Petite Poinsettias Tree Branch Background Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a Christmas card featuring the brand new Petite Poisenttias Stamps mixed with the old Holiday Style Stamps.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Petite Poinsettias Tree Branch Background Card by Lexa Levana

I started this card with the background. I gold embossed the tree branch and resist blended some Distress Inks (Mowed Lawn, Evergreen Bough and Peacock Feather) before splashing some water over it for the cool watercolor effect. I just love it.

I stamped the poinsettias with two tone red dye ink and brown for the last layer. I got some help from my stamping tool for building layered stamps. They look so pretty. You can create a lot of this style for holiday seasons, they are so easy to work out with. I also add some flat gold stars from Pretty Pink Posh for accent.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you like today's card and have an amazing day.

Polar Playmates Arctic Winter Birthday Card with Vanessa

Hi everybody! Vanessa here today with a card using Polar Playmates. These arctic cuties are irresistible, don't you agree? Here comes my winter birthday card:

Sunny Studio Stamps: Polar Playmates Arctic Winter Birthday Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I first inked the front of my card with blue inks to create the water and the sky and stamped the sentiment. Now I stamped the island from Island Getaway, trimmed it and adhered it to the right corner.

I wanted the seal to sit on a float, so I just used the ice hole stamp, fussy-cut the image and adhered it the other way round. Then I stamped the images onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut them with the matching diesFinally, I adhered the seal, the bow and the fish with foam tape. 

Thank you so much for stopping by! See you next week!

Christmas Home Winter Interactive Card with Francesca

Hi everybody and welcome back to the Sunny Studio blog! Franci here with you today with a winter interactive card, featuring the Christmas Home set. Here's what I created.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Christmas Home Winter Car with Christmas Tree Interactive Card by Francesca Vignoli 

I love the Christmas Home stamp set sooo much! These little houses are so pretty and festive! The decorations are amazing, and there are so many details and little elements to build your perfect winter town/village scene. And you do have to be patient with the coloring, but it's so worth, I promise! Ha!

I decided to create a slider card for today since there's a little car in the set that's bringing a little Christmas tree home. The sentiment "from our house to yours" was the perfect match.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Christmas Home Winter Car with Christmas Tree Interactive Card by Francesca Vignoli 

First I stamped all of the images I planned to use in my scene with Memento tuxedo black ink. I then colored them with Copics and die cut them with the coordinating dies. I die cut two rectangles and colored the first with distress inks (Salty Ocean and Blueprints Sketch) to create my sky, and I created a little snow hill with the second one.

I stamped the "Merry Christmas" sentiment with Versamrk ink and embossed it with a silver power. Always make sure to check that your background is completely dry and use an anti static powder tool when embossing! Then I drew some snowflakes with a white gel pen to create a snow-fall effect.

I also stamped the other part of my sentiment with the same black ink that I used before. I created the slider mechanism and put it all together with double foam adhesive and a dime. You can see in the photos, the little car goes back and forth spreading Christmas Cheer!

Once I fixed the snowy hill with the interactive element, I glued down all the other images with liquid glue and foam to create even more depth and dimension on my card. 

Hope you liked my project and thank you so much for stopping by today! See you next week and be sure to come by tomorrow for more inspiration from the other designers!

Frosty Flurries Winter Themed Shaker Box Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny Studio fans! Nancy here today with a closer look at the Frosty Flurries stamp set. I love a good background stamp and this one really delivers! I put it to work on this detailed background for a wintery shaker box.

​The watercolored background was created with Distress Oxide Broken China and filled with tiny star and clear sequins. The acetate was stamped all over with the Frosty Flurry stamp and embossed in white. This gives the card an extra layer of fun movement and a really interesting background!

Next, a beautiful little house from the Christmas Home stamp set was watercolored with Distress Inks and placed front in center. The tree and lamppost are also from the same stamp set. A simple title from the Jolly Gingerbread stamp set embossed in white completes this fun card!

I hope this inspires you to create a wintery Christmas shaker box of your own! Don't forget to pick up the Frosty Flurries stamp set - it's a good one!

Playful Polar Bears Galaxy Background Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Playful Polar Bears stamp set along with alcohol Inks to create a galaxy background on a Christmas card. I'm loving this new release, I hope you are too!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Playful Polar Bears Galaxy Background Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I first worked on my background. I pulled a piece of Yupo paper and my alcohol inks out. I'm using some alcohol inks from Ranger today in a blue, pink, and purple to create a more bright galaxy background. I'm using tips and tricks from my friend Niki - since I've struggled with alcohol inks a lot and learned from her to do them in layers, so I followed her steps using some Isocol alcohol, but any alcohol solution will work fine. I dripped on my colors, then dripped on the alcohol over top. Let them move around, then also let them dry ever so slightly, and then repeated the process until I got the desired effect. Once I got my background to a point there I liked it, I then splattered some alcohol off the stick of my sprayer bottle to sort of get that water splotch effect I love ever so much with my Distress Inks. I then set aside my piece to completely dry and moved onto my coloring.

I stamped the one polar bear on ice skates with some black ink along with the present and hat and colored them in using Copic Markers. This was super easy today since I used colors from my background. Once they were colored, I die-cut them out with the coordinating dies

Next up I cut my card base from some Woodgrain White cardstock and then cut a white piece and my background piece with a scalloped circle die. I then cut the white piece down to a hill and adhered them together. I used fun foam and adhered the circle onto the side of my card and cut off the excess, then used foam tape and adhered my polar bear and additional images. For my sentiment, I used the Jolly Gingerbread set and white heat embossed the 'Merry Christmas' sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock, and adhered that down to my card also. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my card today!
