Holiday Style: Creating A Whole New Look with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today sharing a fun card using the new Holiday Style stamp set. I have never really been someone who was drawn to layering stamp sets, but now that I have tried them, I really enjoy working with them. Plus, it gives me an opportunity to use my fun colored dye inks! Let's get started.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Holiday Style Ornament Christmas Card by Lindsey Sams (using Merry Sentiments and Smiley Faces from Fresh & Fruity).

To begin this card, I started with a scalloped rectangle cut from some plaid holiday paper. The rectangle is slightly smaller than an A2 size card base. Next, I cut a smaller stitched rectangle from some Kraft cardstock. This is the layer I planned to do my stamping on. I chose to use the pine branch and the ornament. I stamped the pine branch several times across the top of my rectangle, and then decided where I wanted to stamp each ornament. Once I had the ornaments stamped, I added their metal topper and hook. I love how all the layers make the ornament pop off the paper. 

Then, I decided to give my ornaments a face using the little faces that came with the Fresh & Fruity stamp set. The faces gave the card a more playful look which I liked. Finally, I stamped my sentiment from the Merry Sentiments stamp set, and put my Kraft panel onto my plaid rectangle using some foam tape.

I hope I've inspired you to give this set a try, even if you aren't normally a layering stamp kind of crafter. It's fun, believe me! Keep checking back to the blog for more inspiration and have a great day!

Blissful Baking & Little Angels Card with Video by Emily

Sunny Studio Stamps: Little Angels & Blissful Baking Sweet Christmas Card by Emily Leiphart.

I'm so excited to share my first video for Sunny Studio Stamps!  I'm featuring the Blissful Baking stamp set and coordinating dies but I also used Little Angels to deliver the treats and the Tag Topper Crescent Die Set to sponge my first ever billowy cloud sky.

View the video down below or on YouTube HERE.

I sparkled up the angels' halos and wings, and, of course, the cookies with a glitter pen. I purposely die cut three extra cookies to look as if they're falling off the tray towards the recipient. It's the reverse effect of the Star Wars opening crawl.
