Home Sweet Gnome Slider Card with Franci

Hi there, Franci here with you today to share you a card that I'm in love with! I'm having the best time with the new Home Sweet Gnome set and the Sliding Window die set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Home Sweet Gnome Sliding Window Die Home Sweet Home Card by Franci Vignoli

First, I created my card mechanism out of some white cardstock and this beautiful green pattern paper included in the Amazing Argyle 6x6 paper set. I was inspired by a Jennifer McGuire card to create my own and you can also find a detailed tutorial on how to assemble this card on her YouTube channel. Then I stamped these little gnomes, colored them with Copics, and die cut them with their coordinating dies.

I colored my front panel background with Distress inks to mimic the grass and a cloudy sky. I let it dry and then I embossed the sentiment in gold at the bottom. I glued down all of the images with a combo of liquid glue and foam adhesive, and added some details with a white gel pen to all the images.

I'm totally in love with these little gnomes! This new release is so full of amazing products, and some of my new favorites!

Oh, and I took all of my photos of this card and then I realized that I did not stamp anything on top or add a little bow! Oops! So I added a little heart at the top on my white cardstock and the card is done! 

Hope you like it and thank you so much for stopping by! Have a lovely day!

Fall Flicks Filmstrip Dies Fall Themed Greetings Card with Juliana

Hello friends! It's Juliana Michaels with you today to share an Fall Greetings cards created using the new Fall Flicks Filmstrip die and Greetings Word die. This is the first time I've made a card using only die cuts and it was so much fun!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Fall Flicks Filmstrip Dies Fall Themed Greetings Card by Juliana Michaels

As I was playing around with the new Fall Flicks Filmstrip die, I came up with the idea of create a wreath to decorate the card front. I began by cutting a wreath from kraft cardstock using the middle die from the Fancy Frames Circle die set.

Next, I set about die cutting a bunch of pumpkins and sunflowers from colored cardstock. Initially, I attempted to use the leaves from the Fall Flicks Filmstrip die, however because they were on a stem, I was having difficulty figuring out how to use them. As I looked for another option, I noticed a tiny coordinating leaf die that was part of the Fall Kiddos stamp and die set. The die was the perfect size to use for the sunflowers. After I finished assembling the pumpkins and sunflowers, I added them to the wreath. I used double sided foam adhesive to pop up some of the die cuts. To complete the wreath, I added the sentiment using the Greetings Word die to a white cardstock banner.

Once the wreath was finished and I was looking at the card, it just seemed like it was missing something. That's when I came up with the idea to used the filmstrip part of the die as the background for the card. By cutting it from white cardstock and layering it onto a white card base, it adds a bit of texture and dimension to the background.

I hope you enjoyed this bit of die cut inspiration using the Fall Flicks Filmstrip die and Greetings Word die from Sunny Studio Stamps! Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Happy Harvest Happy Kiddos Fall Themed Card with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Happy Harvest stamp set along with Beautiful Autumn and Fall Kiddos to create a celebrate fall themed card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Happy Harvest Fall Kiddos Beautiful Autumn Fall Themed Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I started off with stamping out my images from Happy Harvest and Fall Kiddos onto some white cardstock. I coloured them in with Copic Markers, die cut them out using the coordinating dies and set them off to the side. Now it was time to work on my layers. I used the Woodland Borders dies and cut out some hills from watercolour cardstock. I then used Distress Inks to ink blend different pieces. I used Shabby Shutters for the bottom grass layer, Mowed Lawn for the middle layer and a mixture of Broken China and Salty Ocean for the sky. Once they were all ink blended I flicked on some water and dried them off with a heat tool.

(Copic Markers Used: R17, R29, R89 / E000, E00, E21 / Y35, YR15, YR18 / Y11, Y15, Y38 / YG61, YG63, YG67 / B21, B24, B26 / E53, E55, E57 / W0, W2, W4, W7 / 0 / E43, E44, E47)

I then added foam tape onto the backs of all my background layers and adhered them together. Next I popped up all my images onto my background using a mixture of foam and flat adhesive and stamped the sentiment from 'Beautiful Autumn' onto the left hand side. To finish off my card I pulled a piece of plaid patterned paper from the new Gingham Jewel Tones paper pad and adhered my panel with more foam tape on top. 

