Making an Autumn Stamp Work for Christmas

Hey guys! I hope your week is off to a great start! Today, I’m sharing a card I made as a Guest Designer for Sunny Studio Stamps.

This stamp is actually from the Autumn Garland Stamps, but I wanted to show you how it could also be used for a Winter card!!

Do you ever have those days where you don’t really feel like crafting, but you want to do something in your craftroom? That’s what happened to me! I just decided to stamp out this beautiful garland, put on a show, and use my Copics to color it in! I added some highlights and dots with a white Gelly Roll pen.

I die cut the image out using the Autumn Garland Dies. Then, I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 3.5”x4.75”. I added a sentiment from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps directly onto my white cardstock. The background paper is from the Joyful Holiday Paper. I trimmed this paper down to 4”x5.25” and glued it directly to my card base. I used 3D foam tape to adhere my white cardstock to my patterned paper. Then, I used 3D foam squares to adhere my garland to the white cardstock.

I added a few sequins on the left to help balance out the entire card. Here’s another photo of the finished card!

Heffy Doodle and Sunny Studio Stamps Collaboration Blog Hop

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Sunny Studio Stamps Collaboration Blog Hop!
Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!

I couldn’t choose just 1 card, so I decided to make 2!

Whenever I’m starting a card, I like to lay my stamps out on my card base to get an idea of what the card will look like. After doing that, I got blended my background using Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick, and Dusty Concord Distress Oxides.

The next step is stamping and coloring! I stamped images from the Heffy Doodle Chimply the Best, Wingman, Hootiful, and Beary Big Heart stamp sets. From Sunny Studio Stamps, I stamped images from the Silly Sloths stamp set.

For my sentiments, I used the word bubbles from the Whatcha Sayin’ stamp set. I also used a sentiment from the Silly Sloth stamp set.

Once I had all of my elements ready, I used 3D foam squares and strips to adhere everything to my background.

For my other card, I used Chimply the Best and Silly Sloths again. I stamped the images and colored them with Copic markers.

For my background and border, I used the UnbeLEAFable Stencil and the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I wanted my border to stick out farther than regular 3D foam adhesive, so I used the Deep Foam Tape.

I created leaves with the Amazonian Leaves Dies and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide. Finally, I started adhering everything to my card front with glue and 3D foam squares and strips.

To be entered to win the giveaway, all you need to do is comment at each stop along the Blog Hop!
Sunny Studio Stamps will be giving away $35 and Heffy Doodle will be giving away £25 to their respective stores! Be sure to comment before 11:59 PM on March 3rd to be entered to win!

Each company will post their random winner on March 4th at 10AM EST! Make sure to check the Heffy Doodle Blog and Sunny Studio Stamps Blog to see if you’re a winner!

Retail Therapy – City Streets

Hello crafty friends! I hope everyone is staying happy and healthy!

I made this card before this terrible Coronavirus epidemic. Now, I’m posting it because we all need a little reminder of what’s to come after this is all over! (Or, if you’re like me, you are already treating yourself to a little online retail therapy!!)

To make this card, I started with creating my own street using a ruler and my Copic markers. I used T7, T6, T5, and T4 to create the street.

I used Antique Linen distress ink and this cloud stencil to create a neutral sky.

I stamped my images from the Sunny Studio City Streets stamp set and colored them in with my Copic markers. To keep a certain color palette, I used the same markers throughout all the stamped images.
