Sunny Studio Stamps: Quill Cuties & Icing Rectangle Frame

Hello Crafty Friends! I'm on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and have a card to share with you featuring these adorable Quill Cuties, the awesome Sydney Alphabet Dies and the fun Icing Rectangle Frame Dies. Aren’t these hedgehogs just the cutest? So let’s get started.

I stamped the images from the Quill Cuties Stamp and the bouquet of balloons from the Party Pets Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Quill Cuties Dies and Party Pets Dies to diecut them out. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:

Hedgehogs: E00/21/11/13, E33/99, R20

Pink: RV000/10/21/13/14

Teal: BG10/11/53/45

White: C1

For the background, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (4.25” x 5.5”) and lightly ink blended some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide. I used the smaller frame die from the Icing Rectangle Frame Dies to diecut a frame 3 times out of white cardstock. (TIP: I found it helpful to save the negative from this diecut to help align and adhere the frame to the panel.) 

For the sentiment, I used the Sydney Alphabet Dies to diecut the HUGS 3 times out of white cardstock. I colored one set of the letters with Copic markers. I layered and adhered the 3 sets of the letters with liquid adhesive. I used the icing frame, colored images and the HUGS letters to roughly plan out the card front and align the  “Sending You" sentiment from the Quill Cuties Stamp set.  I stamped the sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black ink directly onto the inked panel. 

I adhered the icing frame and HUGS to the panel with liquid glue. The colored images were adhered to the panel with foam tape for additional dimension and interest. The card front was adhered to an A2 white card base (4.25" x 5.5"). 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card. For more info and ideas, be sure to visit the Sunny Studio Stamps Shop. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.
