

I set this panel aside to let it dry while I worked on my images for this project. From the Sweet As Can Bee stamp I selected three sunflowers and bees, the beehive and some leaves. To anchor my design I went with the tree branch from the cute Love Birds set. I love a brown, yellow and purple combo so those where the Copic Markers I used today.

Before assembling the card, I placed all my elements inside the semi-circle to decide which sentiment I could use. Instead of adding a banner strip, I decided to stamp the phrase directly on my panel with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I also added a little bee trail for extra cuteness!

Now I was ready to build the scene, starting with the tree branch and leaves. Next I used some foam tape to add the beehive, bees and sunflowers. As always I added some bling for that extra detail (Pastel Jewels Mix).

This set is so cute and I am sure you will enjoy creating sweet cards with these images! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

My Otter Half Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and since it had been a while I decided to make a fun shaker card! The focal point of this project is an adorable couple from the My Otter Half stamp and die set.

For today’s card I made a white square card and added a teal layer cut from one of the Sweater Weather papers. Yes, this is a Fall themed paper pack but I feel the darker teal is a great match for my cute brown otters (also very snug and cozy, I made this card on a rainy day in Spring, hence the need to feel that way!).

After cutting the panel with the second largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies, I created the shaker window with one of the Stitched Circle Small dies.

A piece of clear acetate slightly smaller than my teal piece was glued to the back with strong double sided tape. Next, I created the shaker well with thick strips of foam tape, I removed the protective backer first to add the tape as close as possible to the circle shape.

Now comes the fun part, which is filling the shaker with sequins in clear and teal colors. to close the shaker, I simply added a square piece of teal paper to back. I glued this whole piece to the card base with liquid glue.

My cute couple from the My Otter Half stamp was colored with Copic markers in shades of brown. The sentiment was taken from the Words Of Gratitude set and stamped on a scalloped white banner with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I placed this banner on the bottom edge of the shaker and added the cute couple so their tails overlap with the white sentiment strip. This connects the elements of this design in a fun way.  Of course this card needed a bit of bling so I sprinkled a few Aquamarine Jewels around the shaker frame.

This set is so cute and I am sure you will make the most adorable cards with these otters! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Two Scoops Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing a summer card featuring the Two Scoops stamp set.   

For this card, I started by creating the base using a soft salmon-colored cardstock and die-cutting it with the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies. Then I created the white scalloped frame by die-cutting the same scalloped die from white cardstock and cutting out the center with the Stitched Square die.

Next, I die-cut the leaves  from light green cardstock using the Jungle Vine dies. To give both the salmon background and the green leaves a little extra dimension, I softly blended some ink onto them. After that, I adhered the leaves onto the salmon background and layered the white frame on top.

For the focal image, I stamped the Big Bunny along with the little hat and some flowers from the Big Panda stamp set and I colored everything with my Ohuhu markers.

Then it was time for the ice cream using the Two Scoops stamp set! Thanks to the layering stamps, the ice cream gets such beautiful detail. For the final stamp layer, I stamped it twice. Besides using a darker ink color, I also stamped over it with embossing ink and added some glitter embossing powder for extra sparkle. I placed the ice cream into the bunny’s hands and adhered it onto the card and stamp the sentiment.

To finish everything off, I added some highlights with a white gel pen and a neon yellow gel pen. I really love how the soft tropical colors and the sparkly ice cream give this card such a fun summer vibe.

Card done, ready to send joy! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.
