Farm Fresh Cards with Ana and Christy

Hi sweet friends! It’s Ana today with a cute and punny card featuring new Farm Fresh stamps and coordinating dies as well as Slimline Nature Borders dies.

Oh my goodness, when I saw this stamp set I was sooo excited! I’ve been making a lot of cards for all my friends and this set is absolutely perfect to make a card for my friend from Iowa, who lives in a tiny town surrounded by miles of farmlands.

I started the card by stamping the images from the stamp set, coloring them with Copic markers and cutting them with coordinating dies. I absolutely love that windmill, barn, tree and the fence are all one stamp, and make such a quick and easy way to create a scene.

To create the clouds, I used cloud die from Slimline Nature Borders dies, cut 3 sets of clouds and inked them with Wild Honey, Fossilized Amber and Squeezed Lemonade, then layered them with tape adhesive.

I cut the grassy hill next, using the Slimline Nature Borders dies as well, and inked the die cut piece with Fossilized Amber, Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn distress inks. Using little grass stamps (from Farm Fresh set) I randomly stamped grass around the die cut piece.

I tucked the barn/fence/windmill image between the clouds and the grassy hill and adhered the images with foam tape. I finished the card by stamping the punny sentiment and adding a few highlights with white gel pen.

Is this set so super cute or what?! I love that it can be combined with so many previously released stamp sets! Thank you so very much for visiting today, I hope you have a fantastic week!

Hey friends, Christy here with another card using Farm Fresh! Can you tell I love this set? I've already used it three times, and gotten three totally different looking cards. It's just that versatile! This is definitely one you will find yourself reaching for over and over.

Today I wanted to focus on the scarecrow and his feathered pals, and I paired them with some pumpkins from Harvest Mice and a leaf from Bountiful Autumn. I colored all my images to match my Colorful Autumn patterned papers and then trimmed them out with the coordinating dies.

For my backgound, I die cut a panel from the Classic Sunburst 6x6 pack with a Stitched Arch. I added a bit of craft cardstock at the bottom for the ground and stamped a sentiment in brown ink. I cut my Colorful Autumn papers down with the outer die from Frilly Frames Quatrefoil and adhered them to my card base. Then I popped the focal panel up with foam tape over to the right. I decided not to add any embellishment, but let the pretty papers and coloring be the star.

Harvest Mice Cards with Juliana and Isha

Hello Sunny Studio friends! It's Juliana and today I'm sharing a card featuring the adorable new Harvest Mice Stamp Set. I've combined it with the Comic Strip Everyday Dies to create a fun little autumn scene.

I began by stamping images from the Harvest Mice Stamp Set. I then colored them using Copic Markers and die cut them using the coordinating dies. I also added a couple of sunflowers from the Happy Harvest Stamp Set.

Once all of the coloring and stamping was completed, I took a piece of white cardstock and die cut it using the frame from the Comic Strip Everyday Dies. I then die cut it again from a light blue cardstock and used this to fill the inside of each of the openings. To further add to the scene, I used the grass die from the Comic Strip Everyday Dies to cut strips of green cardstock. This made creating each of the backgrounds super fast after spending so much time coloring.

To finish off the card I added a sentiment from the Harvest Mice Stamp Set in the upper right hand opening.

I hope you enjoyed today's inspiration featuring the Harvest Mice Stamp Set. Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hello Everyone! It’s Isha with you today sharing a no-line watercoloring technique card with you featuring the Harvest Mice stamps. These mice are so adorable and the coordinating stamps are perfect to create beautiful scenes.

Firstly I stamped the Harvest Mice stamp images onto watercolor paper using Antique Linen distress ink. Color them using watercolors. We can achieve a beautiful no-line color look using antique linen ink. Die-cut the images using the coordinating dies.

Die-cut the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles Die twice, once using white cardstock and second time using the Classic Sunburst pattern paper. Sponge wild honey distress oxide ink to the white inside parts. flick some ink. 

Adhere the pattern paper die-cut to the kraft cardbase. Adhere the white inside panels. Create the scene using the colored images. I used 3d foam on some of the images to create dimension and more interest.

Stamp the sentiment, die-cut the speech bubble, adhere the grey bubble slightly offset. Thanks for dropping by!

Scaredy Cat Cards with Ashley and Mayra

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a super cute and not-so-spooky Halloween card featuring the new Scaredy Cat set! I was really happy with the pumpkin patch I created last week, so I decided to use another pumpkin patch variation for this card. The kitty sitting in the giant jack o' lantern fits right in!

I started by stamping the farm scene from Farm Fresh in VersaMark ink and embossed with white. I blended Distress Oxides in Antique Linen, Victorian Velvet, Seedless Preserves, and Chipped Sapphire on top then splattered the top section with white acrylic paint for a starry look. I decided it looked slightly off balance, so I added the moon from Scaredy Cat with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with white too. Then I die cut the whole piece with the frame from Frilly Frames Stripes and added it to a piece of patterned paper from the Colorful Autumn pack.

