Sunny Studio Stamps - Right as Rain

Sunny Studio Stamps | Valentine Truckload

Hello! Today, I am sharing a Valentine’s Day card featuring the delightful Sunny Studio Stamps Truckloads of Love stamp set with coordinating dies. You can see a similar fall-themed card that I created with the set HERE.

- To begin, dry-emboss an A2-size panel of Dahlia cardstock with the Burlap embossing folder. Add to card base. You can read more about dry-embossed card backgrounds HERE.
- Stamp Truckloads of Love pickup, hearts (twice), and two of the critters with Versafine on Arches Cold Press watercolor paper and heat set. Color the images with watercoloring mediums of choice (I used Tombow markers). Once dry, cut the images with the dies in the coordinating set. (Check out my “Resources for Watercoloring Stamped Images” HERE.)
- Cut scallop mat from white cardstock with the Mini Mat and Tag 3 set.
- Stamp sentiment on white cardstock and add Distress Oxide Inks to sky and road (using vellum to mask while applying the inks). I created the sentiment on my computer.
- Trim inked sentiment panel to fit inside the Mini Mat and Tag 3 scallop mat. Add inked panel to mat.
- Adhere truck, hearts, and critters. Add assembly to card base.

Sunny Studio Stamps | Snowman Kisses

Hello! Today I am sharing a winter-themed card featuring the Sunny Studio Stamps Snowman Kisses stamp set, with coordinating die set, brought to life with watercoloring. I used the Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again Polaroid-style frame for my scene. In this post, I discussed the use of frames and mats in cardmaking.

Create A2-size card base and cover with patterned paper in the Gingham and Linen pack. I chose my colors for the scarves and hats of the snowmen based on the colors I used from the patterned paper pack. It would be fun to choose colors for the snowmen’s accessories based on a favorite sports team of the recipient.
Stamp the Snowman Kisses snowmen images with Versafine on Arches Cold Press watercolor paper and heat set it. Color the images with watercoloring mediums of choice. I used Zig May Green (47), Zig Turquoise Green (42), Zig Orange (70), and Tombow Glacier Blue (491) markers. Once dry, cut the images with the dies in the coordinating set. (Check out my “Resources for Watercoloring Stamped Images” HERE.)
From white cardstock, cut the snowbank with a die in the Slimline – Nature Borders set.
Add snowbank behind the frame and back with patterned paper from the Gingham and Linen pack.
Add sentiment to the bottom of the Polaroid frame cut from white glitter foam using dies in the Journal Letter set.
Add frame assembly to card base. Add snowmen with foam adhesive. Embellish with snowflakes cut with the Lawn Fawn Mini Snowflakes set from white glitter foam.

Sunny Studio Stamps | Truckload of Pumpkins

Hello! Today I am sharing a fall-themed card featuring the delightful Sunny Studio Stamps Truckloads of Love stamp set, with coordinating dies. Envisioning a visit to the pumpkin patch, I created a pumpkin-picking scene with the set’s pickup truck, pumpkins, and two of the cute critters.

To begin, dry-emboss an A2-size panel of rust cardstock (I used SU Cajun Craze) with the Buffalo Plaid embossing folder. Add to card base. You can read more about dry-embossed card backgrounds HERE.
Stamp Truckloads of Love pickup, pumpkins (twice), and two of the critters with Versafine on Arches Cold Press watercolor paper and heat set. Color the images with watercoloring mediums of choice (I used mini Distress Inks). Once dry, cut the images with the dies in the coordinating set. (Check out my “Resources for Watercoloring Stamped Images” HERE.)
Cut scallop mat from white cardstock with the Mini Mat and Tag 3 set.
Stamp sentiment on white cardstock and add Distress Oxide Inks to sky and road (using vellum to mask while applying the inks). I created the sentiment on my computer as I wanted to specifically reference a pumpkin field.
Trim inked sentiment panel to fit inside the Mini Mat and Tag 3 scallop mat. Add inked panel to mat.
Adhere truck, pumpkins, and critters. Add assembly to card base.

Sunny Studio Stamps | Pick of the Patch

Hello! I have crafted a picturesque fall scene with die-cut pumpkins using supplies from Sunny Studio Stamps. For more information on scene building, you can check out this post, when I discuss how to start a scene building collection with Sunny Studio Stamps products.

The background, measuring 4 1/4″ square, boasts subtle texture thanks to dry embossing with the Buffalo Plaid folder. The background was added to a 4 1/2″ square card base, covered with white canvas cardstock.

I colored Soft Finish cardstock with a variety of inks from which to cut the pumpkins, sun, and grass. The Pumpkin Patch set includes dies with which to cut layered pumpkins and jack o’lantern faces. The grass die is included in the Picket Fence Border set. The fence was cut from white cardstock, as were the clouds. I created the sentiment “Pick of the Patch” on my computer and cut it with the larger cloud die.

Sunny Studio Stamps | Snow One Like You

Hello! It is hard to resist a winter scene with a snowman. In this post, I am sharing two cards, both showcasing the delightful stamp set Snow One Like You from Sunny Studio Stamps. On one, I used the Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again Polaroid-style frame, and on the other, I used the Sunny Studio Stamps Mini Mat & Tag 3 set to create a mat for my scene. In this post, I discussed the use of frames and mats in cardmaking.

To create the background, cover an A2-size card base with patterned paper.

To create the focal image, stamp Snow One Like You with Versafine on Arches Cold Press watercolor paper and heat set. Color the image with watercoloring medium of choice. Once dry, cut the images with the coordinating die set. (Check out my “Resources for Watercoloring Stamped Images” HERE.)

Use one of the hill dies in the Slimline Nature Borders set to create the snowbank.

Cut the frame with the Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again frame. Add snowbank and patterned paper behind the frame, trimming as needed. Cut sentiment with the Art Impressions Journal Letter die set from white glitter foam. Adhere the letters to the frame, attach the frame assembly to the background, and add the focal image to the card with foam adhesive.

Alternatively, cut a mat with the Sunny Studio Stamps Mini Mat & Tag 3 die set. Use a rectangle die to cut the sky from patterned paper and to trim the snowbank. Add the sentiment, cut with the Art Impressions Journal Letter die set from white glitter foam, to the snowbank. Add the assembly to the card background and the focal image to the card with foam adhesive.

Below are sketches of the two designs.
