Ric Rac Borders Birthday Wishes Card with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I have a birthday card to share with you all using Ric Rac Borders, Birthday Balloon and the Wishes Word Die.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Ric Rac Borders Birthday Wishes Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today, I first cut ten borders from Ric Rac Borders out of five colours of cardstock. I used a green, yellow, orange, pink and purple. Once they were all cut out I adhered them in a pattern diagonally onto a white card base with some liquid glue. Next, I pulled the Birthday Balloon stamp set out, and stamped and layered up a blue balloon. I used a dark blue since I feel like it matches my colour scheme better. Once that was stamped, I also stamped a string and cut them out using the coordinating dies and my scissors for the string. I set them aside and worked on my sentiment.

For my sentiment, I cut the Wishes Word Die from some navy blue and black cardstock. I then used liquid glue to layer them up to seem like there was a shadow behind the word. I added foam tape onto the back and adhered it down onto my card base. I then added foam tape to the balloon as well as the string and adhered those down also. I made it seem like the balloon was floating off the 'wishes' word. Last step was to finish off my sentiment, I used the Team Player stamp set and white heat embossed 'birthday' onto a strip of black cardstock, I then adhered that down and adhered it above the 'wishes' word also.

That finished up my card for today, I hope you enjoyed and I'll catch you all next time.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Tiny Dancer Video with Laura Sterckx

Good morning, friends! I'm Laura Sterckx from Making Cards Is Fun and today I'm excited and honored to be guest designing for Sunny Studio Stamps. This time I'm featuring the Tiny Dancers set from their newest release to make a cute and girly, prima ballerina birthday card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Tiny Dancer Girl Themed Birthday Card by Laura Sterckx

I had lots of fun coloring these ballerinas. I experimented with different skin tones and hair colors. I'll be doing some more research on different skin and hair color combinations because I could use some more variety.

I like when a stamp set comes with smaller designs. These are perfect to make your own background or add a fun little finishing touch to a card. In this case I used the flower to make a background. I colored them to match with the ballerinas. I really love how that turned out.

To fill up the center dot of the flowers I used Nuvo Drops from Tonic. I used Carnation Pink, Caribbean Ocean and Dandelion Yellow to match with the flowers and ballerinas. To add an extra pop of glitter I used Gold Dust glitter card stock from Tonic. It's the perfect dose of bling-bling. Finally I adhered a small strip of patterned paper and applied Tonic's Crystal Glaze.

I've created a video tutorial sharing my process with you (you can view it in HD on my YouTube Channel HERE).


That's it for now. Thanks for stopping by. Big hugs.

Born To Sparkle Watercolored Background Ballerina Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a card that highlighting Born To Sparkle stamp set and Sparkle Word Die. I pair them with Tiny Dancers, I know I've paired them together couple of times but somehow I just think they are belong to each other.

First of all to create colorful background, I blended Distress Inks in Tumbled Glass, Worn Lipstick and Spiced Marmalade. After I'm happy with the blending, I splashed some water on it. The sparkles are stamped with various dye inks that match the background color. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. The little ballerina and her essentials will be a perfect card for a little girl, even my daughter are so excited about this card.

The Sparkle Word Die is cut on silver glitter cardstock from Doodlebug (one of the best glitter cardstock ever since the glitter won't fall aparat). I also use the smallest Fancy Frames Square Dies to frame the three images from Tiny Dancers. I'm really happy with the background I made with Born To Sparkle stamps, this stamp is so versatile that you can use it for any occasions all year around. One of a must have item to invest for.

That's it for today, thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have an amazing day!

Bold Balloons Rainbow Balloon Birthday Card with Vanessa

Hey everybody! Vanessa here with a colorful rainbow balloon card. The Bold Balloons set is such a fabulous set I can't get enough of! Here is my card for this week:

Sunny Studio Stamps: Bold Balloons Rainbow Balloon Birthday Card by Vanessa Menhorn

I masked off a rectangle on the front of my card base and inked it with various inks to create the rainbow. After I had removed the mask, I stamped the tiny dots with matching inks. Now I stamped the balloons, die-cut them with the matching dies and adhered them with foam tape. I drew the strings with a black marker and stamped the bands.

