Joyful Holiday Paper Focused Cards with Kavya and Isha

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with another fun project. I love using the pattern paper from Sunny Studio Stamps whenever I want to add some more color to my cards. They are also perfect for matting! Lately, I have been using them as bases for my 3D cards. Today, I have another fun Christmas themed 3D card that I made using Lawn Fawn’s platform die.

I first started off by creating my base using Joyful Holiday Paper and some cardstock for the back. Ink blended the edges to make them more 3D. 

Then, I stamped and colored a bunch of images from Cozy Christmas. Adhered the images to the base and added a heat embossed sentiment to finish off the card!

Wasn’t that simple? I hope you liked this fun and easy project :) Happy Crafting.

Hello everyone! Isha here with a card using various patterns from the Joyful Holiday Paper pack. I love creating layers using patterns and this set has a GORGEOUS collection of patterns, which compliment each other so well.

I started by cutting some of the papers to create the background. Next I die-cut the grey snowflake paper using the Mini Mat and Tag 4 dies. Adhere to the card and flick white paint for a snow feel. Stamp the wreath from the Winter Wreath stamp and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Die-cut the Holly leaves and berries using the Winter Greenery dies, add colour using copic markers. Die-cut some snowflakes using the Lacy Snowflakes dies from silver shimmer paper. 

Stamp the sentiment from the Holiday Greetings stamp and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Assemble everything as per the card.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Snowman Kisses Cards with Cathy and Bobbi

Hey friends! Cathy here today sharing a card today with my favorite non-traditional Holiday season colors. I love how well they worked with the Snowman Kisses Stamps giving it a playful, dreamy feel!

I began inking the sky on a 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” piece of Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock using Saltwater Taffy, Speckled Egg and Evergreen Bough Distress inks. I splattered a little watered down white acrylic paint with a paintbrush and adhered this panel to an A2 card base. For the snow drifts, I cut 2 pieces of white cardstock (2” x 5 1/2" and 1 1/4" x 5 1/2") and die-cut the top edge of both pieces using a Slimline Nature Borders Die. I adhered these to the bottom of the card front.

Next, I heat embossed the Happy Holidays sentiment from the Holiday Greetings Stamps on white cardstock using Ranger Aqua Tinsel embossing powder and die-cut it using the coordinating dies. I also heat embossed snowflakes from the Snowman Kisses Stamps on Evergreen Bough inked cardstock, die-cut them with the coordinating dies and adhered them around the sky.

I stamped all of the images on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock and colored them with Copics. I used 2 trees from the Seasonal Trees Stamps and their coordinating dies in my scene and added ornaments to one tree from the Cozy Christmas Stamps and coordinating dies. After adding the happy adorable snowmen from the Snowman Kisses Stamps, I decided to include a few little birdie friends from the Seasonal Trees Stamps. They all look so full of joy!

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by today! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.

Hi crafty friends! It’s Bobbi sharing a holiday card featuring the Snowman Kisses stamp set and coordinating dies. This stamp set just makes me happy. How cute are these snowmen?! I paired this set with the Scenic Route Stamps and coordinating dies and the Forest Trees Stencil set.

For this 5″ X 7″ card, I used a combination of pinks, lavenders and blue violets for this color story. I started with a card front panel and card base made from 80lb Neenah Solar White cardstock. I used the Forest Trees Stencil set to add trees to the background. Using a blending brush, I stenciled two layers of trees in Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink in the far background and Kitch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink in the forest foreground. I ink blended Shaded Lilac and Broken China (very light touch) on the top of the front for the sky. I used my Gelly Roll white pen and my Copics to add white and blue-violet dots in the sky to make it look like snow is falling.

Next, I stamped the snowmen and the Scenic Route scene, including the string of lights on separate cardstock and die cut them using their coordinating dies. I colored them using pinks, lavenders, purples and blue violets using Copic Markers:

Red-Violets: RV09, RV55, RV02, RV0
Violets: V09, V04, V12
Blue-Violet: BV000,
Yellow-Green: YG67, YG03
Cool Grays: C3, C1, and Black 100

In keeping with the color combination, I used blue-violet markers for all the shading around the snowmen and trees and for the falling snowflakes. The only exception to the colors listed above is the string of lights. I used bright and festive colors to color in the tiny light bulbs including yellow, orange, teal, etc.

