Sunny Studio - Little Red Riding Hood Themed Card

vendredi 18 avril 2025

Hello there,

I'm thrilled to be back on the Sunny Studio blog with this fun and lovely slimline scene featuring a character you might have recognized: Little Red Riding Hood. I created her using an image from Puddle Jumpers, and gave her some sweet and gentle wolf friends using images from Foxy Friends. Super fun!


I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. For Little Red Riding Hood, I simply masked the duck details off the hood, applied the ink to the stamp, removed the washi tape and then stamped the image. I did this two or three times to get a really nice impression, cut all the images using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers. I went for different shades of green for the trees, neutral warm grays for the wolves, turquoise the birds and of course red for Little Red Riding Hood, as well as the birdhouses for more red accents on the card.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used:  Foxy Friends - wolves, birds  Puddle Jumpers - little red riding hood  Seasonal Trees - trees, birdhouses, log  Bunnyville - grass, butterflies.


Next I cut a slimline panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock using a die from the Slimline Scalloped Frame die set, I divided it in half using washi tape, and colored both parts using oxide inks. I started with the lower section and blended mowed lawn and rustic wilderness oxide inks. I mixed some rustic wilderness oxide ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters to the grass border. Next I moved on to the upper part, first covered the entire section with tumbled glass oxide ink, and then used a tree stencil from my stash along with broken china oxide ink to add a forest background to my scene. I splattered water on the upper section and dried the panel with a paper towel, mixed some broken china with water and added more splatters, and then mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters all over my panel.

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and once my panel was dry, I attached them all using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. I cut a slightly larger slimline panel out of white cardstock and attached my Little Red Riding Hood scene on top using liquid glue. I cut a scalloped panel out of yellow cardstock using another Slimline Scalloped Frame die, stuck it to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches card base using 1mm foam tape, and then attached my little scene using foam tape again because I like my cards to have dimension.


Finally I used a Brilliant Banner 1 die to cut a banner out of brown cardstock, white heat embossed "Life with you is an adventure" from Critter Campout on that banner, and attached it right above Little Red Riding Hood using foam squares again. And that's it! I've had this idea in mind for quite a while so I was very happy to finally create it and I'm glad of how it turned out. Love those little wolves so much! I hope you do too. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Pretty Pink Posh - Hot Air Carrot Balloon Mix & Match

lundi 14 avril 2025

Hello there,

I'm so glad to be back with this new Easter card featuring a cute bunny in a hot air carrot balloon I built using a large variety of dies from different Pretty Pink Posh sets. I'm happy when I can mix and match my sets!


I started off with the card base and cut a large Slimline Peekaboo Windows panel out of kraft cardstock. I created a cloud background using one of the Spooky Sky stencils along with white pigment ink, and added a little bit of vintage photo distress ink to the edges. I mixed some of that same ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink. I cut an 8,5 x 3,5 inches panel out of brown woodgrain cardstock, added vintage photo distress ink to the edges, attached that panel to a card base, and then my cloudy kraft panel on top using liquid glue.


Next I cut all the bits and pieces out of colored cardstock and pattern papers. I added a bit of matching distress ink to each colored cardstock piece and then white splatters to all the elements, and once everything was dry, I attached them all to my panel using foam squares mostly to add dimension to my scene, as well as liquid glue at some places.

As always, here is a detailed list of the die sets I used: • Carrot Shaker - largest carrot • Fall Basket - basket • Party Balloons - strings • Bunny Holder - bunny • Valentine Holder Additions - heart cheeks • Easter Mug Additions - eyebrows, bow (on the bunny), large carrots • Easter Bucket Additions - large bow, daisies, medium carrots • Big Easter Cupcake - small carrots, bunny paws • Beautiful Bows - medium bows • Easter Holder Additions - small bows.


