Backyard Bugs Home Sweet Home Card with Elise

Hi there! It's Elise here this morning to share a "new home" card that features the "Backyard Bugs" stamp set and dies!

I started by stamping the images on white card stock and coloring them with Copic markers. I added the two smaller mushrooms on the sides to give the little ladybugs a bigger house!

For this card, I also used the "Sunny Borders" set for the banner, and the "Happy Home" set for the sentiment. I had to do some selective inking to get the sentiment arranged the way that I wanted for the banner. I also attached the images with foam tape, and I used two layers of foam for the banner so that it really stood out on the card. Here is a close up:

I hope you like the card! Thanks for stopping by this morning! :)

Backyard Bugs Polaroid Thanks Card by Marion

Hello again. Marion here with another card using the simply adorable Backyard Bugs stamp set. I also used the cloud stamp from the Rain or Shine set. I just love to frame any little scene I create, so a polaroid die from my stash did just the trick.

All the images were stamped, fussy cut and coloured with Copic markers. Once I had assembled my scene, I popped it up on some foam tape before mounting it to my card base, which I covered with some patterned paper.

Backyard Bugs Fluttering By To Say Hi Card with Heidi

Hello there!  Heidi here today with a card using the Backyard Bugs Stamps and coordinating dies.  :)

Sunny Studio Stamps: Backyard Bugs Fluttering By To Say Hi Butterfly Card by Heidi Criswell.

To start my card I colored all my images using Copic markers.  I then created my background by blending a piece of watercolor paper with Cracked Pistachio, Mowed Lawn, Squeezed Lemonade, Tumbled Glass, and Peacock Feathers distress inks using a foam applicator.  After the colors were blended, I splattered the panel with water and used a paper towel to pick up some of the color where the drops had been.

I finished off my card with a die-cut frame popped up with foam dots for added dimension.

Backyard Bugs Little Snail Mail Card with Melissa

Hello everyone, Melissa here! Today I have a card to share using the stamp set Backyard Bugs (and the letter from Sending My Love). This set is my favorite from the spring release, it is so good for making scenes and the little bugs are too cute!  
Sunny Studio: Backyard Bugs Snail Mail Card by Melissa Bowden.

To make this card I first stamped the sentiment on the top of a small rectangle of white card. I wanted to do this first so I knew exactly how much room I had to fit my scene. I then stamped and masked all of the images, starting in the foreground and working my way back. I then removed all of the masks and colored the images with Copic markers. To finish up the card I attached it to a piece of yellow patterned paper.

I hope you enjoyed the card for today and that you love this stamp set as much as I do! Don’t forget to check back for more inspiration!

Sunny Saturday Share: Spring & Easter Themed Cards



Happy Saturday!  Today I'm popping in with some awesome Easter cards spotted on instagram this past week.

Up first we have a couple cards by the talented Lindsey Sams (@baileyl5) using our A Good Egg Stamps and coordinating dies.

When I saw this darling card I literally squealed.  How clever is it to stack all the eggs together with the chick on top?!  I love her beautiful coloring and the fun glittery accents she added to the eggs with a wink-of-stella pen (you might have to visit her feed to see the beautiful close-up shots to fully appreciate all her beautiful details).  ;)

Her second card is equally adorable.  I am loving the fun die-cut scalloped borders in her background and how it ties together all the colors in her images!

I also adore these sweet cards by Sarah Elliott (sarahelliott76 on Instagram) using the same A Good Egg Stamps.  :)

She shares a fun video on how she created these on her YouTube channel HERE.  I found her so soothing to listen to her creating and explaining her process while I worked. She's a wonderful teacher!  :)

Last, but certainly not least I spotted this darling card by Tanya Adams (studio5380 on Instagram) using our Backyard Bugs stamps.  I am so smitten with her color scheme.  Pink and green is one of my favorite combinations and with pink mushrooms it's even better!  Loving her sweet die-cut lace border and her beautifully colored grass too!  :)

I hope the rest of your weekend is happy!  :)
