Happy Harvest Happy Kiddos Fall Themed Card with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Happy Harvest stamp set along with Beautiful Autumn and Fall Kiddos to create a celebrate fall themed card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Happy Harvest Fall Kiddos Beautiful Autumn Fall Themed Card by Eloise Blue

To begin my card today I started off with stamping out my images from Happy Harvest and Fall Kiddos onto some white cardstock. I coloured them in with Copic Markers, die cut them out using the coordinating dies and set them off to the side. Now it was time to work on my layers. I used the Woodland Borders dies and cut out some hills from watercolour cardstock. I then used Distress Inks to ink blend different pieces. I used Shabby Shutters for the bottom grass layer, Mowed Lawn for the middle layer and a mixture of Broken China and Salty Ocean for the sky. Once they were all ink blended I flicked on some water and dried them off with a heat tool.

(Copic Markers Used: R17, R29, R89 / E000, E00, E21 / Y35, YR15, YR18 / Y11, Y15, Y38 / YG61, YG63, YG67 / B21, B24, B26 / E53, E55, E57 / W0, W2, W4, W7 / 0 / E43, E44, E47)

I then added foam tape onto the backs of all my background layers and adhered them together. Next I popped up all my images onto my background using a mixture of foam and flat adhesive and stamped the sentiment from 'Beautiful Autumn' onto the left hand side. To finish off my card I pulled a piece of plaid patterned paper from the new Gingham Jewel Tones paper pad and adhered my panel with more foam tape on top. 

Thanks so much for joining me today, I hope you enjoyed my card today. See you next week!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Cards with Leanne West

Hi everyone! Leanne West here today and I am very happy to be back with another guest blog post. I’ve been playing with many of the products from the Fall Release and absolutely loving them!! I have to say fall themed stamps are my favorite but what struck me the most about the new sets was that they don’t necessarily have to be used for making fall themed cards. I’m sharing four cards today that demonstrate my point. 

I’ve used Copic markers to color all the images and the coordinating dies to cut them out. A white gel pen was used to add some highlight detail. My go-to for scene backgrounds is ink blending on Bristol Smooth card stock. To help frame up the these scenes I’ve used the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies and Fancy Frame Circle Dies. All four of my cards are standard A2 size. 

These first two cards feature the Happy Harvest stamp set and coordinating dies. I just love the tree image and made it the focal point on both cards. One is definitely for fall and the other is a thank you card for any time of year.

For the "Autumn Blessings" card I used colors and images indicative of fall. I’ve colored the bottom hill border in a warm shade of green and the leaves on the tree are a mix of green, orange, and yellow. I decided to use the pumpkins and crows to up the fall factor of the scene but really there are so many options within this one stamp set to make many different fall scenes. And I just love that there’s a open space in the tree image to stamp a smiley face.

For the "Heartfelt Thanks" card I used brighter colors for the sky background and a cool shade of green for the hill border. I made the tree an apple tree and turned the crows into bluebirds . For the space in the center of the tree I stamped the heart image that’s included in the set. It looks like the heart is carved right into the tree trunk. I think apples can be for anytime of the year and for anyone. This would be a great teacher thank you card too! 

The next two cards feature the Home Sweet Gnome stamp set and coordinating dies. Once again this set could be used to make fall cards or anytime cards depending on the mix of images and colors used.

For the "What’s Up Gnomie" card I colored the images in “fallish” colors and used some wood grain pattern paper from the new Amazing Argyle 6x6 paper pack. The gnomes and mushrooms are so fun to color and the sky’s the limit with color choices. That’s what makes this stamp set so versatile! As you can see with my next card it has a very different vibe even though I’ve still used a gnome and mushrooms as the focal points.

For this last card I wanted to created a scene with a more summery feel. Switching up the colors to very bright pinks, yellows, greens, and blues helped accomplish that. I used some Classic Gingham 6x6 patterned paper in a coordinating pink to complete the look. 

I also wanted to note - for both of my Gnome cards I used a die from the new Woodland Borders die set to get those perfect rolling hills. 

I can’t say enough great things about these two new stamp sets I’ve used on today’s cards. They are must haves for sure! Thank you for joining me today and big thank you to Mendi for inviting me back. Until next time ;) happy stamping!

