I started off by stamping five Tiny Dancers on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush, using light greys for the white swans and dark greys for the black swan. And when the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.
Next I cut a square panel out of a Classic Sunburst black paper using the largest Stitched Square die, and I added lots of textures to my piece of paper. I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and used a slim brush to add splatters all over the panel to bring brightness. I did the same with black soot distress ink for contrast, and finally added splatters of brushed pewter mica spray for sparkles.
Once my panel was dry, I cut a scalloped frame out of white shimmer cardstock using the largest Fancy Frames Square die, and attached that frame to my panel using 1mm foam squares.
For my greeting, I first heat embossed "When you stumble, make it part of the" from Tiny Dancers in white, on the upper part of my panel. Next I cut the word "Dance" twice using the Chloe Alphabet die set, out of black glittery cardstock and out of white cardstock. I glued each black shiny letter to its matching white letter using liquid glue, shifting them a little bit to create a white border, and then I attached the letters using 1mm foam squares.
I stuck my Tiny Dancers using 1mm foam squares for the ones in the back and 2mm foam squares for the ones on the front, glued a scattering of small silver star confetti, and finally attached my panel to a white card base.

Hey there,
I'm thrilled to be back on Sunny Studio's blog with this duo of cute and bright cards. They feature the butterfly stamp from the Watering can stamp set, I didn't get a chance to use that stamp before, and I thought it would be nice to use it with rainbow colors.
Hey there,
I'm very happy to be back with a very special card. Today is World Leukemia day, and my friend Claudia, whose daughter Gaia is fighting Leukemia, has organized an Instagram hop featuring many talented designers, and this hop has lots of sponsors as well. Please check the video below to see how this hopeful and rainbow shaker card was made.
World Leukemia Day on Sept 4th is a global campaign led collaboratively by patient groups around the world. It's the day of the year when people around the world can come together to help raise awareness about leukemia. By increasing leukemia awareness and educating the world about the signs and symptoms of this condition, we can work together to help patients with this disease receive early diagnoses, help more people, improve their quality of life after diagnosis, and give them hope! But can we really do anything? Yes, we can. By donating blood, donating bone marrow, helping research with contributions.
On this special day, cardmakers from all over the world have joined us and created a card inspired by Hope. These incredible artists have dedicated their time to awareness, visit all of our artists to see their wonderful inspiration.
