Spring Garden Die Focused Card with Nicky

Hello everyone this is Nicky back with you on the Sunny Studio blog and I'm sharing a new card featuring the Spring Garden Dies.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Spring Garden Die Focused Birthday Card by Nicky Meeks (featuring Fancy Frame Dies)

To kick things off I prepped an A2 panel of patterned cardstock from the Spring Fever 6 x 6 Cardstock collection and I glued it to an A2 panel for strength and then to the card base. Over this I layered two frames die cut using the Fancy Frames Rectangle Dies and cut from sturdy white cardstock. These were applied with foam tape on the reverse to create some dimension.

I sized a white panel of cardstock to fit within the smaller frame and I softly ink blended a little sky and then recessed it within the frame and glued directly.

I used the Spring Garden Dies and different coloured cardstock from my stash that worked with the patterned panel and I die cut all of the little elements I was going to need for my envisaged scene and I set about glueing all the little elements together and then adhering everything to the background either with foam tape or directly with glue.

The simple finishing touches were to stamp the sentiment from Little Birdie on a strip which was applied with foam tape and to highlight a few points with a white gel pen and voila a birthday card for an avid gardener was created.

Many thanks for stopping by, I'll be back next Friday with something brand new to share. Happy crafting!

Beautiful Bluebells Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm very happy to be back on the blog with this elegant and pretty shaker card showcasing the Beautiful Bluebells that I stamped using pinks and reds instead of the traditional blues and purples.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Beautiful Bluebells Card by Marine Simon (featuring Frilly Frame Dies, Stitched Oval Dies, Scalloped Oval Mat Dies, Inside Greetings)

I started off by creating my shaker background, and first cut a Frilly Frame Lattice panel out of white woodgrain cardstock. I also cut a 4,75 x 3,5 inches acetate panel that I attached at the back of my lattice panel using double sided tape, and added foam strips directly on the four edges of the acetate panel. I poured a bunch of 3mm clear sequins on the acetate, and then attached a 5,5 x 4,25 inches light pink panel to the foam strips to close my shaker. And I attached my panel to a matching card base.

For my greeting, I first cut a Scalloped Oval Mat 1 red panel that I stuck in the middle of my Frilly Frame Lattice panel using 2mm foam squares. Next I gold heat embossed my sentiment from Inside Greetings Congrats on a Stitched Oval 2 white panel that I attached on top of the red scalloped oval panel using 1mm foam squares.

Next I stamped a bunch of Beautiful Bluebells on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Altenew crisp dye inks: frosty pink + coral berry + ruby red + warm sunshine for the flowers, and frayed leaf + forest glades. I used the matching dies to cut them all, and then attached everything above and below the greeting using foam squares and liquid glue. I finished my card by adding clear droplets here and there.

And that's it! I love that depending on the greeting, you can turn this card into totally different things: wedding, mother's day, spring, etc. I hope you like it. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time.

Tree Branch Die Focused Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and what better way to create a ‘love themed’ card than to add two adorable birds (Love Birds) to a branch (Tree Branch die) and add a bunch of beautiful flowers! I absolutely love this branch die because it has a lovely shape and is long enough to stretch across your card design. I discovered that it is a perfect fit for the Wonky Windows Dies. You get so much more use out of your stash when you mix and match old and new products!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Tree Branch Die Focused Card by Tina Henkens (featuring Love Birds, Wonky Window Dies, Spring Garden Dies)

The branch die inspired me to choose for a mini slimline card today. I created a simple white card base and used a die from my stash to cut the beautiful blue heart paper from Flirty Flowers. Next, I cut out the trio of Wonky Windows twice, once from the blue paper and once from a white sheet of card stock that I had embossed with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.

After gluing the heart design paper to my card base, I popped in the three wood grain windows which fitted like puzzle pieces. I stamped two adorable birdies from the Love Birds set and colored them with my Copics in bright blues and corals. This is such a fun color combo for Spring.

The big branch (Tree Branch die) was also cut from the wood grain paper to give that realistic texture. I needed lots of leaves from the same die set and also a bunch of flowers from the Spring Garden dies. All of them were colored with the same alcohol markers as the birds.

The sentiment was selected from the Love Birds set and stamped onto a small white strip with a red ink from my stash. The branch was glued across the trio of wonky windows as a base for the whole design. I mounted the birds and some flowers with foam tape. After adhering the sentiment strip I sprinkled a few coral hearts from the Red Heart Mix Drops.

Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Puddle Jumpers Card with Isha

Hello everyone! Isha here on the blog with a fun and happy card featuring the Puddle Jumpers stamp and coordinating dies. This stamp set gives a happy feel, so I decided to go with rainbow colors.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Puddle Jumpers Spring Themed Card by Isha Gupta (featuring Stitched Rectangle Dies, Stitched Circle Dies)

I started by cutting strips in rainbow colors using the Gingham Pastels paper pad. Adhere the stripes to a white panel. Die-cut this panel using the Stitched Rectangle die. Adhere the negative piece to a white cardbase. Adhere the center rectangle to the card using 3d foam.

Now, die-cut a circle using the Stitched Circle Large die. Sponge salty ocean distress ink towards the center. Stamp the images from the Puddle Jumpers stamp set, color using copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Adhere to the circle and then using 3d foam adhere the circle to the card. Stamp the sentiments, cut in stripes and adhere to the card. Hope you got inspired. 

Thank you for dropping by and have a nice day!

Spring Garden Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here to kick off the month of April with a Spring Garden mini slimline card. April showers bring May flowers but we also need some sunshine to make those flowers grow! I made this card to send a little sunshine and flowers to help brighten someone's day. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Spring Garden Die Focused Card by Leanne West (featuring Sunny Sentiments, Stitched Scalloped Dies)

I die cut all the pieces to build this Spring Garden scene from white card stock.  I then used Copic markers to simply color each piece before assembling. Here are the colors I used: E13, E15, N4, BG11, BG13, RV52, RV55, RV10, Y15, YR12, YR14, YG63, YG11, E47

The background for this card is a simple ink blend of pale yellow and green inks: Catherine Pooler Whipped Honey & Matcha. I then stamped the sentiment with CP S'mores ink.  The "sending sunshine" stamps are from Sunny Sentiments.

To finish off this mini slimline design, I added some clear sparkling sequins and a decorative die cut border. I used a Stitched Scalloped border die to create this piece.
