Bighearted Bears Card with Rachel

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with a love-themed shaker card featuring the new and adorable Bighearted Bears Stamp Set. I absolutely LOVE this stamp set! It can be used for more than just Valentine's Day and it also coordinates perfectly with the previously released Panda Party Stamp Set. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Bighearted Bears Valentine's Day Card by Rachel Alvarado (featuring Panda Party, My Heart, Fancy Frame Dies)

I first stamped my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I also stamped a fun little banner from the Panda Party Stamp Set. I used Copic markers to color my images and the coordinating Bighearted Bears and Panda Party die sets to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:

  • Pandas: W00, W1, W3, W5, W7
  • Cheeks: R32
  • Pinks: RV02, RV04, RV17
  • Reds: R14, R46, R59, R89

Next, I trimmed a piece of smooth white card stock to 4" x 5.25" and blended it with some Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. Once I finished blending, I then added some spatters of diluted Copic Opaque White Paint as well as some pink dots from some Copic Markers (RV02, RV04). I used some doubled sided tape to attach this piece to my top-folding A2 sized card base (4.25" x 5.5") and then die cut my scalloped frame 6x's using the largest die from the Fancy Frames Rectangles Die Set. I used liquid adhesive to glue five of the frames together and then adhered them to my card base over top of the ink-blended panel. I then stamped my sentiment from the My Heart Stamp Set with some Pinkfresh Candy Apple Ink, cut it out with the coordinating My Heart Die Set and then added it to the center of my card base.

Next, I poured some Red & Pink Clay Heart Confetti and Majestic Mini Sequins onto the center of my card. After spreading the embellishments out with my finger, I then glued a 4" x 5.25" piece of clear acetate to the top of my rectangular scalloped frame. To finish off the shaker portion of my card, I then glued one more layer of my frame on top of the acetate for a clean look. Lastly, I added my images with some 3D foam adhesive tape for a pop of dimension.

Treat Bag Topper Card & Treat Bag with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm so thrilled to be back on the blog with my first project of the year, and I'm so excited about the new items from the Spring 2024 release! As you may or may not know, I am for mixing and matching new stuff with older stuff. Here my new stuff is the Treat Bag Topper, and my older stuff is Love Monkey, which I used for the very first time, and that was so fun!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Treat Bag Topper Die Focused Valentine's Day Projects by Marine Simon (featuring Love Monkey, Stitched Heart Dies)

As very often, I started off with the coloring and stamped all my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the coordinating dies, and used my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and Graph'it brush markers to color everything. And as you can see, I went for traditional Valentine colors.

Next I cut two identical Strathmore bristol smooth square panels and colored them both using a cloudy stencil along with spun sugar and worn lipstick oxide inks. I kept one of those two panels and cut a heart window out of it using the largest Stitched Heart 2, attached a piece of acetate at the back, on the front I stamped my "Swinging by to say I love you" greeting from Love Monkey on the acetate using black Stazon ink, and at the back of my panel I added foam strips all along the heart window, following its shape, and on the four sides as well. I poured some iridescent heart confetti and Red & Pink Confetti on the acetate, and then stuck my second cloudy panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker.

I attached my shaker panel on a larger red panel from Holiday Cheer, and stuck my images using 1mm foam squares. Added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then moved on to the Treat Bag Topper.

I started off by cutting the small stitched panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock and colored it the same way as my card using spun sugar and worn lipstick oxide inks. I stamped my "For my little love monkey" greeting from Love Monkey on the right side, cut the main Treat Bag Topper piece out of the same red Holiday Cheer paper as before, and attached my small stitched panel on the main piece using liquid glue. I stuck the images using 1mm foam squares, added highlights and details using a white gel pen, and finally added a cute little bow on the handle.

And that's it! Coloring those cute monkeys was super fun, and I adore the Treat Bag Topper, it's so cool I want to use it all the time. By the way, it is not impossible that my next project features it, so stay tuned for more inspiration! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you soon!

Truckloads of Love Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am featuring the sweet Truckloads of Love stamp and die set again. But this time we go holiday themed. I love that this set is so versatile, it can be used all year round. And how cute are the critters!!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Truckloads Of Love Winter Themed Holiday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Holiday Greetings, Ribbon & Lace Border Dies)

For this festive card I selected one of the ornament dies from my stash and cut it from white Neenah paper. You can create this shape yourself with any circle die you have and a rectangle for the topper. The scalloped edge can be achieved with several dies like the Ribbon & Lace Border DiesI inked the inside of the ornament with pink Distress Oxide inks Kitsch Flamingo and Worn Lipstick, leaving the bottom part white. Of course, I had to add splatters too!

