Halloween Cuties Pumpkins Card by Lexa

Hi there!  Lexa here today with a Halloween card combining the new Halloween Cuties stamps with the pumpkins from the Harvest Happiness set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Halloween Cuties & Harvest Happiness Card by Lexa Levana.

I started with a 4.25" x 5.5" panel of white smooth cardstock, and created a mask for the background scene. I blended some Mowed Lawn Distress ink as the grass, Chipped Sapphire and Dusty Concord for the sky. I stamped all the images with black Versafine ink on a piece of watercolor paper and colored them with Distress Markers. I slit the hands to make it hold a treat bag properly.

I also add some white dots with a gel pen to complete the starry night sky. For the card base, I use an eggplant color cardstock and die cut it with a scalloped rectangle for an extra cuteness.

Woodsy Creatures Hedgehog Card with Vanessa

Hello, dear Sunny Studio friends!  Vanessa here with another fall card using the new Woodsy Creatures stamp set. I just couldn't resist this cute hedgehog!


Sunny Studio Stamps: Woodsy Creatures Hedgehog Card by Vanessa Menhorn.

For my fall themed cards, I like to use yellow and orange for my backgrounds. Here I applied yellow and orange dye ink with an ink blending tool to a panel of watercolor paper and added drops of ink. Then I stamped the sentiment from "Woodsy Creatures" with dark brown ink and adhered the panel to a Kraft card base. 

I stamped the hedgehog and the tree trunk from the same set onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics and fussy-cut them before I adhered them to the card with foam tape. The little mushroom was die-cut from white cardstock and colored with Copics. I thought it would be fun to let the hedgehog carry an apple, so I gave him the one from the "Summer Picnic" set.

That's it from me for today! I hope you liked my little hedgehog card! Thanks for stopping by!

Woodsy Creatures Card With Circular Windows by Lindsey

Hi Lindsey here! Today I have another card featuring the fun and adorable Woodsy Creatures stamp set. I just can't get enough of these sweet little critters. They are so fun to work with, so let's get started!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Woodsy Creatures Fox, Chipmunk, Squirrel & Raccoon Card by Lindsey Sams.

To begin, I cut an A2 sized rectangle from some fall patterned paper. Next I cut two smaller rectangles, one from Kraft and one from some woodgrain paper. I thought these would go nicely with the woodland theme. Then, I cut three different sized circles into the woodgrain rectangle. These will act as windows for the critters and the sentiment. In order to know where to stamp, I traced the inside of each circle with a pencil onto the Kraft rectangle. 

Next, I picked my critters and sentiment and stamped them in the circles I traced on the Kraft. Once all my images were stamped, I colored all the images and around the edge of the circles using Prisma colored pencils. I haven't had a lot of experience using these pencils, and I still need some practice, but I thought the critters turned out pretty cute. Finally, I added a some sequins for a little sparkle and popped up the woodgrain panel on the card base.

That's it for me today. I hope you enjoyed my card and will continue to check back to the blog for more inspiration. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
