Hello Crafty
Friends! This is Hanh.
I am so excited to be back to Guest Design for Sunny Studio Stamps and to
showcase products from the Summer Release. I am loving all of the fresh
fruits that are available for the summer and at Sunny Studio Stamps. I
have a trifold and a couple of punny fruit-themed Thank You cards to share with
you today. So let's get started.
When Life Gives
You Lemons ... Make Lemonade! My first card is a fun trifold card featuring the
new Fresh
Lemon Dies, Summer
Jar Mug Dies, Big
Panda Stamps, Big
Panda Dies and Punny
Fruit Greetings Stamps. I love all of the amazing embossed details
on these dies!
I die cut the
lemons, leaves and some flowers from the Fresh Lemon Dies and Strawberry
Patch Dies out of Bristol Smooth and some colored cardstock. I
ink blended the lemons with Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide
inks.
I stamped the
panda from the Big Panda Stamps onto some Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock
and used the coordinating coordinating dies to cut it out. I diecut the elements
from Summer Jar Mug Dies out of the same white cardstock, some colored
cardstock and a piece of patterned paper from the Polka-Dot
Parade Paper. I colored them with Copic markers and accented with a
white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Panda:
C00/0/1/3/5/7, R000/20
Mug: B0000/000
Lemonade:
Y0000/000/11/13
Lemon Slices:
Y11/13/08
Straw: B00/02
For the trifold
card base, I took a piece of white cardstock (5.5" x 11"). I trimmed
3/8" (0.325") off of the long end and scored it at the 2.25" and
6.5" mark. I lightly ink blended a little Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide to
the top edge of the two side segments for the sky. I folded at the score lines
to create a card with two flaps. I trimmed and adhered a piece of patterned
paper from Gingham
Pastel Paper for my tablecloth to the bottom of the two flaps.
I stamped the sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps onto the
cardbase before adhering all of the colored and inked elements and clear
sequins.
Thanks a Melon!
For my second card, I have a sweet Thank You card featuring the new Juicy
Watermelon Dies, Stitched
Square Dies and the Scalloped
Squares 1 Large Dies. I love this adorable die set! It comes with
two different variations for the seeds. I chose my favorite, the heart-shaped
seeds! I paired the watermelon slice with one of the super cute pandas from the Panda Party Stamps and a sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps.
I diecut the Juicy Watermelon Dies and the letters for MELON from the Chloe
Alphabet Dies out of Bristol Smooth cardstock as some
colored cardstock. I diecut two sets of the letters, layered and adhered
them together for a bit of dimension and interest. I ink blended the edges with
a bit of Candied Apple and Mowed Lawn Distress inks for some
dimensions.
I stamped the
panda from the Panda
Party Stamps onto some Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock and
used the coordinating Panda
Party Dies to cut it out. I colored it with Copic markers and
accented with a white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Panda:
C00/0/1/3/5/7, R000/20
I used the Stitched Square Dies, Scalloped Squares 1 Large Dies and the Stitched
Rectangle Dies to die cut the white and red squares
and front panel. I stamped a sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps onto the
front panel. I adhered the panda, watermelon and all of the letters onto the
panel. The panel was adhered onto a piece of patterned paper from the Classic
Gingham Paper before being adhered to a white A2 cardbase
(4.25" x 5.5").
Thank You Cherry
Much! For my third card, I created another Thank You card this time featuring
the new Wild
Cherry Dies. I really love all of the details on these fruit dies.
There are embossed veins on the leaves and stipples on the lemons. And in this Wild Cherry Dies set, there is an awesome little diecut to add a fleck of light
or shine onto the cherries. I love it! So much more prominent than my white gel
pen.
I diecut the Wild Cherry Dies out of colored cardstock. I ink blended the edges with a
bit of Candied Apple and Mowed Lawn Distress inks for some
dimensions. I die cut the CHERRY from the Chloe Alphabet Dies out of black
cardstock. Once again I diecut two sets of letters and adhered them to
each other. I stamped and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps onto black cardstock.
The cherries and
letters were adhered to a white panel diecut with the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I added a piece of black cardstock behind the panel, then some craft foam
before adhering the panel to a piece of patterned paper from Polka-Dot Parade Paper.
The panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").
