Jolly Gingerbread Starry Sky Background Christmas Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny Studio fans, Nancy here with you today with a look at the Jolly Gingerbread stamp set in all its holiday glory! This my favorite set from the holiday to color. There are so many possibilities and color schemes for a village of gingerbread houses. 

I created a starry sky background with a splash of ombre watercolor using Distress Inks in Blueprint Sketch, Faded Jeans and Broken China. A splatter of water lends a twinkling sky effect that gives the background great depth. The gingerbread house was colored with Zig Clean Watercolor Pens for a bright splash of color. 

The smaller Christmas trees are from the Christmas Home stamp set. The title was stamped and embossed in white ink on a black background to give it some pop. Last, a shower of Christmas lollipops were added just beneath the starry sky to give the card some movement and color.

​This was such a fun card to create with some simple watercolor techniques. Check out the Jolly Gingerbread stamp and steel die set for your next round of Christmas cards!

Petite Poinsettias Merry Christmas Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Petite Poinsettias stamp set to create a simple Christmas Card. I love these layering sets, they're so realistic and gorgeous!

To begin I stamped out three Poinsettias with some red inks, layering them up from lightest to darkest as I go. I then stamped the centres with two yellow inks and the leaves with two greens also. I then used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Next, I took a piece of watercolour paper, and ink blended some Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers inks in the centre, and faded them out into white. I then flicked some water over top, dried it off with a heat tool and set it off to the side.

I then used the Merry Word Die to cut out a gold merry sentiment, and added little strips of foam tape onto the back. I then added foam tape to the back of my poinsettias also. I then adhered down my leaves and poinsettias in the top left hand corner. I then adhered my Merry word below and took the 'Merry Christmas' sentiment from Polar Playmates, masked it off and just stamped 'Christmas' below the Merry die cut. To finish off my card, I coated the poinsettias in Wink of Stella and also adhered my entire panel onto some blue woodgrain patterned paper and then adhered that onto a card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I'll catch you next time.
