Amazing Argyle Paper Focused Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends! Tina here with a fun birthday card using bright paper from the Amazing Argyle pack. I am a big fan of this beautiful pattern!

After creating a white card base, I cut a panel of a pink-purple piece with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Chevron set. My next layer is a smaller white rectangle dry-embossed with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die. I love the subtle texture this provides! 

On top of this pattern, I added a white Stitched Arch. For the bottom of this piece, I used the same argyle paper as before. Can you guess I like adding layers to my projects? I glued all these panels to the card base with liquid glue. 

Then it was time to turn this card into a celebration with a cutie from Party Pets. All the coloring was done with my trusty Copic markers, and I used foam tape to adhere the sweet cat to the arched base. 

My sentiment needed some card surgery since I only used the congrats part from The Graduate die cut. But that was an easy fix with a little bit of fussy cutting. To make this card extra festive, I added lots of stars of the argyle paper (Comic Strip Speech Bubbles).

With so many birthdays in the coming months, I am sure this card will be sent soon! Thank you for joining me, and happy crafting!

Tiki Time Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and with one heatwave over we are already bracing ourselves for the next one! That is where a cool drink from the Tiki Time stamp and die set is much needed!

This card is all about happy and bright sunny colors, only the card base was kept white. The next layer is a fun yellow paper (Striped Silly) cut with the largest of the Rounded Rectangle Mat dies. I simply glued this piece to the card base before cutting a blue Stitched Arch with a paper from my stash. This will be my ‘sky’ background. I used the little island shape from Tropical Scenes as my beach.

Lastly, I stamped the bar image, two cute parrots and their drinks from the Tiki Time stamp set. I selected warm Copic colors and added a few highlights with a white gel pen.

I took a moment to decide where to put my sentiment since the card was already kind of busy. After browsing through my stash I found this sweet saying in the Inside Greetings Friends set and it was the perfect size to add to the front of the bar. I stamped the phrase on a piece of the same blue paper as my sky with Versafine Onyx Black ink. 

I used foam tape to add dimension to the sky, sand and images. And I love how these cute parrots are enjoying their fancy cool drinks! With lots going on already, I kept the bling part simple, just a few Champagne Clear Jewels were perfect!

I hope you are enjoying a fun crafty summer! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

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.

Inside Greetings Friends Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today we are creating a card all about friendship. I love sending my cards out to other crafters and this project is perfect for that. I will be using a sentiment from the Inside Greetings Friends stamp. These sentiments also work great on the outside of a card as show in this design!

After creating a white card base, I cut a white panel with the rectangle die from Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace. This piece was dry embossed with the Woodgrain folder before adhering it to the card base.

My background is an arch (Stitched Arch Dies) cut from a pink heart paper (Flirty Flowers) and also from white card stock. This latter arch will become the floor after I stamped a wooden texture (Sprawling Surfaces) with a brown ink from my stash. I did go in and added more color with my Copics. Next, I layered both arch pieces and glued them to the white wooden panel.

By now you will know that I love cute critters, so I selected two kittens and a box  from Cat Antics. As usual, I used my Copics for the coloring. I stamped the XOXO message (Vintage Valentine) with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto the little sign one of the cats is holding.

Finally, I used the same ink to add the sentiment (Inside Greetings Friends) to a white banner. All that was left was to mount the images and sentiment to my arch background. A few Champagne Clear Jewels gave this project that extra sparkle!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Baked With Love Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and I confess, I love cookies! That is why I was excited to make a card with the sweet Baked With Love stamp and die set. Now this set offers plenty of options for the cutest designs. Since I also adore critters, I definitely wanted to bring in an image from the Foxy Friends set.

After creating a white rectangle card base, I cut a panel from a pink paper (Polka-Dot Parade) with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes die. I have used these outer dies many times and I highly recommend having these staples in your stash. Next, I glued the panel to the base with liquid glue. For my scene, I cut a white Stitched Arch and dry embossed the piece with the Quilted Hearts folder. I also glued a strip of pink card stock near the bottom so I could add my scene later on.

I stamped all the cookies from the Baked With Love stamp and the rolling pin. As mentioned before, I also selected a cute fox (Foxy Friends set). I enjoyed coloring all these images in fun colors with my Copics and added some white sprinkles with my gel pen.

The hardest part of this project was figuring out the design, I had one fox and a whole lot of cookies! First, I decided that the fox would be sitting on the rolling pin. Next, I played around with stacking the cookies until I was happy with the lay-out.

This card needed a fun sentiment so I spelled out the word ‘Baked’ with the letters of the Sydney Alphabet. I love how well they match with the arched shape. To create that chipboard effect, I cut each letter three times and stacked them with liquid glue.

For the sub sentiment I found the perfect one in the Baking Spirits Bright set. Yes, that is a Christmas set, but I encourage you to keep using these stamps all year round where possible! I stamped the sentence on a white banner with Versafine Onyx Black ink and added foam tape to mount it to the card. A few Aquamarine Jewels were placed in the corners for some extra glam. 

I can’t wait to see all the yummy projects you will make with this sweet set!! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
