Introducing Happy Home: From Our Home To Yours Card

Thank you so much for all the sweet comments left yesterday and your outpouring of love.  It really warmed my heart and I appreciate you guys!  :)

I'm happy to be kicking things off today with the Happy Home stamp set.  To share a little bit about myself, I received my college degree in interior design which had strong ties to architecture & drafting so I have always loved home motifs.  I wanted to design this set to include a number of popular American house styles.  Unfortunately, I didn't have room to squeeze all my favorites onto a 4x6 sheet, but the Craftsman, Victorian, and Colonial were lucky enough to make the final cut.  ;)

Sunny Studio Blog: From Our Home To Yours House Themed Handmade Card using Happy Home 4x6 Clear Craft Stamps

For my card I inked up my background using Stormy Sky & Bundled Sage distress inks, having them fade together towards the center..  I then repeatedly stamped the little grass border that comes with the set over that blended line and layered with the two houses and other accessories which had been colored with Copic markers and fussy cut with scissors.

Most of the sentiments in this set have been designed to interchange with the word "home".  I like how this particular sentiment can be stamped in one straight line or stacked in a column depending on the space you have available to work with.  :)


Here's a look at the full Happy Home stamp set used for today's card (available for purchase on September 8th):


Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you are having a great day!  :)

Introducing Sunny Studio ~ Our Fall 2015 Debut Release

Welcome!  I am so happy you are joining me here for my inaugural post here on the Sunny Studio blog!!!

For those not coming from my personal blog, you can read a little about my decision to start this company which I shared HERE.  I am super excited to be starting this new endeavor and I hope you will go on this crafty journey with me!  

I am launching this company with eight brand new stamp sets, five coordinating dies and one stand alone die set.  For the next couple of weeks I will be sharing daily ideas using each of the sets as we build in anticipation of our official grand opening.



If you would like to keep up to date with daily inspiration from not only myself, but some extremely talented ladies that will be joining us in the near future, make sure to sign up for our blog email list to the left.  I am tickled pink for our grand opening blog hop which will feature a number of special guest designers on September 8th.  ;)  

I have also started several social media pages that I will be updating daily which you can find by clicking in the appropriate icons to the left.  I'm particularly giddy about a flickr group that I have set up for you to share your own creations once my stamps and dies have been officially released.  We will be having special posts here on the blog called "Sunny Saturdays" where I will be highlighting all your adorable projects that caught my eye. My intention is to have a brand new release each season and I couldn't be more pumped to get things rolling!

Now let's kick things off with a peek of one of my favorites called Bundled up.  I still remember the fun I had playing with my favorite Mrs. Grossman's stickers and the classic bears from the 80's.  This little penguin is going to be just as much fun to dress with endless winter options.  Here are a few cute combinations I put together that I will be using on future cards.  

Thanks so much for visiting.  It really warm my heart to have you here.  I will be back tomorrow with another share.  Until then...  ;)
