- CLOSED - [Blog Hop + Giveaway] Sunny Studio 9th Birthday + Fall & Winter 2024 Release

Hi there,

Let's celebrate Sunny Studio 9th Birthday with the launch of the Fall & Winter 2024 Release! Woohoo! I'm so excited about this release, everything is just so cute and beautiful, and I can't wait to share my projects with you!

Please scroll down for more details about this amazing blog hop + giveaway (closed)

I created a slimline night time scene showcasing Happy Howl-o-ween mostly. Aren't those dressed up pups the cutest? I love them so much! I'll be back in a couple of weeks with another card showcasing them, so stay tuned for more spooky cute inspiration!

I started off by stamping my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Pinkfresh Studio detail black ink, I cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Happy Howl-O-Ween - dogs, brooms, pumpkin bucket • Fall Scenes - house, bats, small pumpkins • Bountiful Autumn - large pumpkins • Too Cute To Spook - tiny Jack O' Lantern face.

For my background, I cut an 8,5 x 3,5 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel, and divided it in half using washi tape to create a night sky in the upper part, and a sidewalk on the lower part.

I started off by covering the bottom part with hickory smoke oxide ink, applying the ink with a light hand. And to create a pavement pattern, I used a brick stencil from my stash, and applied more hickory smoke oxide ink, but this time with a heavier hand.

Next I moved on to the sky, and cut a mask out of a post-it note using a circle die from my stash. I placed the dogs on the brooms on my panel to see where I wanted the moon to be, and attached the circle mask on the paper. From the mask towards the sides of my panel, I applied and blended tumbled glass, salty ocean, prize ribbon, chipped sapphire and black soot oxide inks. I splattered water droplets all over the sky and dried my panel using a paper towel. Next I mixed a drop of liquid stardust with a couple of water droplets, and added more splatters to the sky. I did the same with black soot oxide ink, and the same again with copic opaque white ink, but all over the panel.

I removed the circle mask, and added a little bit of tumbled glass oxide ink on the moon so that it wasn't totally white. I stamped my "Happy howl-o-ween" greeting from Happy Howl-o-ween in black right on the moon, and attached all my images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares to bring dimension to my scene. I stuck my panel to a white card base, and finished my card with highlights and details on the images using a white gel pen.