Fall Kiddos Friendship Slider Card With Lexa

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a slider card featuring the brand new products from Sunny Studio. You must be agree with me that this release is amazing. So many innovative dies and wide range of adorable stamps. One of my favorite is Fall Kiddos, this stamp set also works so well with other ones as you gonna see in today's card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Fall Kiddos Happy Harvest Sliding Window Friendship Slider Card by Lexa Levana

With Sliding Window Dies you can create interactive cards in an easy way. It has extra tag dies inside the set too. First, I stamped all of the images with Versafine black ink and watercolored them with Distress Markers. After finished with the coloring I cut each image with the coordinating dies. A little tip from me - you will need the tree dies from Happy Harvest stamp set just because you want to make your life easier. LOL. The coordinating dies cut very detailed, getting every little space in between the branches. 

I used the brand new Preppy Prints and Amazing Argyle paper pad to show you how amazing this patterned papers from Sunny Studio are. Love the bright and subtle colors, and of course, the quality is perfect. Plus they coordinate so well together, you don't have to think much then.

Here's the closer look if you pull out the tab, it'll show you a hidden message. I especially love the wood grain patterned paper, so beautiful.

As if there are not enough surprises, you can create another one on top part of the card. This sweet little girl is popping up to say hello with sunflowers beside her.

Nutty For You Gnome Treat Container with Vanessa

Hello everybody! Vanessa here today with a little treat container using several of the wonderful new stamps, dies and papers. I love the colors of fall, and the pretty new paper pads make it easy to create beautiful projects for this season!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Nutty For You Home Sweet Gnome Treat Container by Vanessa Menhorn

I first created the little container from one sheet of the Preppy Prints 6x6 Paper Pad, simply by joining two opposite edges of the sheet to create a tube, then closing the bottom and the top in opposite directions. After I had tied-on the ribbon, I die-cut the Nutty For You elements from brown cardstock and from woodgrain patterned paper from the Amazing Argyle 6x6 Paper Pad, assembled the pieces and adhered the acorn to the box. Now I created the bow from rustic twine and tied it to the die-cut. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Nutty For You Home Sweet Gnome Treat Container by Vanessa Menhorn

I stamped the cute gnome from Home Sweet Gnome onto white cardstock, colored it with Copics, die-cut it with the matching die and adhered it to the acorn with foam tape.

Finally, I die-cut the banner from Fancy Frames Rectangle, stamped the sentiment from Christmas Icons and tucked the banner behind the acorn.

I hope you agree that this release is marvelous! I can't stop playing with the cute new products! Thank you for stopping by today!

Beautiful Autumn Falling Acorns and Leaves Card with Franci

Hi there, Franci here with you today! I'm so super excited about this new release. Mendi designed so many beautiful products and I'm having the best time with them! Today I am showcasing the Beautiful Autumn mini set and I have to tell this is one of my favorites. It's a mini set so the price point is super good, there are lots of images and it has coordinating dies (that are available separately). 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Beautiful Autumn Falling Acorns and Leaves Autumn Themed Card by Franci Vignoli

I love these images, the foliage is beautiful and the acorn is soo cute! I love acorns, and I find this mini one so adorable. Also included in the set is a mini face you can stamp onto it to make it extra sweet! It's brilliant to have the little face apart from the acorn stamp so you can easily go for different styles every time.

To create my card I first stamped, colored and die cut all of the Beautiful Autumn images. Then I created my card base out of some white cardstock and blended some Spiced Marmelade Distress ink from the bottom left corner up. I also created some little splatters with the same color, a little bit of water and a fine tip brush.


Sunny Studio Stamps: Beautiful Autumn Falling Acorns and Leaves Autumn Themed Card by Franci Vignoli

I let everything dry, stamped my sentiment (which I love!) in black, and adhered all of the images down with lots of foam tape. I cut the images to clean the edges of my card et voilà! A super simple and pretty autumn card.

Right now it's so super hot here in Italy, so I love that these new products make me dream about the new upcoming season and bring the magic of fall all over my craft desk! Be sure to check all the new stuff and stay tuned for lots and lots of inspiration, can't wait to create more with this mini set and with my fave of all time: the Nutty For You set!
