Sunny Sentiments Encouragement CAS Card with Heidi

Hello everybody! Heidi here!  This week we are introducing the "Sunny Sentiments" stamp set so I created this encouragement card, using a very clean and simple approach. I also use the "Sunshine word" die.  I hope you'll enjoy today's card.

For this card, I masked a portion of the front panel, then I placed a sun rays stencil and inked the stencil using distress inks. I picked this fabulous encouragement sentiment from the "Sunny Sentiments" stamp set and stamped on the center of the stenciled portion of the card. I cut the "Sunshine word" die using yellow and black card stock and placed them on an offset to create the illusion of a drop shadow on the word die. I adhered the die-cut panel to the card and lastly I added some sequins as a finishing touch.

Sunny Sentiments You Are My Sunshine Card with Melissa

Hello everyone, Melissa here! Today I have a card to share using Sunny Sentiments!  I paired it with the Backyard Bugs stamp set to create a cute mini scene. 

Sunny Studio: You Are My Sunshine card by Melissa Bowden (using Sunny Sentiments & Backyard Bugs stamp sets)

To create this card I first die cut a small square out of white paper. I stamped all the images where I wanted them, masking off the lady bugs and flower to add the grass. After they were all stamped I colored the whole scene with Copic markers. I adhered the scene to a piece of white paper with a patterned paper border and added the sentiment from Sunny Sentiments.

That completes the card!  I hope you enjoyed it.  Thanks for stopping by!

Sunny Saturday Share: Rain or Shine Rainy Day Cards

 

Hello there!  Popping in today with some cute cards I spotted on the web in the past couple of weeks using our Rain or Shine stamps and coordinating dies:)

Up first is a darling card by Lori Uren (spotted on instagram at LoriUren).  Loving her yellow and royal blue color scheme which happens to be a personal favorite of mine and the darling little scene she has created!

Up next is a fun card by my online scrappy friend Jo Williams at Jo's Scrap Shack.  Love how she paper-pieced her images using cute papers from Doodlebug's Sugar Shoppe collection and the way she added glossy accents to her puddles and raindrops!  :)

Guest Designer Spotlight: Spring Cards with Kay Miller


I'm so excited to welcome another guest to the blog today, the amazing Kay Miller!!!  Many of can probably recognize her adorable style before even seeing her name.   I love every creation she makes and am honored that she's here sharing her talents with us.  Take it away Kay...

Hello! I am so excited to share a couple of cards made with the adorable new spring stamps from Sunny Studio Stamps! 


On my first card I used the cute new  A Good Egg stamp set. I colored everything with Copic markers and fussy cut them out. They have matching dies available, but I didn't have them for this card. For my background I blended some Salty Ocean and Cracked Pistachio Distress Ink onto watercolor paper and sprinkled with water. When that was dry, I cut it out with a stitched rectangle die. I then stamped the sentiment in black ink, added the little paper patterned border to the bottom, and adhered this stitched panel to an A2 top folded white card base.

My next card features a super cute stamp set called Backyard Bugs. It has some really cute sentiments in it as well as adorable little critters! I watercolored the background with some Peerless watercolors to create a sky for my little scene. The grass is cut out of some patterned paper and glued down to the watercolored panel. All of the stamps were colored with Copic markers, fussy cut out, and adhered with foam tape. I stamped the sentient on a banner and adhered it and the whole panel to a white card base.

Sending My Love Valentine Note Cards with Elise

Hi everyone! It's Elise again to share a cute set of note cards that feature Sunny Studio Stamps "Sending My Love" stamp set and die

Sunny Studio: Valentine's Day Sending My Love Note Cards by Elise Constable (using Sending My Love stamps & Sunny Sentiments dies)

I wanted to make something that would be easy to slip into a lunch box or tie onto a gift for Valentine's day, and this set is the perfect set to use!  I stamped and colored the images with Prismacolor pencils, and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I added some blue ink to the background for the sky, and I also used the "Sunny Sentiment" dies to cut some grass from green card stock. I glued the images to the scene, and stamped the sentiment in black ink.

Here is a close-up of one of the cards. The hands and head are attached with foam tape so that they stand out against the scene.
