Wedded Bliss Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M here! Today I’m sharing a card featuring the Wedded Bliss Set! I started off by trimming a piece of red patterned paper, from the Classic Sunburst Paper to 5,5 x 4,25 inches, the sunburst patterned side up and adhered it to my A2 size card base.

Next, I ran two pieces of white cardstock and one piece of black cardstock through my die cutting machine using the largest of the Limitless Labels 1 Die. I ink blended one of the white pieces with turquoise ink, the other with green ink, for sky and grass. The black piece I adhered behind the turquoise piece as a shadow. As I wanted a festive feel for this bride & groom, I splattered gold watercolor on the turquoise panel!

For my hill/grass piece I used the Slimline Nature Borders Die. Next, I stamped the adorable penguins from the Wedded Bliss Stamps, the branches, leaves and flowers from the Love Birds Stamps using Memento Tuxedo Black ink on alcohol ink friendly card stock and used the coordinating Wedded Bliss Dies, and the Love Birds Dies, to die cut them out and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below.

Leaves: G94, YG03/17
Tree: E21/23/25
Penguins; W0/1/2/3, N3/4/5/6, R30/32, YR21/24/27
Tiara: Y26/28
Dress: C1
Tux: N3/4/5
Flowers: R02/05, Y26/28
Hearts: R02/05

I used the branches as trees for this card, and I glued the leaves and flowers to them! Next, I stamped the sentiment, from the Wedded Bliss Stamps set on my grass piece. I added foam dots to the grass piece so that I could easily tuck the bottom of my trees underneath.

I added foam dots to the upper half of the bride & groom and used liquid glue for the lower part and adhered them to the card. I glued the flowers directly on the grass and the hearts were popped up with foam dots. I adhered my sweet wedding scene to the sunburst patterned card base!

Thank you for stopping by! Wishing you a happy and colorful day!

Love Birds Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I have a sweet and punny birthday card to share with you showcasing the Love Birds set. 

I stamped the mages from the Love Birds Stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Love Birds Dies to diecut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Blue Birds: B32/21/24, Y17, R20
Yellow Bird: Y11/13/15/19. Y17, R20
Green Bird: YG00/01/03, Y17, R20
Branch: E31/23/25
Leaves: YG01/03/25
Flowers: Y13/17, R20

For the background, I used the Slimline Nature Borders Dies to diecut a piece of clear acetate to make my own cloud stencil. I used my homemade cloud stencil and Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink to ink blend a subtle background onto a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock. On another piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock, I used the largest die from the Stitched Arch Dies to diecut a window.  

For the sentiment, I used the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles Die to diecut a speech bubble and the Stitched Rectangle Dies to diecut a banner out of pink cardstock. I stamped the “A Little Birdie Told Me” and the “It’s Your Bird Day” sentiments from the Little Birdie Stamps onto the speech bubble and the banner with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 

I adhered the colored images and the sentiments to the panel with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape. Foam tape was used to adhere the two panels to each other before it 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. Be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Monkey Business Cards with Rachel Alvarado

Hello crafty friends! I hope your weekend is off to a great start! It's Rachel here, and I have two cards to share with you that showcase the adorable new Monkey Business Stamps and Jungle Vines Dies. I had so much fun making these cards with these products!

For my first card, I created a shadow box card that folds flat for shipping. This card measures at 5.5" tall, 4.25" wide, and 1.5" deep. When folded flat, it can fit in a standard A8 envelope and measures 5.5" tall and 5.75" long. For the front window of this shadow box, I die cut a rounded stitched rectangle using the Rounded Rectangle Window Dies. 

For the inside of the card, I added a few hills of grass using the Slimline Nature Border Dies. I die cut the grass pieces from white card stock and blended them with Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, and Rustic Wilderness Distress Ink. I also die cut my vines and foliage pieces from white card stock and used Copic Markers to give them some color and shading. For my monkeys, I stamped my images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and colored them with Copic Markers. I then die cut them using the coordinating Monkey Business Dies.

