Guest Designer Spotlight: Winter Themed Cards with Mona Toth

Hi crafty friends! It's Mona Toth here and I am super excited for be a guest on the Sunny Studio Blog! I have two cards for today what I made with the Merry Mice, Scenic Route and Cruising Critters stamp sets.

For my first card I started the cardmaking with stamping and coloring. I stamped the images from the Merry Mice and the Scenic Route stamp sets then I colored them with Copic Markers. After the coloring I die-cut the images with coordinating dies and added highlights with Signo Uniball white pen.

For the background added Frilly Frames Chevron Dies with Neenah Solar White cardstock then I cut a little smaller cardstock made ink blending on it with Spun Sugar and Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink. After the ink blending I stamped the "Merry Christmouse" sentiments with clear watermark ink and made a quick heat embossing on it.

To the background I added a beautiful red cardstock from Striped Silly 6x6 Paper Pad behind the background die-cut. In the end I styled my card and adhered everything together.

For my second card I made almost the same process, but this time I have used the Cruising Critters stamp set together with the Scenic Route set. I colored them with Copic markers as well.

For the background I die-cut the Layered Snowflake Frame Die from a cream cardstock and created with it this sweet but festive scene.

In the end I run the "Winter Wishes" sentiment through my die-cut machine with red cardstock, adhered to my card and it was ready. 

Thank you very much for reading through my post, I hope that you have enjoyed it, feel free to comment which one you like more. Feel free to check my Instagram for more inspiration. :)

Have an amazing day, big hugs, Mona!

Merry Mice Cards with Rachel and Candice

Hello everyone! It's Rachel here and I have a winter slimline card to share with you today that focuses on the Merry Mice Stamp Set. To start my card, I first stamped all of my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock with some Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then used Copic Markers to color everything and the coordinating dies to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:

• Light Teal: BG10, BG15
• Dark Teal: BG11, BG13, BG49
• Light Ears: RV0000, RV11
• Dark Pink Ears: RV0000, R81, R85
• Grays: W0, W2, W4, W5
• Whites: 0, C00, C2, C4
• Reds: R35, R37, R59
• Browns: E40, E41, E42, E44

For my background, I trimmed a piece of smooth white card stock to 8.5" x 3.5" and then blended it with some Peacock Feathers. Evergreen Bough, and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks. I splattered this piece with some water and then lightly blotted it dry with a paper towel. I then splattered it with both diluted white and green paints. 

For some added interest, I stamped some trees from the Santa Claus Lane Set with Galactic Stream, Teal Cave, and Aqualicious Inks from Altenew. I used the Woodland Borders Die Set to add a stitched snow drift. Lastly, I adhered all of my images with some 3D Foam Adhesive Squares for added dimension.

I hope you enjoyed my card today! Wishing you all a safe and wonderful weekend!

Welcome back this fantastic Friday! Candice with you today sharing a sweet Christmouse scene with you today using the adorable Merry Mice stamp set!

I began my card by creating an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base that fits perfectly into a standard or size 9A envelope. For the background, I first heat embossed the snow in white using the Frosty Flurries stamp set and lightly inked with squeezed lemonade and twisted citron.

I then die cut three snowhills from the Woodland Borders dies, two of them at an angle to get the dip in the center of my card. Next, I stamped all the adorable mice, trees, presents, and accessories from the Merry Mice stamp set, colored with Copic markers, and die cut out using the Merry Mice coordinating dies.

To finish the card, I heat embossed the sentiment in white and inked over with milled lavender and trimmed into a long banner. Thank you for visiting today!

Hogs & Kisses Cards with Anja and Vanessa

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I'm back again with another Christmas card featuring the Hogs & Kisses set. I combined the cute piggy with the house border stamp from the Scenic Route set.

For my background, I blended together some blue Distress Oxide Inks (Stormy Sky, Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire) onto a piece of Bristol paper and added white paint splatters with a brush. I stamped the row of houses and the pig in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and did some coloring with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images.

The pun sentiment is a combination of the gold heat embossed word 'Hoggy' and the scripty 'Christmas' die which is included in the Christmas Garland Frame set and stretches across the whole width of my card. I die cut it from red glitter cardstock. Finally, I adhered the house border panel and pig with foam tape for a little bit of dimension.

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

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a card using the cute Hogs & Kisses set. I created a little scene and loved digging through my beloved Sunny Studio stash to find elements to add to this.

I first covered the front of my card with patterned paper from the Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper pad to create the background of my scenery. Then I stamped all the images onto white cardstock, colored the elements with Copics, die-cut everything with the matching dies and adhered the images to the card. 

Finally, I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of red cardstock, heat-embossed it with white embossing powder, trimmed the strip and adhered it to the card.

I used so many different sets, I decided to give you a list of them:

Hogs & Kisses stamps + dies

Scenic Route stamps + dies

Santa Claus Lane stamps + dies

Blissful Baking stamps + dies

Happy Owlidays stamps + dies

Sweet Treat Projects with Ana and Franci

Hello crafty friends! It Ana here today with a Christmas Sweet Treat Bag and Sweet Treat House Add-On! 

To create this bag, I used several patterned papers that matched my winter theme. Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper for the bag base. Very Merry 6x6 paper for the roof, door, bows, ornaments and tag topper. Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper for the trees and hedges. White 110lb cardstock for tag base, window and door frame. I started with die cutting the bag base from 2 pieces of grey paper and adhering them together.

Out of red paper, I die cut the roof base and 6 pieces of shingles layering them together with glue tape then adding them to the top of the bag. I cut the door, bows ornaments and a star out of the same red paper.

I used Woodland Borders dies to die cut the trees, wreath and hedges (which are mini tag toppers turned upside down). Using the same die set (Woodland Borders) I die cut the snow out of glitter paper.

I adhered all the elements to the bag and added Glossy accents to the wreath bow and ornaments and Wink of Stella to the other two bows. Finally, I stamped the To/From to the tag and tied it to the handle with twine.

This adorable treat bag was so much fun to make and I love the way it turned out! I really hope you enjoyed today’s post and got inspired. Thank you so much for stopping by today and until next week I wish you happy crafting!

Hello there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with you today showcasing the Sweet Treat Bag die set.

Aww look at this cute festive treat bag!! First of all I created my bag by die-cutting the main piece out of white cardstock.  Then I trimmed to size this red patterned paper panel (using a design from the Very Merry Paper pad) and I glued it on the front.

I cut out another piece of patterned paper from the same pad (I love this snowy design!) and glued it down too. I left this a little bit taller than my goodie bag so I could fold it over and secure my treat box closed.

Then I stamped colored and die cut some cute images from the Merry Mice set, colored them with Copics and cut them out with their coordinated dies. I stuck them in this fun design and secured them to my goodie bag with some foam adhesive.

Finally I die cut the little tag and the snowflake (using the Snowflake Circle Frame die set) out of white cardstock and I stamped my "to: & from:" using some little stamps included in the Season's Greetings Stamps.

Finally I added some details with a white gel pen and close my little Christmas treat bag at the top with a small wooden clip. Thanks a lot for stopping by!
