Inside Greetings Seasons Card with Marine

Hi crafty friends, Marine here with this new holiday slimline card showcasing friends from the North Pole, being merry and happy on the ice floe. When the Roly Poly Penguins were released, I knew that I'd pair them with the Holiday Hugs bear at some point, so I'm happy to finally be sharing this lovely card with you.

I started off by creating an Arctic landscape on an 8,5 x 3,5 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel, dividing my panel in three sections. At the bottom, I created a cold sea using blueprint sketch and chipped sapphire oxide inks. In the middle, I did the ice floe using salvaged patina and peacock feathers oxide inks. And at the top, I did a purple sky using shaded lilac, wilted violet and villainous potion oxide inks.

While my panel was drying, I stamped my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Holiday Hugs - polar bear, large present, snowflakes • Scenic Route - strings of lights • Roly Poly Penguins - penguins, candy canes, small presents.

I attached all the images on my panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, white heat embossed my Inside Greetings Seasons on a Notebook Photo Corners black banner that I stuck below the polar bear, added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and finally added some white blizzard nuvo drops to the icebergs, pompoms, bow and lights for an extra sparkling touch. 

And that's it! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Toasty Hugs Card with Tina

Hello crafters, Tina here and today I made a fun Christmas card with lots of layers featuring the adorable cuties from the Toasty Hugs stamp and die set.

Opting for a vertical design this project starts with a white card base, next I cut a blue panel from a snowflake paper (Frilly Frames Stripes Die, Holiday Cheer papers). I added more subtle interest to this piece by running it through the machine with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die.

The following layer is made from white card stock using the Window Trio Square dies. I cut this window from a large piece of paper and used my trimmer to cut a small border around it so I could add thin foam strips to attach it to the blue panel.

I kept the square white pieces from the die cut and used them to create little snowbanks for my mini scenes and sentiment. The ‘Christmas’ word (Reindeer Games) was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink. After cutting the large Merry Word 3 times from a red paper in my stash I glued them all together giving the die cut stability and dimension. I used tiny slivers of foam tape to adhere the word to the windows shape.

For the mini scenes I used the two cuties from the Toasty Hugs stamp, strings of twinkly lights and packages (Holiday Express) and lastly the igloo from Winter Scenes. I selected pink, red and vibrant blue Copic markers for my coloring, adding snowflakes with a white gel pen.

After putting the little snowbanks in place, I added all the other elements for the scenes with foam tape. For extra interest I mounted even more snowflakes to the background by using one of my favorite dies (Snowflake Circle Frame). This die is a must have for all your winter and holiday cards, as it cuts a bunch of snowflakes in one pass. Love that! I then glued some Red Zircon Jewels to the centers of the snowflakes. 

I had a great time creating this adorable card and I hope you got inspired by the design! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Squirrel Friends Card with Amanda

Well hello there, friends! It's Amanda sharing a super sweet Autumn card I made with you today! I love being able to craft and share my creations with you! Keep scrolling to see how I created this card, featuring the Squirrel Friends Stamps, that I'm just NUTS about!

To create this card, I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 3.25" x 6.25". I ink blended Catherine Pooler Buttercream and Apricot inks on the lower portion of the panel. I stamped some little leaves from the Squirrel Friends Stamps along the top and middle portion of the panel using the same inks.  

Next, I stamped out my squirrels, nuts and leaves from the Squirrel Friends Stamps. I colored them with Copic markers and then die cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added little white gel pen dots on their eyes to make them look that much more adorable!

Then, I grabbed the Pumpkin Patch Dies. These dies are so versatile, I've used them SO many times!  For this card, I cut each piece of the pumpkins two times. This gives me 6 pumpkins total to play with! I used Copic markers to color each one, making them all unique! I glued each piece of the pumpkin together with liquid glue.  

For my sentiment, I grabbed the Autumn Garland Stamps. I stamped the "GREETINGS" directly onto my card panel in black ink. For the "Autumn" piece, I stamped it with embossing glue ink on black cardstock, applied white embossing powder, and then melted the powder with a heat tool. I die cut it out with the coordinating die and put 3D foam tape behind it.

The next step was to assemble the card! I adhered each component to the card front with either liquid glue (for the background pieces) or 3D foam squares for the foreground elements.

Hope you enjoyed this card and THANK YOU for coming to the Sunny Studio Blog today!

Merry Mocha Card by Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here to share more holiday card inspiration. This one features the adorable little mugs from the Merry Mocha stamp set. I've repeated the image three times sitting atop a fun peppermint stripe border. 

To recreate this card design you need the following Sunny Studio products:

• Merry Mocha stamp set and coordinating dies - for mug images
• Big Bunny stamp set and coordinating dies - for Season's Greetings 
• All is Bright paper pad - for peppermint stripe paper
• Snowflake Circle Frame die - for the die cut snowflakes

This card is A2 size. For the top three quarters of the background, I blended on some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide Ink and generously splattered with thinned white paint. I added a one inch wide strip of the peppermint stripe patterned paper to the bottom.

Copics used to color the mugs: pink - R00, R30, R22; red - R22, R24, R27; green - G00, G03, G05; shading on whipped cream - YR30, R00; brown - E25, E44

I added the mug images spaced evenly along the top edge of the stripe border. I then tied some white and silver baker's twine just below the mugs. 

To give the background some interest, I added the snowflakes. I die cut the snowflakes from white card stock and them lightly sprayed with some Barn Door Distress Spritz. This gives them a faint red tint and sparkle.

Snowmen in Sweaters Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Hanh here with you on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today to share a clean and simple holiday card featuring these adorable snowmen from the Snowmen in Sweaters Stamps set. I just adore all of the sweet faces on these snowmen.

I stamped the images from the Snowmen in Sweaters set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Snowmen in Sweaters Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Snowmen: B0000/000, Y38 YR04, RV00/02, E23
Pink: RV00/02/04/09
Green: YG01/03/25/17
Blue: B000/00/02
White: T1/3

For the layout, I diecut a piece of white cardstock using the larger die from the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies set. I adhered the entire panel onto the front of a top folding white card base (4.25" x 5.5"). 

Next, I got two pieces of white cardstock (4" x 5.25"). For the first panel, I used the third smallest die from the Stitched Circle Small Dies set to diecut 3 windows into the panel. I used this first panel as a guide to ink blend the second panel with Kitsch Flamingo, Shabby Shutters and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks. Once the ink was dried, I adhered the two panels to each other with foam tape before adhering them to the front of the cardbase. 

For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used one of the banner dies from the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies to diecut it out. I adhered the sentiment and the snowmen onto the panel with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card. Be sure to check out the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop for more info and ideas. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.
