Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on Die Focused Card with Nicky

Hello! This is Nicky with you today on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog where I'm sharing this new classic style Christmas card, showcasing our Distinctive Door Holiday Add-On Dies. Please read on for all the festive details!

I took two panels of white cardstock (A2) and I die cut one of the panels using the Distinctive Door Die. I shaded the white parts using Copic markers in C3, C1 and C0 and some BG10 on the glass above the door and then I glued the elements in place on the other white panel. I die cut a black front door and this was glued within the white frame.

Next, I used the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-On Die and die cut all the interesting little features that make the scene pop! I used gold cardstock for the brass features and black, green, blue and green cardstock for the wreath, bows and lighted trees in pots.

All elements were glued in place. I used a green Copic marker and a white gel pen to dot in some interest to the trees and wreath and then highlighted points with the white gel pen. The trees and wreath were applied to the scene with dimensional foam tape.

For the bold sentiment I chose the words 'season's greetings' from the Holiday Greetings stamp set and I stamped it on white cardstock using 'Cherry Kisses' ink by The Stamp Market.  I die cut the sentiment using the coordinating Holiday Greetings Die, backed it with dimensional foam tape and applied it above the door.

I hope you enjoy decorating your own Distinctive Door for various seasons and occasions. Thanks for stopping by to read the blog today and I'll be back next Friday with something brand new to share. Have a wonderful weekend!

Roly Poly Penguins Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here with this bright and cheerful card showcasing the adorable Roly Poly Penguins and some delicious hot beverages that will keep us warm during the winter season.

I really wanted to feature all the Roly Poly Penguins on my card, so as very often I went for a slimline design, and started off by cutting an 8,5 x 3,5 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel. I first covered the entire panel with salvaged patina oxide ink, and next I added a fun polka dot pattern using a stencil from my stash along with peacock feathers oxide ink.

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

Here is detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Roly Poly Penguins - penguins, present, envelopes, small cup, small candy canes • Holiday Hugs - snowflakes • Mug Hugs - mugs and cups, large candy canes • Merry Mocha - cup • Baking Spirits Bright - cookies • North Pole - nice list.

I white heat embossed "Wishing you a cup of cheer" from Mug Hugs at the top of my panel, and then attached all my images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. As always I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and added some white blizzard nuvo drops here and there to make my card even more fun and festive. 

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

Buffalo Plaid Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am making a Christmas card with a special background featuring the Buffalo Plaid Diagonal Die. This die makes it very easy to create that extra interest on your cards. And I love that you have options, you can create an embossed look or step it up a notch by using the matching Diagonal and Straight Stripes stencils to add color as I did today. Either way, you will get an awesome result!

Since I am so ready for the holiday season, I browsed though my stash and found one of my all time favorite stamp sets Reindeer Games. Just looking at that cute Santa with his fluffy friends makes me happy! It was the perfect match for my plaid background.

Starting off with a white card base, I glued on a slightly smaller mat of teal card stock for some contrast. Next, I die cut two panels from white paper with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Chevron set. One panel was used to create a snowbank while I embossed the other one with the Buffalo Plaid Diagonal Die. The result is beautiful as is, but I decided to go for a bit more contrast and added a teal ink by using the matching stencil (Diagonal and Straight Stripes stencils). After adding this piece to my card base, I mounted the snowbank with foam tape.

For my scene, I selected the Santa and two of his adorable reindeer (Reindeer Games), a few Christmas trees (Seasonal Trees) and some presents (Holiday Express). I used my Copic Markers for all the coloring, and I added some snowy details with a white gel pen.

The sentiment was selected from the fun Deck The Halls set and stamped directly onto the plaid panel with a red ink from my stash. Then it was time to build the scene, starting with the trees in the background, and mounting the other images with foam tape. I used a grey Copic marker to add some shadows in the snow. Three white snowflake die cuts were placed around the sentiment and I embellished them all with a few Pure White Jewels.

Thank you for joining me and I am looking forward to seeing your creations with these fun dies! Happy crafting!

Happy Howl-o-ween Card with Alma

Happy Halloween, or better yet: Happy Howl-o-ween! Alma here with you, and today, I want to show you a steaming and bubbling card featuring the super cute Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps set.

At the center of my card, I've used the Wood Barrel Die to create a bubbling cauldron, where the sweet dogs from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps set are brewing up a spooky soup.

Have you heard about the amazing Mini Shape Dies from Sunny Studio Stamps? They are so versatile and can be used for all kinds of cards. For example, I used the Mini Shape Dies 3 and Mini Shape Dies 4 to cut out the stars, bubbles, and water droplets that fill my cauldron. I colored both the images and the die cuts with Copics, and added shading with pencils. The stars were cut out of glitter paper.

For the base of my card, I used black cardstock and layered it on top of green cardstock. I placed the cauldron in front of some white steam, which I created by blending with a white ink pad. After that, I assembled everything and added white highlights. The sentiment is also from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps set.

Now it’s time for you to get spooked – and of course, everyone gets a big sip of the delicious magic potion. Have a magical Halloween night!

Inside Greetings Seasons Card with Leanne

Hello! Leanne here and I have another holiday card to share. When I made last week's card with the Roly Poly Penguins, I stamped and colored extra penguins. I decided to incorporate them into this card design. I added one to the front and one to the inside of the card. 

Here are all the Sunny Studio products I used to create this card with a short description of what they were used for:

Roly Poly Penguins stamps and coordinating dies - for Penguin images Season's Greetings stamps and coordinating dies - for large Merry Christmas greeting Inside Greetings Seasons stamps - for stamped sentiment on the inside of card Woolen Mittens dies - for poinsettias, leave, & buttons Joyful Holiday paper pad - red & white gingham paper All Is Bright paper pad - polka dot paper

This card is A2 size. I covered the card front with the pattern paper. The polka dot covers the top two thirds and the gingham cover the bottom one third. I added the poinsettias over the seam which leaves plenty of room for the large Merry Christmas above. 

I Copic colored the penguins with the following: black - N2, N4, N6; shading on white areas - N0, N2; red - R22, R24; pink - R30, R22; orange - YR12, YR16; rosy cheeks - R00, R30

I die cut the poinsettias and leaves from white card stock. I used Catherine Pooler Eucalyptus ink to color the leaves. I used Rockin Red and Do-Si-Do to color the poinsettia petals. I layered the two shades of red to make the flowers look fuller. The Merry Christmas and inside sentiment were stamped with the Eucalyptus ink.
