Die cut a white rectangle using the Frilly Frames Hexagon and cut a pattern paper rectangle using the Classic Gingham. Cut a piece of green grass and ink blended it using Peeled Paint. Another border of grass I ink blended using Old Paper and Frayed Burlap.

Baked With Love Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you today and I have a sweet birthday card to share featuring the Foxy Friends, Baked with Love, and Holiday Hugs sets. So let’s get started.

I stamped the adorable images from the Foxy Friends Stamps, Baked With Love Stamps and the cupcake from the Holiday Hugs Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the coordinating Foxy Friends Dies, Baked With Love Dies and Holiday Hugs Dies to diecut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Foxes: YR21/24/27 E35/37, W00/0/1/3, R000/20, W7
Birds: Y11/13/15/19, Y38
Oven Mitt: RV000/10/21/13
Spatula: C1/3, RV10/21/13
Cookies: E53, RV000/10/21/13/14
Cupcake: RV000, E40/41/81 W3, E53/33, RV10/21/13
Frosting Bags: C000/0/1/3, RV21
SWEET: RV10/21/13/14

For the background, I took a piece of white cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and diecut two windows into it using the Stitched Circle Large Dies. With the windowed panel as a guide, I ink blended Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink onto another piece of white cardstock in the location of those windows. 

For the sentiment, I used the Sydney Alphabet Dies to diecut the SWEET letters 3 times out of white cardstock. I colored one set of letters with Copic markers. I stacked and adhered the letters with liquid glue for a bit of dimension. I stamped the “Wishing you a” and “birthday" sentiments from the Panda Party Stamps set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink directly onto the white windowed panel. I adhered the SWEET letters onto the panel.

I adhered the two panels to each other using foam tape. I adhered the colored images to the front of the card with foam tape for additional dimension and interest. The card front was adhered to an A2 white card base (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.

Birthday Mouse Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing a cheerful birthday card made with the cutest little Birthday Mouse.

I started by creating the background. First, I die-cut a card panel from the beautiful yellow Sunburst paper and trimmed a strip of the colorful plaid paper. Both patterned papers come from the Spring Sunburst Paper Block. I adhered them to a white cardstock base to create a bright and festive layout.

To give the transition between the two papers a polished look, I added a thin strip of gold glitter cardstock and I finished it with a pretty glittery bow, die-cut using the bow from the Wicker Basket dies.

Using the leftover yellow Sunburst paper, I die-cut the ‘hooray’ sentiment with the Sydney Alphabet dies. From the remaining plaid paper, I created the colorful gift boxes using the Perfect Gift Boxes dies. I then die-cut the gift box bows from gold glitter cardstock and cut a second set of the ‘hooray’ letters from shiny gold cardstock to use as a shadow layer behind the yellow letters, giving the sentiment extra dimension.

For the focal point, I stamped the adorable Birthday Mouse and colored it with my Ohuhu pencils. To finish the card, I adhered all the elements to the background and added a few gold stars for a little extra sparkle and a festive finishing touch.

Card done, ready to send joy! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Sweet As Can Bee Cards with Leanne West

Hello everyone! Leanne here and I'm very happy to be here to share a couple of bee theme cards I have made using the absolutely adorable Sweet As Can Bee stamp set and matching dies. I've also done a little creative fussy cutting to make a custom bee hive. I'll explain how to do this in detail below. 

This first card includes lots of images and a sentiment from the Sweet As Can Bee stamp set as well as my custom-made bee hive. 

Making your own card stock bee hive is very easy to do. Start with creating a template by folding a small sheet of copy paper in half. Next draw the bee hive shape on the folded paper like you see in the photo below. If you'd like to make the same size as mine, use the measurements in the photo. Next cut the shape out and unfold the paper. Now you have a template for a perfectly symmetrical hive which you can trace onto card stock and fussy cut out. I cut mine out of pale yellow card stock. I then added shading and splatters to give the hive some definition and interest. Lastly, I used a 3/4" paper punch to create the opening and backed it with a dark brown card stock. 

After my bee hive was complete, I stamped the sentiment and then adhered it with foam tape to a panel vellum cut slightly smaller than A2 size. I embellished this panel with lots of Copic colored flowers and bees. Once I had the placement of everything just right, I adhered my little bee hive scene onto a pink A2 size card front. The pink card front was splattered beforehand with gold and pink watercolor to give it a speckled look. 

For the second card, I have created another playful scene with the bees and flowers, only this time I used the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies to create a background that perfectly pairs with the Sweet As Can Bee stamp set. 

The Hexagon Frame has been die cut from light yellow card stock and then backed with a creamy ivory card stock. I then layered this frame over top a bright pink panel slightly smaller than my A2 size card base. 

I wanted the sentiment to take center stage on the card with the bees and flowers surrounding it. I used a combination of word stamps from Sweet As Can Bee and the Sydney Alphabet Dies to create this fun sentiment. I then added the flowers and bees to create the carefree style composition. 

I hope I have given you a bit of new inspiration for making whimsical bee theme cards. Thanks so much for joining me today! Copics used to color the images are listed below.

bright pink - RV10, RV13, RV14; medium pink - R83, R85; bright green - YG11, YG13, YG17; medium green - YG61, YG63; bright yellow- Y11, Y13, Y17; mustard yellow - YR32, Y2; black- N2, N4, N6; cool shading on white flowers -C1, C3; light blue shading on bee wings - B00

Party Pets Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I'm super excited to share a fresh slice of summer inspiration featuring the absolutely adorable Party Pets Stamp! Let's dive right into the details!

​I started by stamping the sleeping cat from the Party Pets Stamp onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Right after that, I die-cut three watermelons from white cardstock using the Juicy Watermelon Dies. ​To bring them all to life, I reached for my favorite Copic markers and gave them some bright, juicy colors. Once I finished blending everything, I used the matching Party Pets Dies to cut out the sweet kitty beautifully.

​COPIC COLORS USED:
Cat: E30, E31, E35, E39, E41, R30
Watermelons: G19, R30, R35, R43, YG03, YG17, YG63, W7

For the background panel, I wanted to create a fun, colorful foundation. I used the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies to give the bottom of my white cardstock a lovely scalloped edge, and then I softly ink-blended it using Saltwater Taffy and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Inks to mimic those perfect watermelon tones.

​Next came the bold sentiment. I die-cut the word 'MELON' three times using the Sydney Alphabet Dies and layered them together with glue because I absolutely love the extra dimension it adds.

​When it was finally time to assemble the card, I popped the background, the stacked word, the watermelons, and our sleepy little kitten into place using foam tape. That little bit of lift really makes the whole playful scene pop!

​That wraps up today’s project! I really hope this bright summer greeting brings a smile to your face and sparks your creativity. Wishing you all a wonderful day of crafting!
