Hogs & Kisses Card with Hanh

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today sharing a clean and simple Christmas card featuring these adorable hogs from the Hogs & Kisses set. Aren't these chubby hogs just the cutest?! I love how happy and excited they are for the holidays!

I stamped the hogs from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp and a candy cane from the Roly Poly Penguins Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock.  I used the coordinating Hogs & Kisses Dies and the Roly Poly Penguins Dies to die cut them out. I also used the dies in the Hogs & Kisses set to die cut a few hearts out of red cardstock. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Hogs: E000/00/21/11/13/15, R00/20, R22, E41/43/44
Red: R14/24/29/39
Green: YG01/03
White: C1

For my background, I used the Frilly Frames Hexagon Dies to die cut a panel out of white cardstock. I masked off the bottom half and lightly ink blended with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. I used a white gel pen to add some dots for snow. 

For the sentiment, I used the Brilliant Banner Dies 1 to die cut a banner out of teal cardstock. I stamped the "Holiday Hogs & Kisses" sentiment from the Hogs & Kisses Stamp set directly onto the banner with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used a Copic marker to add a little shadow onto the banner. The banner was assembled and highlighted with a white gel pen.

I adhered the sentiment banner and colored images to the inked panel with foam tape for a bit of interest. The panel was adhered to a piece of red cardstock before it was adhered to a white A2 card base (4.25" x 5.5"). I finished the card with a few of the red die cut hearts.

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.

Merry Mice Mouse Christmas Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share some Christmas cards featuring our Merry Mice Stamps.

For my first card today, I paired the mouse with cheese and mouse in the stocking images from the Merry Mice Stamps with our Fireplace Shaped Dies. This die set comes with all the pieces for stockings, wood logs, and flames, which I often like to use with this set, but this time I chose to simplify my card design to make it easier for mass production. To decorate my fireplace, I used Lawn Fawn's Brick Stencil with Lost Shadow Distress ink. I thought it would be fun to add a festive flair with some Tim Holtz Pine Twine from my stash, so I popped the stockings up with foam tape to compensate for the thickness of the garland. I also stamped the words "Mom," "Dad," and "Sister" on the cuffs of the stockings using the Outback Critter Stamps.

My second card featuring the Merry Mice Stamps utilizes the cheese trees, a snowman mouse, two mice, and their winter gear. For the base of my card, I trimmed a colorful, diagonally striped print from the All is Bright Paper pack and then layered it with a lengthened Rounded Rectangle Mat Die cut from white cardstock. I elongated the rectangle by trimming off the bottom and adding a sentiment pennant strip to fill the gap using a die from the Slimline Pennant Dies set. I also added the colorful strand of hanging lights from the Scenic Route Stamps and a snowy hillside with the Slimline Nature Border Dies. This card utilized many scraps and leftover elements on my desk, so seeing it all fall together so easily was fun. I love it when that happens!

My last card today started with the red gingham background I created when playing around and experimenting with our Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder one afternoon. I wanted to create a card that allowed as much of the background as possible to show through, so I framed my focal point images by stacking the Stitched Circle Small Dies, Scalloped Circle Mat 3 Dies, and Scalloped Circle Mat 1 Dies (listed from top to bottom). For the stars of the show, I grouped the mouse in the mug from the Merry Mice Stamps, the mug from the Merry Mocha Stamps, the peppermints from the Candy Shoppe Stamps, and the candy cane from the Roly Poly Penguins Stamps. Lastly, I heat-embossed my punny greeting from the Merry Mice set onto a green banner cut using the Brilliant Banner 2 Dies.

Here's a look at how I trimmed masking sheets to isolate each row of the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder and inked them row by row with Candied Apple distress ink using the PinkFresh Studio Blending Brushes. I can't believe we've had these embossing folders for years, but it took me this long to discover this new way to use them. I will use this technique more in the future, as it didn't take too long, but I love the results!

That wraps up my projects for today. Thanks so much for hanging out with me. I hope I've inspired you to spread a little happiness by sending out a card to someone you love. 💛
