Hi friends! Happy weekend! I'm super excited to be the guest designer again today on the Sunny Studio Stamps Blog! Yippeeee! You guys already know how much I love Sunny Studio! Cute stamps, awesome embossing folders and my favorite gingham papers! What's not to love? I hope you have a beautiful weekend! I'll be sharing two cards on the SS Blog and also sharing them here on my blog. Lots to show you! And the themes are monkeys and roses!? LOL!
First up today is a super fun birthday card with the adorable new Love Monkeys stamp set! I adore them! I stamped and die cut out a bunch of monkeys and vines. I also made them some accessories like cake and party hats! I used the Purrfect Birthday stamp set for those add-ons. Then, for the sentiment I used the Two Scoops stamp set. Really, when I make cards, I love to mix and match stamp sets to create my own unique creation.
This is a long card - measuring 8" x 4". I love the Staggered Circles die cut and cut that out of a white panel. I backed the circles with beautiful blue gingham paper. I had fun coloring everything with my Copics in shades of blue, yellow and pink. Who wouldn't want to party with these guys? The top white layer with the circles was mounted to the card using foam tape. Then I attached the monkeys and vines with foam tape also. Just the right amount of dimension, but not too much that it won't fit into an envelope.
My second project is a card made with lots of neutral colors and the gorgeous Everything's Rosy stamp set. I also used the beautiful Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder and some brown gingham. This card is an A2 size with a kraft card base. The flowers were stamped onto cream cardstock. The embossed background is also on cream cardstock. I layered gingham, vellum and kraft for my focal point of the card. I wrapped the kraft layer with pretty natural twine. I used gold paint to splatter gold flecks onto the cream embossed layer and the small kraft layer. Just a bit of added elegance. I stamped the roses using my MISTI in dark pink and pretty green shades. The sentiment is from the Happy Harvest stamp set! See - you don't have to only use that set for Autumn! The roses and leaves were mounted onto the card with foam tape. I added a few sparkly pink enamel dots to finish it off.
BIG THANKS to Mendi for inviting me to be a guest on the Sunny Studio Blog! Enjoy your weekend! XOXO

Monkeys are too cute! The flowers are beautiful! You have such a great “eye” for putting images, colors and textures together.

These little monkeys are too sweet. I could use a hang in there card about now. Your rose card is superb.. Love the stack effect and I am crazy for gingham in any color!

LOve your playful little monkeys... but, Wanda, did you hear my happy sigh all the way to California? Oh My Gorgeousness - and that natural paper is the perfect choice for these touch-of-vintage roses!
