Just Bee-cause Cards with Eloise and Leanne

Hello everyone, Eloise here and today I have a card to share with you all using the Just Bee-Cause Stamp Set. I paired it with the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies just because they work together so well.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Just Bee-cause Frilly Frames Dies Just Because Card by Eloise Blue

I started off with stamping a ton of the images from Just Bee-Cause and colouring them in with Copic Markers. Once they were coloured; I cut them out. I also cut the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies from two shades of yellow cardstock, too.

(Copic Markers Used: Y00, Y11, Y15, Y19 / B0000, B000, B01 / 0 / W2, W3, W5, W7)

I popped up the entire hexagon panel onto a white card base using foam tape, and then adhered some of the same coloured hexagon die cuts inside using liquid glue. I then took some of the lighter coloured hexagons and adhered them around randomly using foam tape. I then adhered my bees and beehive in place, too.

For the sentiment I white heat embossed ‘Just Bee-Cause’ onto a thin black strip and adhered it onto the card. Lastly, I took some yellow twine and tied a bow around one of the hexagon dividers.

Thanks for stopping by today, see you next week!

Hello there! Leanne here and today we are showcasing a sweet little stamp set called Just Bee-cause. I have always been a big fan of bee themed stamp sets so I was very anxious to play with this one. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Just Bee-cause Frilly Frames Dies Stitched Oval Dies Just Because Card by Leanne West

This card is A2 size. I started with the decorative backdrop of pattern paper and die cut hexagon overlay. The pattern paper I used is from the Colorful Autumn paper pad. I added the Hexagon Frilly Frames, die cut from black card stock, right over top the pattern paper panel. Next I die cut a Stitched Oval from white card stock to build my bee scene onto.

I stamped and Copic colored the bees and hive. I wanted to include some flowers with the scene, so I used sunflower and leaf images from Happy HarvestI adhered the images onto the oval base in an assymetrical arrangement with dimensional foam squares. I knew I wanted to stamp the greeting directly onto the white card stock oval, so I made sure to leave a gap when adding the images.

I stamped "just bee-cause" and the bee trail with black ink. The bee trail and sentiment are included in the Just Bee-cause stamp set. I decided to leave this card more on the simple side to keep the focus on the sweet bee scene. I really loved how this one turned out. I hope I have given you some inspiration today for using these fabulous new Sunny Studio products. I'll see you next week!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Karin Åkesdotter

Hi Everyone! I'm Karin Åkesdotter from Peppermint Patty’s Papercraft and I am so excited to be here to share some cards that I've created with Sunny Studio Stamp’s fall release!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Birthday Card by Karin Åkesdotter

My first card, featuring the Plane Awesome stamp set, is quite fast and simple to make. Make a card base from white cardstock and then cut a background panel that is slightly smaller. Ink the panel using distress inks. I used Faded Jeans and Tumbled Glass.

Then stamp, color and die cut the images using the coordinating dies, and adhere to card with self adhesive tape.

To illustrate the beauty of the new Frilly Frames Retro Petals dies, I created a background panel which I added to a card base made from acetate.

I then decorated a smaller stitched die cut from the summer release Summer Splash paper pad and decorated it with lots of lovely die cuts from Fabulous Flamingos.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Friendship Card by Karin Åkesdotter

For my last card I made my own stencils using a semi circle die and some cloud dies. I then inked my panel center with a sunset sky look using distress ink: Scattered straw, lemonade and Picked Raspberry.

I them stamped my images using the Plane Awesome stamp set, colored and die cut my images using the coordinating dies before adding them to the panel with foam adhesive.

Embossing Folder Focused Cards with Rachel and Lexa

Hello everyone! It's Rachel here and I have a card to share with you today that features both the newly released Moroccan Circle Embossing Folder along with the Plane Awesome Stamp Set!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Fancy Frames Card by Rachel Alvarado

I love the beautiful detail that you can achieve from this embossing folder! I decided that I wanted some contrasting color with my embossed background, so I inked up the flat side of the embossing folder with some Moonstone Ink by Lawn Fawn and ran it (along with a small sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock) through my die cutting machine using my embossing plates. I repeated the process 3 times so that the ink would have even coverage throughout the entire background.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Fancy Frames Card by Rachel Alvarado

I then die cut a stitched scallop circle from white card stock for the center of my card using the Fancy Frames Circle Dies. I added another circle behind this that I had also cut from white card stock (using a basic circle die) and then blended this piece with some Stormy Sky Distress Oxide Ink. I splattered this piece with a little bit of water and then both some diluted white and blue paints once this piece had dried.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Fancy Frames Card by Rachel Alvarado

I heat embossed my sentiment with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder onto a strip of blue card stock and adhered it to the front of my card with some liquid adhesive. For my images, I stamped the plane and the dog from the Plane Awesome Stamp Set (I absolutely love this set!) onto another sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I colored my images with Copic Sketch Markers and then used the coordinating Plane Awesome Dies to cut them out.

That's all for today! Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by! Have a wonderful weekend!

