Guest Designer Spotlight: An Island Getaway with Stephanie Klauck

Hello, it's Stephanie here and I am so excited to be guest designing on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today! For my card, I used the new Island Getaway stamp set and paired it with the Happy Home stamp set to create a little tropical paradise. ;)

To create my card, I first stamped all the images I wanted to include on my card onto white cardstock with black ink. I coloured all of the images on with Copic markers and then I cut them all out with my scissors. I arranged all of the cut out pieces onto a white cardstock panel to decide how I wanted my scene to look and then I adhered everything with down with adhesive. I positioned everything on the right side of the card and let the leaves of the palm tree hang slightly off the edge for a fun look.

Once I had everything adhered to the panel, I added it to a grey top-folding card base. To add some extra detail and dimension, I added some clear glitter with a Wink of Stella glitter marker to the flowers and the flip flops. I also added Glossy Accents to the flip flip straps and the centers of the flowers. I stamped part of the sentiment on the sandy beach and then stamped the rest of it on the white cardstock panel, directly under the sandy area. To complete the card, I added some clear sequins scattered around my scene with silver Stickles in the centers.

Thanks so much for stopping by the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today! 

Tropical Paradise Sunshiny Day Card with Lexa

Hello everyone!  Lexa here with a bright card using the Tropical Paradise stamp set with a fresh fruity drink as the star. You will in love with this set as it has lots of fun and pretty images.

I started with my 4.25"x5.5" white cardstock, and blended Squeezed Lemonade, Worn Lipstick and Spiced Marmalade together with a grid stencil. As you know that Distress Inks are react well with water so I splashed some onto my cardstock using a wet brush to create the faded effect.

For my images, I stamped them with Black Onyx Versafine (this is my favorite ink for watercolor) and colored them with Distress Markers using watercolor technique. I colored the glass of fruit punch as how I usually see in real life, it has a beautiful ombre color. To add an extra something, I added some flowers and a pineapple as well.

Before I arranged all the pieces together, I stamped the sentiment with the same black ink for a crisp and bold look against the colorful background. I also used some hearts in two different size with pink and orange dye inks. Finally to adhere all the bits together, I added different heights with foam tapes to create fun dimension.

Thanks for looking. I wish you a sunshiny day even it isn't summer yet! :)

Tropical Paradise Cheers Pineapple Drink Card with Vanessa

Hi everyone! Vanessa here with a yummy Tropical Paradise card. I enjoyed playing with this set so much! It makes me want to slice up a pineapple and create juicy drinks :)

I started with a white card base and applied pink ink with an ink blending tool. Then I added drops of the ink with a brush. Now I stamped the images, colored them with Copics and cut them out. I stamped and heat embossed the "cheers" onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it to the card. Then I adhered the images, popping up the drink with foam tape.

I hope you like today's inspiration! Thank you so much for stopping by and Cheers!

Tropical Paradise Soak Up The Sun Flamingo Card with Lindsey

Hi!  Lindsey here today with a card using the adorable set, Tropical Paradise. When I saw this set, I knew that I was going to have to use the adorable flamingo couple!


I made a one layer card by stamping the flamingo pair in the bottom right corner of the card. Then, I stamped a trail of tropical flowers from the top left to bottom right of the card. I finished the stamping by adding the sentiment to the bottom left side of the card. I used Copic markers to create a little pool for the flamingos to stand in and added a few sequins to make my card really sparkle. Finally, I used foam tape to pop my scene up on a striped piece of purple paper.  I just love all the cute tropical themed images in this set!

Thanks for reading, and I hope you'll check this adorable set out!

Tropical Paradise Sending You Sunshine Card by Anni

Hey stampers, Anni here!

This week we are showcasing another fabulous summer set here on the Sunny Studio blog. The Sunshine Word Die goes perfectly with this set called Tropical Paradise.

For this card I stamped, colored with copics and fussy cut the image. You can also get matching dies for this stamp set. But in this particular case I wanted the image without a white border.  By the way I am one of the weird people who loves to fussy cut. I find it quiet relaxing.

After I finished my image I die-cut the sentiment several times from coral cardstock and one time from white card stock. I stacked them up for more dimension. Then I sponged one edge of my card base to get some contrast and color. For finishing touches I added some sequins and glossy accents the glass.

I am getting a little bit thirsty looking at this cocktail, aren't you?

Thanks for stopping by and have a sunny week.
