Christmas Chapel Festive Christmas Card with Vanessa

Hello Sunny Studio friends! Vanessa here today with a festive Christmas card using Christmas ChapelChristmas Home and Festive Greetings

Sunny Studio Stamps: Christmas Chapel and Festive Greetings Night Sky Background Christmas Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I first stamped the chapel, the fence and the tree and colored it with Copics. Now I masked the stamped images and applied various blue inks with an ink blending tool to create the sky. Afterwards, I added droplets of white ink and removed the masks. I tore off a rough edge from a scrap of paper and used it as a mask to apply soft blue ink to the white area to create snow drifts. Then I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink, embossed it with gold embossing powder and adhered the panel to the card base.

Finally, for a festive shine, I applied Stickles to the snow. With these cute new stamp sets, I get into the right mood to create Christmas cards. 

How about you? Are you busy stocking up on cards for the season? Thanks for stopping by today!

Happy Owl-o-ween and A Bird's Life Friendship Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny fans, Nancy here today with a closer look at a few of my favorite Sunny Studios stamp sets. I combined Happy Owl-o-ween (owl), A Bird's Life (birds, nest, bird house), Barnyard Buddies (fence) and a cute sentiment from Cute as a Button to create this every day friendship card.

The watercolored background was created with a wash of Distress Oxide Mowed Lawn. I then used a small paintbrush to flick some "grass" and splattering of dots to make the background look more like grass. All of the stamped images were watercolored with Distress ink. The sentiment was stamped and embossed in white creating a nice bold contrast to the olive banner. A sprinkle of sequins adds a little bit of movement around the nest.
