Sun Ray Dies & Easter Wishes Easter Blessings Card with Lexa

Hello crafty friends! Lexa here today with a card that highlight the Sun Ray Dies and I'm pairing it with Easter Wishes. The Sun Ray dies actually pretty versatile, you can try to think out of the box, your imagination is the only limit.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sun Ray Dies and Easter Wishes Bunny Easter Card by Lexa Levana

I start my card with a piece of 4.25"x5.5" white cardstock and blend Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for the sky. I die cut the sun ray on two tones of yellow cardstock, I trace the circle lightly with pencil and adhere the rays one by one. It's actually a lot easier than it seems, mine is far from perfect but after I finished the whole card everything looks alright.

I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. After finish with the coloring, I use the coordinating Easter Wishes dies to die cut all the images. I always love to pop everything out, the white border around the images are perfect. The grass border on the front is added the last to add more dimension. The bunnies from Easter Wishes are my favorite, they look so adorable and fluffy. 


Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoy today's post and I wish you all an awesome day!

The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge Blog Hop


Welcome to Day 2 of "The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge" Blog Hop!  You should be arriving from the blog of Honey Bee Stamps or if you are just joining us you can start at the beginning of the hop at The Daily Marker.  

Kathy Racoosin from The Daily Marker has created this wonderful hop to give your creativity a jump start with some of her favorite stamp companies & Online Card Class partners.

The premise of “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge” is to color something everyday even if it’s for five minutes. (However feel free to  jump in or out as time permits). Any coloring medium is welcomed. Click here to find out where to share what you are coloring and join the encouraging community of happy colorists PLUS answers to other questions you may have.

Kathy encouraged us today to try and mix in other companies products besides our own into our creations today and I completely embraced that idea.  As a one-woman show I frequently don't find the time to use all the other wonderful stamps that I continue to buy from my favorite companies.  I had fun trying to squeeze a number of different stamps from my stash on my two card examples today.  I think the different companies play nicely together, don't you?  ;)

Timeless Tulips and Vintage Jar Thank You Card with Vanessa

Hi everybody! Vanessa here with a card idea using Timeless Tulips and Vintage Jar. I so love the layered stamps, as it makes it very easy to create beautiful flower bouquets. And that jar is genius, it looks like real glass! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Timeless Tulips And Vintage Jar Thank You Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I stamped the tulips and the jar onto white cardstock and die-cut them with the coordinating Timeless Tulips dies and Vintage Jar dies. For the tulips I used only two ink colors (MFT Dye Ink Coral Crush and Peach Bellini) plus white pigment ink. Since I didn't have a third ink color to pair with them I stamped one layer with the darker color and then white above to tone down the color...

Now I stamped the stems into the jar and onto a panel of white cardstock that I had trimmed a bit smaller than my card base. Then I covered my card base with checked patterned paper and adhered the cardstock panel.

After I had adhered the jar and the tulips with foam tape, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Daffodil Dreams onto a strip of patterned paper and adhered this to the jar. Finally, I added sequins. 

I hope you like today's idea! Thank you for stopping by!

Turtley Awesome Turtle Birthday Card with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today sharing my last post before I have my sweet little boy. I'll be taking a break from the design team for a while, but hopefully will be back to share more cards with you soon. I really appreciate all the love, support, and sweet comments you guys have given me during my time with Sunny Studio Stamps! Now let's get started on this fun birthday card using the Turtley Awesome stamps.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Turtley Awesome Turtle Birthday Card by Lindsey Sams

To begin, I cut a patterned piece of paper to an A2 size for my card base. Next, I cut a slightly narrower piece of orange card stock to go on top of the polka dot paper. I decided to do a circle design on the orange panel. I cut different sizes of coordinating stitched circles to make a cool design. Then, I stamped my sentiment on the bottom right corner of the orange panel and stamped the rest of the images on some white card stock.

I colored the turtle and birthday images using Copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating Turtley Awesome dies. Once I had my design layed out, I adhered all the circles down using some adhesive. I then popped up the stamped images using some foam tape, so they would really stand out on the card. To finish off the card, I added a few highlights using my white gel pen.

That's it for me today. I think this card turned out super cute and this set is great for boy birthday cards. With such a great price point, you should definitely give this set a try. Thanks so much for reading and have a great day!

Daffodil Dreams and Vintage Jar Card + Video with Emily

Hi everyone, Emily here. I have wanted to make this video since the release of Daffodil Dreams and Vintage Jar. These layered sets are absolutely stunning and I wanted to share how easy it is to use them. Simply use the number guides printed on the stamp set itself, or follow along using the stamp guide provided on the store site.

Since I really wanted the daffodils to stand out (yes, I know they're not really pink but perhaps someday there will be pink ones), I kept the rest of the card simple. I only sponged around the white linen panel to highlight the burlap wrap.

This card has many parts to it, but was extremely easy to make. I would love to receive a card like this myself so I think I will find it hard to give away. ;) The little burlap wrap and white hemp cord around the jar has such a huge impact and complements the stamped flowers so nicely!

Sun Ray Dies Rainbow Background Card with Eloise

Hi everyone. Eloise here and today I'm using the Sun Ray dies to create a fun rainbow background. Along with the Sun Ray dies, I'm also using the Friends & Family stamp set and Friends & Family Word dies for my sentiment also.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sun Ray Dies Rainbow Background Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I die cut a ton of the Sun Rays out of some watercolour cardstock. I then pulled lots of Distress Ink colours and ink blended them all with different colours and arranged them in rainbow order. Once they were all coloured, I went ahead and added adhesive to a scrap piece of paper and adhered them all done in the order I wanted. I then trimmed down the edges and any excess paper sticking out on the sides. I then added some fun foam on the back and adhered it to the card base.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Sun Ray Dies Rainbow Background Card by Eloise Blue

For the sentiment I die cut out the 'Friends' word die from the Friends & Family Word dies from some black cardstock and black fun foam and adhered them together, then onto my card. For the sentiment, it came from the Friends & Family stamp set and I stamped down the 'are better than therapy' in black ink underneath. For a finishing touch I added some Wink of Stella in the clear to the 'Friends' word.

That finishes up my card for today. These Sun Ray dies have so many uses, I just wanted to try and use them a little differently today.

Stop back by the blog the rest of the week for more inspiration!
