Barnyard Buddies Hilltop Barn Scene Card with Vanessa

Howdy y'all! Vanessa here with my first card using the new release! I think the Barnyard Buddies set is hilarious and enjoyed playing with this set first. Here is what I came up with.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Barnyard Buddies Hilltop Barn Scene Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I started with a panel of light blue cardstock. Then I trimmed a green panel the same size and cut a hill from it. After I had assembled the background, I die-cut two clouds using the Little Angels dies, adhered them to the panel and adhered the panel to the white card base. Now I stamped all the images, colored them with Copics, die-cut them with the coordinating dies and adhered them to the card, using foam tape to pop some up.

For the fun flag, I stamped the "howdy!" onto a strip of patterned paper, notched one end, trimmed it and adhered it to a toothpick before tucking it behind the hen.

I hope you like these cute images as much as I do! Thank you for stopping by today!

Barnyard Buddies Funny Farm Themed Card with Nancy

Hey Sunny Studio fans, Nancy here today with a funny farm card using the new Barnyard Buddies stamp and die set. I love that this set has so many versatile sentiments and icons. I'm using it here for a non-themed, "hello" card but I could've easily added a bouquet of balloons and the birthday sentiment for something a little bit different.

I started the card with two circles to corral the colored icons. The horse in the larger circle and the cow in the smaller one are magnified by the circular shape. While the barn in the lower left corner sets the stage. A simple sentiment in the center connects the design. All of the images were colored with Copic markers.

The cute little peep (which comes facing in both left and right directions - yay!) was stamped just above the sentiment. If you look closely, you can see a trail of tiny footprints where our peep has walked back and forth across the card. A sprinkle of tiny sequins to fill in the space between the horse and the peep completes the card.

Hello everybody, it's Amy here! In the honor of the CASEology's challenge blog's 5th birthday blog hop, I created two cards to share with you. My cards feature the balloon theme, with two of the cutest farm animal from Sunny Studio Stamps newest release for fall.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Missing Ewe and Barnyard Buddies CAS Balloon Themed Cards by Amy Yang

For the first card, I trimmed a top folding A2 card base using Neenah 110 cardstock. I stamped adorable sheep from Missing Ewe stamp set to the front of the card base. Then, I used a balloon stamp from Oceans Of Joy and applied the masking technique to make the blue balloon appear in front of the other two.

To make the sheep look like it's flying, I drew in the strings with a black Copic liner and colored the images with Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment "Thank Ewe" from the Missing Ewe set with Versamark ink on a small strip of black cardstock and heat embossed it in white. I mounted the sentiment with foam tape.

For the second card, I made a 4-1/2" square card base using the same cardstock. This time, I stamped the pig from Barnyard Buddies with a balloon from Birthday Smiles. I added white accents with a Gelly Roll pen.

I drew in the strings with a Copic liner to make the pig look like he's flying too. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment "Happy Birthday" from Barnyard Buddies.

Autumn Greetings Layered Pumpkins Card with Eloise

Hi everyone! Eloise here and today I have a fall card for you all, using the brand new Autumn Greetings and Pretty Pumpkins stamp sets. I'm also pulling in the new Quilted Hexagons set as well. I am absolutely loving this new release - Mendi has knocked it out of the ball park once again with her amazing designs. Also, this Pretty Pumpkins is the newest layering set in the collection, which I am so super excited about - since the layering sets are always so so amazing!


Sunny Studio Stamps: Autumn Greetings Layered Pumpkins Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today, I first clear heat embossed the large hexagon line image from the Quilted Hexagon stamp set three times at a diagonal on the bottom of my watercolour piece. Once that was heat embossed, I used some green watercolour to watercolour over top to reveal the embossing. I dried it off with a heat tool and moved on to stamping my images.

I used four different orange inks to stamp the layers of my pumpkins. I did one of each size included in the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set. I also stamped some leaves and vines also. Then before stamping the stems on the pumpkins, I die cut all my images using the coordinating dies. Once the pumpkins were die cut I used some brown inks to stamp out the stems - it's easier this way since you then know exactly where you want to stamp the stems. Once everything was stamped I could arrange my card.

I used foam tape and liquid adhesive to adhere down all my pumpkins, leaves and vines. Once they were all adhered I stamped the 'Autumn Greetings' sentiment from the Autumn Greetings stamp set out onto my background with black ink and clear heat embossed that too. To finish up my card I added fun foam to the back of my panel and adhered down my panel to some orange cardstock and then onto a white card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed my card today and are enjoying the new release!
