Perfect Popsicles Well Wishes Card with Karin

Hi everyone, it's Karin here. I'm back to share a new card that I've created with Perfect Popsicles, from the new release! It is a wonderful release - you can combine many/all of the sets to create cute and fun summer themed cards!

The Perfect Popsicles set is really perfect. I could stamp a hundred and still be amazed at how easily they come together to build a 3D image, once I stamp my last layer. They are fast and easy to create with and will be awesome for so many different kinds of projects. I can see them being perfect not only for birthday cards and for invitations to summer parties, but also for simple "pop by to say hi" cards. 

And the Heartfelt Wishes set is a must have. So great to use together with the Wishes die, to create lots of different and very useful sentiments. I just love it.

Pirate Pals Encouragement Card and Video with Eloise

Hello everyone! Eloise here and today I have a card and video showing you how to make this fun card I made using the Pirate Pals stamp set along with the Island Getaway stamp set. I was completely inspired by Mendi, to use the Island Getaway stamp set with Pirate Pals, it's a great combination!

To begin my card today I first pulled a piece of Woodgrain Embossed Paper and ink blended over it with brown Distress Inks. I flicked some water over top, picked it up with a cloth and heat set it. I then stamped my images from Pirate Pals and Island Getaway and coloured them in with Zig Clean Colour Markers. Once they were all coloured I heat set them with my heat tool and then cut them out with the coordinating dies.

While I had my Big Shot Machine out I cut a rounded frame die from some white cardstock and also used the Stitched Scallop dies to die cut the inner piece into two pieces as well.

I used some blue Distress Inks to colour in the two die cut pieces and then adhered them onto my card panel flat. I used some foam adhesive to pop up the entire frame and then adhered my images also.

I used the 'Yo Ho! Way to Go' sentiment from Pirate Pals and white heat embossed it onto some black cardstock and then foam mounted it to my panel also. I then adhered my entire panel onto my white card base and the card was complete.

The video is linked down below, also! Thanks so much for stopping by today and I'll be back again next week!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Maria Peters

I'm so excited to welcome Maria Peters to the blog today as our special guest. She has some gorgeous cards that you are going to just love! 

Hello Crafty Friends! I’m so happy and excited to be a guest designer for Sunny Studio Stamps today. Thank you so much for the invitation, Mendi! I made three cards with two stamp sets from the new release - Two Scoops and A Bird's Life.

For my first card, I used the delicious Two Scoops stamp set. I stamped some scoops and wafers in all rainbow colors with Distress Inks in a half circle on a piece of watercolor cardstock. Then I added some ink to the background. I die cut a half circle from pink cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. After mounting the card front onto the card base using dimensional foam tape, I embellished the card with ink splatters and some clear droplets. A little bit of Perfect Pearls mist brings shimmer and finished the card.

For my second card, I used super cute A Bird’s Life stamp set. I die cut six squares and stamped six little scenes. After I watercolored all of the pieces, I stamped two sentiments from the set onto black cardstock and then heat embossed them with white embossing powder. Then I mounted all pieces on the card front using dimensional foam tape. I added lots of sequins to finish the card.

For my third card, I used again the sweet Two Scoops stamp set. I stamped the soft serve ice cream and the wafers randomly on a piece of white cardstock using several dye inks. Then I stamped the sentiment on craft cardstock and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I embellished the card with some twine and lots of clear sparkling sequins. Then I mounted the card front onto the card base using dimensional foam tape.

Have a wonderful day! Love, Maria.

Magical Mermaids Watercolor Shaker Card with Lexa

Hello crafty friends! Lexa here with a card featuring my favorite stamp set from the new release, Magical Mermaids. I always have a thing when it comes to magical creatures. No wonder that my favorite Disney's classic movie is The Little Mermaid, as I looove mermaids so much.

I started my card with a piece of 4.25" x 5.5" watercolor paper, and then created the background with Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolor palette. It has so many vibrant colors, and the pigmentation is amazing. To create a magical ambiance I choose blue and purple for the under the sea scene. I also paint some seaweeds and corals to complete my background. 

I stamped all my images with black Versafine ink and colored them with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring I used the coordinating dies and my Big Shot to die cut them all. I paired Magical Mermaids with Ocean of Joy, as they perfectly compliment each other in case your mermaids need some sea friends.

The shaker card is always my favorite kind of interactive card, the sound of the beads are delightful. I also attached the purple octopus in the middle with a string so that it can wiggle around when you shake the card, it so much fun!

I first trimmed a panel from the striped patterned paper and adhered it to the card. Then I tied on the baker's twine and adhered the project life card with foam tape. Now I stamped the images and die-cut them with the coordinating Two Scoops dies. After I had adhered them to the card, I added sequins and wood veneer hearts. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today! See you next Thurday!