I applied glossy accents to the bunny's nose, gave him a pair of wiggly eyes, and added a heart in the center of each bow from the Valentine Hearts clay confetti mix and Colorful Hearts clay confetti mix. For my greetings, I white heat embossed "Hoppy Easter" from Easter Greetings on pink cardstock and cut it using the matching die. I also white heat embossed "Somebunny loves you" from Sentiment Strips: Easter on the same pink cardstock and trimmed it into a slim banner using a Sentiment Strips die. I applied matching distress ink to the edges of both greetings, and finally attached them to my card using foam squares.

Sunny Studio - Pull Tab Birthday Card

jeudi 10 avril 2025

Hi there,

I'm happy to be back on the Sunny Studio blog with this interactive birthday card featuring some cute pups having fun partying, and as very often I started off by stamping all the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my alcohol markers in browns and neutrals for the dogs and a yellow + green + aqua + turquoise color palette for the balloons, banners and presents.


As always, here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Doggone Birthday - dog in the center • Party Pets - other dogs, party hats, small presents, flying balloons • Heart Bouquet - balloons on both sides • Balloon Rides - banners.

I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and next worked on my interactive panel, starting by cutting a large Stitched Rectangle panel out of a Rainbow Bright starry blue paper. I mixed broken china oxide ink with water, used a slim brush to add splatters to my panel, and did the same with copic opaque white ink.


I created the whole interactive feature using a Summer Splash green paper, and you can check this process video showing how to build such an interactive card.

Once my interactive panel was done, I attached the images using liquid glue on the interactive tab for the flying dog and balloons, as well as 1 mm and 2 mm foam squares for the balloons, banners, presents and other dogs. I love those little guys so much, they're just so stinking cute with their happy faces!


I purposely left a space right between the balloons for my sentiment, I white embossed "Have a doggone birthday" from Doggone Birthday on yellow cardstock and used a Rounded Rectangle Mat die to turn it into a small banner that I attached to my panel using liquid glue. I attached my panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches white panel using 1mm foam tape, and then to a white card base to finish my card.

Pretty Pink Posh - Birthday Dogs & Cats + Alphabet Candles Slimline Card

samedi 5 avril 2025

Hello there,

I'm happy to be back with this colorful birthday themed slimline card showcasing the adorable Birthday Dogs & Cats and the amazing Alphabet Candles from the Pretty Pink Posh February 2025 Release. As very often, I found my color palette inspiration in the Pretty Pink Posh shaker beads, and more precisely in the new Party Time shaker beads mix that I just adore!


I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I used the matching dies to cut them all, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers in reds, pinks, greens and blues for the Alphabet Candles, balloons and presents, and in neutrals for the cute Birthday Dogs & Cats.


To go with my colorful images, I wanted to create a matching background, so I cut an 8,5 x 3,5 inches slimline panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, and covered the whole panel with spun sugar oxide ink first. Next I added a fun pattern using the Wavy Stripes stencil along with seedless preserves, worn lipstick, lumberjack plaid, lucky clover, mowed lawn and salty ocean oxide inks. I splattered water all over my panel and dried it with a paper towel. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water, and used a slim brush to add more splatters to my panel, and then I did the same with black soot oxide ink and with fossilized amber distress spritz for a touch of gold.


Next I created three smaller panels. I cut three Eyelet Rectangles out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock, masked the scalloped edges off on each panel, and colored them with spun sugar oxide ink. And to bring more interest to each panel, I added a word pattern using the Birthday Words stencil along with worn lipstick oxide ink. I splattered water on each panel and used a paper towel to dry them, and I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and used my slim brush again to add more splatters to my small panels.


Before attaching everything to my Wavy Stripes panel, I white heat embossed "Surprise" from Birthday Dogs & Cats on blue cardstock, "It's party time" from Sentiment Strips Birthday on red cardstock, and I trimmed both sentiments using a Sentiment Strips die. And then I stuck everything to my slimline panel, starting with the three Eyelet Rectangles using 1mm foam tape, and then the images and sentiment banners using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

To finish my card, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, applied glossy accents to the balloons and cherries on the cupcakes to make them shine, and white blizzard nuvo drops to the candle flames to make them sparkle.

