Snow Kissed Penguin Snowflakes Card with Marion

Hello again. It's Marion here and I appreciate you dropping in on the Sunny Studio blog today. All week the DT have been creating with the Snow Kissed stamp set and today I have some more inspiration for you.

I started by stamping the penguin on the sled and die cutting it with its coordinating die. I die cut two of the images and adhered them together as it is suspended across the window opening on the front of the card, and I wanted it to be more sturdy. The window is a partial die cut of a circle die.



It's a bit easier to see the window opening in this photo. The image was coloured with Copic Markers and these little guys are so much fun to colour!



I stamped some subtle snowflakes from the same set in Versamark ink on the card front, before adhering some of the snowflakes die cuts from white card stock from the coordinating die set.

For the sneak peek of the day, we have a look at a new alphabet set coming soon called "Sweet Script".  This fun set is perfect for creating your own custom sentiments ( which is particularly helpful if English isn't your native language) and also for personalizing your projects and scrapbooks.  :)


Thanks for visiting today,

2015 Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop



Welcome!  I'm thrilled to be a sponsor for the Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!  You should be arriving here from SugarPea Designs or if you are just joining in, you can start at the beginning of the hop HERE.

In honor of the hop I created a special digital stamp set (Please note the digital version is no longer available, but will be available as a stamp set called Mug Hugs on 10/7/16).   I personally am a sucker for a good cup of hot cocoa so I wanted to make sure to create some images that could go either way, along with some fun sentiments to match.

To take advantage of the fact that digital stamps can be sized to whatever size you like, I decided to create a couple of shaped cards by enlarging the images.  Up first is a cup of hot cocoa.  Since I printed these on a regular ink jet printer, I knew the inks could run with Copic Markers and other wet pens so I chose to print them onto some fun Doodlebug patterned papers instead.

For my third card I used a more traditional approach to the digital stamps.  Another bonus to digital images is the ability to easily mirror the image so I used that to create this fun card which I printed out on my laser printer and colored with Copic Markers.  

For my card background I imported the PNG version of the heart file and changed the fill color to a khaki to do a tone-on-tone print on my Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and then accentuated them with a E42 Copic Marker.

I couldn't resist creating one final card with the last image in the set.  I colored the mug to match my Doodlebug paper from their 6x6 Santa's Express pad, adding a little sparkle to the whipped cream using Stardust Stickles.

Snow Kissed Ice Skating Penguin Card with Elise

Hi everyone! It's Elise again to share a fun card that features the Snow Kissed stamp set and dies!



The penguin and ice are stamped onto white card stock and colored with Primsacolor pencils. I also really liked the extra snowflake dies that are included in the die set, so I cut those from white card stock to decorate around the image. For a fun detail, I added clear stickles to the snowflakes and ice! Here is close up on the penguin and glittery snowflakes:



Before I go here's a peek at a new die set coming soon.  This 4-1/2" wide by 4-1/4" high set has hearts of all sizes and creates stitched lines for both the negative and positive spaces,  making it perfect for creating shaped card bases, shaker cards, heart tags and other embellishments!  This die along with the rest of the Spring release will be available for sale on December 26th.



Thanks for stopping by! Stop by again tomorrow for some more inspiration featuring the Snow Kissed stamp set and another sneak peek! :)

Snow Kissed and Sledding card with Audrey



Hi there! Audrey here!  I've really been into purple for winter scenes lately, which it not usual for me, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts! :)  I just love the sledding penguin from the Snow Kissed stamp set, and since I hadn't used him yet, I figured it was time!  

I watercolored a piece of Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor paper with Shaded Lilac and Wilted Violet distress inks, with a hint of the darker purple coming up from behind the snowy hill.  I stamped, colored, and die-cut the penguin with the coordinating Snow Kissed die set.  I popped him up on the hill using foam tape, and stamped a sentiment, also from the Snow Kissed stamp set.  Finally, I stamped some periwinkle snowflakes before adding a scattering of sequins.  There are no rules in card making right? *wink*




That's it for me today!  Hope you enjoyed my card!  

For today's peek at our Spring release we have a first look at a stamp set called "Sunny Borders".  This set is filled with 5 unique borders (which will coordinate with matching dies), 2 shadow stamps, a versatile banner and one sentiment.  It's an all around great basic set whether you're new to stamping or have been doing this a long time.  :)



Be sure to stop back by tomorrow for more inspiration from the design team!  Have a great day!!

Snow Kissed Winter Penguins Card with Heidi

Hello everybody, Heidi here.  Welcome to the Sunny Studio Blog!  This week we are introducing the "Snow Kissed" stamp and its coordinated die set. I had to create this card with these adorable penguins having fun in the snowy hills!

 
For my card I stamped the penguin on the sled and the penguin on the skates, coloring them with Copic Markers.  I then created a winter scene using some snowy hills and mountains and framed them using some patterned paper. 


I hand drew some string from the skater penguin to the sled, so it looks like the skater penguin is pulling the sled up the hill. You could also use real twine whichI think would be neat.  The "Snow Kissed" stamps and coordinated die are available at the Sunny Studio Stamp shop.

Before I go, we have another sneak peek to share with you.  Today is a look at a set designed to coordinating with yesterday's peek called "Sunny Sentiments".  All the images and sentiments are based around the word SUNSHINE!  This is going to be a great staple that will work with so many other sets and is perfect for scene building! 


(Available for purchase on December 26th).

I hope you enjoyed today's card and I wish you a lovely day!
