Background Basics Puppy Themed Birthday Tags with Franci

Hello there! Franci here with you today with 2 little birthday tags. I was inspired by the new Background Basics set to create a simple tag design. I thought these backgrounds would pop up nicely with a clean look and white cardstock.

First, I created the two tags using the Tag Topper dies and the Ric Rac Border diesThen I stamped my favorite dog from the Party Pups set twice, colored them with Copics and die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I stamped the background stripes with Spice Marmalade and Broken China Distress Oxide inks and let them dry.

I also stamped the sentiment from the Party Pups set and glued down the dogs with foam tape. Finally, I added some ribbon and twine.

Hope you like them and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Beach Babies Sunny Smiles Summer Themed Card with Juliana

Hello friends! It's Juliana Michaels and today we're heading to the beach to soak up some sun with the adorable Beach Babies stamp set. The warm weather is finally arriving where I live and it definitely has me in the mood for the beach.

I began to work on the design of the card by stamping several of the adorable images from the Beach Babies stamp set. I then colored them with Chameleon Pens and die cut them using the coordinating dies. While I was stamping and coloring, I came up with the idea that it might be fun to create a little beach scene for my Beach Babies!

To create the beach scene, I began by creating a cloudy sky background using a stencil and Distress Ink. I then stamped the sand border from the Oceans of Joy stamp set with brown ink onto a piece of kraft cardstock and die cut it using the coordinating dies. I added a bit of Distress Ink to this piece as well to give it a bit of interest.

Once the background was complete, I added the stamped images. I used double sided foam adhesive tape to pop up some of the images and give the scene a bit of dimension. I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Beach Babies stamp set as well, onto a banner die cut using the Fancy Frames Rectangle dies. To complete the beach scene, I added the sun from the Sunny Sentiments stamp set.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! We can't wait to see what kind of beach scenes you create and share with us.

Berry Bliss Dotted Embossed Background Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Berry Bliss set to create a friendship card. I love Mendi's layering sets so much and I think I have a new favourite. Especially because I can use lots of bright colours. This set is super unique and fun and so easy to create with!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Berry Bliss Dotted Embossed Background Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I first started out with my background. I used a Dotted Embossing Folder from We R Memory Keepers and ran it through my big shot machine with a white piece of cardstock. I set it off to the side and started stamping. I pulled out a ton of Altenew Layering Inks for all my layers today, since they're in sets already for me and stamped them out. My biggest tip is to use an eraser on each layer of stamp to get a really nice clean impression. I find that this just preps the stamp a bit and gives a smoother coverage. Second tip is to stamp the main fruit first, so for the strawberries, stamp all but the leaves, same for the cherries and blackberries. Then, use the coordinating dies to cut them out and then proceed to stamp the leaves/stems. This ensures you get perfect alignment of them. 

(Inks Used: Rouge, Crimson, Velvet - Cherries / Cotton Candy, Coral Berry, Ruby Red, Jet Black - Strawberries / Arctic, Caribbean Sky, Persian Blue - Blueberries / Soft Lilac, Lavender Fields, Deep Iris, Midnight Violet - Blackberries / Bamboo, Olive - Leaves/Stems)

Once they were all stamped and die cut I added foam tape to the backs of them and adhered them onto my embossed background. I just fitted them in where I could and once I was happy with how they looked, I moved onto my sentiment. I white heat embossed the 'Hi Sweetie' sentiment from the set onto a black strip of cardstock. I popped that up on foam tape too and my card was complete.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you love this set as much as I do and are inspired and I'll catch you next time!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Anita Madden

Hello everyone, it's Anita Madden here! I’m so excited to be guest designing for Sunny Studio Stamps today!  I love this latest release and I used three stamps sets to create today’s cards.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Beach Babies Happy Camper Critter Campout Summer Themed Cards by Anita Madden

I used the Beach Babies stamp set for this card. I also used the palm tree from the Island Getaway stamp set. I colored all the images with Copics and then die cut them using the coordinating dies. I sponged distress inks onto Strathmore paper to create the “sand” and the “ocean waves”. I die cut a large circle in my card front and used a stencil and distress inks to create the clouds behind the waves. I used foam tape to adhere the card front on to my card base, and I used foam tape to adhere all the beach babies and accessories.

I also used the Beach Babies stamp set for this card. The fun pattern paper is from the Rainbow Bright 6x6 Paper. This paper pack is so fun – it’s full of bright patterns. I cut the sentiment tab from paper from the Silly Stripes 6x6 Paper. I colored the boy and his jet ski with Copics and then die cut him using the coordinating dies. I used distress inks to create a wave, and I used distress inks and a stencil to create sun rays on a die cut circle. I adhered the boy with foam tape to add some dimension to my card.

I used the Happy Camper stamp to make this card but went for a night scene on this card.  I colored the camper with Copics and die cut it using the coordinating die. I sponged distress inks on Strathmore paper to create the grassy area, night sky, and the moon. I also die cut the pine trees from the inked paper. I flicked some white acrylic paint on the sky and assembled my card with foam tape. I used white embossing powder and heat-embossed the sentiment.

I used the Happy Camper stamp on this card. The sweet heart pattern paper is from the Rainbow Bright 6x6 Paper. The “grass” was cut from paper from the Striped Silly 6x6 Paper and the sun was cut using paper from the Polka-dot Parade 6x6 Paper. I colored the camper with Copics and die cut it using the coordinating dies. I used distress inks to stencil some clouds onto a die cut circle and adhered the grass. I used foam tape to adhere the camper, sun and sentiment strip. I would love to have a camper just like this one … it would be so much fun!

For my last card I used the Critter Campout stamp set. I colored the skunk, campfire, fox, and tent with Copics and die cut them using the coordinating dies. I used distress inks on Strathmore paper to create the evening sky, grassy area, and lake. The little pine trees were also cut from the inked paper. I added some water drops to the sky. 

I hope you’ve enjoyed my cards and that I’ve inspired you to go get your fingers all inky! 

Thank you so much Mendi for having me as a guest!

Cascading Stars Gold Embossed Starry Night Sky Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a card that's highlighting Cascading Stars Stamp and pair it with my most favorite Critter Campout Stamps. If you're wondering why I always play favorites to critter stamps, it's simply just because I looove animals so much and I feel that I'll never have enough critter stamps in my life .. NEVER! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Cascading Stars Gold Embossed Starry Night Sky Card by Lexa Levana

First of all, I stamp the Cascading Stars twice and gold embossed it on the background. After the gold shines all over my card, I blend some Distress Inks in Chipped Sapphire, Black Soot, Dusty Concord and Seedless Preserves to create night sky. As for the ground I blend Crushed Olive and Mowed Lawn in the bottom part of my card. To set the horizons I also stamp some pine trees in dark grey dye ink.

All images are stamped with Versafine black ink and watercolored with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring, I die cut these three friends and their campfire with the coordinating dies. How adorable is that sleeping bear while his friends sing some lullabies. I love to create a story behind every scenic cards I made. I white embossed the sentiment on black cardstock and use staplers to set it on the fix position.

That's my card for today. I hope you enjoy this post. Thank you so much for stopping by and wish you all a wonderful day!