Sunny Studio - Happy Easter Shaker Card

jeudi 3 avril 2025

Hello there,

I'm so happy to be back on the Sunny Studio blog with this bright and cheerful shaker card featuring some super cute chicks all gathered to celebrate Easter. Love those little guys and their chubby faces so much!


I started off by creating the whole shaker card base, and first cut a 4,5 x 3,5 inches Rounded Rectangle Mat panel out of a fun multicolored polka dot Summer Splash pattern paper, I cut two windows out of this panel using the third smallest Rounded Rectangle Window die, attached my panel to a piece of acetate and then trimmed the excess of acetate around my Rounded Rectangle Mat multicolored polka dot panel.

At the back of my multicolored polka dot panel, I added 2mm foam strips all around the windows and on the rest of the panel as well. I poured multicolored sequins inside each window, removed the backing papers off the foam strips, and attached a Flirty Flowers green panel to the foam strips to totally close my shaker panel.

I attached my shaker panel to a 5,25 x 4 inches Gingham Pastels pink panel using liquid glue, next to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Polka Dot Parade blue panel using liquid glue again, and then to a white card base to finish my shaker card base.


Next I stamped my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them all using the coordinating dies and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. As always, here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Chickie Baby - chicks, basket, flowers, eggshells • Chubby Bunny - banner, flowers • Spring Showers - umbrellas.


I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then attached them to my card using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. And to finish it, I added glossy accents to the multicolored Chubby Bunny banner to make it super shiny.

lundi 31 mars 2025

Sunny Studio - Super Duper Sliding Window Birthday Card

vendredi 28 mars 2025

Hello there,

I'm happy to be back with a new Sliding Window card, another birthday themed one, featuring the cutest super heroes. I really love to create those interactive cards because they're very easy to assemble, and they're great to use your pattern papers, one thing I wish I'd do more often.


So, I started off by stamping my Super Duper images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers. I went for a fun green + aqua + blue + yellow color palette that matches the super hero theme quite nicely, and once the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.


I stamped numbers and letters on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using the Balloon Numbers and the Balloon Alphabet. I first stamped a "1" and a "0" using Lawn Fawn freshly cut grass dye ink, and cut those numbers using the coordinating dies. Next I stamped "HB2U" (happy birthday to you) using Lawn Fawn fish tank, freshly cut grass, sunflower and mermaid dye inks, and I wanted those letters to be real letters and not balloons, so before stamping them, I masked the balloon details with washi tape, and after die cutting the letters, I trimmed off the excess of paper below each letter with scissors. I set everything aside and moved on to the Sliding Window card.

I cut a 5 x 3,75 inches Surprise Party Starry Blue panel using the largest Stitched Rectangle, cut the Sliding Window out of it, as well as the notch at the very top, and also cut a 5 x 3,25 inches Heroic Halftones Yellow panel.

I folded my Sliding Window Starry Blue panel on the score lines, flipped it over, and added double sided tape to the slim bottom tab. I peeled the backing paper off this tab, flipped my Yellow panel over, and attached it at the back of my Sliding Window Starry Blue panel, lining up the bottom edge of the Yellow panel with the edge of the slim tab. And I wanted to frame my sliding starry blue panel nicely, so I cut a 5 x 3,75 inches Heroic Halftones Black panel, cut a Sliding Window out of it, as well as the notch at the top, I trimmed the center of that panel to get a frame, and stuck that frame to my Starry Blue panel using liquid glue.

Next I cut a Heroic Halftones Green panel using the largest Stitched Rectangle, I flipped my Sliding Window panel over, and added foam strips along the bottom edge, on the long edges as well, but not along the top edge. I peeled all the backing papers off, and attached my sliding panel to the Green panel. Next I attached my sliding panel to a 5,25 x 4 inches holographic panel, and finally to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Polka Dot Parade Green panel.

