Hi everyone,

I'm already looking forward to spring! So I created a scene with the Paris Afternoon Stamps. Sweet "Madame Poodle" is dreaming of a picnic at the park.

First, I used the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil stitched rectangle die to cut out a full-size A2 mat from the Subtle Grey Tones sunburst paper. I adhered it to a top folding landscape card base.

For my pastel background, I did some ink blending with Distress Oxides (Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac, Milled Lavender and Spun Sugar) onto a piece of Bristol cardstock. I stamped the arch image from the Charming City set in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with Salvaged Patina Distress Embossing Glaze. 

On another Bristol cardstock strip, I blended together Bundled Sage and Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide Ink for the grass. At the top I used the the grass border die included in the Comic Strip Everyday Dies set. I die cut both ink blended pieces with the largest of the Stitched Semi-Circle Dies and layered the grass border over the background.

Next, I stamped the images (the trees are from Charming City and Critters on the Go) in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. The word 'bonjour' was stamped in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed with silver embossing powder. Since there isn't a matching die, I carefully fussy cut it with scissors.

Finally, I assembled my scene by adhering the images and popping up the sentiment and poodle with foam tape.

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

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Critters on the Go

Hello everyone,

today I'm back with a fun card featuring the Critters on the Go Stamps. I especially like the dogs on their skateboards!

I started off with an A2 landscape card base and created a scene using the Slimline Nature Border Dies which I cut from several cardstocks. I also added stitched cloud shapes to the light blue sky with the Fluffy Clouds Dies.

Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out.

For my greeting, I cut the Hello Word Die from shiny holographic cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the Happy Hamsters set with turquoise pigment ink. I adhered the die cuts and images with liquid glue and finished off the card with three red hearts placed around the sentiment.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wheelie great day!

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Quilted Hearts Die

Hi everyone,

Valentine's Day is just around the corner! So I created a love themed card highlighting the Quilted Hearts Portrait Die.

First, I made a regular A2 card base from white cardstock. I did some ink blending on another white cardstock panel using Distress Oxide Inks (Picked Raspberry, Kitsch Flamingo, Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar andTattered Rose). For some texture, I randomly splattered on water droplets and lifted off the color with a paper towel. I let it dry before running it through my diecutting machine with the Quilted Hearts Portrait Die.

Next, I stamped two birds and the tree branch from the Little Birdie set in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images which I then adhered with foam tape.

The big scripty sentiment from the Lovey Dovey set was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I heat embossed it with WOW! Metallic Brass Sparkle Embossing Glitter. I really like that there are coordinating dies to cut out the sentiments for a finished look. Finally, I popped up with foam tape as well.

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

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Passionate Penguins

Hello everyone,

today I'm featuring the adorable Passionate Penguins Stamps – they are definitely one of my favorites! I just love their sweet little faces! I created a love themed CAS card in berry pink tones.

I started off with a square card base measuring 4.25" x 4.25". Next, I die cut two of the Stitched Heart 2 Dies from pink cardstocks and layered them on top of each other.

The penguins and tea cup were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. It's so cute how they are sitting inside the cup.

I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink onto a black cardstock strip and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Finally, I adhered the images and sentiment strip with foam tape.

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

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Bursting Hearts Die

Hi everyone,

I'm back with another love themed card using the Bursting Hearts Die. There's so much you can do with this wonderful A2 sized backdrop. I decided to create a monochromatic card with a cute Passionate Penguins couple in the center.

First, I die cut the backdrop from lavender and purple cardstock. I adhered the lavender panel to a white card base using liquid glue. Next, I inlaid some of the purple heart die-cuts into two of the circular rows. and covered the center with a white stitched circle.

I stamped the image in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the penguins with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating die to cut out the image. I paper pieced the envelope by stamping the image again onto a piece of patterned paper from the Rainbow Bright Paper pack. I fussy cut it with scissors and adhered it over the first image.

The sentiment from the Critters on the Go set was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a small black cardstock strip. I heat embossed it with white embossing powder and adhered it to the envelope. Finally, I popped up the image with foam tape.

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

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Heart Shaped Dies

Hello everyone,

today I'm sharing a spring themed card where I used the versatile heart shaped dies from the latest release. I love that the Scalloped Heart Dies and Stitched Heart 2 Dies can be layered together.

First, I covered the card base with one of the Flirty Flowers Papers. I die cut the largest scalloped heart from coral cardstock and the stitched heart from white cardstock. To create the background for my scene, I did some masking and ink blending with Distress Oxide Inks (Tumbled Glass, Mowed Lawn, Shabby Shutters). I layered the hearts on top of each other and adhered them to the center of the card.

Next, I stamped the sweet images from the Bunnyville set in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. The sentiment from the Paris Afternoon set was stamped in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed with Salvaged Patina Distress Embossing Glaze. I fussy cut it out with scissors.

Finally, I adhered the images and sentiment with foam tape. The cute bunny sitting on the carrot just makes me smile.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have an awesome day!

Sunny Studio Stamps • Spring Release • Lovey Dovey

Hi everyone,

the new Spring Release went live last Friday and it is jam-packed with totally adorable stamps and fabulous dies!

For my first card I used the Lovey Dovey set which comes with beautiful large love-themed sentiments. I picked the precious 'I love you to the moon and back' one and created a night scene around it.

First, I started off with the background and trimmed down a piece of white cardstock to a regular A2 size. I used the smallest of the Tim Holtz Moon Masks and created a radiant blend around the circle using Distress Oxide Inks (Salvaged Patina, Prize Ribbon, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot). I also added the moon texture with the stencil and a light touch of Pumice Stone ink. I let everything dry completely before stamping the sentiment inside the moon with VersaMark Ink. To create a shiny, translucent look I used Salvaged Patina Distress Embossing Glaze to heat emboss the sentiment.

Next, I die cut the Cityscape Border from black cardstock to mimic house silhouettes in the dark of the night. I also hand cut some yellow paper to go behind it for the tiny enlightened windows. For the ground I trimmed down a dark grey cardstock strip and adhered it as well as the cityscape to my ink blended background.

I fell in love with the new Passionate Penguins Stamps the first time I saw them – they are sooo cute! Of course I had to use them on my card ;-) I stamped the penguins in the car with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and did some Copic coloring. The image was die cut with the coordinating die and popped up using foam tape. Finally, I die cut three little hearts from pink cardstock and covered them with Glossy Accents.

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