Harvest Mice Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with a fall themed card featuring the absolutely adorable Harvest Mice. I absolutely adore these super cute mice. This fun set comes with so many harvest themed accessories: pumpkins, corn, corn stalk, apples and even the cutest little sweater for the sweater weather season.

I started by creating the layout. I used 3 pieces of cardstock: Bristol Smooth (3.75" x 4.75"), white (4" x 5.25"), and kraft (4.25" x 5.5"). I cut the Bristol Smooth cardstock in half to create two scenes for my card. I used the Slimline Nature Borders Dies to die cut a piece of clear acetate to make my own cloud stencil. I used my homemade stencil, Dried Marigold, Carved Pumpkin, Ripe Persimmon and Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide inks to ink blend the backgrounds for the two scenes. For the bottom scene, I also used the Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide ink to stamp some corn stalks from the Harvest Mice Stamp set onto the background. I adhered the white and kraft colored panels to each other. A piece of craft foam was added to the back of each of the two scenes before they were adhered to the white and kraft panels.

I stamped the images from the Harvest Mice Stamps and a couple of the larger pumpkins from the Too Cute to Spook Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Harvest Mice Dies, and Too Cute to Spook Dies to die cut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Mice: E50/51/53/33/35, R000/20, E35
Pumpkins: Y17/38 YR04/07, YG03
Corn: Y13/08, YG01/03
Sweater: BG10/53/45
Wagon: R22/24/29, C1, T7
Wheelbarrow: E41/42/43/44

For the sentiment, I used one of the banner dies from the Stitched Rectangles Dies set to die cut a sentiment strip out of kraft cardstock. I stamped the "pumpkin kisses & harvest wishes" sentiment from the Harvest Mice Stamps set onto it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I adhered the sentiment strip and colored images onto the inked panel with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card. For more info and ideas, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Sending pumpkin kisses and harvest wishes to all of you! Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Truckloads Of Love Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here with you today, I'm thrilled to be back with this autumn card featuring the mouse family again. This time, they're back with their rakes to pick up the falling leaves and keep the neighborhood neat and tidy.

I cut a 7,75 x 2,75 inches slimline panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock using a Slimline Scalloped Frame die, and created a very simple background. I divided my panel in two sections using washi tape, and started by covering the bottom part with peeled paint distress ink. I mixed that same ink with water and used a slim brush to add green splatters to my grass section. Next I did the sky on the upper part using a cloudy stencil from my stash along with tumbled glass and broken china distress inks. I mixed some broken china distress ink with water and added blue splatters to the sky, and then I did the same with copic opaque white ink and splattered white droplets all over my slimline panel.

When my panel was dry, I stamped my greeting from Fall Friends, attached it to an 8 x 3 inches white panel using 1mm foam tape. I cut a scalloped panel out of aqua cardstock using another Slimline Scalloped Frame die, stuck the white panel to it using liquid glue, and then attached the whole thing to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches green card base using 1mm foam tape again.

Next I stamped my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I used the coordinating dies to cut them all, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Scenic Route - houses • Woodsy Autumn - trees • Fall Scenes - piles of leaves, rakes, leaves • Truckloads Of Love - truck, pile of leaves (at the back of the truck) • Beach Bus - mouse (driver) • Merry Mice - mice, scarves • Barnyard Buddies - fences.

When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then attached them all to my card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. 

And that's it! I hope that you like this new mouse family fall scene. I wonder where we will meet them next time. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week!

Clucky Chickens Farm Card with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share an everyday card featuring our Clucky Chickens Stamps.

For my card, I started by coloring the background border with the rolling hills with the fir trees from our Scenic Route Stamps. I then layered another hillside cut from white cardstock using our Slimline Nature Border Dies which I inked up with Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn distress inks, tucking a couple extra trees on the right side to balance my scene. I then added the blue sunburst print from our Spring Sunburst Paper pack and stamped the punny sentiment "I get by with a little help from my hens" from our Farm Fresh Stamps.

As I added each layer to my scene, I "trimmed" it down by die-cutting the layer with our Stitched Rectangle Dies, so when they were all layered together, they would have one cohesive stitched frame. I then populated the foreground of my scene with the hen house, box of hay, chickens, and chicks from our adorable Clucky Chickens Stamps. I love how this farm scene came together with all the different layered elements, many of which I must admit were already stamped years ago and just waiting to be used on a card--That always makes me feel so good to put them to good use!

That wraps up my project for this morning. I hope I've inspired you in your own cardmaking and that you spread a little happiness by sending out a card to a loved one today.😊

Tiki Time Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here with you today, I'm so happy to be back on the blog! Since summer is officially here, I thought it would be nice to take you to the beach, drink some refreshing cocktails and have fun in the ocean. As very often, the scene I had in mind was extra busy with many images, so I went for a slimline design to create my card.

I started off by stamping all the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the matching dies, and then colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers.

As always, here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Tiki Time - bar, torches, cocktails, leaves, toucans • Seasonal Trees - palm tree, coconuts • Tropical Birds - flowers • Paris Afternoon - table & parasol, chairs • Beach Bus - surfboard • Ocean View - seashell • Beach Babies - two characters, balloon • Kiddie Pool - four characters, droplets • Beach Buddies - sunglasses, snorkeling mask.

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, set them aside for later, and cut a 3 x 8 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel. I masked the stitched edges off with washi tape, divided it in three sections using washi tape again, and used oxide inks to create my beach landscape:

• in the upper section, I created a cloudy sky using a stencil from my stash along with tumbled glass and broken china. I mixed some broken china oxide ink with water, and used a slim brush to add splatters to my sky,

• on the middle section, I blended antique linen and vintage photo to create sand, and added brown splatters using vintage photo oxide ink,

• on the lower section, I did the ocean using broken china and uncharted mariner, and added dark blue splatters using uncharted mariner oxide ink.

Next I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters all over the panel. And to give the illusion of sea foam between the sand section and the ocean section, I applied white ink on that area using a sponge dauber, and added even more ink using the rounded end of a brush.

When my panel was dry, I white embossed "Happy summer" from Beach Babies at the very bottom, and then I attached all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

Next I cut a scalloped panel out of aqua cardstock using a Slimline Scalloped Frame die, attached it to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches white card base using 1mm foam tape, and finally stuck my beach scene panel using foam tape again.

And that's it! Now put your swimsuit on, grab your sunscreen and sunglasses, and let's go have some fun at the beach! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!
