Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Linda van Wely

Hi everyone! Linda here today from Stampin with Liz Design! I'm so excited to be a guest designer at Sunny Studio Stamps!

For my first project I am sharing an adorable card with you all today that I created with the amazing Passionate Penguins stamp set!

I started this card with a white card base in A2 size on which I added a front panel. I used a scalloped stitched die for my panel and then blended a fun background on this piece. I used different colours of Ranger Distress Oxide ink and a cloud stencil to blend with.

I then added loads of splatters to my background, which I love doing! It makes a background so much more fun! I then stamped, die-cut and coloured the super cute penguins from the stamp set. Aren't they adorable driving their car?

For my next card I created this fun underwater scene with the amazing Sea You Soon stamp set!

I started this card with a white card base in A2 size and then added a front panel, which I die-cut with a Wonky Stitched die. I then blended a fun background on this piece, using different colours of Ranger Distress Oxide ink. I created a mask, using the amazing Bursting Hearts die!

After blending my background, I added some white splatters to make it a bit more fun. I added the fun sentiment 'Sea you soon' at the bottom of the ocean and then added the fun underwater critters from the Sea You Soon stamp set!

Thank you so much for watching today!

Quilted Heart Die Focused Card & Bookmarks with Anja and Marine

Hi everyone, Anja here with you today sharing a love themed card created with the Quilted Hearts Portrait Die.

First, I made a regular A2 card base from white cardstock. I did some ink blending on another white cardstock panel using Distress Oxide Inks (Picked Raspberry, Kitsch Flamingo, Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar andTattered Rose). For some texture, I randomly splattered on water droplets and lifted off the color with a paper towel. I let it dry before running it through my diecutting machine with the Quilted Hearts Portrait Die.

Next, I stamped two birds and the tree branch from the Little Birdie set in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images which I then adhered with foam tape.

The big scripty sentiment from the Lovey Dovey set was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I heat embossed it with WOW! Metallic Brass Sparkle Embossing Glitter. I really like that there are coordinating dies to cut out the sentiments for a finished look. Finally, I popped up with foam tape as well.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a lovely day!

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm glad to be back on the blog with this trio of cute and colorful Valentine bookmarks showcasing the new Quilted Hearts Portrait die.

I started by stamping the images using an alcohol marker friendly black ink: a crocodile from Outback Critters, a cow from Barnyard Buddies, a shark from Sea You Soon, and several hearts from Fabulous Flamingos, and I colored everything using my alcohol markers.

I chose three pattern papers from the Dots & Stripes Pastels paper pack, and cut three Quilted Hearts Portrait panels. And then from those three panels, I cut three mini slimline panels.

And to make the back of those bookmarks pretty, I cut more mini slimline panels: three white panels and I stuck one behind each quilted heart panel + three colored panels and I attached one at the back of each white panel to get a nice and pretty finish. And between the white panel and the colored panel, I slid a piece of ribbon to create a handle at the top of each bookmark.

I white heat embossed some words on black cardstock, trimmed them to create small banners, and I also cut letters using the Chloe Alphabet die set to create the phrases: "You croc my world", "I love moo" and "I chews you". And I cut three banners using a die from the Stitched Rectangle die set. And then I stuck all the elements on the bookmarks using foam squares and liquid glue.

As always I added highlights on the images using a white gel pen, and the last final touch was to add glossy accents on the hearts to make them shine and pop even more. And that's it. I hope that you like those three fun and colorful Valentine bookmarks. To watch the video tutorial, click on the image above. Thanks for stopping by, and see you next time!

Icing Border Die Focused Cards with Audrey and Vanessa

Hello friends! Audrey here! Today, I have a fun card to share with you that uses the Icing Borders in a unconventional way! 

To create my card, I started off with a piece of watercolor paper cut to 4" x 5.25". I used Distress ink in Salty Ocean to watercolor an underwater background. I die cut a piece of kraft cardstock with the Slimline Nature Borders dies, then inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide before splattering the entire panel with watered down white acrylic paint. Then, I stamped and colored the adorable shark from the Sea You Soon stamp set, and die cut him with the coordinating Sea You Soon Dies. I used images from the Best Fishes stamp set to decorate the ocean floor, and die cut them with the coordinating Best Fishes Dies. 

I popped all of the images up with foam tape, then used the Icing Borders dies cut from white cardstock to add waves all around them. I cut them smaller to fit in the spaces around the shark. I stamped a sentiment from the Best Fishes stamp set on a white banner and popped that up at the top of the panel, then adhered the panel to an A2 card base. To finish off my card, I added some white gel pen accents and a scattering of tiny bubbles.

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a winter card using the Icing Border Dies.

I started with a white cardstock panel and stamped the penguins from the Penguin Pals set. Now I masked the images and die-cut the borders from masking paper. After I had adhered the masks to the panel, I inked the background using Tumbled Glass, Victorian Velvet and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks. Then I removed the masks, colored the images, added snow with a white gel pen and adhered the panel to the card base.

Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Feeling Frosty onto a strip of cardstock, notched one edge and adhered it to the card.

I hope you like today's inspiration! Thanks for visiting and happy weekend :)

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Wanda Guess

Hi everyone! Wanda Guess here! I'm always happy and excited to be the guest designer on the Sunny Studio Blog! I'm so delighted to work with the beautiful and fun stamps and dies from Sunny Studio! I'm in love with this awesome new release. I mean who doesn't love hot air balloons and otters?! I had so much fun creating two cards to share with you today. Lots of color and lots of cuteness! Please visit me on my blog sometime! You can find me over at A Blog Called Wanda, and on Instagram. Let's get started with the creativity! 

First up is this adorable otter couple, swimming around hanging out with each other! I'm going to save this card for my husband for his anniversary card! This finished card is a 5" x 5" square card, made from white cardstock. I used the Stitched Semi Circle dies to create a frame for the waves and sea kelp. I built my card around the semi circle. 

I used a layer of brown striped paper to match the brown otters. All the images were stamped and die cut with the matching dies and then colored with Copic Markers. I used the My Otter Half, Best Fishes, and Sea You Soon stamp sets to create my ocean scene. I couldn't resist the urge to add one little happy fish jumping out of the water too! 

The sentiment was heat embossed with white onto black cardstock. Everything was assembled using foam dots for dimension. I also really like to use a white gel pen to add accents over my Copic coloring. I splattered a bit of white paint to mimic ocean foam. I am all about the little details. One tiny red heart too! The sentiments in the My Otter Half stamp set are the best!! I love you like no otter!! 

This next card is a big card! But it will fit into a 5x7 envelope! I needed some big card real estate to create my hot air balloon scene. Gosh, I wish I was with that bear right now, swaying over the pretty green hills. This finished card is a 4.5" x 7" size, made from white cardstock. I layered a bit of lime green cardstock, and then a layer of white for my scene. 

I stamped and die cut out the images and colored them all with Copic Markers. I used the Country Scenes, Balloon Rides, and Plane Awesome stamp sets. They all work so nicely together. I went with a rainbow color scheme for the balloon and banner. I love using these bright, cheerful colors. I tucked that sweet bear into the basket and made him floating in some big fluffy clouds. 

There are two layers of clouds and they were edged with Diamond Stickles Glitter Glue. The card was assembled with foam tape for dimension and layers. Can't wait to send out this note of encouragement.

Big thanks to Mendi for having me as a guest! I'm very blessed that she always invites me back! Take care and happy crafting!
