Fresh Lemon Card with Tina

Hello crafters, Tina here with a summer card combining the fun Fresh Lemon Dies with the yummy Perfect Popsicles.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Fresh Lemon Fruit Themed Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Perfect Popsicles, Frilly Frame Dies, Limitless Labels Dies)

After creating a white card base, I die cut a panel with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes Die and a green sheet from Flirty FlowersFor my next layer, I dry embossed a piece of white card stock with the Lots Of Dots embossing folder and used one of the Limitless labels. Next, I just adhered these layers together with liquid glue.

This summer card needed lots of vibrant colors, so I used bright pink, yellow and green inks from my stash for the popsicles and lemons. As always with layering stamps, I used the plastic sheet with the images printed on to help me position all the stamps. I added some white highlights with a gel pen. I used the same pink ink for the sentiment from Perfect Popsicles.

Then I played around with the layout of the popsicles and lemons and assembled the card with liquid glue and foam tape where needed. A few Iridescent Clear Jewels were the perfect sparkle to finish this project.

I really love how well these sets work together and I hope you got inspired to create some fun summer cards too! Thank you for spending time with me and happy crafting!

Beach Bus Card with Isha

Hello everyone, Isha here! So excited to be back again on the blog with a fun summer theme project featuring the new Beach Bus stamp and dies. I combined it with some of the previously released products and I have to say that they blend so well.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Beach Bus Summer Themed card by Isha Gupta (featuring Scenic Route, Stitched Rectangle Dies, Garden Critters)

I started by creating a background. I sponged the clouds using salty ocean and wilted violet oxide ink. I masked and sponged antique linen distress ink for the ground. Die-cut this panel using the Stitched Rectangle die

Next, time to stamp the images, color using copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies:

Bus,Surf-board, Sentiment -  Beach Bus stamp and dies
Bees, Snail - Garden Critters stamp and dies
Lights - Scenic Route stamp and dies

Assemble the images using 3d foam to create the scene. Apply nuvo crystal glitter to the lights and the window glass. To finish, I added some glitter to the bee's wings.

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Juicy Watermelon Card with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here and today I'm sharing a fun card that would be perfect for anyone with a summer birthday. I've always felt that watermelons are one of the most iconic fruits of the summer.   

Sunny Studio Stamps: Juicy Watermelon Birthday Card by Leanne West (featuring Punny Fruit Greetings, Chloe Alphabet Dies)

I used the Juicy Watermelon die set to create a border of slices all the around the edges of my mini slimline card. My card base measures 6.25 inches long by 3.25 inches wide.  This size was perfect to allow for three slices along the top and bottom edges and one slice on the ends while leaving space for the greeting in the center.

All the pieces for the watermelon slices where die cut from white card stock and then I used the following Catherine Pooler inks to color: Party Dress, Cranberry Fizz, Garden Party, Grass Skirt. I used a black Copic marker to color the area behind the little seed cut outs. 

I splattered the card base with a little bit of red ink before I adhered the slices. I then used stamps from Punny Fruit Greetings and the Chloe Alphabet dies to create the birthday sentiment. Lastly, I added three tiny clay hearts.

Build-A-Bowl Die Focused Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today sharing a zesty appreciation card with a fresh summer color scheme featuring the Build-A-Bowl Dies!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Build-A-Bowl Die Focused Card by Cathy Chapdelaine (featuring Stitched Square Dies, Ribbon & Lace Border Dies, Frilly Frame Dies, Strawberry Patch Dies, Fresh Lemon Dies, Punny Fruit Greetings)

This is a 4 3/4" square card and I started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock using the largest Stitched Square Dies. I inked the outside edges with Mermaid Lagoon Distress ink and adhered it to the center of a white card front.

Next, I die-cut a green paper from the Gingham Pastels Paper 4 times using the ribbon die from the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies. I cut each piece to 4 1/4" long and adhered them along the stitched edges of the stitched square overlapping them at the corners. For the quatrefoil background, I cut a piece of white cardstock 5” x 5” and die-cut it using the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil Die (I die-cut it once on one side of the cardstock and then lined up the die with the end of the cut pattern and die-cut again to achieve a larger continuous pattern). I then cut a second piece of white cardstock 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" and inked it with Squeezed Lemonade Distress ink. I didn’t blend the ink smoothly since I wanted a slightly mottled look. I adhered the white quatrefoil die-cut piece to the inked cardstock and then die-cut the combined piece using the second largest Stitched Square Dies. I adhered this piece centered on the green strips.

To finish, I die-cut the bowl using the Build-A-Bowl Dies from white cardstock and inked it with Tumbled Glass Distress ink. I added a floral pattern by die-cutting a piece of vellum using a flower from the Strawberry Patch Dies and then using it as a stencil with Mermaid Lagoon Distress ink. I then die-cut and inked the lemons, flowers and a branch using the following dies:

Fresh Lemon Dies
Strawberry Patch Dies
Tree Branch Die

I heat embossed the sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps with white embossing powder on white cardstock, inked over the sentiments and fussy cut them out.

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.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Tropical Birds Cards with Ashlee Bellinger

Hey Sunny Studio friends. It’s Ashlee here with a new guest post using products from the latest Sunny Studio release. I was so excited to play with some of the gorgeous new goodies!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Tropical Bird Summer Themed Card by Ashlee Bellinger (featuring Juicy Watermelon Dies, Dotted Diamond Dies, Summer Jar Mug Dies)

For this first card I used these products :
- Tropical Birds stamps / coordinating dies
- Summer Jar Mug dies
Juicy Watermelon die
- Dotted Diamond Portrait die

To create this card I started by die cutting the card base from yellow card stock using the dotted diamond portrait die. I then die cut a whole bunch of pieces using all different colours of card stock to create two of the summer jars. These were adhered together and placed on the card base using varying levels of foam tape. To add a fruity touch I die cut a super cute juicy watermelon.

Using the toucan stamp from the Tropical birds stamp set I stamped, coloured and die cut the image and popped him onto the top of the summer jar! How cute is he sitting up there amongst all the bright colours and summer drinks! 

Next it was time to add a sentiment so I stamped the “a little toucan of my appreciation” on two white strips then adhered those in place. To complete the card a touch of pretty sequins!!

I also have another card to share today and this one uses these products :
- Dotted Diamond Portrait die
Tropical Birds stamps / coordinating dies
- Juicy Watermelon die
Mini Mat & Tag 2 dies

To create this card I started by die cutting the card base using the dotted diamond die. I then die cut a frame using white card stock and the mini mat die to have a focal piece for my images and sentiments to go. I stamped the “a-pparotly it’s your birthday” directly onto the white frame before adhering the frame to the card base with foam tape to start adding dimension.

Once the frame piece was adhered I went on to die cut a bunch of super cute juicy watermelons. These were also adhered with foam tape of varying levels.

Using the cute birdie from the tropical birds set I stamped, coloured and die cut it before placing him onto one of the watermelons. To complete the card I added my usual finishing touch of sequins. 

What do you think of these two summery colourful cards?! I hope you love them, I sure had fun creating them.

Thanks for stopping by the Sunny Studios blog today and happy crafting!
