Birthday Cat Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, it’s Tina and today’s project consists of three adorable mini cards featuring the sweet Birthday Cat stamp and die set. As usual, I browsed through my stash to create a mix and match design. It’s always fun to see how well old and new products can work together!

The cute birthday kitties take center stage in these cards. I love that you can stack them for a fun and whimsical look! I stamped all these images on Neenah Solar White paper, colored them with my Copic markers (trying to create a different fur pattern for each cat) and adding white details with a gel pen.

The card panels were made with a pink, yellow and teal pattern paper from the Dots & Stripes Pastel pad. I used the Mini Mat & Tag 1, Mini Mat & Tag 2 and Mini Mat and Tag 3 dies. Next, I cut three ovals from Neenah paper with the second smallest die from the Scalloped Oval Mat 1 set.

I didn’t want these ovals to be just stark white so I added ink splatters in matching Distress Oxide colors (Squeezed Lemonade for the yellow card, Peacock Feathers for the teal one and finally some pink Kitsch Flamingo). These Oxides were also used to stamp the ‘pun’ word in the sentiments from the Birthday Cat stamp set.

To assemble the cards, I first glued the pastel panels to mini white card bases. Next, I adhered the scalloped ovals directly to the bases. I send most of my cards through the mail, so I am trying to reduce bulk when stacking elements to my cards. But I did mount all the sweet cat images with thin foam tape so they would really stand out! Lastly, I added the sentiment strips at the bottom of the cupcakes.

I found the perfect matching embellishments in the Jewels Pastel Mix and Jewels Bright mix. These mixes contain so many gorgeous colors that I can use them on lots of my cards.

Since I often send birthday cards, I am super happy to have not one but three cute mini cards ready to go! Thank you for joining me and I hope you have fun creating cards with these adorable birthday cats! Happy crafting!

Perfect Gift Boxes Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here! I'm back with a super bright and shiny interactive card showcasing the Perfect Gift Boxes die set, as well as three cute kitties from Birthday Cat. Love those little guys so much, I can't wait to feature them on more cards!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Perfect Gift Boxes Dies Focused Birthday Card by Marine Simon (featuring Big Bold Greetings, Birthday Cat, Sliding Window Dies)

I started off by cutting a few panels: a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Rainbow Bright pattern paper, a slightly smaller gold glitter panel, and two even smaller Strathmore bristol smooth panels. I attached the gold glitter panel on the rainbow panel using double sided tape, and then worked on the two blank bristol panels. I colored them both using blue oxide inks: salty ocean + blueprint sketch + chipped sapphire, and added texture to both panels: chipped sapphire + water splatters, white ink + water splatters, and liquid stardust + water splatters. I set one aside and kept the other to create my interactive panel using the Sliding Window die set.

I white heat embossed my "It's your birthday" greeting from Party Pups on the interactive panel, added foam tape at the back all along the edges except for the top, and then attached it to the second blue panel using foam tape.

Next I cut seven Perfect Gift Boxes out of different colored cardstock, I cut the ribbons and bows out of gold glitter cardstock, assembled everything using liquid glue, and then attached the boxes on my interactive panel using 1mm foam squares. And I was going to stop there, but I felt that my card needed something else, so I stamped three kitties from Birthday Cat on white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, cut them using the coordinating dies, colored them using my Graph'It Brush markers, and then stuck them among the boxes using foam squares again.

I also wanted to add a second sentiment behind the interactive panel. I gold heat embossed a "Make a Wish" greeting from Big Bold Greetings on white cardstock, cut it using the coordinating die, and stuck it behind the panel using foam squares. And next I added a few extra details: I cut a gold glitter star using a die from Wrap Around Box that I glued at the top of the panel, and added a golden thread handle to be able to pull the panel.

And that's it! I hope you like this new super cute birthday card! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

A Cut Above Card with Catherine

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Catherine here! Today, I am sharing a cute scissors themed card created with A Cut Above Stamps. This set is super fun as it includes colored pencils, pushpins, notebook grids, and lines!