Lastly, I heat embossed my sentiment on black card stock using some Fine Detail White Embossing Powder and glued it to the front strip of grass.

Copic Colors Used:

• Monkeys: E000, E00, E11, E04 (light areas); E43, E44, E47 (dark areas)
• Foliage: YG01, YG06, YG17, YG67
• Tree Limbs: E31, E23, E25, E29
• Bananas: Y13, Y15, V12

I used the same Copic colors for my images on my second card as well as the Monkey Business Stamp Set and Dies. For my background, I used a beautiful piece of patterned paper from the Spring Fling Paper Pad. This pre-printed design makes it super easy to add some beautiful backgrounds without any fuss.

Once again, I heat embossed my sentiment with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder and cut it out using my paper trimmer before adhering it to my card.

I hope you enjoyed my cards today and will give these products a closer look! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Afternoon Tea Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and today you are invited to a special party! When I saw this cute Afternoon Tea stamp and die set, I knew I wanted to make a sweet pink themed card. 

Seeing the large images in this set, I opted for a square white card base. My next layer consists of a white panel made with one of the Stitched Square dies. After adhering this piece to the card base, I made another white panel, this time using the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies. As I often do, I dry embossed this paper with the Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder. I love layering white on white panels, since it brings elegance to the card without distracting from the focal point.

For this design, I decided to combine the images from the Afternoon Tea set with a lovely flower arrangement (Pink Peonies). I colored the flowers with my Copics and that was also my initial plan for the teapot and cup.

However, this is where I changed my mind and decided to go for the fun technique of paper piecing. I stamped my images a second time on pattern paper (Gingham Pastels) and used my scissors to cut them out. The handles of both the pot and cup were a bit challenging, therefore I just removed them and colored them with Copics on the white paper version. After I finished cutting, I simply glued the cup and teapot onto the white images to get that clean crisp border.

To ground my scene, I cut a layer from a green paper (Flirty Flowers) with the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies and one of the Slimline Basic Border dies. I browsed through my stash and found the perfect sentiment in the Inside Greetings Friends set. After stamping this phrase with a green ink on a white banner, it was time to assemble the card. A few Pink Spinel Jewels were the perfect match for this design.

I can’t wait to see your creations with this cute set! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

The Graduate Card with Tina M

Hi there! Tina M here sharing a card featuring the new The Graduate Stamps set!

For my A2 size card I started with the background panels, I die cut out a pink piece using patterned paper from the Flirty Flowers Paper pack using the largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies. From white card stock I die cut out the second largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies, I then die cut out the scene using the Slimline Nature Borders Die set creating the road, grassy area and the sky and ink blended each piece and then adhered the panels to the card base.

Next, I stamped the penguins from the Passionate Penguins Stamp set, the caps and the graduation scrolls from The Graduate stamps set, and the clouds from the Majestic Meadow Stamps set on alcohol ink friendly card stock using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below.

Copic colors used:
Penguins: N5/6/8, W0/1/2, R00/30/32, YR21/24/27
Car: RW10/11/13, N1/3/5/6/8, YR31
Bow: RW10/11/13
Caps: RW10/11/13, YG:61/63 G94/99, BG:10/11/13
Graduation scrolls:E40/42, YG:61/63 G94, BG:10/11/13
Clouds:C0/1, RV10

I then die cut the images out using the coordinating Passionate Penguins Dies, The Graduate Dies and the Majestic Meadow Dies. I then added foam dots to the back of all die cut pieces for dimension and adhered them to the scene panel.

Lastly, I stamped the big Congrats Grad from The Graduate Stamps set with green ink, die cut it out using the coordinating die from The Graduate Dies set . I added foam dots to the back for dimension and adhered it to the card!

Thanks for stopping by! Wishing you all a happy and colorful day!
