Fresh Lemon Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hello crafty friends! It's Leanne here and I have a zesty card to share that showcases how I've used the Fresh Lemon dies. 

I started this design by covering an A2-size card base with a panel of patterned paper from the Gingham Pastels paper pad. Next, I added a decorative white mat I die cut with the Frilly Frames Lattice die. Then I layered on an inked and splattered panel trimmed down to 3.25 x 4.5 inches.

For the main focal point of this card design, I created a little gathering of some whole lemons and slices. I used dies from Fresh Lemons to cut out all the pieces from white card stock. I used blending brushes and a few different Catherine Pooler inks to color: Sage, Matcha, Lemongrass, and Catching Rays for the lemons and foliage. For the little blossoms, I used Sparkling Berry to add just a touch of pink to the petal edges. 

To complete this design, I added a custom greeting that is part stamped and part die cut. For the stamped part, I used words from Punny Fruit Greetings. For the letters that spell the word "zest", I used dies from the Chloe Alphabet set. I inked up the letters with the color Catching Rays, applying darker at the bottom and lighter towards the top for an ombre effect.

Beach Bus Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today with a clean and simple beach themed card featuring the fun Beach Bus Stamps!

This is an A2 card and I started by cutting a piece of Summer Splash Paper 4” x 5 1/4" and adhering it to a white card front. I die-cut the second largest Stitched Semi-Circle Die from white cardstock and inked the background using Peacock Feathers/Salvaged Patina Distress inks for the ocean, Antique Linen for a small island and Dried Marigold/Spun Sugar/Tumbled Glass for the sky. I stamped the sentiment in black and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I then adhered the semi-circle 1/2" from the top of the card front.

Next, I stamped the palm trees in 2 different green inks and colored the trunks brown after stamping. I die-cut them using the coordinating dies.

To finish, I stamped the images from the Beach Bus Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I also stamped a few hibiscus flowers from the Tropical Birds Stamps on the bus for an extra tropical feel.

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.

Juicy Watermelon Card with Nicky

Hello friends, this is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog and I have a new Juicy Watermelon card to share with you featuring products from the Summer release. Please read on for all the details.

I started by die cutting white cardstock using the Scalloped Square 2 Large Dies. I masked just inside the faux stitched line and ink blended using The Stamp Market's 'Fresh Pink' ink.  I splashed on some water and blotted it up and dotted in other interest with a pen then carefully removed the mask, backed the panel with white craft foam and applied it to a patterned panel from the Spring Sunburst 6 x 6 Cardstock. This was glued to a larger white panel then to my card base.

I stamped and coloured the adorable panda from the Big Panda stamp set and coloured using the following Copic colours - T6, T5, T4, T3, C3, C1, C0, C00, R22, R21, R20, R00, R000. I die cut using the coordinating Big Panda Dies and gave her a drink to hold .... pretty sure it is some kind of watermelon concoction!!!  To colour the cocktail I used - RV04, R22, R21, R20, R00 and B0000 for the actual glass. I adhered the drink within the panda's arms using foam tape and highlighted the images with a white gel pen.

I die cut the slice of watermelon using the Juicy Watermelon Dies and ink blended using Gumdrop by The Stamp Market and Distress Oxide Ink in Festive Berries. I backed the slice with a dark grey cardstock so that the seeds showed through and glued. I then glued the watermelon slices and the panda to the card background and finished with the Hello Cutie sentiments and a few sparkling clear sequins for accents.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend with time to craft, I'll be back next Friday with something new to share.

Build-a-Bowl Die Focused Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm thrilled to be back on the blog with this lovely card featuring Build A Bowl. As very often I mixed and matched items from different sets, and instead of using the bowl with fruits (which I'll certainly do in the coming weeks), I turned it into a planter to create a sweet garden scene.

The first thing I did was create a stenciled background that would match my garden theme nicely. I cut a kraft panel using the largest Stitched Square die, and used a stencil from my stash along with white pigment ink, and shabby shutters, mowed lawn, spun sugar and worn lipstick oxide inks to make a pretty lattice. I mixed some vintage photo oxide ink with water and used a small brush to add splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink.

Next I cut a scalloped square out of light brown woodgrain cardstock using the second largest Scalloped Square 1 Large die, and turned it into a frame by cutting an opening out of it using the third largest Stitched Square die. I applied a little bit of vintage photo oxide inks on the edges, and attached my scalloped frame on the stenciled panel using 1mm foam squares.

I picked all the bits and pieces from different die sets, cut them out of colored cardstock, and used oxide inks to add shadows and more interest to each element. Here is a detailed list of the products I used: • Build A Bowl for the planter • Mini Grass Border for the grass • Build A Birdhouse for the birdhouse, birds, pole • Spring Garden for the tulips • Winter Greenery for the tall leaves. I attached everything on my panel, starting with the bowl and grass, and then added all the remaining pieces using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, as well as liquid glue.

For my greeting, I started off by cutting the different Brilliant Banner 1 components out of dark gray cardstock and black cardstock. I white embossed "For my tweet friend" from Little Birdie on the front piece, assembled the whole banner using 1mm foam squares and liquid glue, and attached it below the planter using 1mm foam squares again.

Finally I added a black dot to each bird's eye, and highlights and details to most of the elements using a white gel pen. And that's it! 

It took me quite a few brainstorming sessions to figure out what I wanted to do with the Build A Bowl dies, my mojo had left me on this one, but I'm so happy of how it turned out, it's such a darling little scene, and I hope you like it. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week!
