Fireplace Shaped Dies Elegant Christmas Card with Vanessa

Hello everybody! Vanessa here today with a cozy card using the Fireplace Shaped DiesThese dies are genius! I thought a lot about how I wanted my fireplace to look like and decided to go with a clean & elegant version:

First, I die-cut my card base from white cardstock and assembled back and front. Then I die-cut the rest of the fire place and adhered everything. I die-cut the stockings from patterned paper, slid them onto black twine and tied the twine to the card.

Now I die-cut the pot (the bowl from Blissfull Baking) and the tree (from Gleeful Reindeer), colored them with Copics and adhered them.

Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Christmas Home onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it to the mantel.

I wish we had a fireplace in our home! But unfortunately it is not very common any more in Germany. Now I can at least create as many as I want to!

Playful Polar Bears Interactive Baking Bears Card with Franci

Hi everyone! Franci here with you today with a special Christmas card! Can you believe Christmas will be here in 40 days?! I'm super excited since winter is my favorite time of the year and I love Christmas time. So I created a special festive card today and I'm so happy about how it turned out. Any Christmas cookies lovers here?! 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Playful Polar Bears Interactive Baking Bears Card by Franci Vignoli

I decided to combine the Playful Polar Bears stamp set with the Blissful Baking stamp set because they coordinated so perfectly together! First I die cut the scalloped box pop up card base using a Lawn Fawn die, and created some little snowy hills for all the different "layers" inside the box, which I glued all together. 

Then I stamped all my images, colored them with Copics and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. It takes quite a lot of time to do. So you have to save this card for a very special person ;) Well, I'm joking. There's nothing better than some late night coloring with your favorite stamps to relax and feel happy!

Here's a little detail shot. I drew and colored some cookie dough inside the bowl with Copics and I also added some chocolate chips with a black Copic friendly marker to add some additional interest. It's fun, isn't it?! I added as many details as I could to really give a nice happy "Christmas baking" feel to the scene and the little bear with the kitchen glove and the biscuit tray is my fave!

I also added a little platter with a cup of chocolate and a little pastry to another bear. I love the little Christmas stocking full of cookies! And the last bear is writing the "Have a sweet Christmas" sentiment with his bag of frosting! Ha. This card just makes me giggle so much!! 
Hope you like it and thank you so so much for stopping by!

Christmas Chapel Ombre Background Christmas Card with Nancy

Hey there Sunny fans, Nancy here today with a look at the beautiful Christmas Chapel stamp and coordinating dies. I love the quaint look and feel of this set - perfect for some clean and simple Christmas cards. 

Sunny Studio Stamps: Christmas Chapel Ombre Background Christmas Card by Nancy Damiano

The base of the card was given a pop of color with four ombre shades of blue. This is a simple way to give your cards a bold background that's easy to create. Next a smaller rectangle was cut to center the chapel scene. I stamped the tree and lamp post images from the Christmas Home stamp set just to give the scene a little bit of interest. All of the images were watercolored using Zig Clean Color markers.

A bit of foam tape just under the chapel gives the scene some dimension. A sprinkle of tiny sequins mimics snow and three enamel dots in the far right corner finish off this charming Christmas card.

Be sure to pick up the Christmas Chapel stamp and coordinating dies and create beautiful holiday scenes!

Silver Bells Dangling Bells Christmas Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I'll be using the Silver Bells dies along with a few other stamp sets from last year to create a Christmas card.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Silver Bells Dangling Bells Christmas Card by Eloise Blue

To start off I used the Silver Bells dies to cut some bells from silver and gold cardstock and adhered the opposite ring and star on top of each of them. Then I used the Holiday Style stamp set to stamp two branches with green inks. I die cut those out also with the coordinating dies. For my background, I used some Peacock Feathers and Tumbled Glass Distress Ink and ink blended them onto a piece of white cardstock. I then adhered down my branches and then the silver bells over top, using flat and dimensional adhesive.

For my sentiment, I used the banner from Little Angels and the sentiment from Holiday Style. I stamped the banner with black ink first, then stamped most of the sentiment in black too, but finished it off with stamping Joy in red. I then used the Little Angels coordinating dies to die cut out the banner and adhered it to my panel. I poked holes through the bells at the top, threaded through some red twine and tied each on with a bow. To finish up the card, I adhered my panel onto some fun foam, then adhered it onto a card base that I adhered some red plaid paper on top of.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I'll catch you all next time.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Winter Christmas Card with Kay Miller

Hi there! Kay Miller here, and I am super happy to be guesting again with Sunny Studio Stamps! Their cute designs always bring a smile to my face!

Sunny Studio Stamps: Playful Polar Bears Winter Themed Christmas Card by Kay Miller

For my card here, I used the Playful Polar Bears stamp set and coordinating dies. The little trees in the background are from the Christmas Home stamp set. For my background I used Distress Ink on Bristol Board. I blended Peacock Feathers over the whole panel and added Mermaid Lagoon across the top. I sprinkled that with water and then some white ink.  I cut two snowy hills for my scene, and glued those flat to my blended panel. All of the images were colored with Copic markers.

I love the way the coordinating dies cut little slits along their hands and arms so you can tuck the items underneath them! So fun! I added the trees with liquid adhesive and tucked them behind the snowy hills, then adhered the bears and gift box with foam tape. The sentiment is from Playful Polar Bears stamp set and Christmas Home stamp set. I embossed it with white embossing powder and adhered them with foam tape as well.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Be sure to check out all of the fun stamps and dies at Sunny Studio Stamps!

Snow & Frosty Flurries Winter Background Christmas Card with Lexa

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a Christmas card inspiration highlighting the brand new background stamps from Sunny Studio, Frosty Flurries and Snow Flurries. And for this card, I'll be combine those two to create my background.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Snow & Frosty Flurries Winter Background Christmas Card by Lexa Levana

First of all, I embossed the sentiment from Festive Greetings Stamp with silver embossing powder and heat gun. Then I embossed both Frosty Flurries and Snow Flurries, I don't even mind if they are overlapping each other. Then I blended Peacock Feather and Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink over the card. The coolest thing about this technique is when you blend those inks on the paper, the embossed stamps will resist. The glossy effect is super cool!

As for my scene, I use the Christmas Chapel and some ornaments from Christmas Home to complete the whole scene. Isn't that snowman the cutest? I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolored them with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring, I die cut them all with the coordinating dies.

Thank you so much for visiting today. I hope you all have an amazing day!
