Hi folks,
Welcome to the Sunny Studio Stamps 6th Birthday Blog Hop! This new release is just so much fun! If you love Christmas.. this one if for you! In celebration of SSS's 6th birthday, comment on this blogpost to win one of thirteen $25 gift vouchers to the store :)
If you have been following my work for a while on this blog or on my Instagram (check it out here), you know that I love stretching my supplies and using bold colors. I challenged myself to do just that and use as many products as I could from this release.. This fun ornament is quite easy to recreate!
I first started off by stamping and coloring a bunch of images from Deck the Halls and the wreath from Christmas Critters. I then ink blended a mini slimline sized green cardstock using green and navy blue dye ink. I then splattered green and yellow paint for some extra jazz! Later, I diecut various leaves from Winter Greenery from different shades of green cardstock. To make the leaves more realistic, I ink blended the edges using green dye ink and splattered some more green paint! I then added some red berries using the accompanying die and red cardstock.
I used the wreath as letter 'O'. For 'J' and 'Y', I wanted some bold alphas so that they could stand out from the busy background. I ended up using my silhouette to cut these alphas out of green and white glitter cardstock. Finally, I arranged all of them as shown in the images, added some details using a white gel pen and heat embossed a sentiment from Holiday Express on pink cardstock :)
Our official holiday release date is on August 27th, but in honor of our birthday the new products will available as a PRE-ORDER from today morning! How cool is that? There is more...
That's it from me! Be sure to check out what the rest of the team has in store for you:
