Hello Sunshine Summer Themed Card with Vanessa

Hello everyone! Vanessa here today with a summer card inspired by my new sofa cushion. You can find inspiration everywhere, just turn around!

I started with a panel of watercolor paper and stamped the umbrellas from Beach Babies with light brown ink. Then I colored the images and the background with Peerless watercolors and stamped the "sunshine".

After I had adhered the panel to the card base, I die-cut the Hello Word Die from dark grey cardstock and added it to the card.

I hope you'll find something that inspires you, too! It can make you give your stamps a completely new look :) Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Fourth of July from Sunny Studio Stamps!

Just wanted to pop in and wish you all our American friends a safe and happy Fourth of July today.  Hope you have a wonderful time with friends and family!

To celebrate the occasion I created a little card combining our Sock Hop stamps with the flag from Stars & Stripes and some papers by Pebbles Inc.  I like to think of it as "pets on parade".  :)

Make sure to keep scrolling down to see Franci's adorable card for today.  

Big hugs!

Hello Sunshine Summer Themed Card with Franci

Hi there, Franci here with you today! This week is all about summer so I created a fun card with the Beach Babies set.

It's a super simple card and it's not a one layer one just because I love to pop my images out with some foam tape! First, I created my card base out of some white cardstock. Then I drew and cut a wavy stencil out of some acetate and I inked my background with Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers Distress inks.

I stamped all of the images with Memento black ink, colored them with copics and die cut them with their coordinating dies. I added some details with a white gel pen and the Wink of Stella clear brush. I stamped my sentiments with the same black ink used before and I adhered down the beach babies with foam tape.

Hope you like my card and thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a happy day!

You're Fintastic Underwater Summer Themed Shaker Card with Juliana

Hello friends! It's Juliana Michaels here to share a fintastic underwater shaker card I created using the Magical Mermaids stamp set, Oceans of Joy stamp set and Fancy Frames Oval die set.

I began by die cutting the large scallop oval from white cardstock using the Fancy Frame Oval die set. I used the same die to cute a double sided foam adhesive sheet to use as the shaker box frame. Since I didn't have an oval die the correct size, I freehand drew an oval onto a scrap of paper using the Fancy Frame Oval as a template. I trimmed it down to size and then used this as a template to cut a piece of acetate to cover the window on the frame. I also used this same template to cut another oval from a piece of cardstock. I used this as the background and backer for the shaker. Once all of the cutting was complete, I applied Distress ink in Abandoned coral to the oval frame and Mermaid Lagoon to the background oval using a foam blending brush.

I knew I wanted to create an underwater scene so I stamped the mermaid, turtle and other images with Versafine ink onto Bristol. I then colored them using Zig Clean Color Real Brush and added details with Chameleon Pens. Once the parts for the scene were completed, I adhered them to the background piece.

To assemble the shaker, I adhered the acetate to the backside of the cardstock frame. I then adhered this to the die cut foam piece. Next, I took the background piece with the underwater scene and carefully poured some sequins and jewels in the center of this piece. I then adhered the frame piece on top of this to complete the shaker. You can also fill the frame with the sequins, but I always find it to be more difficult to line up the pieces when I do it that way. My solution has been to pour the sequins on top of the back piece.

I hope you enjoyed learning about how to create an underwater shaker card using the Magical Mermaids stamp set, Oceans of Joy stamp set and Fancy Frames Oval die set. Thanks so much for swimming by today!

Sea You Soon Ocean Summer Themed Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a summer card using the Island Getaway Stamp Set along with Oceans of Joy. These are two of my most favourite stamp sets of all time and I thought I'd pull them back out and make a card with those sets.

To begin my card today I stamped out some images from both sets and coloured them in with Copic Markers. Once they were coloured, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Next, I took a rectangle die and cut it twice on top of each other, from some white cardstock cut to the same size as a card base. This creates two windows and allows me to create two scenes. Next I took a piece of watercolour paper and ink blended some Salty Ocean on the bottom and Tumbled Glass on the top to create my background. I wanted it to be darker at the bottom for the sea and lighter at the top for the sky. I flicked on a little water and dried it with a heat tool. 

(Copic Markers Used: Y11, Y15, YR15 / RV13, RV25, RV19 / Y19, Y38, YR16 / R24, R29, R89 / BV13, BV04, BV08 / B21, B24, B26 / E55, E57, E59 / N2, N4, N8 / 0 / G20, G21, G24 / YG03, YG13, YG17 / YG63, YG07, G28)

Next up, I added foam tape around my frame and adhered it down into place. I then did the same with the images. I added the sand and palm tree at the top with the smaller hibiscus flower and the sea animals at the bottom of my panel, using flat and foam adhesive. My last step was to add the sentiment, I took the 'Sea You Soon' sentiment from Oceans of Joy and stamped it down in black ink. 

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

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!
