Sunshine & Sunflowers Friend Ship Cards | Tonic Studios Stamp Club Release

It's the last Friday of the month and you know what that means, it's time for another Tonic Stamp Club Release!

Welcome to the June 2021 Tonic Studios Sunshine & Sunflowers June 2021 Release. If you have already joined the hop you have finally made it to the last stop and should have arrived from Jen's Blog.  I will link the complete hop list and giveaway details near the end of this post, so stay tuned for those just getting started! 

Sunflowers are some of my favorites, and I was excited to see them on this release. Let's take a look at this versatile Sunshine & Sunflowers Set US | UK. 

• STAMPS: Large, beautiful sunflower stamps with lovely sentiments.
• DIES: Coordinate with the stamps AND also include paper-layering sunflower builder dies.
• Use the flower builder dies with colored cardstock and/or paper you've colored or ink blended.

I love how these sets come in high-quality plastic sleeves, that are compatible to work with A5 ring binders. How cool is that!? They come in an Orange US|UK or Blue binder US|UK.

So let's get started on the 3 cards I have made for inspiration today.

CARD RECIPE#1

• Blend out the background using pink, yellow, and blue ink overlapping each color to produce the rainbow blend.
• Die-cut the pieces for the sunflower using the dies from the Sunshine & Sunflowers die set using white cardstock.
• Piece the fower together, adding foam in between the layers.
• For the leaves use vellum.

• To the center of the flower, I added some chunky glitter.
• Glue sunflower to the center of the blended area.
• Add the stem.
• Stamp the sentiment from the Sunshine & Sunflowers set along the stem.
• Trim the panel and attach it to the card base, using foam in between.
• Finish with an iridescent bubble.

 

CARD RECIPE#2

• Die-cut all the pieces for 3 sunflowers using the dies from the Sunshine & Sunflowers set.
• Color each sunflower by blending out 3 different inks. 
• Piece together each flower head using foam in between to add dimension.
• Blend out the leaves and stems.

• Glue elements to the card front. 
• Stamp out the sentiment.
• Trim the panel and attach it to the card base.
• Add chunky glitter to the centers of the flowers.

CARD RECIPE#3

• Stamp out the sunflower using a no-line ink.
• Color using Copic markers, and details using Prismacolor pencils.
• For the background, I used shimmer powder on watercolor paper.
• Trim the background to fit the Mini Slimline card.

• Glue the flower pieces onto the background.
• Stamp the sentiment along the stem.

• To the ladybug add glossy accents.
• Add chunky Glitter to the center of the flower.

Whaley Great Frameless Slimline Shaker Card | Tonic Studios

Hello friends, 

Guess what?  Not only is today Father's Day, but it is also my Birthday! Woohoo!!! Yay for getting older, lol!

Today's card is part of an 👉Instagram Hop. A bunch of my crafty friends and I have joined together to encourage and send good vibes to a fellow crafter in need. Please join us over there and help send some love and encouragement to our friend Andy Granick.

As you can see I made another frameless shaker card. Only this time I did use the Shaker Creator Pockets that I helped to develop from Tonic Studios. If you haven't tried my DIY technique or using these pockets you are missing out as they are a complete shaker game changer.

CARD RECIPE

• Create your background panel. (I used Atelier Re-Inkers to watercolor this slimline panel)
• Stamp out the images onto the background.
• SHOOT FOR THE STARS
• WHALEY GREAT SET
• Die-cut the fish into the sea and then glue a piece of foil cardstock in behind the panel.
• Trim to fit the Slimline Shaker Creator Pocket.

• Create the Shaker Pocket by folding and gluing down 3 of the SHAKER CREATOR tabs to the background panel.
• Fill with shaker bits.
• Fold and glue down the last tab.
• Add the Shaker Front to a Slimline Card base using a strong adhesive.
• Stamp out the images from the WHALEY GREAT SET, color, and die-cut them using the coordinating die set.
• Glue them onto the shaker front.
• The moon comes from the SHOOT FOR THE STARS set that I ink blended.

• Stamp the inside with a sentiment from the WHALEY GREAT SET.

• Here are a few close-ups of this pretty ocean scene.

I hope this Whaley Great Frameless Slimline Shaker Card inspired you today as well as encouraged my friend Andy! 

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Make a Wish Frameless Shaker Card | Tonic Studios

Hello, my friends, and happy Friday!

If you joined me here for the Tonic Studios Shoot for the Stars Blog Hop, last month, you would have known that I hadn't received the release on time. So now that the products arrived, I have a fabulous shaker card to share with you featuring the Shoot for the Stars Stamp and Die Set!

Fun fact: For those of you that don't know, the new Shaker Creator Pockets from Tonic Studios, came from my idea... Remember my DIY Frameless Shaker Cards, well I showed them to Tonic Studios last year at Creativation and they thought it was a brilliant idea! Fast forward and a little over a year and now everyone can make them. The best part is that they come in many sizes too! If you are looking for the most popular A2 size, Simon Says still has some in stock, just saying 😉 

CARD RECIPE

• I started by creating the background for this shaker card. On watercolor paper, I sprinkled various shimmer powders and then spritzed them down with water. Adding layers of color and allowing the paper to dry in between colors.

• Once dry I then die-cut random stars from the background. 
• I then adhered a piece of silver glitter paper from the SILVER SERVICE paper pad behind the background to make the stars sparkle. 
• Stamp out the sentiments onto the background panel.
• Trim background to fit inside the Shaker Creator Pocket. 

• Fold and secure 3 of the Skaker Creator tabs to the background. 
• Fill the pocket with your shaker bits.
• Seal the last tab.
• Adhere the shaker pocket to a card base.
• Finish by adhering the die-cuts to the front.

Here is a side view. These shaker pockets are so easy to put together, no foam needed!

I hope you were inspired by this Shoot for the Stars creation. I think this would make a wonderful birthday card for someone or even for a friend who needs cheering up.

Below you will find all the links to the supplies I used.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