Next, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Polar Playmates onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it to the card. Finally, I added matching sequins.

Fun and colorful, don't you think? This stamp set makes it so easy to create! Have a wonderful day everyone!!

Birthday Balloons Custom Kitty Balloon Card with Franci

Hi there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with you today to share two girly birthday cards! The new Birthday Balloons stamp set is amazing. You can create super wow, layering effects with it. But today, I decided to create my own custom balloons! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Birthday Balloons Purrfect Birthday Custom Kitty Balloon Card by Franci Vignoli

First I die cut two little balloons with the coordinating dies and then I stamped two little kitties from the Purrfect Birthday stamp set on them and colored them with Copics.

I die cut two stitched rectangles and created a custom cloud stencil from some acetate. I sponged some distress ink to create my sky and then let my backgrounds dry. Then I stamped my sentiment at the center of my cards and added some details like the balloon string and the little bow.

I adhered the balloons with liquid glue and foam tape and add some sparkle with a Wink of Stella clear brush. I adhered my panels onto two lilac card bases and they are ready to spread birthday sweet wishes all over!

Hope you like my cards and thank you so much for stopping by! Have a lovely day!

Rain Showers Pet Sympathy Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny fans, Nancy here today with a look at the Rain Showers background stamp. I love this compact design with it's intricate rain drops and whimsical feel. Let's take a look at how to make an interesting background pop.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Rain Showers Pet Sympathy Fancy Frames Card by Nancy Damiano

To create this card, begin with a white card base and use the Fancy Frames Circles dies to cut a window in the center. I left the two medium sized steel dies in the center to create this nested design. Next, use pigment ink in light blue and the Rain Showers stamp to cover the front of the card. As you proceed to the bottom of the card use lighter and lighter shades of blue ink to create an ombre effect. This makes it look like the rain is literally fading away at the bottom. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Rain Showers Pet Sympathy Fancy Frames Card by Nancy Damiano

Stamp the tree branch and flowers from the A Bird's Life stamp set, the kitty from the Purrfect Birthday set and color with Copic markers. Place light blue cardstock in the middle of the die cut opening and layer the stamped icons to create a scene. Lastly, use black Versafine ink to stamp the sentiment from the Pet Sympathy stamp set.

And there you go - an ombre rain shower design that pops and adds interest to a white background. Take a look at the Rain Showers stamp for your next card!

Tiny Dancers Tone-On-Tone Stamped Background Card with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I have a card to share with you all using the Tiny Dancers stamp set to create a quick and easy card that would be perfect to give to a child who loves ballet.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Tiny Dancers Fancy Frames Tone-On-Tone Stamped Background Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today, I stamped, coloured and die cut all my images from the Tiny Dancers set using Copic Markers for all my colouring. Next step, I pulled a piece of Distress Watercolour Cardstock and used some light grey ink and stamped out all the little images from the set onto the background. I used the ballet shoes, dress, flowers and other tiny images to fill in the gaps. Once I stamped the background, I used the same grey ink to ink blend around the edges of the cardstock. I then set that aside and worked on the rest of the elements.

Next up, I used the Fancy Frames Squares dies, cut the middle sized one out of some aqua cardstock and added foam squares to the back. I then adhered it to the centre of my stamped background at an angle so it appeared to be a diamond shape. Once that was adhered I added foam squares to the back of my dancer images too and adhered them down in the centre. I then adhered some flowers on the left hand side that I coloured up also. To finish off my card, I stamped the 'Love You Sweetheart' sentiment in black ink onto a strip of pink cardstock that I used some Picked Raspberry to blend a little gradient on the bottom. I then adhered that down with foam squares as well as that completed my card for today.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you were inspired and I'll catch you next week!