Since this is a winter Holiday card, I wanted to replicate a snowy, frosty look around the borders of the ornament. First, I glued the pink panel into place and added an acetate layer on top. Next, I added the white circle border with topper. I searched through my stash to find a white pigment ink, which I then applied all around the borders of the circle with a small blending brush. This also gave me an indication of how wide I wanted my frosty border to be. Next, I used a glue bottle with a fine tip and glue that dries clear. Then it was time for the fun part: adding all the sparkly glitter (I use a dedicated box for this, if not my desk is a real mess!!).

Sunny Studio Stamps: Truckloads Of Love Winter Themed Holiday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Holiday Greetings, Ribbon & Lace Border Dies)

While the glue was drying, I selected my images from the Truckloads of Love stamp set. I chose the truck, the Christmas tree, and the cute raccoon. All the coloring was done with Copic Markers, and I added some snowflakes with a white gel pen.

The large Merry Christmas sentiment was stamped with red ink from my stash and cut with the matching dies (Holiday Greetings stamp and die set). I mounted the images and sentiment onto the ornament shape with foam tape. The topper was cut from white glitter paper, and I added a little pink bow to make the card extra festive!

Thank you for joining me and I am wishing you a wonderful holiday season!

Bells & Baubles Card with Rachel

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with a Christmas shaker card featuring the beautiful Bells & Baubles layering stamp set. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Bells & Baubles Christmas Card by Rachel Alvarado (featuring Fancy Frame Dies)

I started my card by first stamping my ornaments onto a sheet of smooth white card stock. I used a layering of Altenew Pink Pearl, Heart Beat, and Vineyard Berry Inks. I also stamped some pine branches using some Pinkfresh Aquamarine Ink. Next, I used the Bells & Baubles Die Set to cut my stamped images. I set these images aside to then work on my card background.

For the base of my card, I used a top-folding A2 sized piece of white card stock and layered it with a 4" x 5.25" piece of dark green card stock. On top of that piece, I added a 3.75" x 5" layer on which I had blended some Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink. I added a few spatters of diluted Copic Opaque White Paint as well as some dots of green Copic Markers before adding this piece to my card base.

Next, I adhered my ornaments and pine branches and then added 4 layers (adhered together with liquid adhesive) of scalloped rectangle frames that I had die cut from white card stock using the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies. To finish the shaker portion of my card, I next added a 3.75" x 5" piece of clear acetate and one more scalloped rectangle frame to the top.

Lastly, I added my sentiment that I had heat embossed onto some more dark green card stock and also added some holly and berries from the Woolen Mitten Die Set.

Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by today! Wishing you all a lovely day!

Love & Light Card with Rachel

Hello crafty friends! It’s Rachel here with a festive shaker card featuring the Love & Light Stamp Set and coordinating dies.  

Sunny Studio Stamps: Love & Light Hanukkah Shaker Card by Rachel Alvarado (featuring Stitched Arch Dies)

To create my card, I first stamped all my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 100lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then used Copic alcohol markers to color them.

Copic Colors Used:

  • Blues: B00, B21, B23, B28
  • Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17, YG67
  • Dessert: Y21, Y23, E33; 0, W00, W1, W3, R46
  • Reds: R35, R46, R89
  • White: 0, C00, C1, C3

I trimmed my card base to 4.25” x 5.5” from a piece of blue card stock and die cut an arch-shaped window into this piece using the largest of the Stitched Arch Dies. I then adhered a piece of clear acetate behind the arched-window with some liquid adhesive. Next, I ink-blended a 4.25” x 5.5” piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with some Distress Inks (Black Soot, Chipped Sapphire, and Tumbled Glass.). To give this blending some texture, I then spattered some water drops onto this piece and blotted it dry with a paper towel.  I also added a few spatters of diluted Copic Opaque White Paint.

To create my shaker card, I added some Majestic Mini Sequins to my ink-blended piece and placed my card stock with the window on top of my base piece with some 3D foam adhesive tape. To finish my card, I heat embossed my sentiment with Fine Detail Gold Embossing Powder onto the same blue card stock that I had used for my card base. Lastly, I adhered all of my images with 3D foam adhesive squares for extra dimension.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! Wishing you all a lovely day!

Love & Light Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm very happy to be back on the blog with this bright Hanukkah card showcasing the beautiful Love & Light stamp set which includes the perfect images to make your own Hanukkah card or tags.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Love & Light Hanukkah Card by Marine Simon (featuring Scalloped Oval Mat Dies, Stitched Oval Dies, Dotted Diamond Dies)

I decided to go for a shaker card, and started off by cutting three different elements to build it:

• an A2 sized Dotted Diamond Landscape blue panel
• an A2 sized Spring Sunburst blue panel
• an A2 sized acetate panel
• a gold glitter frame using the Stitched Oval 2 + Scalloped Oval Mat 1 largest dies

Sunny Studio Stamps: Love & Light Hanukkah Card by Marine Simon (featuring Scalloped Oval Mat Dies, Stitched Oval Dies, Dotted Diamond Dies)

I added a little bit of prize ribbon + black soot distress inks on the edges of my Dotted Diamond panel, and used the largest Stitched Oval 2 die to cut an opening right in the middle of it. I attached the acetate panel at the back using double sided tape, and added foam strips all along the four edges of my panel, as well as around the oval opening. I poured a bunch of golden sequins inside the window, and then stuck my Spring Sunburst panel on the foam to totally close the shaker. And to decorate the oval window nicely, I attached my gold glitter frame using liquid glue.

