Hello Friend

Hello Friends and Happy Monday

Today I am excited to be sharing another card for The Rabbit Hole Designs.  I love the sweet Hello Friend image illustrated by Dustin Pike.

 

I started by Copic coloring the adorable image and then adding glitter to the wings of the little bee.  I used the Cottontail embossing powder tool then stamped and heat emblossed the sentiment.  I used the Amanda stencil for my background and ink blended some distress oxide ink lightly over the whole stencil then using the bitty bunny blending brushes added more ink so the leaves would stand out. I timmed the stenciled background to fit on a mini slimline card front and added a white frame.

Don't you think this images is just the cutest?

Until Next Time

You're the Best

Happy Monday Friends, Today I am sharing a card featuring some of the smaller stamps in the Flower Whale stamp set from The Rabbit Hole Designs.  I also used a sentiment from the Thanks Scripty stamp set.

 

Often times I seem to overlook smaller stamps in a stamp set but I challenged myself to use only some of the smaller images for my card today. This is a pretty clean and simple card for me. 

Here are steps I took to make this card:

1. Stamp images with copic friendly ink
2. Color the flowers with R81, R83, R85 and Y11
3. Color the leaves with YG01, YG23 and YG17
4. Die cut images using the coordinating dies
5. Stamp sentiment in the center of your card base
6. Arrange the flowers and leaves in a circle around your sentiment and glue in place
7. Add gems

 

Do you use the small stamps in a set on their own?

Until next Time

Flower Whale

Isn't this Flower Whale stamp set the most gorgeous whale you ever have seen?  It was designed by Tatsiana Zayats for The Rabbit Hole Designs.

I had so much fun creating this Birthday card and here are the steps in case you'd like to create one too.

I cut a rectangle using the largest die from the Outside In Stitched rectangles from Lawn Fawn.  Then I used distress oxide ink to blend the background and slattered it with water and liquid stardust.  Next I stamped and die cute the images from the Flower Whale stamp set and colored them using copic markers.  I cut out the Birthday Scripty Die from lavender cardstock and used a white gelly roll pen to add details.  I figured out where all my die cut pieces would go and stamps the word wishes from the Birthday scripty stamp set and finally adhered my images.  I used foam tape behind a couple of the images.  As always if you have any questions please let me know.

What do you think, does it look like the whale is trying to blend in to her surroundings?  

 

Until Next Time

 

Thank you for being Mermazing

Happy Monday it's time for another card featuring Stamps and dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs.

I love mermaids and this adorable stamp set Harley Merbunny is so cute and made the perfect thank you card.

I watercolored on regular cardstock by mistake and as you can see the paper started to pill up.  I kinda liked the texture it added to this panel so I decided to go with it.  Next I  colored the bunny with Copic markers and die cut it with the coordinating dies. Once the watercolored panel was dry I stamped the sentiment and added the the image with foam squares. Finally I glued the panel to a note card and added sequins.

 

If you make a mistake while crafting do you throw it away or try to make it work?  

Until Next Time

Masculine Happy Birthday Card

Today I am sharing my first official card as a Brand Ambassador for The Rabbit Hole Designs. 

The stamp set is called Clarence Birthday. How handsome is Clarence?  I am always trying to come up with masculine birthday cards and this stamp set fits the bill perfectly.

I created the tag for this card using the Bitty Bunny Blending Brushes along with the Amanda Stencil and distress oxide inks.  Clarence and his cake are colored with Copic Markers and then die cut with the coordinating die. I also stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the same set and white heat embossed it on black cardstock.  Can I just say the Cottontail Embossing Powder Tool is amazing and if you don't already own one you should definately give it a try!

Head on over to The Rabbit Hole Designs to see more ways to use these products. If you happen purchase anything I would love to see what you create.

Do you struggle with Masculine cards or do they come easy to you?  

 

Until Next Time
