Designer's Choice Cards with Marine and Marieke

Hey crafty friends, Marine here with you today! I'm super happy to be back on the blog with this duo of cute and bright cards. They feature the butterfly stamp from the Watering Can stamp set, I didn't get a chance to use that stamp before, and I thought it would be nice to use with rainbow colors.

I started by cutting a 6 x 3" mini slimline white panel, and an 8,5 x 3,5" slimline white panel. On the mini slimline panel I printed texture using the Moroccan Circles embossing folder, and on the slimline panel I added texture by creating lines each quarter of an inch using a ball tool.

I gold heat embossed a bunch of butterflies on vellum, and I cut them using the coordinating die. I used that same coordinating die to cut colorful butterflies. And I white heat embossed a "Thinking of you" sentiment from Watering Can on a black banner. 

Next I assembled the cards. On the mini slimline panel, I added a vertical row of butterflies. I first attached plain butterflies in a rainbow order using foam squares, tucked my "Thinking of you" sentiment between two butterflies, and then stuck a golden butterfly on each plain butterfly using liquid glue.

And on the slimline panel, I stamped a simple "Hello" sentiment from Lovely Lilacs, attached plain butterflies in zigzag using foam squares, and then added a golden butterfly on each plain butterfly. And I finished both cards by gluing clear droplets to bring more light.

And that's it! They're both super pretty and they were very quick to make so it would definitely be easy to mass produce them. I hope that those cards will inspire you. As always I leave with the process video so feel welcome to check it out for more details (click on the image above)! Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Hello Sunny Studio Friends, Marieke here. Today I hope to inspire you with a personalized card that I made especially for the amazing owner of Sunny Studio; Mendi! 

I ink blended Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Dried Marigold, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry on to a piece of cardstock and I die cut it. Splattered some water and adhered it onto a slightly larger rectangle.

Out of white cardstock I cut the word Thanks using the Thank You Word Dies four times and glued them together. Die cut the name Mendi and adhered both in the middle of the card. Heat set the other sentiments that are in the Fabulous Flamingo set on pink cardstock. Die cut the small sentiment and cut the other one using my scissors.

Used Copic Colors:
Flamingo - RV13, RV42, R01, R00 / C5,C3,C1,0 / Y13, Y11
Green - YG67, YG63, YG03, YG01
Brown - E47, E44, E43
Dark Green - G28, G09, G07
Pink - R85, R83, R81

Stamped the images out of the Fabulous Flamingos and Tropical Scenes stamps. Colored them up using my Copic markers and cut them using the Fabulous Flamingos and Tropical Scenes Dies.

Adhered the background on to a pink top fold base card and added all the images using different heights of foam tape.

Designer's Choice Cards with Isha and Kavya

Hello everyone! Isha here with a mixed media card as my designer's choice feature today. I love creating layers while still keeping it one layer. So I used various stamps and dies, even used the dies as stencils.

I started by creating the background panel by adding some inks to the gelli plate. Take the print onto a white card. I then stamped the butterflies from the Watering Can stamp, using the pink ink. Die-cut the leaves from the Spring Greenery dies, use these as a stencil to sponge some leaves onto the panel. Flick some black watercolor.

Stamp the butterflies from the Watering Can stamp, add touch of color using copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Add spectrum noir clear sparkle pen. die-cut leaves from the Summer Greenery dies, thrice from the white card and also vellum. Die-cut the oval from the Scalloped Oval Mat 3 dies, die-cut the word hugs in the center. Sponge some pink ink to the edges.

Die-cut the speech bubble from pink and yellow card using the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles dies, adhere the yellow to the pink slightly offset. Stamp the sentiment. Adhere the panel to the white card and adhere all the elements to it. I used 3d foam on some for added dimension.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with another fun project! I love the layering stamps from SSS as they are just so realistic and so easy to use! 

I decided to pull out some of my favorite layering stamps from the latest release and create a fun 3D bouquet of flowers with the help of Lawn Fawn’s Platform die. I first created my platform base using LF’s die and some cardstock. 

Then, I stamped and die cut the flowers and butterflies from Lovely Lilacs and Watering Can stamp sets. I added this to the platform die with the help of some double sided tape and some clear acetate (for support). I decided to not add a sentiment so that I can use it for any occasion. That’s it!

I hope you loved this super fun and easy project! Happy Crafting!

Watering Can Cards with Marieke and Marine

Hello Sunny Studio friends, Marieke here. Today I hope to inspire you with an underwater card. 

As always I made the background first. I ink blended the colors Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon and adhered the panel onto a white topfold base card. 

Die cut the watering can using the Watering Can dies and colored it up using my Copic markers. Then I stamped the inner second layering stamp out of the Watering Can stamp using a black ink. Heat set the sentiment that comes in the set using white embossing powder.

Used Copic Colors:
Sand - E57, E55, E53, E51, E50
Green - YG67, YG63, YG03, YG01
Yellow - Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11
Pink - RV17, RV14, RV13, RV11
Stones - W6, W4, W2, W1

Teal - BG15, BG13, BG11, BG10

Watering Can - N10, N8, N6, N5, N3, N2 / YR27

Stamped the images out of Fintastic Friends and Tropical Scenes stamps. Colored them up using my Copic markers and die cut them using the Tropical Scenes and Fintastic Friends dies.

Adhered all the images onto the card using foam tape or glue and finished the card by adding some clear drops.

Hey crafty friends, happy Thursday! Marine here, super happy to be back this week with another stamp layering card! Today I'm showcasing the Watering Can stamp set again, but this time, I'm putting some beautiful sunflowers from the Sunflower Fields stamp set in it. A good way to officially start making fall cards!

I started by stamping the watering can. I wanted it to bring a bold contrast with the sunflowers, so I stamped it using dark blue inks. Next I stamped some sunflowers and leaves, and to make sure that I was layering the stamps correctly, I used the guide on the Sunflower Fields page to help me line up everything. 

And just like the Lovely Lilacs card I shared last week, I used Lawn Fawn dye inks to stamp all the images:
Watering can: blue jay + deep sea
Leaves: celery stick + freshly cut grass + jalapeno

Next step was to create the background. I cut a Quilted Heart Portrait panel out of bristol cardstock, and used salvaged patina, peacock feathers and blueprint sketch oxide inks to color it. I added lots of texture to that panel, and once it was dry, I attached it to a piece of white cardstock.

I stuck the watering can and the sunflowers using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, and next I added my sentiment. I white heat embossed the "Autumn blessings" sentiment from Happy Harvest on black cardstock, trimmed it into a small banner and added a piece of white cardstock to create an outline, and used clear foam squares to stick that banner on the panel.

I attached the panel to a white card base, and finally glued a few clear droplets here and there to bring a touch of shine to the card. And that's it, super pretty and bright, I hope that you like it. I have a process video for you, so feel welcome to watch it for more information (click on the image above). Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next week!
