Today I’m popping in with a card that was on the Jane’s Doodles blog earlier this week. It uses the Ahoy stamp set. I did some masking and ink blending to create the sand and water. The images were coloured with Copic markers, then I fussy cut round them before adhering some of them with foam dimensionals.

The school holidays are winding down and I have to start back at school Thursday week. The summer holidays are nearly over. We did manage to get away and we went to Melbourne for 4 nights. It was fun exploring the city and surrounds. And the food we ate! Well Melbourne, you know how to do food. I put up some photos over on Instagram if you are interested – just search for @marionvagg.

Thanks for stopping by today,

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.

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.

I appreciate you stopping by,

Good evening (or morning depending on where you live!) I have another Sunny Studio card to share with you which uses the Santa’s Helpers stamp set, the coordinating dies and the popular Fishtail Banners dies.

All the images are coloured with Copic Markers and I attached the banner to the card front with my sewing machine. A great Christmas stamp set for any animal lover!

Short and sweet from me tonight. Have a great night (or day). I’m off to bed!

Happy Friday! School is out and I’m on holiday for 6 weeks! Hopefully I will be able to catch my breath now. The last month has just been a whirlwind of activity.

Well today I have a Sunny Studio card to share with you using another one of Mendi’s cute penguin sets called Snow Kissed. For something a little different I decided to create a window card (but I always find these so hard to photograph!) To create the window, a partially die cut a circle and then created the flat bottom with my craft knife and a ruler.

The penguin was stamped and then die cut with the Snow Kissed dies. I made the window just big enough so that I could secure the penguin both at the top and bottom.

For a subtle pattern on the card front, I stamped the snowflakes stamp in Versamark ink and added some snowflake dies from the Snow Kissed die set.

The image is coloured with Copics markers and I added a white piece of paper to the inside of the card, so that when it is closed, white peeks through.

That’s all from me today. Thanks for visiting,

Happy Friday! Friday means I have a new post up on the Sunny Studio blog. This week the DT have been using the Bundled Up stamp set and the Bundled Up dies – a very fun and adorable penguin set. You can add a number of winter themed accessories to your penguin. The hardest thing was choosing which accessories to use!

The background was created by white heat embossing the snowflakes onto blue card stock. This cute penguin pair (coloured with Copic Markers) look like they are having lots of fun at the snow 🙂

Hi there. I’m popping in super quick with a card that I have over on the Sunny Studio blog. It uses the Santa’s Helpers stamp set and its coordinating dies.

I coloured the image in with Copic Markers and created a thicker sentiment by layering 4 ‘Merry’ words together.

Short and sweet from me today. I’m off to bed to get some sleep as it’s been a long day.

Thanks for visiting,
