Sunny Saturday Share: Pineapples, Flamingos & Hibiscus Flowers

Hello Peeps!  How are you doing?  I'm getting so antsy for Monday to arrive when I can finally share all that I have been working on.  Crazy enough I have plans to start creating cards for our mid-August release this weekend, before switching gears and working on designing our Christmas release.  It's funny how it works out that I always have my hands in several different seasons all at once.  ;)  Today I'm popping in with several darling ideas that caught my eye on social media this week...

Backyard Bugs Slider Butterfly Card with Lexa

Hi there crafty friends! I hope you are doing well. Lexa here today with a fun interactive slider card starring Backyard Bugs stamps and dies. I had so much fun creating this one.

I start this card with die-cut a piece of watercolor paper die-cut with a basic stitched rectangle die.  I then scribble some Tumbled Glass and Shabby Shutters Distress Ink on my acrylic block then spray some water to blend it. After the Distress Ink reacted well, I place my watercolor paper on top of it. I love how uneven and imperfect it looks. That's the beauty of watercolor, I think. :)

All the images and sentiment were stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and then I used Distress Markers to color the images. For extra sweetness, I stamp pink hearts on the sky and color them with a soft pink alcohol ink. I finished my card by blending some Spun Sugar Distress Ink on the edges of the card base to match my butterfly's wings color.

The fluttering butterfly is so adorable, even my 4 year old daughter loves to play with it.  I hope you enjoy today's card.

Before I go today we have one last peek for the week to share of a follow-up to the popular Fishtail Banner dies.  This new item will be available for sale on July 1st.  We hope you will come back all next week for more peeks, prizes and inspiration using the new sets!  :)

Thanks for stopping by! :)

School Time Rainbow Crayon Birthday Card with Vanessa

Hello everyone! Vanessa here with a colorful birthday card. The colors of the rainbow make me happy and I love to use them on birthday cards:

I used the fun crayon image from the School Time Stamp set, stamped it multiple times onto white cardstock, colored it with Copics and fussy-cut the crayons. Then I adhered them to the bottom of a white card base and trimmed off the edges. Now I stamped the tiny heart from Tropical Paradise with matching inks above the crayons. I stamped the sentiment from Comfy Creatures and finished the card off with matching sequins. 

Once again, I enjoyed playing with my cute Sunny Studio stamps!  I hope you liked today's inspiration.  

Today we are sharing a sneak peek of the last of four new stamp sets coming out on July 1st.

I'll see you back again soon! Thanks for stopping by!

Backyard Bugs & Woo Hoo Owl Birthday Card with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here. Today I combined Backyard Bugs with Woo Hoo and a sentiment from Comfy Creatures to create a sweet little birthday card. I just love how all the Sunny Studio stamp sets work so well together. There are so many possibilities when you can mix and match images and sentiments from different sets. Let's get started!

I started with a 4 bar size card base made from some brown woodgrain paper. I thought this would go nicely with the little nature friends I planned to use on my card. Next, I cut a slightly smaller stitched rectangle from white cardstock to do my stamping on. I had to do a bit of masking to create my scene but nothing too involved. I decided to use the mushroom house, snail, ladybugs, and bee from the Backyard Bugs stamp set and the owl from Woo Hoo to create my scene. I colored all my images with Copic Markers. I slightly curved the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Comfy Creatures stamp set over the top of the owl's head. 

To finish my scene, I hand drew some grass and outlined my images with a blue Copic marker. I backed the stamped panel with a red scalloped rectangle to make the red in the scene really pop. Finally, I attached the scalloped rectangle to my woodgrain card base with some foam tape. I just love how all these cute little critters worked together. So sweet!

For today's sneak peek we have a "sweet" new set that will be available for purchase on July 1st.

Thanks for reading and be sure to check back to the blog for more fun inspiration! Have a great day!

Happy Summer Tropical Card with Anni

Hey stampers, Anni here!

For today' card I used  A LOT of stamp sets: Island Getaway, Fresh & Fruity and Tropical Paradise. All these fun summer sets...

I went throught my stamp sets and choose all the stamps that screamed summer to me. I put my cardstock in my MISTI, arranged all the stamps as I liked it and stamped all the images at once. For the ink I decided to go with a light tone because I wanted to do some no-line coloring. 

Whenever I have a little bit of time on my hands I love to color with colored pencils. It is my favorite coloring medium because of all these opportunities it provides. But it is a little bit time consuming.  No-line-coloring is still a little bit challenging for me but I love the effect and the totally different look you get.

I stamped the sentiment with black Versafine ink and adhered the piece of cardstock to my card base with dimensional adhesive. For the finishing touches I used some sequins.

Before I go I have a sneak peek to share of a second new stamp set coming out on July 1st.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a sunny week!
