Quill Cuties Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here and today I am excited to share this adorable shaker card featuring the Quill Cuties stamp set.

I started by die-cutting the Comic Strip Everyday die: once from light brown cardstock and six times from white cardstock. I stacked and glued the six white die-cuts together to create a nice thick layer, perfect for building the shaker element.

For the background, I die-cut the tulips from the Majestic Meadow stamp set to create a cheerful base on the background. Next, I stamped and die-cut the adorable hedgehogs from the new Quill Cuties stamp set. I wanted to give the card a more Valentine-inspired feel, so I added the heart balloons from the Party Pets stamp set. To finish the scene, I included some extra images like the bouquet of tulips from the Big Bunny stamp set, little birds from Foxy Friends stamp set, and grass from the Bunnyville stamp set.

After coloring everything with my Ohuhu markers and adding a few white highlights with a white gel pen, it was time to assemble the card. And voilà, the shaker card was finished and ready to spread some love!

Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Quill Cuties Card with Marieke

Hello all, Marieke here. I'm back again with my weekly post for Sunny Studio Stamps. Today I hope to inspire you with a card that I made using the Quill Cuties.

First off I created the background. I masked off the bottom and inked up the top using Tattered Rose, Kitsch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide inks. Splattered some water and added the hearts using the same colors and a mask. 

Die cut the Window Trio Heart Landscape out of it. Inked the bottom using a brown ink and adhered a piece of acetate on the back of the panel. Filled the shaker using the Red & Pink Heart Confetti (fished the red ones out) and Iridescent Clear Jewels.

Used Copic Colors:
Green - YG67, YG63, YG03, YG01
Brown - E43, E42, E41
White - C5, C3, C1, C00, 0
Quill - E55, E53, E51, E50 / R21, R00 / E79, E77, E74
Pink - R85, R83, R81

Stamped all the images using Quill Cuties Stamps and Looking Sharp Stamps, colored them up using my Copic markers and cut them using the matching Quill Cuties Dies and Looking Sharp Dies. Added some glossy accents to the glasses and some wink of stella glitter to the other hearts before adding them on to the card. Stamped and heat embossed the sentiments and finished the card off by adding them on to the card.

Have a wonderful day!

Scenic Route Card with Amanda

Hey crafty friends!  It’s Amanda here, and we are officially TWO days away from Christmas. How did that happen?! Today I’m sharing a shaker card I created with a fun, snowy winter scene.

I started by trimming a piece of white cardstock to 4” x 5.25”. For the sky, I ink blended Catherine Pooler’s Clay Mask and Polished inks, keeping the lighter color in the center and blending darker toward the edges for a soft glow effect. Next, I trimmed another piece of white cardstock to 4” x 5.25” and stamped the Scenic Route Stamps background scene with black ink. Using the coordinating die set, I die cut the hills and trees, then colored them in with Copic markers. I used YG shades for the grass and G shades for the trees.

I then stamped images from the Snowmen in Sweaters and Penguin Party stamp sets and colored those with Copics as well. Once everything was colored, I trimmed the images out using the coordinating dies. For the sentiment, I stamped the words onto black cardstock using my WOW embossing pad, sprinkled on white embossing powder, and heat set it until smooth and shiny. I trimmed the sentiments into strips and added banner ends with my scissors.

Now it was time to bring the scene together! I glued the hilly background onto the sky panel, then used 3D foam squares and strips to pop up the sentiments and stamped images. To add snow, I grabbed a dotting tool with a small ball tip and dotted white acrylic paint across the scene for that snowy finishing touch.

While the paint dried, I prepped my shaker elements using small white balls, Birthday Cake Dot Sprinkles, and a full-panel shaker pouch. I added double-sided tape around the edges of the pouch, poured in my shaker elements, placed the card panel on top, and sealed it all up. Finally, I used glue to attach the shaker panel to an A2 card base .. and just like that, this festive shaker card was complete!

I love how this card came together with all the little details and movement! It’s such a fun way to bring a winter scene to life. Shaker cards always feel extra magical this time of year, and this one was such a joy to create. Thanks so much for crafting along with me, and I hope you’re soaking up these last sweet moments before Christmas!

Rustic Winter Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here. I'm so happy to be back with this monochromatic holiday card showcasing the beautiful Rustic Winter die set. I've had this set in my stash for years but for some reason never used it, and that was a huge mistake because it is amazing, I love those delicate and pretty deer!