I attached the snowy hill image in the foreground and added the snowmen. Because my card is an A7 size versus A2, the string of lights do not reach from side to side on my card front.  To make them work, I hand drew some wood posts to attach the string lights to at the top to make it fit my wider card.  I placed the posts and lights in the scene and glued everything in place. I added white accents to the trees and more falling snow right on the snowmen and scene. Finally, I stamped the sentiment at the bottom to finish this holiday card.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cozy Christmas Cards with Anja Bytyqi

Hi everyone, Anja here with you today. I'm so happy to be back again as a guest on the Sunny Studio Blog. Today I'm showcasing the wonderful Cozy Christmas Stamps from the latest Holiday Release.

On my first sample, I used the stamps for a non-holiday card and created a sweet little living room scene.

First, I started off with a white A2 card base and die cut the largest of the Stitched Rectangle Dies from light blue cardstock. In the next step, I die cut the stitched scalloped mat from the Mini Mat & Tag 3 Dies set out of white cardstock. I masked off the scallop border as well as the stitching and did some ink blending with Distress Oxide Inks. For the wall background, I blended on Tattered Rose and a little bit of Saltwater Taffy. The floor was done in Pumice Stone. I let it dry completely and stamped one of the Penguin Party sentiments in VersaMark Ink. I heat embossed it with Ranger Platinum Embossing Powder. For a bit of dimension, I popped up the scalloped mat with foam tape.

Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. On the armchair, I did some Paper Piecing with blue gingham paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper Pack. I also created a little rug from a piece of Flirty Flowers patterned paper. Finally, I assembled the scene by adhering the images and floral rug with liquid glue and adding a red enamel heart next to the heat embossed sentiment.

The second sample just had to be a holiday card and I really wanted to use the comfy sofa.

I created a landscape A2 card base from white cardstock and covered the front with a striped Joyful Holiday paper. I cut the largest of the Stitched Oval 2 Dies from white cardstock. I also used it on a piece of woodgrain patterned paper (Subtle Grey Tones Paper Pack) and a thin white cardstock strip. In the background, I did some faded ink blending with Tumbled Glass and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink. Then, I adhered the woodgrain floor and white strip to the bottom half of the oval. I stamped the sentiment on top using aqua blue pigment ink.

The images were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic markers. I paper pieced the pillows and cut everything out with the coordinating dies. I adhered the images to finish off the scene and applied some Crystal Stickles to the white parts of the christmas tree decor.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a cozy weekend!

Holiday Greetings Cards with Vanessa and Tina

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a pink holiday card using the Holiday Greetings set.

I started with a panel of white cardstock and masked off a hill on the bottom of the panel. Now I applied Kitsch Flamingo, Festive Berries and Picked Raspberries Distress Oxide Inks using the Forest Trees Stencils. After I had removed the mask, I adhered the panel to my card base. 

Then I stamped the snowmen from Snowman Kisses, colored the images with Copics, die-cut the pieces with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the card with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment, inking the stamp with red and pink inks, die-cut it and adhered it to the front. Finally, I added snow with a white gel pen.

Do you like pinks for holiday cards? Have a lovely weekend :)

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a sweet mini slimline Christmas card featuring the new Holiday Greetings stamp and die set! I love the size and the beautiful font of these sentiments!

Today we are creating an arctic scene for the cute penguins from the Penguin Pals set. First, I die cut two mini slimline rectangles out of Neenah Solar White cardstock. One of these was used to create two snowy hills for my front panel.

On the second rectangle I stamped a mountain range from Country Scenes. However, the mountains come with a pine border that I masked off since we are going for a South Pole look. To complete the scene I also stamped and die cut the igloo from Winter Scenes and three adorable penguins from the Penguin Pals set. All the images were colored with Copic markers, and I added tons of snowflakes with a white gel pen.

The sky of the card panel and the two snowy hills were inked with Distress Oxides, and covered with white snowflakes. To get a ‘frosty’ look, I added some white glitter and mica flakes to the mountain tops, igloo, snow banks and icy block.

I stamped one of the sentiments from the Holiday Greetings stamp in pink and used the die set to cut it out. To create dimension, I cut two extra sentiment layers from with card stock and stacked them all together with liquid glue.

To assemble the card, I added the two snowy hills to the panel and adhered my images and sentiment. I glued my card panel to a white lacy rectangle and mounted it to a card base. As embellishment I added a few of the Pure White Jewels scattered around the sentiment.

And that finishes my artic scene card! Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and happy crafting!
