Before we get to the winners reveal, I have one more bonus card to share with you all. Ann created this stunning card featuring the Jungle Vines Stencils 360°™.


Ann rotated Barrel C from the Jungle Vines Stencils 360°™ by 22.5 degrees, jumping and ink blending from ‘heart to heart’ with a light dusty pink to create a soft background. She then layered Barrel D on top, also spun at 22.5 degrees. The combination of purple and blue alternating against the light dusty pink background is absolutely stunning!

I love how she subtly offset her canvas to the right, giving it a beautifully asymmetric look! The bold ‘gratitude’ sentiment is from Dots In Harmony sentiments. She finished off her card with matching color card base and some gems! LOVE!

Winter Release Inspiration Week & Giveaway – Day 5

Time flies! Welcome back to Sunbird Spark’s Winter Release Inspiration Week – Day 5! A warm reminder that today is your LAST chance to comment on all of the Inspiration Week’s blog posts to play along (more on how to play along on our Giveaway HERE!) for your chance to win our best-selling Stencils 360°™ Friends Ed. stenciling tool!

Today, I’m thrilled to showcase our new Music Magic (Chapter 1) & (Chapter 2) stamp sets, along with their coordinating dies! These are perfect for creating cards for my music-loving friends and family members, and I can already imagine getting a lot of use from them. They’re also fantastic for making masculine cards!

I love how Mimi creatively used the coordinating dies of Music Magic (Chapter 1) as stencils! She die-cut the guitar and heart, then ink-blended them in a pastel rainbow palette. Next, she stamped the images slightly offset from the blended areas with black ink for a striking effect. To add more interest, she randomly stamped the confetti squares and used the Melodic Tunes Stencil 360 to stencil in some music notes.

The bold die-cut sentiment comes from the Music Heals stand-alone dies. I especially love the silver glitter and the glittery stars she added to the accessory images for the extra sparkle!

Now, let’s take a look at Candice’s stunning card! She stamped the instrument silhouettes from Music Magic (Chapter 2) in crisp black ink, creating a striking contrast against her gorgeously ink-blended background. The smooth gradient of colors she used really enhances the drama of the silhouettes, making each instrument pop!

Next we have Eileen’s creations. I love this encouragement card especially how she layered the images from Music Magic (Chapter 2) around a rectangular gold frame, creating a stunning 3D effect!

Eileen also made a gorgeous shaker card. She stamped the instrument silhouettes in Versafine Vintage Sepia directly onto the card base, and I love the sequins and glitter she added for extra sparkle. The sentiment, “Compose Your Destiny,” from Music Magic (Chapter 1), pairs beautifully with this card. The gold rectangle adds an elegant finishing touch!


I created a simple card by randomly stamping the musical instrument silhouettes from the Music Magic Chatper 2 stamp set, using Versafine black ink, then added the bold Music Heals die-cut using blue glitter cardstock, paired with silver holographic cardstock for the shadow. To finish, I embellished it with matching sapphire-colored gems.

This bold yet elegant stamp set is perfect for music-themed cards, and the black silhouettes lend themselves particularly well to masculine cards!

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s inspirations! It’s been such a fun week! Be sure to join us again tomorrow as we wrap up our Winter Release Inspiration Week and announce the lucky winners of our Giveaways!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a lovely day!

Winter release inspiration week Day 4 Sunbird Spark

Winter Release Inspiration Week & Giveaway – Day 4

Welcome back to Sunbird Spark’s Winter Release Inspiration Week – Day 4! Make sure to leave a comment below AND on the rest of our Inspiration Week’s blog posts to play along (more on how to play along on our Giveaway HERE!) for your chance to win our best-selling Stencils 360°™ Friends Ed. stenciling tool!

Today we’re spotlighting a super fun and verstaile stamp set – Sweet Delights! These adorable images include ice cream, macarons, cupcakes, sundaes and more! They will add a tasty touch to your cards and scrapbook pages!



Let’s take a look at Candice’s creation! I absolutely love how she used vibrant colors to really showcase these sweet desserts. The bold, eye-catching hues bring the desserts to life, making them feel super appealing. By using such rich colors, she not only adds energy to the card but also draws attention to the details of the images!


Ann created a sweet card by focusing entirely on the cupcake images! The way she arranged the cupcakes creates a balanced and pleasing composition, drawing the eye naturally across the card. Each cupcake image stands out, yet they all work together harmoniously! The thoughtful color matching ties the entire design together, giving the card a cohesive and polished look.

I thought, why not stamp these sweet images with our latest ink collection and make a card set of 4! It’s the perfect way to showcase these adorable designs using beautiful soft color palettes! As you can see, I combined colors from various seasonal palettes, and they still look amazing together!

The way these inks are curated makes it so easy—the colors not only work perfectly within their own seasonal palettes but also blend seamlessly across different palettes, taking the guesswork out of it.

For each card, I chose a different sentiment from the set and paired them with the coordinating new collection of patterned paper. I love how effortlessly these ink colors match with the patterned paper, creating a cohesive and refreshing look!


I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s inspirations! Be sure to come back tomorrow as we’ll share more cool cards with you!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a lovely day!

Winter Release Inspiration Week & Giveaway – Day 3

Welcome back to Sunbird Spark’s Winter Release Inspiration Week – Day 3! If you’re just joining us, don’t miss your chance to win our best-selling Stencils 360°™ Friends Ed. stenciling tool in this Inspiration Week! Please make sure you leave a comment below AND on the rest of our Inspiration Week’s blog posts to play along (more on how to play along on our Giveaway HERE!).

Today we’ll start off by showcasing the Sunburst Floral Stencils 360°™. If you like floral designs, you we absolutely fall in love with this stencil set!  Start with the 6″ sunburst floral, add accents from the 4″ stencils for more overlays, adding intricate details and visual texture.  If you prefer a bolder and bigger pattern, start with the 8″ stencil in the background to build more dimensions in your design.  This set makes beautiful home décor and greeting cards for every occasion!

Take a look at Ann’s stunning creation, inspired by the beauty of sunflowers. The vibrant colors and the carefully coordinated gems in the center add a perfect touch of elegance. The black heat-embossed sentiment, from the Inside Sentiments (Cards for Donation) clear stamps set, complements the background beautifully, giving the entire piece a sophisticated finish.

For my project, I decided to create a piece of home décor. I used Rosea and Mistflower from the Summer Palette to design a soothing floral pattern with a light, ethereal feel. To add a modern twist, I used the Smile stand-alone die and spaced out the letters. I absolutely love the ultra-soft tones these inks provide, giving the piece a gentle, calming vibe.

Next, we are spotlighting the new Musical Keyboards Stand-Alone dies.

This stand-alone die is your go-to die for a quick and simple card! Perfect for adding whimsical musical elements to your projects!

To highlight this die cut, I created a duo of cards. I decided to give them some contrast by designing one in the classic color of a grand piano and the other with a vibrant array of rainbow hues. To add a touch of shine, I used the Music Heals stand-alone dies with holographic cardstocks for that extra sparkle!

What are your thoughts? Which color palette do you prefer?

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s inspirations! Be sure to come back tomorrow as we highlight more wonderful projects!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a lovely day!
