Little Angel's Birthday

Hello everyone! Lexa here today to share an inspiration how to use holidays themed stamp set for non holidays one. I use this adorable Little Angels Stamp set and it's coordinating dies together with Angelic Sentiments Stamp.


I blend Worn Lipstick and Shaded Lilac Distress Inks with a stencil to create the background. Then I layer the silver foil striped vellum in the middle, it looks so pretty. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers, keept all the colors muted and soft since I want to make it looks angelic so they match the background perfectly. One thing I love about clear stamps is I can bend them as much as I would, just like I bend the sentiment to follow the banner curves. This card is so simple to make and yet will make any little angel's day.


I really hope you like today's card as much as I do. Thank you so much for visitting the blog today. I hope you all have an amazing day!

Sunny Studio : Last Minute Christmas Tags

Hello everyone! Lexa here, have you get all your presents wrapped up and also don't miss the gift tags too. This time of the year is the most wonderful and hectic at the same time. So today I will share an inspiration for last minute tags that maybe can save your time or your life. Hehe.


I use Tag Toppers Traditional Dies together with Fishtail Banner II Dies. Attached them to the paper with low tack tape and die cut them at the same time. Such a time saver.. I blend Distress Inks for the background, Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick, Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers. After I'm happy with the blending I stamp Frosty Flurries with matching dye inks.
I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. The Gleeful Reindeers are so adorable, and no one can get enough those cute gingerbread boy from Jolly Gingerbread. After I finish putting them all together, now it's time to tie up some ribbons and twines to finish the tags.




Thank you so much for visitting the blog today! I hope you enjoy today's post and have an amazing holidays everyone.

Quick and Easy Christmas Tags

Hello crafty friends! It's almost Christmas day, we are all counting down to the most wonderful time of the year. I'm so busy wrapping presents, baking and all. So I decided to create this quick and easy gift tags to get the presents ready on the big day.


I use Scallop Hexagons Die Set for the tag's base, I use both the frames and the negatives to create the tags. I created ten gift tags in total, so I started with die cut the Scallop Hexagons on white cardstock and pink polkadot patterned paper five times each. For the white negatives, I blended Distress Inks in Spun Sugar on the top part and create a gradation.

I stamped all the images from Winter Woodland and Christmas Friends with Versafine black ink then watercolor them with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring, I die cut all my images with the coordinating dies. Winter Woodland currently is my most favorite set from PPP with no doubt, I think I will use it anytime not only for holiday's projects. The sentiments are from Holiday Greetings stamp set which has super pretty font that I love.



I pick pink, red and white for this gift tags. I always find it easier to choose what colors I want first before I start to making things. So I'll know which paper should I use or what color the images should be and everything will be look good together. After I finished tied up some ribbons and laces to the tags, I decided to put some matching sequins to add more festive ambience. Luckyly, PPP has Sweetheart Mix Cuped Sequins to match my gift tags. YAY!

Hello Foxy!

Hi there! It's Lexa here with a card that full of sunshine today. It's always sunny (or rainy some other times) in where I live, so I decided to create a bright card for you all..


I use older stamp sets for today's card by combining Sunny Sentiments, Woodsy Creatures and Backyard Bugs together to create a little scene. I stamp all the images with Versafine black ink then watercolor them with Distress Markers. When you go through your Sunny Studio stamps collection, you will realize that you can combine most of all the stamp sets together. That's how versatile the designs are. After I finished with the coloring, I die cut all the images with the coordinating dies.

As for the background I want it to be solid this time. So I die cut green and blue cardstock with a basic stitched rectangular dies, then adhere it to the 4.25"x5.5" card base. That create thin white borders around it and look like a frame. I stamped "hello" on the cloud, it's a simple and warming greeting for everyday cards. Here's a closer look of my card...


I really hope you enjoy the post and my card for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

PPP Warm Hugs and Lots Of Love

Hello everyone! Lexa here today with a winter theme card, featuring some holiday stamp sets, Winter Woodland and Christmas Friends. Today I will play with watercolor for the background using Caran D'Ache Neocolor II. 


Holiday stamp sets also can be used for everyday cards as well. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink that works the best for watercoloring. My style of watercolor is always a little bit loose, I always use Distress Markers and damp brush for coloring. I mix blue and purple for the sky, blend the colors with lots of wate and left some white borders on the edges. I love to create a little scene, it just make me happy everytime I make up stories behind it.

After I finished with the background, I make a snow hill as the ground for the little boy and winter animals to stand. Aren't they the cutest? It probably one of my most favorite stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh ever.


Here are some closer looks of my card. Sparkling Clear Sequins Mix is a perfect companion for this card, it creates snow drops from the sky as well as create dimensions. Somehow it makes the scene look so dreamy together with the pastel color sky.


Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you guys like my card as much as I do. Have a wonderful day!

Winter Chapel Christmas Card

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with another inspiration for Chirstmas cards, I made a simple yet elegant card featuring Christmas Chapel stamp and it's coordinating dies.


When it comes to create a clean and simple design, I always focus on the color combination and the layout. Today I chose blue, navy and mint as my color muse. I created my own mask by diecut a rounded edges rectangle on a piece of acetate. Then I blend some Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks in gradation, after I'm happy with the blending I stamped the stars from the same stamp set with blue dye ink. The white dots are created with Nuvo Drops, it adds such an amazing dimensions to my card. I stamp my images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. I also stamp a snowy Christmas tree from Christmas Home stamp set to complete my scene. I also bend the "Merry Christmas" sentiment to follow the banner on top -this one of main reason why I love clear stamps! Here's a closer look of my card...


The border on the bottom part is to fill in an empty space, but I still want to keep it simple using the smaller Stitched Scallop Dies on navy cardstock against the mint polkadot patterned paper. I really hope you enjoy today's card. Thank you so much for stopping by today, I wish you an amazing day!

Playful Polarbear Holiday Card

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a winter theme card using Playful Polar Bears stamp and the coordinating dies. What's better than a cute polar bear on your card? Three polar bears, of course.


I devided my card into three sections, die cut stitched hills and blend some Cracked Pistachio Distress Ink to give some depth and dimension. And create a gradation Seedless Preserved for the sky, after I'm happy with the blending I stamp some snowflakes on the background to fill in the empty space. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. I also add some accent with white gel pen after the watercolor completely dried up. The sentiment is stamped following the snow hill's curves... and I think it looks really cute.


To finished my card, I create some dots using Nuvo Drops aqua glitter, it really give my card some sparkles. Which is alwas needed for holiday cards. Thank you so much for visitting today, I hope you enjoy today's post. Have an amazing December everyone!
