Hello Crafty Friends! I'm on the Sunny Studio Stamps Blog today and I am so excited to share a card featuring the brand new Pathway Home set from the Holiday Release. Have you seen all of the amazing new products? The Pathway Home Stamp and Dies set is especially versatile in that it can be used for different seasons as well as different size and orientation of cards. Another super cool aspect of this set is that there is a die that can diecut the top edge of the scene. This unique feature of the die set was just perfect for my easel card today. So let’s get started.
I stamped the background and the adorable additional images from the Pathway Home Stamps, some birds from the Foxy Friends Stamps, and the cloud from the Tulip Path Background Stamps sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I decided to stamp some apples directly onto the trees so as to not have the white outlines from the diecutting. I used the coordinating Pathway Home Dies, Foxy Friends Dies, and Tulip Path Background Dies to diecut them out. I also used the Gift Card Envelope Dies to diecut a heart for the front door. I colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Squirrels: E000/00/21, E53/33/35/37, R00/20

Rocks: W0/1/3/5
Grass: YG01/03
Cloud: B0000/000
For the easel basecard, I took a piece of white cardstock (5.5” x 11”) and used a score board to score at the 2.25” and 5.5” marks. I folded on the score lines to create a top-folding 5.5” square card with a score line across the front panel. Next, I took a piece of light blue cardstock (5.5” x 3.25””) and adhered it to the top portion of the front panel — this should just cover the top of the card to the score line. Then I adhered the bottom of my colored background panel to the bottom portion of the front panel — be sure to only place adhesive onto the exposed white potion of the front panel (and not the blue part) so as to not interfere with the easel mechanism. I adhered the cloud to the blue panel.
For the sentiment, I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to diecut the banner die 3 times out of red cardstock. I stamped the “home” sentiment from the Build-a-Greeting Holidays Stamps and the “sweet” from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps set with Versamark Watermark ink onto the banner and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I layered and adhered the additional two banners to the back of the embossed banner to give it some bulk since it will be the stopper for my easel design. Finally, I adhered the sentiment banner to the inside of the card.