Thanks so much for joining me today, I hope you enjoyed my card today. See you next week!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Leanne West

Hi everyone! Leanne West here today and I am very happy to be back with another guest blog post. I’ve been playing with many of the products from the Fall Release and absolutely loving them!! I have to say fall themed stamps are my favorite but what struck me the most about the new sets was that they don’t necessarily have to be used for making fall themed cards. I’m sharing four cards today that demonstrate my point. 

I’ve used Copic markers to color all the images and the coordinating dies to cut them out. A white gel pen was used to add some highlight detail. My go-to for scene backgrounds is ink blending on Bristol Smooth card stock. To help frame up the these scenes I’ve used the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies and Fancy Frame Circle Dies. All four of my cards are standard A2 size. 

These first two cards feature the Happy Harvest stamp set and coordinating dies. I just love the tree image and made it the focal point on both cards. One is definitely for fall and the other is a thank you card for any time of year.

For the "Autumn Blessings" card I used colors and images indicative of fall. I’ve colored the bottom hill border in a warm shade of green and the leaves on the tree are a mix of green, orange, and yellow. I decided to use the pumpkins and crows to up the fall factor of the scene but really there are so many options within this one stamp set to make many different fall scenes. And I just love that there’s a open space in the tree image to stamp a smiley face.

For the "Heartfelt Thanks" card I used brighter colors for the sky background and a cool shade of green for the hill border. I made the tree an apple tree and turned the crows into bluebirds . For the space in the center of the tree I stamped the heart image that’s included in the set. It looks like the heart is carved right into the tree trunk. I think apples can be for anytime of the year and for anyone. This would be a great teacher thank you card too! 

The next two cards feature the Home Sweet Gnome stamp set and coordinating dies. Once again this set could be used to make fall cards or anytime cards depending on the mix of images and colors used.

For the "What’s Up Gnomie" card I colored the images in “fallish” colors and used some wood grain pattern paper from the new Amazing Argyle 6x6 paper pack. The gnomes and mushrooms are so fun to color and the sky’s the limit with color choices. That’s what makes this stamp set so versatile! As you can see with my next card it has a very different vibe even though I’ve still used a gnome and mushrooms as the focal points.

For this last card I wanted to created a scene with a more summery feel. Switching up the colors to very bright pinks, yellows, greens, and blues helped accomplish that. I used some Classic Gingham 6x6 patterned paper in a coordinating pink to complete the look. 

I also wanted to note - for both of my Gnome cards I used a die from the new Woodland Borders die set to get those perfect rolling hills. 

I can’t say enough great things about these two new stamp sets I’ve used on today’s cards. They are must haves for sure! Thank you for joining me today and big thank you to Mendi for inviting me back. Until next time ;) happy stamping!

Fall Kiddos Friendship Slider Card With Lexa

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a slider card featuring the brand new products from Sunny Studio. You must be agree with me that this release is amazing. So many innovative dies and wide range of adorable stamps. One of my favorite is Fall Kiddos, this stamp set also works so well with other ones as you gonna see in today's card.

With Sliding Window Dies you can create interactive cards in an easy way. It has extra tag dies inside the set too. First, I stamped all of the images with Versafine black ink and watercolored them with Distress Markers. After finished with the coloring I cut each image with the coordinating dies. A little tip from me - you will need the tree dies from Happy Harvest stamp set just because you want to make your life easier. LOL. The coordinating dies cut very detailed, getting every little space in between the branches. 

I used the brand new Preppy Prints and Amazing Argyle paper pad to show you how amazing this patterned papers from Sunny Studio are. Love the bright and subtle colors, and of course, the quality is perfect. Plus they coordinate so well together, you don't have to think much then.

As if there are not enough surprises, you can create another one on top part of the card. This sweet little girl is popping up to say hello with sunflowers beside her.
