Bundled Up Cool Christmas Kraft Christmas Card by Melissa

Hello everyone, Melissa here. Today I have a card to share with you using the Bundled Up stamp set. I love how this set comes with a bunch of different accessories for the little penguin so you can dress him up just how you like! 

To create this card I first got out a piece of Neenah desert storm card stock. I created the background by stamping and heat embossing snowflakes using white embossing powder and added little dots with a white gel pen. I then die-cut a white hill out of card and adhered it to the bottom. For the sentiment I cut a piece of patterned paper into a banner and heat embossed the greeting on with white embossing powder. 

Last but not least I needed to stamp and color the little penguin. After he was colored I fussy cut him out and added him to the card. To finish it off I mounted the card onto white and black card stock and added a shadow under the penguins feet.  

I hope you enjoyed the card for today! Thanks for stopping by!

Sunny Saturday Share: Penguin Birthday & Christmas Cards

Hello there!  How was your Thanksgiving?!  Did you brave the crowds and do some holiday shopping afterwards?  I traditional head out with one or more of my sisters and I gotta say it was pretty wonderful this year.  It must have something to do with more retailers offering their deals online to thin out the stores a bit.  Of course I did both types of shopping so I'm feeling pretty spent in every sense of the word.  ;)

Today we have some cute cards to share all using our penguin images from our Bundled Up and Snow Kissed stamp sets.

Up first is a super clever card by Angel Johns combining our Bundled Up and Birthday Smiles stamp sets.  I just love how she took the ice cream cone and turned it into a party hat using one of the pom-poms from the hats in the set!

For our second share we have an adorable card by Photcrafter posted to our Flickr group.  I am in love the colors of her card and the cute way she has the penguins peeking out from the circle windows!

Up next is a darling card by Cindy Horvath from over at the Mod Squad Challenge Blog using our Snow Kissed Stamp Set.  I love her use of patterned paper and how she colored her image to match.  So adorable!  

Our last card features that same penguin image in a soft and sweet snowy scene from Cards By Nicola.  So cute!

I hope you will join these ladies by sharing your darling creations with us on our Facebook page, in our Flickr group or by tagging us with the hashtag #SunnyStudioStamps on instagram.  

I hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend!  :)

Santa's Helpers Merry Puppy Dog Card with Marion

Hello. Marion here with a simple Christmas card using the Santa's Helpers stamp set, along with the coordinating die set.

I coloured in this cute little guy with Copic markers and popped him up on some foam squares to add some dimension to the card. To create the sentiment, I adhered four layers of the word merry together to form a thicker die sentiment from red cardstock.

The holly berries are covered in Glossy Accents and there is a little bit of shimmer on the Santa hat with some clear Wink of Stella Glitter brush pen.

Sunny Studio products used:

• Santa's Helpers stamp set
• Santa's Helpers die set

How is your Christmas card making going? Hopefully this week the DT has inspired you with some new ideas.

Thanks for visiting today,

Marion

Merry & Bright Holiday Christmas Card with Elise

Hello there! It's Elise again to share a fun Christmas card with you today that features the Santa's Helpers coordinating dies!

I really wanted to focus on using some of the extra dies that are included in the die set, such as the merry & bright sentiment, as well as the holly leaves and berries!

I die cut the sentiment from gold glittery paper as well as black card stock. I offset the black die cut to give the sentiment a shadowy look to help it stand out against the white background. Here is a close up on the sentiment:

Next, I die cut the holly leaves and berries from green and red striped patterned paper, and arranged them around the sentiment. I finished the card by adding some gold enamel dots, red patterned paper for some more color, and a large green bow on the side!

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a great Thanksgiving!  :)

Santa's Helpers: Happy Howlidays Christmas Card with Audrey

Hello there! Audrey here with a card featuring the Santa's Helper's stamp set.  It was difficult trying to decide which images to use for my project today, but then as I was coloring them, I had a lightbulb moment.  At first when looking at this image I didn't see a cocker spaniel, but then I decided to color the patch of hair under their chin like a bandanna and suddenly I thought they started looking like my babies!  I'm so excited to finally have a stamp that looks like them!

I started off by watercoloring a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor paper with my Artist's Loft watercolor set from Michaels.  When it was dry, I ran it through my die-cut machine to give it a stitched edge. I wanted to bring in a bit of red to coordinate with the Santa's hats so I pulled out a piece of red and white striped patterned paper from my stash.  I popped the dogs up using foam tape after die-cutting them with their coordinating dies.  I stamped a sentiment from the set on a speech bubble die-cut and then added some diecut snowflakes which are also included in the Santa's Helpers die set.  To add a bit of sparkle around the snowflakes, I added some sparkling clear sequins, and then mounted the panel on a dark green card base using foam tape.  Finally, I added a bow with my favorite red and white bakers twine.

That's all for me today!  I hope you like my card!  Be sure to stop back by tomorrow with more inspiration from the design team!  Happy Thanksgiving to you!!

Santa's Helpers Purrfect Kitty Cat Christmas Card with Heidi

Hello everybody, welcome back to the Sunny Studio Stamp blog!  This week we are introducing the Santa's Helpers stamps and coordinated die set. This stamp set is perfect for all you cat and dog lovers out there. Here is my card that I created to share with you today.  I hope you'll enjoy it!

For this card I stamped and colored the images using Copic Markers.   I then created a brick background on a piece of red cardstock using a stencil.  I added a scalloped glittery green border and hung the stockings with the kittens on top using some festive colored bakers twine. 

I stamped the sentiment directly onto the card base along with a little paw print from the set. I also added some detail with a white gel pen on the stockings. 

The "Santa's helpers" stamp and die set are available at the Sunny Studio Stamp shop.  We can't wait to see what you create with them!   Have a lovely day!
