A Good Egg Pinterest Inspired Easter Card with Eloise

Hello everyone, Eloise here and today I have a card to share using A Good Egg stamp set. It's an older stamp, but a goodie. These images are so super cute and great for Easter cards.

Sunny Studio Stamps: A Good Egg Happy Easter Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I stamped out all my images I wanted to use from the A Good Egg stamp set onto some white cardstock and coloured them all in with Copic markers.

For these particular images, I was stuck on what colours to use, and I generally struggle with this a lot and so when I'm stuck or I want to use sort of a specific colour scheme I turn to Pinterest for colour combos. So for today's images, this is the colour scheme I went with and just added in some orange and a different blue also, since I still felt like something was missing. It's not always exact to the image, but it gives me a starting point. 


Once the colouring was done, I then used all the coordinating dies to cut them all out. Now it was time to work on the background.

For my background I pulled two pieces of watercolour cardstock and die cut them both down with a rectangle die. I then used a grassy hill border on one of the pieces. I used Tumbled Glass Distress Ink on the background for the sky, and Twisted Citron on the grassy piece for the grassy hill. Once my pieces were coloured, I could assemble. 

I used tape adhesive to adhere down my grassy hill onto my background and then foam tape to adhere all my images down. Once everything was adhered I stamped my 'Happy Easter' sentiment from the same A Good Egg stamp set on the top in the centre of my sky piece. Once my panel was complete I added some pink striped patterned paper onto my card base and added two slim strips of green patterned paper onto each side. I added foam tape all along the back of my panel and adhered it on top of the patterned paper and that was my card complete. 

I hope you enjoyed my card today and check back to see the rest of the team make projects with this same stamp set all week. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

An exciting New Addition to the Sunny Studio Family!

I can't tell you how excited I am to finally introduce Laura Vegas as Sunny Studio's new social media coordinator!  She has been helping me out behind the scenes for the past couple of months and she's doing a fabulous job.  Laura is someone I've admired for over a decade for her wonderful sense of style and for our mutual love of memory keeping.   We share so much in common and I just know you are going to love her as much as I do!  I honestly still can't believe I was lucky enough to have her say yes.  ;)



Hi there! I’m Laura Vegas, from Northern California, where I live with my husband Joe, and my two daughters, Alyssa (20) and Sarah (17). I have been scrapbooking for well over 23 years now. I scrapbook mostly about my girls and our family, but like to mix it up now and then by scrapping photos and stories about my daycare kids and family friends as well. I have been fortunate enough to design for some amazing manufacturers in the industry over the last 11 years, and have also had my work published in a variety of publications for the last 10 years. I was honored to be a member of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Creating Keepsakes Dream Team and the 2013, 2014 and 2015 Scrapbook & Cards Today design team.

Friends & Family Floral Wreath Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a simple sweet flowery card starring Friends & Family stamp. I think it's a perfect ambiance for spring time.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Friends & Family Floral Wreath Card by Lexa Levana

I start my card with a piece of 4.25"x5.5" white cardstock and embossed it with tiny triangles pattern. I use a matching piece of gold foil patterned vellum to add more interest. For the floral wreath, first I trace a circle with pencil then stamped various flowers from Friends & Family stamp with purple and pink dye ink and some green leaves.

Vintage Jar and Friends & Family Happy Birthday Card with Vanessa

Hi everybody! Vanessa here with a mason jar full of pretty flowers! I combined Vintage Jar and Friends & Family to create this happy birthday card.


Sunny Studio Stamps: Vintage Jar and Family & Friends Happy Birthday Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I first covered a blue card base with blue patterned paper. Now I stamped the mason jar and all the flowers and leaves onto white cardstock, die-cut them with the coordinating Vintage Jar dies and Friends & Family Flower dies, and arranged them on the card. For more dimension, I adhered some of the pieces with foam tape. Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Blissful Baking onto a strip of dark blue cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it to the card.

To create the background, I used shades of blue from Kuretake Gansai Tambi on watercolor paper. For the front panel, I die-cut patterned paper with a rectangle die and then cut the center with an oval die.

Next, I trimmed heat resistant acetate and stamped the sentiment and the water ring using Versamark ink. Then, I heat set it with white embossing powder and adhered the acetate behind the shaker window. After adding two layers of foam adhesive behind the front panel, I placed the sequins and adhered it to the watercolor paper.
