Playful Polar Bear Rainbow Stacked Presents Birthday Card with Franci

Hi there, I hope you are having a beary good time during these holidays so far! Franci here with you today with a winter birthday themed card. I think you can tell now that one of my favorite set from the last release is the Playful Polar Bears one. So I just had to pick a bear and the cute gift to create a scene!

This critter has to be "Beary Happy" since it's sitting on stack of presents! First of all, I repetitively stamped the little gift onto some white cardstock, and the bear onto some kraft cardstock with Versamark ink. I then embossed all of the images in white. I colored all the gifts, sponging some Distress inks and I chose rainbow colors to give them a twist and have a colorful card!

I created my card base, die cutting a stitched rectangle and a hill. I also die cut all the gifts and the bear with the coordinating diesThen I masked part of the bear off to be able to color his scarf and his nose with Distress inks (as I did for the gifts) and I added a rosy cheek with a Copic marker. Here's a little trick: if your white embossed images are not perfect fill all the imperfections with a white gel pen (and yes, I did just that!). 

I created my stack of presents and glued them all down with liquid glue and foam tape. I then cut a thin stripe of kraft cardstock and embossed my sentiment on it - "Beary Happy Birthday". It makes me giggle all the time every time I read it! Finally I glued my decorated panel on to my card base and added the sentiment and lots of clear sequins to complete my scene. 

Thank you so much for stopping by, have a lovely day!!

Polar Playmates Winter Themed Let's Chill Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny Studio fans, Nancy here with a look at the Polar Playmates stamp set. It's perfect for the season of wintery goodness. I like to have a pile of "just because" cards available during this time of year and this stamp set has just the right amount of cute for my greetings.

To create this card, begin by stamping a background using the snowflake stamps in the Polar Playmates stamp set. I used two different shades of blue ink to give it dimension. You could even use three different ink colors for more of a pop! A few strips of blue cardstock were cut into slivers to mimic "skis". These were a great backdrop for the die cut heart and our focal point - the baby seal.

The sled from the Playful Polar Bears made for a great resting spot for our little seal. A fishing rod and two tiny fishes add whimsy to the winter scene. A simple sentiment in black at the bottom of the page completes the card. 

Take a look at the Polar Playmates stamp set for all of your winter sentiments. It's a very versatile set with lots of themed and just because possibilities!
