Sunny Studio Guest Designer

I’m Guest Designing on the Sunny Studio blog this weekend. I got to play around with some of the new Sunny Studio 2016 Winter Release. There are some awesome stamps and dies in this release – be sure to check it out here.

First up I used the Merry Sentiments stamp set and matching die to create a colourful string of lights. The tree branch is from the Holiday Style stamp set and I stamped it several times in two different shades of green. I used the Merry Word die as part of the sentiment.

Next up is another Christmas card using the same sets as before. To add some dimension to the card, I created some ornament hangers with silver thread. To compliment this, I silver heat embossed the sentiment.

Lastly, I have used the Small Holly die (which is a free gift with every purchase from the Sunny Studio store while stocks last) to create a simple embellishment for a gift tin. I heat embossed the sentiment from the Merry Sentiments Stamp set onto some vinyl adhesive stickers.

Sending Sweet Birthday Wishes – Sunny Studio

Hello. I’m popping in really quickly with a chocolate wrapper project that is up on the Sunny Studio blog. It uses the newly released Sending My Love stamp set.

Sunny Studio Sweet Birthday | Marion Vagg

The bear is coloured with Copic Markers and I added some red Stickles to the heart for some shine. The wrap slips on and off very easily. I may have to make a few more of these and can change up the sentiment as there are loads of different options in the set. Make sure you check it out here.

Gift bags – Print Candee

Hi everyone,

Today I have a couple of gift bags/boxes to share with you using Print Candee products. This month the Creative Team are working on projects with the theme of a ‘gift for you’ and since I love to give little boxed gifts – it was right up my alley.

All the papers I used are digital papers from the Nature Shapes – paper pack from Pixel Paper Prints. Aren’t they just beautiful? They printed perfectly onto my white card stock. I used the Ribbon Bag – blank template to make the bags. The butterflies are the Colorful Patterned Butterflies by Print Candee and the labels are from the Assorted Labels set by Print Candee. They were so easy to make, and I know that I will be making a lot more for parties in the future. Print Candee have many box templates to choose from. Check them out here.

And because I love making boxes, I kept going. This is a box template I have been meaning to try out for a while thanks to Kerry. Once again all the papers are digital papers from the Nature Shapes – paper pack from Pixel Paper Prints. Same Butterfly and Assorted Labels sets as above. These two boxes are filled with chocolates to give to two girls who are about to sit their HSC exams (final exams in Year 12 in NSW, Australia) who I taught when they were in Year 2 and Year 6! Both girls are close to my heart and I wish them all the best!
