Create a Quick and Easy Sunshine Card in Minutes

Hi there! I’m back with a quick and easy card today. I used the Under the Sun Etched Dies and the La Dolce Vita Banners Etched Dies by Spellbinders. This bright and happy card came together in less than 10 minutes. Anyways, let’s get started!

A colorful handmade card featuring a smiling sun face with rays, set against a polka dot background, and a banner reading 'HELLO SUNSHINE'.

I cut out two sun rays and one each of the following: face, sun, background for the eyes. I also cut two of the following: eyes, cheeks and lips. I did apply Adhesive to the back of the cardstock of the smaller pieces before cutting out. All cuts are from the Under the Sun Etched Dies.

Assorted die-cut pieces featuring a yellow face, sun rays, and a background pattern for crafting a card.

Side note, both yellow cardstocks, the face and sun ray are from Tattered and Worn Paper Collection. My friend Pam Bray created this collection and I’m so excited to include in creating this card.

I lightly inked all the pieces with Brown Chalk Ink before assembling the sunshine face.

I cut and folded a piece of cardstock, 4 1/4″x 5 1/2″, to create the base for the card. I cut a polk-a-dot mat from the Just Saying Paper Collection slightly smaller than the card base. I adhered to the base of the card along with the sunshine face.

I cut a banner and the “hello sunshine” sentiment from the La Dolce Vita Banners Etched Dies. I lightly inked with Brown Chalk Ink before gluing the sentiment off center of the banner. I adhered to the card base to finish.
