You're An Eggcellent Friend Easter Chick Card with Heidi

Hello there!   It's Heidi here today with a bright and cheerful card using the "A Good Egg" stamp set and coordinating dies.

To create my card I first watercolored rainbow stripes onto some white cardstock using a wide paintbrush.  I then die-cut the panel using a stitched rectangular die from my stash.  

To create my scene I colored six of the eggs, the paint bucket and little chick with my Copic Markers to match the watercolors.  I added a strip of black cardstock to help ground my scene and make the images pop.

I hope I've inspired you to take a closer look at this adorable set!  Make sure to stop back by for more inspiration this week using the Sunny Sentiments stamp set.  

A Good Egg Baby Chick Easter Card with Melissa

Hello everyone!  Melissa here.  :)  I am sharing a card with you today using the super cute stamp set A Good Egg, this set is perfect for Easter but also works well for plenty of other occasions. It is just too cute!   I created a super simple card... 

To make the card I stamped this cute sentiment on the bottom of a rectangle die-cut panel. I then stamped three of the little chicks hatching in a row and colored them with Copic markers. I added little dots with a gel pen to the one on the right and added some stripes to the one on the left. To finish the card off I added a little shadow underneath the chicks and mounted them onto a card base with some patterned paper. 

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

My "Live Inspired" Podcast Interview with Tracie Claiborne.

I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday weekend!  I just wanted to pop in and share that my "Live Inspired" interview with Tracie Claiborne is now live at her blog.  I share a bit more about how I went about starting this company and a little bit about my design process.  

I hope you will stop by for a listen.  Tracie is such a sweetheart and she has so many inspiring guests each week.  I've become an avid listener--It's so fun to listen while I work or craft.  

This week she's also offering a special discount code for her readers to our store, as well as a special giveaway (listen to the podcast for details).  

Before I leave I want to apologize for the echo for my portion of the conversation.  I'm embarrassed to admit I had to huddle under my desk with a microphone because the cord wouldn't reach up to my desk top & I realize now that wasn't such a smart idea.  So sorry...  ;)

May Your Day Be Filled With Sunshine Card by Francine + A Sale

Hi everyone, Francine here!  

Today, I’m featuring the newest Sunny Sentiments stamp set and here is my card:

I went for a clean and simple design! The font is so BEAUTIFUL, that it doesn’t need more!!! So I focused on that. To make the sentiment pop, I decided to create a sunny background with Distress inks. I first sponged my panel with Squeezed Lemonade. I then made a self-made mask with triangles that I sponged with Wild Honey and Mustard Seed. I removed the mask and I sponged the whole background with Mustard Seed again. I kept the top of the card lighter.

Next, I stamped the “May your day be filled with” text with black ink to the background. I then embossed the “Sunshine” with white embossing powder on black cardstock and fussy cut it. I adhered it below the stamped sentiment with foam pads. To finish off my card, I die cut a cloudy border from white cardstock that I also fixed with foam pads for more dimension and I added 3 golden sequins.

Check out the Sunny Sentiments stamp set! There are many other stamps in it, which makes this set super versatile!  

I hope you like what you’ve seen! Thanks for joining me today and happy crafting!

Francine

Sunny Sentiments Hello Sunshine Card with Elise

Hello! It's Elise to share a sunshiny card that features Sunny Studio Stamp's "Sunny Sentiments" stamp and die! I wanted to create a card that was sunny and bright, so here is what I created:

This card also features the Sunshine word die, which goes perfectly with this stamp set! I stamped the clouds onto some blue card stock, and stamped the sun onto some yellow patterned paper, then die cut them with the coordinating dies. I attached the sun and clouds with different amounts of foam tape to get a bunch of dimension. The sentiment is cut from blue glitter paper to add some sparkle!

I finished the card by adding a few hearts die cut from pink patterned paper with the Stitched Heart die and hearts from the Rain or Shine dies. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you like this card! Stop by again tomorrow for some more inspiration! :)

Sunny Sentiments You are My Sunshine card by Marion

Hello. It's Marion here with another bright and sunshine-y card using the Sunny Sentiments stamp set. I also used the Sunny Sentiments dies that coordinate with the stamp set.
My card was very much inspired by this recent Cas(E) this Sketch! #157.

 
Using a sunshine mask, I inked up the rays with Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. I then stamped and die cut the sun and the clouds and coloured them with Copic markers. The sun has a nice thick layer of clear Wink of Stella glitter brush pen for lots of subtle sparkle.  I adhered a yellow piece of card stock to the bottom of the card before stamping the sentiments.

Thanks for visiting today. I hope the sun is shining bright where you are today,

Sunny Sentiments Encouragement CAS Card with Heidi

Hello everybody! Heidi here!  This week we are introducing the "Sunny Sentiments" stamp set so I created this encouragement card, using a very clean and simple approach. I also use the "Sunshine word" die.  I hope you'll enjoy today's card.

For this card, I masked a portion of the front panel, then I placed a sun rays stencil and inked the stencil using distress inks. I picked this fabulous encouragement sentiment from the "Sunny Sentiments" stamp set and stamped on the center of the stenciled portion of the card. I cut the "Sunshine word" die using yellow and black card stock and placed them on an offset to create the illusion of a drop shadow on the word die. I adhered the die-cut panel to the card and lastly I added some sequins as a finishing touch.   

CAS (Clean and Simple) cards are one of my favorite cards, and with the adorable "Sunny Sentiments" stamp set you can create CAS cards or combine it with other sets to create happy and lovely cards. Visit the Sunny Studio Stamps shop to purchase the products feature on this post. 

I hope you enjoy this card.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a lovely day!
