I love how all these sets worked so well together! Mendi's adorable mix-and-match critters have always been my favourite and I featured the bunny here. She's over-seeing the Easter preparations and has two little chick helpers!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Sending My Love Valentine's Day Banner With Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today. I'm sharing a Valentine's Day banner using Sending My Love. This set has so many fun little critters, and this time I decided to use the little bunny. I also included the little mail box, some hearts, and a sentiment. All you need in one set! Let's get started on how to create this fun banner.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sending My Love Valentine's Day Banner by Lindsey Sams.

To begin I cut the banner pieces using some Doodlebug Design Valentines paper. I cut six large banners and four small banners from patterned paper. I cut an additional two small banners from white card stock to do my stamping on. 

I cut four stitched circles from red and the word "love" from white card stock. I adhered the white letters onto the red circles. Then I attached the red circles to the small patterned paper banners using foam tape.

Next, I stamped my images onto the small white banners and colored them using Copic markers. Once all the small banners were finished, I threaded some Valentine twine through the two top holes for decoration. Finally, I attached the small banners to the larger ones and strung them together using more Valentines twine.

That's it! I love how this sweet banner turned out. It will make a perfect decoration to hang on the mantel for Valentine's Day. I hope you'll check out this adorable set and create your own decorative banner. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Comfy Creatures Celebrate the Holidays with Video by Emily

Sunny Studio Stamps: Comfy Creatures & Merry Sentiments Eat, Drink & Be Merry Christmas Card by Emily Leiphart.

Today, I used four stamp sets and a stand-alone die to create a festive party! Oh, how I love those Comfy Creatures! I wanted to create a little family that mimics the Minecraft costumes my family made for Halloween. Since there was no beaver, I used the bear from Sending My Love. I almost drew in a couple of big teeth. LOL My son was a koala bear for his third Halloween and he used to call himself our little koala bear so that's what I used for him. Naturally, I'm a panda! ;)

Since I didn't have the coordinating dies for Sending My Love, I used the panda head die and it worked very well. I know that the koala bear isn't wearing any clothes but my son is loving his winter mittens and gloves right now so I figured it looked enough like gloves to work. Plus, the drumstick looked odd sitting there without hands holding it.

The stamped part of the sentiment is from Merry Sentiments. I layered the glitter gold Merry Word Die with two layers of craft-a-board to give it dimension to match the critters.

The food items are from Summer Picnic and they work so well for this festive scene! All of the stamping was done with Versafine Onyx Black pigment ink and heat embossed with sparkle clear embossing powder. It adds glitter without making a mess! I used washes of colour in the background that mimics the colours I used to colour the critter family.

Merry Sentiments and Festive Friends with Emily

Sunny Studio Stamps: Merry Sentiments & Sending My Love Cat & Dog Christmas Card by Emily Leiphart.

Hi, everyone! Today, I'm sharing a card using the Merry Sentiments mini stamp set. I created a two-line sentiment to frame this festive couple from Sending My Love. After heat embossing and watercolouring with distress inks, I fussy cut the animal heads, bodies and their gifts. The heads and gifts are popped up with foam tape.

The sentiments were first heat embossed on watercolour cardstock. Then I gave a two-colour wash with a large, flat brush, and added bright yellow and black splatter.  I die cut several snowflakes from Santa's Helpers Dies and strategically adhered them to cover up some smudges at the top of the card.

Welcome New Design Team Member Emily Leiphart!

Please help me in welcoming a new member to our creative team: the talented Emily Leiphart!  I'm thrilled she agreed to share her talents with us and I know you're going to fall in love with her adorable designs as much as I have!  I asked Emily to share a bit about herself today, along with a card showing off her fun style.  I'm so excited to see more!

Sunny Studio Stamps:  Introducing New Design Team Member Emily Leiphart

Hi!  I’m married to a bicycle designer and have a very energetic eight-year-old son who has made numerous appearances in my videos!  I have a background in corporate research but I’m also an accomplished makeup artist so I still draw a lot of my inspiration from the fashion world.

I'm so excited to be joining Sunny Studio Stamps as a design team member! I love fun, quirky stamps and Mendi's illustrations are perfect for me. Of all the stamps currently in the Sunny Studio collection, my favourites are the critters with mix-and-match heads and bodies. I had to use the silly raccoon for today's card.

Sunny Studio Stamps:  Woodsy Creatures & Sending My Love Fall Card by Emily Leiphart

To create my scene, I picked the two main images; the mailbox from Sending My Love and the raccoon from Woodsy Creatures, then stamped and cut masks for them. I created two asks for the raccoon, one for the entire body for stamping the mailbox and another, just for the paws, so I could stamp the apple from Summer Picnic behind the digits.

After stamping the main part of the scene, I stamped the sentiment and added falling leaves - also from Woodsy Creatures - to create movement down and across the card. After colouring everything with Copic markers, I used the same colours from the leaf on the apple and the mailbox to create a pointillist anchor to ground the scene.

Thank you, Mendi, for this wonderful opportunity!
