Guest Designer Spotlight: Beach Babies Cards with Kay Miller + Sale

Hi there, it's Kay Miller here! I am super happy to be guesting again this month with Sunny Studio Stamps! Today I have a couple of cards to share with you featuring the adorable Beach Babies stamp set and Beach Babies Coordinating Dies.

For my first card, I started by creating a round background with Distress inks. I first created a stencil by cutting a circle out of a piece of card stock. I then blended Antique Linen and Peacock Feathers ink inside the circle onto my white card stock.  Next I sprinkled the sand with some Vintage Photo Distress ink mixed with a little water, then misted the whole thing with plain water and blotted.

I stamped the sentiments straight onto my card with black ink. The cute images were colored with Copic markers, cut out with the coordinating dies, and adhered with foam tape.

For my second card, I decided to use all of the smaller images in the set to create a fun background for my sentiment. I randomly stamped them around using black ink, starting with the largest and then fitting the smaller images in-between. I colored them all with Copic markers when I was done, and then I sprinkled with a bit of Peacock Feathers Distress ink.

The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder onto black card stock. I cut it out with a banner die, and added it to the card with foam tape.

I hope you have enjoyed my cards today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Oceans Of Joy Summer Themed Birthday Shadow Box Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a new technique, the "inside shadow box", that I've learned from Jennifer McGuire's YouTube channel. I just love this kind of simple yet surprising greeting cards, and I think they will make anyone's day. Don't you agree? I used two older stamp sets from Sunny Studio - Oceans Of Joy and Magical Mermaids.

I kept the front of the card simple and adorable. I used the turquoise polka dotted patterned paper from the Polka-Dot Parade paper pad just because - polka dots are life. Yes, I love them that much! I created a circle panel with basic dies, and then blended Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress inks onto it. I also stamped some bubbles with matching dye inks on the background. 

All of the images are stamped with Versafine black ink and watercolored with Distress markers like I always do. I curved the sentiment and stamped it on the bottom part of the circle. The adorable turtle, along with his little friends, are bringing two balloons for someone inside this card.

Ok, this is the most exciting part. When you open the card, it creates a shadow box inside. Look who's here? The little mermaid and her little fellas. I love it so much and I think I will make tons of cards like this in the future. I adhered some of the images in the front panel and some of them in the back to create a proper dimensions.

This is how the card looks from different side. I stamped "happy birthday" inside. I hope you've enjoyed this fun card. Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you next week!
