29.11.2019

Hi peeps,

today is the final day of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags event and the spotlight is on Hello Bluebird.

I had so much fun creating these tags with the adorable North Pole Littles and the Stitched Tag Builder Die.


I also used the Echo Park "A Perfect Winter" 6x6 paper pad - love the color combo and patterns! The images were colored with Copics and cut out with the coordinating dies.

Hello Bluebird is having a fabulous Black Friday Salesave 25% on all in-stock products with the code THANKFUL

Sunny Studio Stamps • Hedgey Holidays

28.11.2019

Hello everyone,

today I'm sharing a special card with you showcasing the exclusive Sunny Studio Stamps Hedgey Holidays mini stamp set which is part of the ongoing Black Friday promo (find all details in the graphic below).


I combined this cutie with one of the over-sized Season's Greetings sentiments. I did a snowy background using the Emboss Resist technique. Therefore, I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I applied Distress Oxide Inks (Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch and a tiny bit of Black Soot) over the heat embossed sentiment creating a blue gradient. For the snow, I splattered on lots of white paint with a brush.

Next, I stamped the images in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder. I did some coloring with Altenew watercolors and cut out the images with the coordinating dies. I popped up the hedgehog with foam tape and adhered Peppermint Confetti clay embellishments to finish off my card.



Thank you so much for stopping by! And happy shopping ;-)

Sunny Studio Stamps • Winter Release • Christmas Garland Frame

21.11.2019

Hi everyone,

today's card was made using die-cuts only. I combined the Christmas Garland Frame Die with the deers and birds from the Rustic Winter Dies set to create a winter scene.

First, I started with an A2 Bristol cardstock panel and blended on Distress Oxide Inks (Victorian Velvet, Worn Lipstick and Tattered Rose from the top; Tumbled Glass from the bottom). I let it dry completely and added random white paint splatters with a brush.

Next, I die cut the intricate tree bough frame from emerald cardstock using an additional metal shim in my die-cutting machine. I also die cut the deers and birds from dark brown and red carstock. I stacked the sentiments from the Merry Mice set and stamped them in VersaMark Ink onto a piece of vellum. Then I did some heat embossing with red embossing powder. To create a little banner, I used the Fishtail Banner Dies.


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

Sunny Studio Stamps • Winter Release • Merry Mice

14.11.2019

Hello everyone,

today's card features the adorable Sunny Studio Stamps Merry Mice Stamps. I combined them with the beautiful Layered Snowflake Frame Die to create a winter scene.

First, I did an ink blended background with Distress Oxide Inks. I sprinkled on water droplets to lift the color in some spots. For the falling snow, I added white paint splatters with a brush.

I die cut the larger snowflake frame from a 5"×5" white cardstock panel. Due to the intricate details, I used a metal shim while running it through my die-cutting machine. I created a snow hill by die cutting a piece of white pearlescent paper and popped up the snowflake frame with foam tape.

Next, I stamped the mice and accessories in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and did some coloring with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images and adhered them with liquid glue.

For the sentiment, I white heat embossed the small word 'HELLO' (from the Fabulous Flamingos set) on a little strip of lavender cardstock. I die cut the word 'Winter' (which is also included in the Layered Snowflake Frame Die set) from purple glitter cardstock.

I assembled my card and added Blue & White Clay Snowflake Confetti as embellishments.


Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you're having a fabulous day!

Sunny Studio Stamps • Winter Release • Scenic Route

07.11.2019

Hello everyone,

today I'm showcasing the Sunny Studio Stamps Scenic Route Stamps. The row of houses is my favorite stamp in this set and I created a simple monochromatic card.

I stamped the image and the sentiment from the Foxy Christmas set in VersaMark Ink onto a 4 1/8" x 7" piece of aquamarine cardstock. I heat embossed both with white embossing powder.

For a change, I did some coloring with Prismacolor pencils. I added a tiny pink die-cut heart as a little pop of color.


Thank you so much for stopping by! Until next time!

DT Stempelgarten Challenge November

05.11.2019

Hi peeps,

it's time for a new Stempelgarten Challenge! This month's theme is Favorite Stamp.


http://stempelgartenchallenge.blogspot.ch/


Of course I have more than one favorite stamp ;-) but this "Yeti or Not" cutie from the latest Lawn Fawn Fall/Winter release has stolen my heart!

For the wintry background, I did some watercoloring with Distress Oxide Inks (Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers and Shaded Lilac). I also added water droplets and ink splatters with a paint brush. I die cut the panel with the largest of the My Favorite Things "A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 2" Die-namics.

Next, I colored the images with Copics and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I created the snowy hills with the Mama Elephant "Landscape Trio" dies by layering two white cardstock die-cuts on top of each other. The sentiment was white heat embossed onto black cardstock which I die cut with a MFT "Slanted Sentiment Strip" die. Finally, I adhered the images and sentiment strip with foam tape.

You will have time until November 30th, 2019 to join the Stempelgarten Challenge and this is the prize you could win:


A craft package from the Stempelgarten Online Shop with a value of CHF 20.–.