Sunny Studio Stamps: A Cut Above Card by Catherine Cohen (featuring Beach Buddies, Slimline Dies, Chloe Alphabet Dies)

To start, I die cut two pairs of scissors and four pushpins out of white cardstock. I put the negatives back into my Misti to use as a guide for stamping the layered stamps. I used the following inks:

Reds: Altenew Heart Beat, Ruby Red
Blues: Catherine Pooler Oh Boy, Something Borrowed
Greys: Pink Fresh Misty Coast, Tim Holtz Lost Shadow
Greens: Altenew Green Fields, Firefly
Yellows: Catherine Pooler Lemoncello, Catching Rays

I die cut the word “CUT” with Chloe Alphabet Dies three times out of white cardstock and ink blended one set of letters with Festive Berries, Spun Sugar, Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. I glued the other two sets together and then glued the colored set on top.

Next, I stamped the panda and bunny from Beach Buddies Stamps and die cut with the coordinating Beach Buddies Dies. I colored the Panda and Bunny with Copic Markers listed in my blog link below.

Sunny Studio Stamps: A Cut Above Card by Catherine Cohen (featuring Beach Buddies, Slimline Dies, Chloe Alphabet Dies)

For the background, I die cut a stitched border onto 4” x 5.25” white cardstock using a rectangle die from my stash. I wanted to do something fun with the background so I stamped dotted lines using the same inks with a road stamp from Spring Scenes Stamps. I added grey dashes with a Grey Multi-liner. I cut the openings from the sides with a craft cutter and ruler and then I partially die cut the top of the openings with a stitched border die from Slimline Basic Border Dies. I adhered the white background onto paper from Rainbow Bright 6x6 Paper.

I adhered all the images onto the front panel. I added White Heat Embossed sentiments from the same set. I finished off the card by adhering it onto A2 Vellum.

Thank you so much for joining me today! Please feel free to visit me at Crafti-Cat for a list of markers used. Have a wonderful week!

Scrumptious Cupcakes Card with Isha

Hello everyone! Isha here with a CAS card featuring the Scrumptious Cupcake stamps and dies. This stamp set has a mix of lovely layering stamps to achieve beautiful results without much effort. Layering these stamps is very easy, you can check out the guide HERE.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Scrumptious Cupcakes Birthday Card by Isha Gupta (featuring Crepe Paper Streamers)

I started by sponging tumbled glass distress ink to the top and bottom edge of a white panel. Flick some ink and white paint for a subtle texture. Stamp the sentiment from the Scrumptious Cupcake stamp onto this panel. Stamp the cupcake and the frosting using various layers as per the guide. I added some details with pencil color and white gel pen. Add nuvo crystal glaze to parts of the frosting and sprinkle chunky glitter. This looks very pretty in reality.

Die-cut the paper streamers using the Crepe Paper Streamers Dies. Color using copic markers. Adhere to the card and add nuvo crystal glaze. Adhere the panel to a white card base. 

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Notebook Die Focused Card with Bobbi

Hello Sunny friends! It’s Bobbi here with a file folder filled with get well wishes! I’m using the new Notebook Tabs dies, to make the manila folder with some well wishes inside. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Notebook Die Focused Birthday Card by Bobbi Lemanski (featuring Puppy Love, Bright Balloons, Heartfelt Wishes, A Cut Above)

I’m also using the following products:

Notebook Photo Corners dies

Puppy Love stamps and dies

Heartfelt Wishes stamps

A Cut Above stamps

Bright Balloon dies 

Sending Sunshine stamps 


Sunny Studio Stamps: Notebook Die Focused Birthday Card by Bobbi Lemanski (featuring Puppy Love, Bright Balloons, Heartfelt Wishes, A Cut Above)

To make this 5″ X 7″ card, I started with a light yellow cardstock that looks similar to the color of a manila folder. I cut the piece to  9 -1/4″ wide X 7″ long and scored at 5″  to make the front panel shorter than the back panel. I used a corner rounder (1/4″) to round the edges. I added a tab to the top of the front panel in a light blue with a white center. This card could be personalized with the name of the recipient on the tab.

I decorated the front of the file folder with the cute 
puppy holding the heart, the balloons and the sentiment strips from Sending Sunshine stamps. I added some confetti in bold cardstock colors. I also used the die cut scrap border from one of the notebook pages (located inside the folder) to the front for a background for the balloons and pup.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Notebook Die Focused Birthday Card by Bobbi Lemanski (featuring Puppy Love, Bright Balloons, Heartfelt Wishes, A Cut Above)

Inside, I added two pieces of  “notebook” paper, a red and white striped paper clip and a puppy at the bottom. I stamped the sentiment, “get well wishes” on the inside. I used a stamp from the A Cut Above stamp set to make the lines on the notebook paper. A little personalized note could be written on the lines!
