Sunny Studio Stamps - Fabulous Flamingos

 

Hello friends!  Today, I have a card to share with you using one of my favorite Sunny Studio stamp sets, Fabulous Flamingos!  I love the images in this set so much.  Flamingos are one of my favorite animals, and although I've had this set for awhile, this is the first time I am getting to use it!  To create this card, I started off by ink blending a tropical sky background directly onto an A2 white card base using Distress ink in Salt Water Taffy and Squeezed Lemonade.  I concentrated the yellow in the center, then overlapped the Saltwater Taffy and blended the ink softer as I worked down the panel, eventually fading into white.  Then, I stamped and colored several images from the Fabulous Flamingos stamp set with copic markers and diecut them with the coordinating Fabulous Flamingos Dies.  

I arranged my scene, gluing some image down with glue pen and popping some up with foam tape for extra dimension.  Underneath the scene, I placed a white banner diecut stamped with a sentiment from the set.  To finish off my card, I added some white gel pen accents and a trio of tiny clay hearts.

That's all for me today!  Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

Reverse Confetti April Creative Hop!

 

Hello there!  It's the the 8th of the month, and that means a Reverse Confetti Blog Hop!  Today, we have a special surprise for you!  It's time for our spring sale!  From April 8-10th, 2022, get 20% off of your order in the Reverse Confetti Store using code SPRING.  Shop early for the best selection! ;)

My project today is extra spring-y!  I pulled out my new Reverse Confetti favorite, Hello Daisy to create a bright pastel bouquet.  To create this card, I started off by watercoloring a piece of watercolor paper cut to 4" x 5.25".  I added a wash of color using Saltwater Taffy Distress Ink.  Then, I stamped and colored the large bouquet from Hello Daisy with copic markers in shades of coral, yellow, periwinkle and spring green.  I diecut it with the coordinating Hello Daisy Confetti Cuts dies, and before adding it to the watercolor panel, I added a strip of polka dot patterned paper from the Darling Dots 6x6 paper pad.

I stamped the large "hello" from the Hello Daisy stamp set in black ink and diecut it with the coordinating die, then diecut twice more from white cardstock.  I glued all of the diecuts together with a glue pen for some added dimension without having to use foam tape.  Then, before popping it up on an A2 card base, I added a strip of black and white washi tape to the left edge of the card base to pull in just a little bit more black.  To finish off this card, I added some white gel pen accents.

Be sure to hop along to see what the rest of the team and our special guests have to share with you and don't forget to take advantage of the great spring sale! :)

Sunny Studio Stamps - Little Birdie

 

Hello friends! I am here with a sweet card using the adorable Little Birdie stamp set from Sunny Studio Stamps!  To create this card, I started off by watercoloring a piece of watercolor paper cut to 4" x 5.25" with Broken China Distress ink.  I added several layers of color, drying each layer with a heat tool before adding the next.  I concentrated the color to the top left of the panel knowing that I wanted to keep my scene in that space.  I stamped and colored several images from the Little Birdie stamp set, and diecut them with the coordinating Little Birdie dies. 

Then, I stamped a sentiment from the set on a diecut banner and popped everything up with foam tape.  The panel was popped up on an A2 card base.  To finish off this card, I added a few tiny clay hearts and some white gel pen accents.

That's all for me today!  Thanks for stopping by! :)

Sunny Studio Stamps - Cherry Blossoms

 

Hello friends!  Today, I have a card to share with you using the Cherry Blossoms stamp set from Sunny Studio Stamps.  To create this card, I started off with a piece of watercolor paper cut to 4" x 5.25".  I used Worn Lipstick Distress ink to watercolor a drippy background on the panel, concentrating most of the color at the top, then I tipped the panel on end and allowed the color to run down the panel a bit.  When I was happy with the placement, I hit it with my heat tool to dry the watercolor and leave hard edges.  Then, I added a splattering of black watercolor.  I stamped several of the Cherry Blossoms in shades of pink and coral and diecut them with the coordinating Cherry Blossoms dies.  

I arranged them at the top of the panel and glued some down with a glue pen and popped others up with foam tape.  I stamped a sentiment from the Lovey Dovey stamp set in black ink and diecut it with the coordinating Lovey Dovey dies. I popped the sentiment up with foam tape, then popped the panel up on an A2 card base.  I added a strip of black and white washi tape to the left edge of the card base, and added Onyx Black Crystals to the front most flower centers.  Finally, I added some white gel pen accents to each of the blooms.

That's all for me today!  Thanks for stopping by! :)
