Surfing Santa Cards and Video Tutorial with Franci and Candice

Hi there and Merry Merry Christmas! I hope you're having a lovely day celebrating the Holidays and I wish you all the joy and happiness for 2021! It's Franci here with you and I'm so very happy to celebrate with you today, with a fun interactive card that features the Surfing Santa mini set.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Surfing Santa Catch A Wave Dies Tropical Themed Christmas Card by Franci Vignoli

Fun fact: for today's project I was actually inspired by the TV news! Yes, cause every year, the day after Christmas as I watch the news with my family I always see how Christmas was celebrated in the world and all our friends from Australia are always at the beach, surfing in Santa costumes! Lol.

So I created this super fun interactive card (but also simple to make, I promise!) and I can't stop playing with my little Santa who can actually surf and move into the ocean waves.

To create this card I used the Surfing Santa set, it's coordinated dies, the Catch a Wave Dies and some basic shape dies.

Please take a look at how I created my card below and enjoy!

Hello and Merry Christmas my crafty friends! Candice here! I hope you are enjoying your day with family! I have one last tropical Christmas card to share with you today!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Surfing Santa Tropical Scenes Slimline Dies Tropical Themed Christmas Card by Candice Fisher

I used these Sunny Studio products for my card:

I began my slimline with an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base. For the background, I repeatedly stamped the palm tree silhouette with Orange Cream Altenew ink on orange cardstock and trimmed with the scalloped border die. I then heat embossed the sentiment in white on the bottom panel.

Next, I stamped all my tropical images from the sets listed above, colored them with Copic markers and used the matching dies to cut out. I lightly inked a sunset with dried marigold directly onto the card base and layered the images onto blue cardstocks, some cut from the wave die. I finished with some blue snowflakes, clear domes and Nuvo drops!

Thank you for stopping by today and enjoy the rest of your holiday!

Classy Christmas Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a vintage style Christmas card using Classy Christmas.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Classy Christmas Season's Greetings Scalloped Tag Dies Christmas Cards by Vanessa Menhorn

For this card, I first inked the edges of a rustic cream card base with cream ink and applied ink droplets. Then I die-cut two tags from the package box of my favorite tea. I love the paper they use for the package and didn't want to throw it away. Now I stamped the images onto another piece of the paper and colored them with colored pencils. After adding highlights with a white gel pen, I die-cut the elements with the matching dies and arranged them onto the tags. 

Stamps and dies used today:
Classy Christmas stamps dies (images)
Season's Greetings stamps + dies (sentiment)
Scalloped Tag Square Dies (tags)

I tied-on rustic twine to the tags and adhered them with foam tape. Then I stamped the "greetings" with red ink, added shadows with the colored pencils and highlights with the white gel pen, die-cut the word and adhered it. Finally, I stamped "season's" onto the card.

I am wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful Christmas! Thank you for stopping by!

Hello everyone, Anja here today and since it is Christmas Eve, I have the matching card for you, showcasing the beautiful Classy Christmas Stamps.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Classy Christmas Christmas Card by Anja Bytyqi

I started off with a white A2 card base and adhered a navy blue cardstock panel which is slightly smaller. Next, I die cut a thin white frame to use as a decorative design element for my cluster of stamped images.

The images were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic markers. For the tree branch sprigs I used three tones of green dye inks. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out and arranged the images at the bottom of the card. Finally, I stamped the sentiment from the Merry Mice set in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!
