Valentine's Day Cards with Isha and Lien

Hello everyone! Isha here today with a fun and cheerful card featuring the Passionate Penguins stamps and dies. I went with my favorite rainbow theme :)

Stamp the penguins from the Passionate Penguin stamp, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Stamp the balloons from the Heart Bouquet stamp, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies.

Adhere to the card. Stamp the sentiment from the Color My World stamp. Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Hi crafty friends! It's Lien here for the first time on the Sunny Studio blog with a cutesy valentine's day card using one of my favorite stamping techniques. 

For this card I'm using the Breakfast Puns stamp set for my focal point and my background. I absolutely adore these heart shaped waffles and I couldn't bring enough of them on my card. I first stamped my background onto white cardstock with Ballet Slipper ink from Concord & 9th, a subtle soft pink. I just put the waffle image, the strawberry image, and two heart images onto an acrylic block and got to building my pattern. 

The easiest way to do this is to start with your largest image and stamp it over and over again on your card panel first, then fill in the gaps with smaller and smaller stamps. If you really want to make sure you don't leave empty spots, try starting from the center of the card and working your way outwards. 

Once the background is done, I stamped the waffle and the strawberries a few times in black ink and colored them in with my Ohuhu alcohol markers. I used my misti for this and I did stamp everything again after coloring with Versafine Onyx Black ink so I could add clear gloss embossing powder to my outlines as well. I love a glossy black embossed outline and I definitely think it's worth the extra minute for your stamping!

I cut everything out with the coordinating dies and also die cut a tag from the Mini Mat and Tag 3 die set. I used some hot pink cardstock, light pink cardstock and I also cut the tag once more from vellum just to add a little extra something to peek out from behind the bold colored tag. 

I tied it all together with a piece of red embroidery floss and adhered everything on my card with some foam tape to add a little bit of dimension. Et voilà, a really fun and very pink Valentine's day card!

Valentine's Day Cards with Bobbi and Cathy

Hello Sunny friends. It’s Bobbi sharing some love in this little, red valentine featuring the Turtley Awesome Stamps and coordinating dies, the Scallop Heart Dies, and the Stitched Hearts 2 dies. This card measures 4-1/4″ wide X 5-1/2″ tall.

Using the heart dies, white cardstock and pattern papers from the All is Bright pattern paper pack, I cut hearts in various sizes as well as a front panel in red gingham and a 1/2″ wide pattern strip for an accent piece. I also stamped and cut out the turtles using the Turtley Awesome Stamps and coordinating dies. The turtles were colored using Copic Markers in YG67, YG07, YG05, YG03, YG00, RV55, and RV10.

I attached the hearts, layering the stitched white heart over the pretty pink scallop one. The turtles were attached using dimensional foam dots in front of the heart to make them stand out. I stamped the phrase and added faux stitches around the heart and the striped strip.

While the pattern paper I used is from a holiday-inspired pattern pack, I love that it can also be used any time of the year. The pattern paper looks like a colorfully striped ribbon with a little faux stitching on the edges. The red and pink ginghams are great for Valentines, too.

Inside, I kept it simple by adding one striped stitched heart. I like that it includes all the colors from the front. A heartfelt, personal message to my valentine around the heart will be the best part of the card.

Hey friends! Cathy here today and as we’re anxiously awaiting a new Sunny Studio release, I thought it would be fun to share a little love themed inspiration with the adorable Meow & Furever Stamps!

 

I chose a clean and simple design for this card and started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock for the card front using the frame portion of the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil Dies. I lightly inked the upper left and bottom right corners using Saltwater Taffy Distress ink and splattered a little watered down black acrylic paint in those areas with a paintbrush.

Next, I heat embossed a sentiment from the Critter Campout Stamps with black embossing powder approximately 3” from the top of the panel. I then heat embossed the “furbulous” sentiment with white embossing powder on black cardstock, cut around it and adhered it below.

 

For the focal point, I die-cut circles from white and light kraft cardstock using the Stitched Circle Small Dies, slightly overlapped them and adhered them to the card front. The Cherry Blossoms Stamps created a pretty accent. I stamped the petals using Spun Sugar and Saltwater Taffy Distress inks on white cardstock and the stamens using Scattered Straw and Frayed Burlap Distress inks. I also added colored pencil accents to the blossoms and then die-cut them using the coordinating dies.

 

To finish, I stamped the cat image on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored it with Copics and die-cut it using the coordinating dies.

 

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by today! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.