Next I stamped all my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers + Graph'it brush markers. I also white heat embossed my "Happy Hanukkah" greeting from Love & Light on black cardstock and cut it using the coordinating die.

I attached everything on my shaker panel using 1mm foam squares and liquid glue, and finally added highlights and details using a white gel pen. And that's it! I hope that you like it. Here's another idea, as I'm writing this, you could create a wreath with the olive branches and put either the dove in the center, or the candelabrum, or even just the greeting, any of these would look amazing! 

Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week.

Pretty Poinsettia Card with Rachel

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here, and I have a Christmas shaker card to share with you today featuring the beautiful Pretty Poinsettia layering clear stamps set. I combined this set with the gorgeous Frilly Frames Quatrefoil Die Set to add both texture and interest to my background. The nice thing about this card is that it's super easy to re-create because there is only stamping, die cutting, and gluing involved and no coloring.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Pretty Poinsettia Christmas Card by Rachel Alvarado (featuring Winter Greenery, Frilly Frame Dies)

To start, I first stamped out three separate poinsettias using some Pinkfresh Studio Ink. The colors I used (in this order) were Passion Fruit, Candy Apple, and Espresso. I like using a dark brown ink when layering stamps with red ink, because I feel like the color really helps the image to pop and still appears as a dark red instead of a brown. I only used three of the layering stamps when creating my poinsettias. Following this, I used the Pretty Poinsettia Die Set to cut them out. Next, I die cut some holly leaves using the holly die that comes in the new Woolen Mitten Dies. There are also holly dies in the Winter Greenery Die Set (which I also used for the red foliage).

I set aside my florals to work on my background and adhered the back of my cutout to a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of clear acetate with liquid adhesive. Next, I attached some 1/4" wide foam adhesive tape to the back frame of my frilly quatrefoil cutout and then added some shimmery shaker embellishments to the inside of this piece. I then adhered a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of light gray card stock over the back of my card to hold in my embellishments. Once my shaker base was finished, I then heat embossed my sentiment on a 1.5" x 5.75" piece of clear heavy-duty vellum with some Liquid Platinum Fine Detail Embossing Powder. I wrapped this strip around the middle of my card and attached the folded tabs to the back of my panel prior to adhering my card to a top-folding A2 sized card base. Lastly, I added my florals to the front of my card with either 3D foam adhesive tape or liquid adhesive depending on which pieces I wanted to add dimension or not.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today! If you liked this card and want more card making inspiration, please feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM FEED.

Lovable Llama Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here and today we are making a fun shaker birthday card! The super adorable llama is from the Lovable Llama stamp set and comes with matching dies. This set also includes a pile of presents which would work great with the Perfect Gift Boxes, so that is the design I am going for!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Lovable Llama Birthday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Stitched Arch Dies, Perfect Gift Boxes, Happy Thoughts)

First, I cut a panel from white Neenah paper with the outer of the Frilly Frames Stripes dies. I then dry embossed this piece with the Quilted Hearts folder. I love the subtle detail it gives to a simple white background!

The shaker opening was created with the largest Stitched Arch die. I adhered a piece of acetate to the back of this panel with strong double-sided tape. Then I build a ‘wall’ for my shaker around the arch with double sided foam tape.

I folded a white card base and glued a piece of pattern paper with cute hearts (Subtle Grey Tones paper pad) to the front of the base. This will be the backing for the shaker element of this card. The three boxes were cut from pink, purple and orange tones (Gingham Pastel paper pad) with white trim and lids.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Lovable Llama Birthday Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Stitched Arch Dies, Perfect Gift Boxes, Happy Thoughts)

The focal element of the card is this adorable llama with the party hat and gifts (Lovable Llama stamp set). All these images were colored with Copic markers. I also added a small bow tie from Spring Showers. The sentiment was selected from the Happy Thoughts set and stamped onto a small white strip with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

After filling the shaker with pink, purple and clear sequins from my stash, I added all my images and sentiment to the arch window frame. A few Chrystal Clear Jewels were adhered to the gift boxes and the little bow tie. 

I had a lot of fun creating this shaker with the cutest llama ever! Can’t wait to see your creations! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!