I stamped the kitty in the pumpkin from Scaredy Cat along with mice and pumpkins from Harvest Mice and a couple additional pumpkins from Bountiful Autumn. I used Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink so I could color with Copics. I used the matching dies to cut everything out, then layered the images onto my card. I popped the kitty up with foam tape so that he was clearly in the foreground and the star of the show. I finished with the sentiment from Scaredy Cat stamped in VersaMark ink and embossed in white.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Hello and happy Monday everyone, Mayra here. It is the last day of August, can you believe it?! I have a fun card to share with you today. I used the super cute Scaredy Cat stamp set from the newest release. 

I began by coloring my image using Copic markers...oh, lol I should mention that I masked off the jack o' lantern face to show that it can be used that way also. I also used the pumpkins from the Harvest Mice stamp set, the sentiment is also from this adorable set. 

I then used the grass and hill dies from the Slimline Nature Border Dies set to create a little grassy and hill area for the little cat and pumpkins. I used Distress Oxide Ink to add color to them. I used Mowed Lawn and Pine Needles. Next, I used the Stitched Ovals die to die cut an oval from the center of a blue-colored gingham pattern paper from the Gingham Jewel Tones patterned paper set. I then die cut the coordinating sized scalloped oval frame from the Fancy Frames Ovals die set.

I then added a bit of Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, and Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide Inks to the base of my card. I then adhered all of the pieces together to create the scene on for my card. 

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you. Thank you so much for stopping by. Hoping you each have a wonderful and blessed day.

Guest Designer Spotlight: North Pole Cards with Kelly Lunceford

Hi friends! It's Kelly Lunceford here today and I am thrilled to be guest designing using the latest Sunny Studio Stamps release! I'm sharing three holiday projects with you that I'm super excited about! First up is this fun North Pole scene using Santa and Mrs. Claus! The Winter Scenes stamp set is perfect to create charming scenes all winter long! I stamped it in black and then colored it with an assortment of alcohol markers in blues, reds, and greens to create a festive look!

I created the background by blending Distress Oxide inks in two shades of blue: Tumbled Glass and Faded Jeans. The addition of white paint splatter creates the illusion of snowflakes falling in the background. I die cut the Winter Scenes using the coordinating dies and added it to the background panel using foam squares for optimum dimension. I always love adding some coarse crystal glitter to many of my holiday designs which I did here on the trees, roof tops, and snow drifts!

Santa and Mrs. Claus are from the super sweet North Pole stamp set and they look so cute all decked out in their holiday finest! I added them to the bottom of the panel using additional foam squares to really make them pop! Mrs. Claus has two dots of Crystal Glaze over the top of her glasses for a realistic touch. I chose the sentiment that works perfectly with Santa's nice list and added it to the top of the snowy sky panel. A few sparkling clear sequins here and there finish off this little scene!

I had so much fun working on the first card, I decided that if I cut the Winter Scenes image in half, it would make two perfect tags! I colored it exactly the same way as the first card for ease, and then cut it straight in half and added them to two tags cut from Classic Gingham pattern paper.

I chose to use Santa on the first tag, all set with his list in hand and stamped the sentiment directly at the top using black ink. I love making all kinds of handmade tags for the season to dress up all of my packages and treats! If you're not a tag maker, you could use this same design and add it to a card base for a fun look.

Mrs. Claus is accented with a plate of Christmas cookies, which I'm sure taste delicious! ha ha! I love this sentiment that says "Spreading Christmas Cheer"...it will be perfect to package up all of the sweets and treats I love to make during the holidays!

My final project for today uses the playful elves from the North Pole stamp set. They were just screaming for something fun and whimsical, so I chose to use them in a way similar to something you might find on holiday wrapping paper! I stamped each one twice so I would have lots of options and colored them with alcohol markers. 

I love the play on words with this sentiment, which is just perfect for this design. I used my mini MISTI for ease in alignment and precision. I cut it out and added it to the pink Classic Gingham background using foam squares. From there I was able to add the elves in all different directions for a playful look!

I was thrilled to find that I could use the excess heads or feet that were trimmed off by adding them to a different portion of the card. I added in a few die cut gifts and the North Pole sign as filler! Each of the jingle bells on their hats got a dot of Crystal Glaze for some dimension and shine! Once I had them all arranged like I wanted, I added some White Nuvo drops here and there for a pop of added detail!

I had a lot of fun working on these three projects and I'm happy to add them to my growing stash of holiday projects! Working on Christmas is a year-long affair for me, so I'm always in the mood for Christmas! It will be here before we know it! Have a wondeful day and thanks for joining me today!
