Sunny Studio - Inside Tunnel Card

Hello everyone, I am on the Sunny Studio blog featuring the Stitched Rectangle dies with an inside tunnel card. This card went through a lot of changes and is very special to me because as soon as I started creating it, my daughter called and told me she got her first job as an assistant doctor as soon as she finishes her medicine next year. I feel so proud, thus this card is for her and Sunny Studio has perfect sentiments to express.

I started by stamping and embossing the florals onto watercolor paper from the Pink Peonies stamps. I colored them by sprinkling the nuvo shimmer powder shaded lilac. Die-cut using the coordinating dies.

Next, I die-cut the grey frame using two of the rectangle dies from the Stitched Rectangle dies.

Die-cut a cloud stencil by using the cloud from the Slimline Nature Border dies. Sponge onto the white layer for the card front and also on the inside panel.

For the inside cardbase I used the tutorial by Jennifer McGuire HERE. I stamped the word CONGRATS from the Everything's Rosy stamp and stamped it onto the banner from the Stitched Rectangle dies.

 

Die-cut the fence from the Picket Fence dies. Sponge a little mowed lawn distress oxide ink.

Stamp the sun from Balloon Rides stamp, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies.

Stamp the sentiment onto the front panel from the Inside Greetings - Birthday

Assemble everything together,

Stamp the balloon from the Floating By stamp, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Assemble everything together.

Sunny Studio - Side Step Fold Card

Hello Everyone! Today I have a fun fold card featuring the Picket Fence die at Sunny Studio Blog. I felt this kind of card was perfect to showcase this beautiful die and how it matches perfectly with the previously released products.

To start, I made the base of my side step card. Take a 5.5 by 8.5 inch white cardstock. Mark 2.5 inch from the left edge, along the length. Now on the 3 inch side, score at 6.25, 4.25, 3.25, 2.25 and 1.25 inches. Cut vertically along the marked line from the 6.25 score point to 1.25 score point. Fold the card onto the score lines and the card base is ready.

Sponge the sky on the left longer panel using pinks and yellow inks. Die-cut the fence three times with white cardstock, using the Picket Fence die. Die-cut the grass from the Gingham Jewel Tone pattern paper using the same die.

Emboss a white scrap using the Woodgrain embossing folder. Sponge vintage photo, fossilized amber and ground espresso distress inks. Cut using a pair of scissors to create the tree trunk.

Stamp images, color using copics and die-cut using coordinating dies.

Fairies, Butterfly, Flowers, Mushroom House: Garden Fairy Stamp and coordinating dies

Gnome, Mushroom: Home Sweet Gnome stamp and dies

Tree Leaves: Outback Critters stamp and dies

Mountains: Country Scenes Stamp and dies

Adhere all the dies and images as per the card photo and the card is ready. To finish, add some sparkles to the fairy wings, dots to the gnome hat and some clear sparkle pen to some flowers, fairy dress.

Sunny Studio - Shaped Sweet Wishes Card

Hello everyone!I am on Sunny Studio blog sharing a shaped card. I love creating shaped cards and this new Cupcake Die is the perfect size. You can adhere it to a standard US card size or create a shaped card perfect to go in the US size envelope.

 

To start, I die-cut two white cupcake base panels to create the cardbase. Score one of the pieces from top to make the shape card and adhere this to the back of the front panel . The score line will help the card to stand.

Die-cut all the parts of the cupcake. I decided to make rainbow color frosting as I recently made a rainbow layered cake for my daughters birthday :) Spray this with Imagine sparkle spray. I made the cake part chocolate by coloring it with brown copic markers. I then sponged some inks to create the wrapper and added some white dots to keep the whimsical theme going :)

I then colored the candle using copic markers. Adhere the flame and add some glossy accents. Color the sprinkles in chocolate, add glossy accent and adhere to the frosting.

Stamp the fairy from the Garden Fairy Stamp set, color, die-cut using the coordinating dies. Adhere to the cupcake as if the fairy is putting the candle onto the cake.

Crafty Meraki - Sending Happy Thoughts

Hello all! I am at Crafty Meraki blog with a mixed media floral card using the Crafty Meraki Magnificent Blooms stamp set. 

I started by stamping this big floral cluster onto vellum using versamark ink and embossed using WOW! metallic gold rich embossing powder. Fussy cut the image.

Now to start the background I took a mixed media layer and smooshed some tumbled glass and twisted citron distress inks to it. Now I used the Fancy Foliage stencil by Heffy doodle and applied Ranger distress crackle paint through it. Once dry this will have beautiful crackle effect. I then smooshed kitsch flamingo distress oxide ink to this piece according to my liking. Adhere this piece to a white cardbase.

Add color to the leaves in the floral cluster by coloring with copic marker from the back side of the image. Adhere to the card.

Now I stamped the sentiment onto the left over inked media paper using versafine black ink. Cut it into a stripe and adhere to the card.

To finish, adhere some pink sequins to it. Thanks for dropping by! Have a nice day!

Sunny Studio - Magical Wishes Shaker Card

Hello everyone! I am on Sunny Studio Blog featuring our adorable Garden Fairy stamp set and dies. As you know I really like creating flat shaker cards and I felt this stamp was perfect to make one. It's totally dreamy, magical and added fun of all the glitter as shaker, perfect to give a big smile to any girl including me...lol

 

 

So I started by stamping all the images using the Garden Fairy stamp set, colored using copic markers. Die-cut using the coordinating dies.

Next, I die-cut some cloud borders from the Slimline Nature Borders dies using white cardstock and vellum. 

Sponge a white panel using shaded lilac and Kitsch flamingo distress oxide inks, flick water and dab using a kitchen towel. Die-cut using the Fancy Frames Rectangle dies to create a frame. Adhere both the parts of the frame from behind to have a broad frame. Next adhere the white clouds to the top and bottom part of the frame, then goes the vellum cloud border. Now adhere a piece of acetate behind the frame. Add double sided tape to cover all the sides of the frame.

 

Adhere the center of the background piece to the white cardbase. Add some WOW! sparkle glitters Your Carriage Awaits and Crystal. Now remove the lining of the score tape of the frame and adhere this to the cardbase.

Adhere all the images using glue and 3d foam for various dimension. To finish, add spectrum noir clear sparkle pen to the fairies, butterfly and flowers.

Have a nice day!

Crafty Meraki - You Are Incredible

Hello everyone, I am on Crafty Meraki blog sharing a floral card using the fun spring color palette. 

I started by stamping the florals from the Sweet Friendship stamp set using versamark ink. Emboss using WOW! metallic gold rich embossing powder. Sponge picked raspberry distress ink towards the center.

Stamp the leaves from the One of a Kind stamp set using versamark, emboss using the gold embossing powder. Sponge lucky clover distress ink. Fussy cut all the images. 

Now to create the background, take a piece of yupo paper. Add green alcohol ink and blending solution. Add the color to your liking and let this piece dry. 

Emboss this piece using the Sunny Studio Frilly Frames Herringbone die (to do this on the big shot die-cutting machine the sandwich is tab 1, clear plate, die facing up, yupo paper color side down, tan embossing mat, clear plate). Take a fine sandpaper and gently scrub the emboss part, it turns white and looks pretty in real life.

 

Adhere the cluster, stamp sentiment from the You Are Incredible stamp set. Assemble the card as per the photo.

Have a nice day!
