When I sat down with the kit, I used the Here Comes the Sun stamp set and coordinating dies to create a whole bunch of happy sunshines to use on projects. There are several styles of sun rays. Three of them fit into the larger circle die and the burst styles both fit into the same burst die. I stamped all of my sun rays with Pineapple and Candy Corn inks, sometimes creating blend with the two colors. You can either stamp the center of the sun or use the coordinating die. I did a combination of both and added the cheeks with Cupcake ink and stamped the faces with Oreo ink.

This first card features one of the sunburst sunshines. I added the sunshine to a cloudy background that I created with the Rotating Cloud Stencil that I stenciled just once on Toffee cardstock with Toffee ink and the larger stencil from the Cloudy Days Masking Stencil set that I stenciled with Sugar Cube ink. The 'hey sunshine' sentiment from the Shine So Bright stamp set is stamped under the sunshine and I added extra twinkle to the sun rays with yellow and orange tiny diamonds. Two thin frames cut out from Toffee cardstock with the A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate die complete the card design.

This next card is the mini slim size and has a line up of three sunshines! They are added to a background that is stenciled with several clouds from the Cloudy Days Masking Stencil set using Sugar Cube ink on Sprinkles cardstock. I tucked a few clouds around the suns that are cut out with the Rainbow Cloud Duo stamp set and added the 'you brighten my day' sentiment  from the Shine So Bright stamp set.

I filled up this last card with six different sunshines! I tucked clouds all around them that are cut out with the Stitched Cloud Duo dies along with Bits & Pieces - Clear Drip Drops. The 'you shine so bright' sentiment is from the Shine So Bright stamp set and the whole card is framed with a thin frame cut out with the A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate die from Sugar Cube cardstock.