I started off by cutting all the bits and pieces out of dark grey, light grey, white, and silver glitter cardstock. I added liquid stardust splatters to the white pieces, copic opaque white ink splatters and liquid stardust splatters to the dark grey and light grey pieces, and then assembled everything. I layered the deer, pine trees, birch trees, and bow on top of silver glitter pieces, but shifted them a little bit to get a pretty silver border around each element. The deer and birch trees are from Rustic Winter, the pine trees are from Distinctive Door Holiday Add-On, and the bow is from Wicker Basket.

Next I worked on my shaker background and cut a Rounded Rectangle Mat panel out of a Joyful Holiday snowflake pattern paper using the second largest die from the set. I used the second Stitched Semi Circle die to cut an opening out of my snowflake panel, cut an acetate panel slightly larger than the opening, created a frosty effect on the edges using copic opaque white ink and a sponge dauber, and once dry, I attached this piece of acetate at the back of my panel to create a window.

To turn this opening into a snow globe, I temporarily taped the second Stitched Semi Circle die to a piece of dark grey cardstock using washi tape, cut the semi circle shape following the outside edges of the die, and then run the panel through my die cutting machine, with the die still attached, to cut a thin frame that I stuck to the front of my snowflake panel around the acetate window using liquid glue. I cut a white panel using the second Stitched Semi Circle die again, cut a wavy border out of this panel, added liquid stardust splatters to it, and once dry, I stuck that border at the bottom of the acetate window using liaquid glue. I cut a fishtail banner out of light grey cardstock using a die from the Stitched Rectangle die set, white heat embossed "Peace, love & joy to the world" from Build-A-Greeting Holidays on it, and attached that banner right below the window using 1mm foam squares.

For the inside of my shaker, I first cut a Classic Sunburst black & grey panel using the second largest Rounded Rectangle Mat die, and added white splatters and liquid stardust splatters to it. On that black & grey panel, I added another white wavy border, making sure it was higher than the one on the front panel, and then stuck seven birch trees from Rustic Winter. I attached two layers of foam strips all around the edges of my inside panel, poured tiny crystal stones on the trees, peeled all the backing papers off the foam strips, and then stuck my front panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker panel. I attached my shaker panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches black panel, next to a white card base, and then I stuck the deer, pine trees, and bow using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

To decorate each top corner of the card, I cut Lacy Snowflakes out of the same cardstock as the other pieces, added the same details and textures, and assembled them using liquid glue. Finally, I glued White Snowflake Confetti in the center of each snowflake and bow as well. 

And that's it! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week!

Let's Chill Card with Amanda

Hey, crafty friends, and welcome back to the Sunny Studio Stamps blog! It’s Amanda here with you today sharing a cute little shaker card. I’ve been in a shaker-card mood lately, and I couldn’t resist making a fun, playful design featuring some of my favorite Sunny Studio holiday stamps!

I started by creating my shaker portion of the card. To do this, I grabbed my All is Bright patterned paper and found the snowy teal paper. I trimmed this paper down to 4.25” x 5.5”. Using the largest of the Stitched Arch Dies, I ran it through my die cutting machine, centering the arch in the center of the panel.

Once I had my 2 pieces, I glued the background arch to an A2 card base and set it aside. I created my snowy hilly background with the Scenic Route Stamps. While I had all my stamp supplies out, I also stamped my 2 cuties from the Let’s Chill Stamps.  

I created my sentiment using the Build-a-Greeting Holidays Stamps. This set has hundreds of combinations to make holiday sentiments and I LOVE it! I stamped the red words with Catherine Pooler’s Rouge ink first. Then, I stamped the rest with black ink.

I colored the images in with Copic markers. Here are the marker colors I used:
Trees: YG17 YG23
Snow: BG10, BG11, BG13
Seals: W0, W2, W3, W5, R20

Once all the images were colored, I cut them out with their coordinating dies. To make the hilly scene look like it’s in the background, I glued it behind my arched frame. I also put my sentiment strip behind the frame and glued it in place.

Now, to create the shaker part! I placed some Snow White Jewels on my card base in the center of the arch. On my front panel (the frame), I used double sided tape to adhere my piece of acetate. Then, I added foam strips around the entire front panel and then adhered it to my card base. The final step was to add my cute seals with some 3D foam squares to make them pop! 

I had so much fun making this shaker card, and I hope it brings a smile to your face today! If you haven’t tried making a shaker in a while, consider this your little crafty nudge!
