Brilliant Banner 3 Die Focused Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm back with this cute holiday card featuring Santa, Rudolph and his reindeer friends. They're busy delivering presents to everyone who's been nice this year, and for the first time, Santa's sleigh stays in the garage, and the little gang is travelling the world in a Christmas van. How fun!

I started off by stamping all the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers in my favorite holiday color palette, which is red, pink, aqua and green.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Beach Bus - van • Lazy Christmas - presents • Snowmen In Sweaters - trees, snowflakes • Holiday Express - Rudolph • Fall Friends - reindeers • North Pole - Santa, nice list • Panda Party - banner • Scenic Route - houses • Winter Scenes - trees.

I set my images aside, and cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I divided in two sections using washi tape: the sky at the top, and snow at the bottom. I colored the sky using kitsch flamingo and picked raspberry oxide inks, and the snow using salvaged patina and peacock feathers oxide inks. As always I added lots of textures to my panel, starting with water droplets on the sky. I also mixed some picked raspberry oxide ink with water, and added more splatters to the sky. I mixed some peacock feathers oxide ink with water, and added splatters to the snow section. Next I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and added splatters all over the panel, and then I did the same with liquid stardust.

Once my panel was dry, I attached all the images on my panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, added highlights and details using a white gelly roll pen, and then moved on to my greeting that I created using Brilliant Banner 3 dies. I cut the two main pieces out of light pink cardstock, and white heat embossed "You're on my nice list" from North Pole on the front piece. I layered both pieces on top of each other using 1mm foam squares, and for an extra shiny detail, I cut another banner out of holographic cardstock, stuck it behind my pink banner using liquid glue, and finally attached the completed banner in the top part of my panel using foam squares again.

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

Inside Greetings Seasons Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, I am Tina and today I made another fun shaped card! Since the holiday season is approaching quickly, I opted for a festive sparkly mitten combined with a great sentiment set the Inside Greetings Seasons stamp.

I started this project by creating a white card base using the large die from the Woolen Mitten set. After layering this base with the same shape cut from a red/pink knitted paper (Sweater Weather), I created the cuff from a matching striped paper (Joyful Holiday). These two patterns work so well together!

This card is a festive card, you must add some sparkle and shine! I browsed through my stash and found a pretty pink glitter paper for the trim (Woolen Mitten set).

The same paper was used to make three large snowflakes. From some scrap white paper I created extra trim, a button (Woolen Mitten set) and 3 smaller snowflakes (Snowflake Circle Frame die). That die is such a staple piece in my Christmas crafting supplies! I layered the small snowflakes on top of the large ones.

The sentiment was selected from the Inside Greetings Seasons stamp set and stamped with a pink ink from my stash. This phrase comes as one stamp, so I did a little ‘stamp surgery’ and carefully cut between to the two lines. That doesn’t hurt your stamp and you can always use it put together again on a block or in your stamping tool. I tried masking first but that didn’t work as I didn’t get a good impression.

Now it is time to assemble the mitten starting with the cuff and trim pieces. Next, I placed the large snowflakes in a triangle shape with the two sentiment strips in between. I threaded some pink twine through the buttonholes and glued the button to the trim border. A few Pure White Jewels were added to the middle of each snowflake.  

Thank you for visiting the blog and I can’t wait to see your festive cards! Happy crafting!

Winter Greenery Card with Alma

Hello everyone, Alma here. Today I’m showing you a card filled with lots of die-cut elements. 

At the center of my card is the Wood Barrel Die, which I colored using Distress Oxide Inks. I filled the Wood Barrel with die cuts from the Winter Greenery Dies, also colored with Distress Oxide Inks.

For my sentiment, I used the word "Holiday" from the Holiday Hugs Stamps set and die-cut the word "greetings" using the Greetings Word Die. For the background, I used the Dotted Diamond Portrait Die.

And just like that, my holiday greeting card is complete!

Diagonal Stripes Stencil Focused Card with Leanne

Hello there! Leanne here and I'm sharing a playful holiday card featuring a stenciled plaid frame with a few of the Roly Poly Penguins peeking out. I created the plaid pattern for the frame with a stencil. The Diagonal & Straight Stripes stencil is a set of two, which includes the Straight Stripes and Diagonal Stripes. I used the Diagonal Stripes stencil for this card. 

Here are the Sunny Studio Supplies I used to create this card:

Diagonal Stripes Stencil - To create a plaid pattern, I stenciled the stripes with light green ink onto an A2 size white card stock panel. I then turned the stencil so the stripes were going in the opposite direction and stenciled the panel again with the same green ink. After stenciling, I sprayed the panel with Cracked Pistachio Distress Spritz which gives it a speckled, shimmery finish. 

Stitched Ovals dies - I used the second largest die in the set to create the window in the plaid panel. 

Roly Poly Penguins stamp set and coordinating dies - For the penguin and candy cane images. 

Season's Greetings stamp set and coordinating dies - For the pine sprig and berry images.

Inside Greetings Seasons stamp set - For the stamped sentiment.

Snowflake Circle Frame dies - For the little snowflake and star embellishments. 

Copic colors used to color the penguins and their accessories: black & shading on white areas - N0, N2, N4, N6, N8; orange - YR12, YR16; red & pink - R00, R20, R21, R22, R34, R27; green - G20, G24, G28

I started this design with a white A2 card base. In the center of the card front, I applied the same light green ink I used for the stenciling. I then adhered the plaid frame with thin foam tape so it would be popped up. I tucked the penguins slightly under the frame edge so they would look to be peeking out. I left an open space to stamp the sentiment directly onto the background. I added the pine, berries, and snowflake to finish.

Merry Mocha Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today sharing a fun slimline Christmas card featuring the adorable Merry Mocha set. 

I stamped the mug from the Merry Mocha Stamps set four times onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Merry Mocha Dies to die cut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Whipped Cream: E40/81
Candy Cane: R24/29, C1/3
Holly: R24/29, YG03/17
Red Mug: R24/27/29
Green Mug: YG03/25/17
Pink Mug: RV00/02/55
Teal Mug: BG11/13/15

I used the smallest die from the Scalloped Square 1 Large Dies to die cut 5 squares out of white cardstock. I adhered each of the mugs onto the squares. I stamped the cute sentiment from the set directly onto the fifth square with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 

I adhered the squares to a piece of pink cardstock (4" x 8.5") with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to a white card base. I finished the card with some snowflakes die cut from white cardstock using the Basic Mini Shape Dies 2. I also added some coordinating jewels from the Bright Jewel Mix to the center of each of the snowflakes.

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.
