Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Wanda Guess

Hi everyone! Wanda Guess here! I'm very happy and excited to be the guest designer today on the Sunny Studio Blog! I'm always delighted to work with the beautiful and fun stamps and dies from Sunny Studio! They are some of the faves in my craft room for sure. For today's post I combined a bunch of different stamp sets and created two cards. One is super bright and cute, and the other is more sophisticated with a neutral palette. I hope you enjoy my projects. Please visit me on my blog sometime! You can find me at A Blog Called Wanda! Let's get to the projects!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Love Monkey Staggered Circles Everything's Rosy Birthday Card Well Wishes Card by Wanda Guess

First up today is a super fun birthday card with those adorable new monkeys! I love them! I stamped and die cut out a bunch of monkeys and vines. I also made them some accessories like cake and party hats! I used the Purrfect Birthday stamp set for those add-ons.

Then, for the sentiment I used the Two Scoops stamp set. Really, when I make cards, I love to mix and match to create my own unique creation. This is a long card - measuring 8" x 4". I love the Staggered Circles die cut and cut that out of a white panel.

I backed the circles with beautiful blue gingham paper. I had fun coloring everything with my Copics in shades of blue, yellow and pink. Who wouldn't want to party with these guys? The top white layer with the circles was mounted to the card using foam tape.

Then I attached the monkeys and vines with foam tape also. Just the right amount of dimension, but not too much that it won't fit into an envelope.

My second project is a card made with lots of neutral colors and the gorgeous Everything's Rosy stamp set. I also used the beautiful Quilted Hearts embossing folder and some brown gingham. This card is an A2 size with a kraft card base.

The flowers were stamped onto cream cardstock. The embossed background is also on cream cardstock. I layered gingham, vellum and kraft for my focal point of the card. I wrapped the kraft layer with pretty natural twine.

I used gold paint to splatter gold flecks onto the cream embossed layer and the small kraft layer. Just a bit of added elegance. I stamped the roses using my MISTI in dark pink and pretty green shades. The sentiment is from the Happy Harvest stamp set!

See - you don't have to only use that set for autumn! The roses and leaves were mounted onto the card with foam tape. I added a few sparkly pink enamel dots to finish it off. 

Big thanks to Mendi for having me as a guest! Have a wonderful day everyone!

Miss Moo Cards with Lexa and Rachel

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a card that featuring Miss Moo Stamps and the coordinating dies. Couple weeks ago I saw the tutorial video on Jennifer McGuire's YouTube channel how to create a side pull on card. It's so easy to make and pretty fun too. So I try to create one for today's blog.

Here's how the card looks like when it's closed. It looks like a regular 4.25"x5.5" card, but actually the message is on the right side of the card.

First, I stamp the cows from Miss Moo and Barnyard Buddies with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. After I finished with coloring I use the coordinating dies and run them through die cutting machine. For the scene background I use Build-A-Tag #1 Dies and cover the top part which has a hole on it with clouds patterned paper.

I white embossed "I udderly adore you" sentiment on a piece of brown cardstock and use the fishtail banner dies from Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies. At the top and bottom part of my card base, I stamped brown polka dots using Background Basics Stamps. I keep the color coordinate red, brown and white to make the little scene pops out more.

Here how it looks like when you fully pull out the side tab. Take a look at these adorable cows. I add glossy accent to the red heart. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you like today's card and have a wonderful day!

Hello everyone! Rachel here and I have a card to share with you today featuring the new Miss Moo Stamp Set combined with the previously released Barnyard Buddies Set.  The cute little Miss Moo Cow goes perfectly with her farm friends from this other set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Miss Moo Barnyard Buddies Woodland Borders Fancy Frames Punny Card by Rachel Alvarado

I created an A6-sized Shadow Box Card that measures at 4 1/2" x 6 1/4" when folded. To start, I cut 2 pieces of white card stock to 7 3/4" x 4 1/2". I then scored each piece along the long side at 1 1/5" & 6 1/4". These two pieces will be the front and back of your shadow box. Simply choose whatever shape you want to die cut into the front piece. I used a square-shaped die to cut my card window.

I stamped all of my images with Copic friendly black ink, colored with Copics and then cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added some grassy hills on the inside of the card using the Woodland Borders Die Set. These grassy strips measured at 5 1/2" (varying heights) and were scored along the 5.5" side at 3/8" and 5 1/8" prior to die cutting my hilly border.

I attached all of my images with liquid adhesive to the inside of the card and used 3D foam adhesive squares to the images on the outside.

This card collapses and fits perfectly into an A-6 sized envelope but fits nicely into a 5x7 as well (shown above).

I hope you enjoyed my card today! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by. Have a wonderful day!