And to complete my interactive panel, I attached the remaining piece of Heroic Halftones Black paper at the top of the Yellow pull tab panel, cut a green eyelet using a Sliding Window die, stuck that eyelet, pierced a hole through it, and added navy blue thread twine with a green bead to be able to pull the interactive panel.

Next I decorated the front of my Sliding Window panel. I cut a 3 x 1/4 inch slim strip out of dark gray cardstock and attached it at the very bottom of the interactive panel using 2mm foam squares. I cut three Cityscape borders out of indigo blue cardstock, stuck each border to some lighter blue cardstock, trimmed that lighter blue cardstock all around the buildings, added highlights and details using a white gel pen, cut the borders to fit on the interactive panel, and attached them using foam squares.

I cut a speech bubble out of black cardstock using a Comic Strip Speech Bubble die, white heat embossed "Have an incredible birthday" from Super Duper on it, and then attached the images and "HB2U" on the front of the card and on the inside as well using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.

Next I stamped two balloon strings from Balloon Alphabet, cut them and attached each of them to an acetate strip using liquid glue. At the end of each string, I attached the "1" and the "0" using 3mm glue dots, I stuck the strings in the girl's hand using liquid glue again, and this way when the Sliding Window card is open, the balloons stay up in the air.

[IG HOP DAY 1] Pretty Pink Posh - Chickie Easter Mix & Match

lundi 24 mars 2025


Hello there,

Spring is in the air, and Pretty Pink Posh has a new Easter collection. This collection features eggs, bunnies, tulips, butterflies, and more to inspire all your upcoming Easter projects! And I'm thrilled to be back with this super duper adorable Easter card showcasing two cute chicks and some pretty pink daisies. As always I went all mix & match to build my little scene, and I love how sweet and fun it turned out.

 Make sure to check my post on Instagram and hop along for inspiration that will inspire your birthday projects all year long!


I started off by working on the card base, and cut a 4,5 x 3,25 inches panel out of kraft cardstock. I added a nice texture to it using the Pierced Leafy Vines Plate, and a daisy pattern using the Springtime Borders stencils along with spun sugar, worn lipstick and fossilized amber oxide inks. This stencil set comes with carrots and tulips patterns too, but I didn't want to add those to my panel, so I just masked those sections off with washi tape in order to create my rows of pink daisies. I mixed some vintage photo distress ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink.

I cut a large Eyelet Rectangle panel out of brown woodgrain cardstock, and added vintage photo and ground espresso distress inks to the edges to darken them a little. I mixed some vintage photo distress ink with water and added splatters to the scalloped edges of my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink. Once my panels were dry, I attached the pink daisy panel to the Eyelet Rectangle panel using liquid glue, next to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches light beige panel, and then to a white card base.


Next I cut two Grass Borders as well as all the bits and pieces out of colored cardstock and pattern papers. I added a bit of matching distress ink to the edges of the cardstock pieces, white splatters to all the elements, and once everything was dry, I assembled all the pieces on my card using foam squares and liquid glue.

As always here is a detailed list of the die sets I used:  Candy Bucket - bucket  Easter Bucket Additions - daisies, large chick, large bec  Valentine Bucket Additions - large heart cheeks  Big Easter Cupcake - small chick body, small heart cheeks  Bunny Holder - small chick belly  Easter Mug Additions - small bec, eyebrows  Party Hats - comb  Beautiful Bows - bows.


I gave each chick a pair of wiggly eyes, applied glossy accents to their bec, and glued a yellow heart confetti from the Colorful Hearts clay confetti mix in the center of each bow. For my greeting, I white heat embossed "Joyful Easter Wishes" from Sentiment Strips: Easter on yellow cardstock, cut it into a slim banner using a Sentiment Strips die, added a bit of matching distress ink to the edges of the banner, and finally attached it at the bottom of my panel using foam squares.
