Roly Poly Penguins Holiday Gift Tags with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and we are getting ready for the holiday season with these fun tags featuring the Mini Mat & Tag 1 and Mini Mat & Tag 2 die sets. Both sets contain rectangle mats but also all the elements to create fabulous tags.

To start, I die cut the bases for both tags from white card stock. Next, I used the same dies to create a sparkly snowbank from glitter paper. The sets have separate pieces for the tag toppers. For these I selected matching papers from the All Is Bright pack.

The white tag bases were colored with a cloud stencil from my stash and Distress Oxides Peeled Paint and Picked Raspberry.

I let these backgrounds dry and then added the toppers and snow. For the focal point and star of the show, I stamped and colored two adorable cuties from Roly Poly Penguins. I went with pink, teal and green Copic markers, a color combination I really like for winter projects. The penguins were added to the tags with foam tape for dimension.

Next, I got my splatter box out and some white paint which I diluted with a bit of water. I put the tags inside of the box and selected a fine brush to start adding some snow to the tags. The results are much more random than using a white gel pen, but I love the look on these little scenes.

The sentiment was taken from the Victorian Christmas set and I used matching teal and pink inks from my stash. Finally, I added some pink and green ribbon to the tags.

I hope you’ll have fun creating holiday tags! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Penguin Party Card by Amanda

Hello there, Sunny Studio Stamps fans! It’s Amanda Fitterer here with you on the Blog today! I get to share this super adorable slimline card I made! I don’t make slimline cards often, but when you’re trying to fit as many cute penguins in one scene, you just HAVE to, right?! Keep reading to see how I put this card together!

To create this card, I’m going to trim down a piece of white cardstock to slimline size (3.5”x8.5”). For my background, I am going to use the Scenic Route Stamps. I love how many different ways you can use this one stamp set! 

I’m using these stamps to create 3 little “scenes”. I’m going to use the Christmas light strands at the top and the little houses under that for one scene. At the bottom, I am going to use the hills & trees image. For the bottom scene, I am using the left side of the stamp and for the middle scene, I’m using the right side.

Once I’ve stamped my scenes, I’m ready to lay out my penguins from the Penguin Party Stamps. After figuring out which penguin will go where, I can stamp each one out with its little accessories!

Now that everything is stamped, I can use my Copic markers to color all the images. Once the penguins are finished, I can cut them out using the Penguin Party Dies. I am using 3D foam squares to prop up each of the penguins and adhere them to the card front.

The final step is to add my sentiments. I am using black cardstock and white embossing powder to make the sentiments pop! The sentiments are all from the Penguin Party Stamps. First, I’m going to stamp them onto black cardstock with my WOW! Embossing Pad. Then, I’m going to apply Super Fine White Embossing  Powder and use my heat tool to melt the powder. I’m using my trimmer to trim each sentiment into strips. I’m using 3D foam strips to prop the sentiments up and adhere them to the card front.

Finally, I can glue my card front to a slimline card base and I’m all ready to send it to someone special this Holiday season!

Thanks for stopping by the Sunny Studio Stamps Blog today! I hope you’ve enjoyed this post! I also hope you find some time to get crafty today! See you next time!

Season's Greetings Holiday Gift Tags with Leanne

Hello friends! Leanne here and I'm sharing some Christmas tags today. I've combined some pretty holiday paper with a big Merry Christmas greeting for these festive tags. 

Below are all the Sunny Studio supplies needed to recreate these tags.

Joyful Holiday paper pad - Patterned paper used for tag base.

Stitched Arch dies - I used the largest die in the set to cut out the tag base. I then punched a whole at the top with 1/4" paper punch. 

Season's Greetings stamp set & companion dies - For the large Merry Christmas. The pink ones have been stamped with Catherine Pooler Party Dress ink. The red is CP Rouge ink. 

Woolen Mitten dies - For the holly leaves. 

Brilliant Banner 3 die - For the white banner I stamped to/from on.

Inside Greetings Seasons stamp set - For the to & from.

To make the tags extra special, I added a little clay peppermint piece to the holly leaves and tied a jingle bell to the ribbon. The finished tag with ribbon measures 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide. 

One time saving tip I wanted to pass along...  when you need many of the stamped and die cut Merry Christmas words, die cut several blanks first with the companion die. Then use the negative die cut in a Misti to line up the stamp in that negative space. Close the Misti lid to pick up the stamp and place a blank die cut Merry Christmas piece into that opening. Stamp as you normally would, repeating the process with all the blanks.

Roly Poly Penguins Holiday Gift Tags with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today sharing a quick and easy holiday tag idea featuring my favorite Roly Poly Penguins, Holiday Greetings and Scalloped Tags Square Dies. I love how quickly you can pull last minute tags together with these bold sentiments and penguins. Not only can tags add such a fun touch to a gift or gift bag, but they can also be used as a quick way to decorate a card front.

I used the larger die from the Scalloped Tags Square Dies to die cut six tags out of Neenah Solar White cardstock. Post-its were used to mask off the scalloped edges of three of the tags before they were lightly inked with Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Mowed Lawn and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks.

I stamped the penguins from the Roly Poly Penguins stamps set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Roly Poly Penguins Dies to die cut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T3/5/7, W00/0/1, Y38 YR04, R00/30
Red: R24/27/29
Blue B0000/000
White: C00/1/3

For the sentiment, I stamped the Merry Christmas, Season's Greetings and Happy Holidays sentiments from the Holiday Greetings Stamps set with a red ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I used the coordinating Holiday Greetings Dies to die cut them out. I used the same dies to die cut an additional set out of white cardstock. I layered and adhered each of the sentiments with liquid adhesive for a bit of nicely secured dimension.

I trimmed the bottom part of the two larger penguins to make them look like they are on the inside of the tags. I adhered all of the sentiments and penguins to the inked tags with liquid adhesive. I used a white gel pen to add highlights to the elements.

I stamped a sentiment and the "To: and From:" from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps on the three remaining tags. I adhered these to the backside of the decorated tags for a more finished look. Finally, I finished each tag with a piece of bright and festive twine and a shiny bell. 

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

Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Holiday Cards with Amanda Fitterer

Hey there, crafty friends! It's Amanda here sharing TWO cards I created using a similar layout!

This first card was so much fun to color! I started by ink blending my background. I used Catherine Pooler Suede Shoes and Dress Blues. Next, I stamped some snowflakes from the Snowmen in Sweaters Stamps all around the background with WOW! Embossing Glue Ink. I applied WOW! Disco Ball embossing powder to the glue and then melted the powder with my heat tool.

Next, I stamped my snowmen from the Snowmen in Sweaters Stamps. I colored them with Copic markers and then cut them out with the coordinating dies. Once I had the adorable snowmen and snowflakes ready, I placed my card front in my MISTI to stamp my sentiment. This sentiment is from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps.

Once I stamped my sentiment, I was able to adhere my snowmen and snowflakes to the card using 3D foam squares. The last step was to attach my card front to my card base with double sided tape.

My second card uses the same sentiment from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps! I also placed it in the same position on the card.

For this card, I used a piece of paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper for my background. I glued that directly to my card front, which is cut down to 3.75"x5". My sweet little kiddos are from the Toasty Hugs Stamps. I used Copic markers to color them in as well! 

Which card is your favorite?!  I love them both for different reasons! I appreciate you coming by the Sunny Studio blog today and checking out my 2 holiday cards! I hope you have a great crafty day!
