Guest Designer Spotlight: All Occasion Cards with Kavya

Hi folks, Kavya from Handmade By Kavya with some fun inspiration for the latest release! The new release is fueled with fun adorable cuties perfect for any occasion. Since it's valentine's day, I am going to show you how to make three cards that could be perfect for any occasion including today. How perfect is that? I think every card stash needs cards that are versatile! 

For my first card, we will be highlighting the typewriter from Vintage Valentines stamp set. I started off by stamping images from Vintage Valentines and Garden Fairy. For the background, I started off by die cutting Frilly Frames Quatrefoil using navy blue cardstock.

For the background, I took a lighter blue cardstock and ink blended the top using navy blue dye ink. For the table, I used pattern paper from All is Bright paper pack. Adhere all the images as shown in the picture below. Add a few details using white gel pen and you are done! 

For my next card, I am making a cute snail mail themed card! I started off by stamping and coloring a bunch of images from Vintage Valentines, Garden Critters and Snail Mail. Then, I created my oval base using Stitched Oval and Scalloped Oval Mat 3 dies. 

I then ink bended the top of the stitched oval die using pale pink dye ink. For the background, I used pattern paper from Critter Country paper pack. Adhere all the images, add a few details using a white gel pen and you are done! 

My final card is super simple to make but I think it's absolutely stunning! I started off by preparing my base using white cardstock and Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones paper pack. 

Then, I die cut a bunch of speech bubbles using Speech Bubbles Extras dies. Then, I added a 'hi' using Loopy Letters dies. Added a few details like hearts using white gel pen and I was done! 

I hope you liked all all of these cards :) Happy Crafting!

Loopy Rectangle Frame Die Focused Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I have a fun card featuring the new Loopy Rectangle Frames. The loopy frame reminded me of the classic phone cord and matched perfectly with the Vintage Valentine set. I thought it would be fun to create a trifold card for this Holiday Hugs bear say Hello to a Big Bunny friend. So, let’s get started.

I stamped the bear from the Holiday Hugs Stamp, bunny from the Big Bunny Stamp and phones from the Vintage Valentine Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the Holiday Hugs Dies, Big Bunny Dies and Vintage Valentine Dies to die cut them out. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Bear: E50/51/53/33, R000/20, W1/5/7
Scarf: R14/24/27, C00/0/1, B000/00/02
Bunny: C00/0/1/3, R000/20
Phone: R14/24/27, C0/1

I used the Loopy Rectangle Frame Dies to die cut two small loopy frames and one large label frame out of red and white cardstock. I saved the white frames for another project and only used the center panels as a background for this card. I also used the same Loopy Rectangle Frame die to trim the bottom edge of the bear and bunny images. 

For the sentiments, I used the new Speech Bubbles Extras Dies to die cut a speech bubble out of blue cardstock. I stamped the “Just ringing to say” sentiment from the Vintage Valentine Stamp set onto the speech bubble with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added the dots with a pen. Next, I used the new Sydney Alphabet Dies to die cut the HELLO twice out of red cardstock. I layered and adhered them to each other and then onto the white label die cut with liquid glue. 

For the Z-fold trifold card base, I used two side-folding A2 card bases. I placed one with the inside facing downward (like a mountain) and one with the inside facing upward (like a valley) and adhered them to each other. I adhered a blue and a pink piece of cardstock (4” x 5.25”) to each of the end panels. 

I adhered used foam tape to adhere the panel and speech bubble to the front blue panel for some dimension. I used liquid glue to adhere the HELLO label to the center panel and the bunny to the last pink panel for a slimmer profile.

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.

Vintage Valentine Card with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here. Today I’m sharing this tropical Valentine card featuring the new Vintage Valentine stamp set.  

For the background, I ink blended a bright green ground and a blue sky to set the scene. Next, I stamped the typewriter and a few envelopes with little notes from the Vintage Valentine stamp set and added the sentiments on it.  

I wanted to give the card a fun tropical twist, so I created a playful scene using the cute sloths from the Silly Sloths stamp set. To bring in lots of lush greenery, I added plants and leaves from the Tropical Scenes and Fabulous Flamingos stamp sets. 

As a finishing touch, I included the colorful parrots from the Tiki Time stamp set and added some highlights with a white gel pen. I love how all these elements come together to create a cheerful tropical Valentine card.

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

Vintage Valentine Card with Tina M

Hi there! It’s Tina M here with you today. Pink is my favorite color and I’m so excited to share a sweet pink card I created using the Vintage Valentine stamps!

My card base is A2 size and I started off by trimming a piece of pink polka dot paper from the Polka-dot Parade paper pack (the larger size polka dots) to 5,5 x 4,25 inches and then I adhered it to the card base using double sided tape. Next, I trimmed two pieces of card stock, a black piece to 5,1/8 x 3,7/8 inches and a pink piece to 5 x 3,3/4 inches.

I then placed the pink panel inside the Woodgrain embossing folder, applied darker pink ink inside the folder on the opposite side of the panel, closed the embossing folder and ran it through my die cutting machine to create a nice tone on tone pink woodgrain texture.
I adhered the pink woodgrain panel to the black panel for a nice thin black frame using double sided tape and adhered them to the card base.

Next, I stamped four of the cute envelope from the stamp set on pink polka dot paper (the smaller size polka dots). I then stamped four of the note cards, six hearts, and the typewriter on alcohol ink friendly card stock using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored them with my Copic Markers, see list below. I then die cut the images using the coordinating Vintage Valentine dies. I cut an extra piece of the typewriter.

Copic colors used:
Typewriter: RV52/55, V000, C5/3
Hearts: RV52/55

Time to stamp the greetings! I decided to go with xoxo on the little note cards, leaving space for a heart at the top on each of them. For the paper in the typewriter I chose You make my heart smile! Leaving space for two hearts at the top. I tucked the note cards in the envelopes, keeping them in place with a little glue. Lastly, I glued the hearts to the note cards and to the paper in the typewriter!

Remember I cut an extra piece of the typewriter? I glued it together with the stamped and colored piece to make it sturdier. I added foam dots to the back of the envelopes and the typewriter for dimension and adhered them to the woodgrain panel!

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