-------------------------------------------------

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a card that will give you an inspiration using an embossing folder. It can add textures and more interests to your cards or projects. Let's get started!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Cruising Critters Cityscape Border Dies Friendship Card by Lexa Levana

I use the brand new Lots of Dots Embossing to create the background. I just simply emboss the plain white cardstock with the polka dots then I blend Distress Inks. For the sunset sky I use Ripe Persimmon, Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade in gradation, then blend Pumice Stone on the bottom part of my card that looks like concrete or street. I use the most adorable stamp called Cruising Critters Stamps, it has eight cute critters from Sunny Studio in one car. I can't stand how cute they are. I stamp it with Versafine black ink and watercolor it with Distress Markers. After finished with the coloring I use the coordinating dies to cut the main image.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Cruising Critters Cityscape Border Dies Friendship Card by Lexa Levana

I want to add a landscape that will create a subtle border between the sky and the ground. I use Cityscape Border Die on black cardstock, I intentionally not remove some of the windows so it looks like some of them are dark. It adds more dimensions. The 'cruising' word is cut on the same black paper and I add a fishtail banner to complete the sentiment.

That's all for today, I hope you have an amazing day! Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Elegant Leaves Cards with Anja and Vanessa

Hello everyone, Anja here and today I'm sharing a card made with the beautiful Elegant Leaves Stamps. Of course this set can be used for fall projects but since we're in the middle of a hot summer, I decided to go with non-traditional colors.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Elegant Leaves Grateful Card by Anja Bytyqi

I started off with a white A2 card base and randomly stamped the solid images in aqua, peach and light grey as well as the little branches in navy. On top I stamped the outline leaves image in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed them with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

Next, I diagonally stamped the word "Grateful" onto white cardstock with navy ink and VersaMark Ink before clear heat embossing it. I cut the panel apart and lastly adhered it with foam tape over my stamped design.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

-------------------------------------------------

Hello everyone! Vanessa here with a watercolor fall card using Elegant Leaves. The colors of fall are so beautiful, I love this season!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Elegant Leaves Thanksful Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I stamped the leaves onto watercolor paper and heat-embossed them with gold embossing powder. Then I colored the images with Peerless Watercolors and die-cut everything with the matching dies.

I trimmed a panel from rustic cream cardstock, stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder, added a strip of gold foiled cardstock to the top and adhered the panel to the Kraft card base. Finally, I adhered the leaves to the card, raising some with foam tape.

This stamp set is gorgeous, it is just perfect! And I am longing for a crisp fall day - we are experiencing one heat-wave after the other and I am sick of it. Have a cool day everybody, thanks for stopping by!

Plane Awesome Cards with Ana and Franci

Hi everyone! It’s Ana here today with three cards featuring Plane Awesome stamps and dies from the newest fall 2019 release! I was so excited when I saw this stamp set – our entire family loves airplanes so naturally I couldn’t stop myself at one card! 
To start, I stamped and colored images for my cards and cut them with coordinating dies.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Fluffy Clouds Border Dies Frilly Frames Dies Plane Themed Everyday Cards by Ana Anderson

For my first card I created the background blending Distress Inks in Mowed Lawn, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers and Salty Ocean, then die cut it with Frilly Frames Retro Petals die to create outline stitching.

To make the trees, I repeated the inking process and used Woodland Borders Die set to die cut the trees as well the hill on my background panel. I created stitched cloud border with new Fluffy Could Border dies. I white heat embossed the sentiments and added lightly inked clouds.

For the second card, I created 3 cloud stencils using Fluffy Cloud Border dies and inked two panels with Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans Distress Inks.

I used Fishtail Banner II dies for the front cloud panel and Frilly Frames Retro Petals die for the stitching on the back panel. After adhering the images, I added hearts and clouds die cuts from the Plane Awesome die set.

My third and final card was crated with Fluffy Clouds Border dies, stencils I made earlier with the dies and Distress Inks in Mustard Seed and Wild Honey.

I stamped the sentiments to both clouds, adhered them to the top and bottom of the background panel using foam tape then added little Plane Awesome critter flying around in the middle.

I really hope you liked the three cards I have shared today and love these adorable Plane Awesome cuties as much as I do!

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Happy Wednesday friends! Franci here with you today with a fun interactive card showcasing the Plane Awesome set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Plane Awesome Fluffy Clouds Border Dies Plane Themed Everyday Card by Franci Vignoli

I kept the front simple cause there's a surprise element on the inside so I just cut a panel of white cardstock, I colored it with some Distress ink, added some watercolors splatters and let it dry completely. I did the same with the inside of the card so they could match perfectly.

I stamped, colored and die cut all the images and I also die cut some stars using the little die that's free with every order at the Sunny Studio shop out of some sparkle gold cardstock. I glued all the images on to the panel and adhered it to the front of my card.

For the inside I die cut a cloudy border, using the Fluffy Cloud Border dies, out of a stripe of white cardstock, I folded it in half, then cut and score all the sides at an angle to create my interactive element.

I glued all the images to the cloud using little stripes of acetate and this really make them floating in the center of my card! I glued the cloud bottom flaps to the inside of my card and finally added some more stars.

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