Happy Wednesday! We're on the final day of Release week at The Rabbit Hole Designs. This week's April release includes 5 stamp sets, 3 die sets and one stencil. For my card today I used the Starfish in the Sand stamp and a couple of pieces from the Beachin' set & dies!
This set is 1 good size stamp, the bunny and the surrounding beachy fun-ness are all 1 stamp. I stamped the whole thing on Kraft cs, then I re-stamped the bunny part on some white cs for Copics. I colored the shells & eggs with colored pencils, and colored the bunny with Copics. I cut the bunny out, the shape is nice and easy to cut, then I took the chisel end of a black Copic and went over the cut edges so that there weren't any "white" edges.
I recently ordered these great great gel pens from Pear Blossom Press, I used the Silver to color in the rocks/pebbles and the white for some sand speckles and on the shells. These pens are fantastic!! The ink flow is phenom!! Finally I took the sentiment from the Beachin set and stamped it on my pink tag. I also took the seashell stamp, stamped and colored it then used the coordinating die. The shell is popped up on the end of my tag.
Well that's it for me, here's the complete hop list for today... be sure to pop by and visit the rest of the team!

Happy Monday! We're kicking off Release week at The Rabbit Hole Designs and it is totally Beachin'! This week's April release includes 5 stamp sets, 3 die sets and one stencil. For my card today I used the Beachin' set and the coordinating dies.
The main image of the set is actually a very nice size, but I cut mine down and only used the right 1/2 of the image. I stamped and then die cut my image and colored it in with Copics.
On the far left, see those 2 shells popped up? Those are extra images in the stamp set (and there are dies for them too!) . I used them to cover up the corned of the sunglasses that were still part of my cropped image. Also, this whole piece (hat & starfish) is popped up on Kraft cs.
The seashell and the flower on the bottom right corner are also extra images (and also have dies), I colored them, die cut them and popped them up also. The sentiment is from this set too (it has a few really great sents!). The card still seemed a little plain to me so I stamped a few more of those small flowers here and there with some Kraft ink. Voila! Easy peasy Beachin' squeezy! lol
Well that's it for me, here's the complete hop list for today... be sure to pop by and visit the rest of the team!

Happy Friday! Any fun plans for the weekend? This is my final entry for the Spring Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. If you haven't checked out all of the amazing Caffeinated inspiration, be sure to do so! This is a new stamp set called Spring Coffee, and it's part of the April release from The Rabbit Hole Designs, releasing in a couple of days!
A couple of days ago I did this up in pinks and sage greens, today I tried out a Blue/Blue Violet and bright green combo. I recently got these slimline dies from Dare 2B Artzy and I've been dieing to play with them! This was the perfect time to bring them out, I love the "overflowing" image! I just love how flexible this set is! Well, thanks for popping by, be sure to tune in on Monday for the NEW April release from The Rabbit Hole Designs!

Happy Wednesday! So?!?!?!????? Are you totally in LOVE with our new artist?? Yeah, me too. Today I made a card set to send to a friend using the Hip Hop Squad set, coordinating dies and some of our new paper!
I only had time to whip up 4 cards for my set, but you could easily make a card for each color... these cards are quick and great for assembly line making! Just look at all of those fab colors!
I stuck with the 4 colors from my papers for the card bases, the egg colors, etc. This helped me make things a little quicker so I wasn't spending time choosing colors (which can sometimes take me forever! lol). I did add some greens to accent the flower leaves. So first off I colored up my bunnies using Copics. I didn't do any patterns on the eggs, because again I was trying to keep this kind of streamlined, but I did add some rhinestones to the green egg and some confetti things to the pink egg.
Once my bunnies were colored and die cut out (yep, those coordinating dies are AWESOME!) I just layed them on my white base so I could place my "window". The frame of my window is the same cs as my card base, I also used the window die on the white so the floral paper would show through. I stamped one of the sentiments from the set in the lower right corners using a dark gray ink. The white scallop base piece is popped up from the floral, as is the bunny!
I took a scrap piece from the floral paper and added it inside and stamped the "Happy Easter" in the same dark gray ink. I really love how cute these turned out and how quickly they all came together!
Finally, I stacked up the colored envelopes and the cards and tied a pretty ribbon around them all. Oh, so not only are these super cute, but they are flat-ish meaning no extra postage! and yes I did include stamps on the envies so they are ready to address and send!
Well that's it for me, thanks for popping by! Remember the whole new release is available in the TRHD store NOW!

Holy snickerdoodles do we have a lineup for you today!!! First of all, if you've come here from the uber-talented Seeka's blog, then you're right on track! If you've come to my blog other than via the TRHD Hop, then you'll want to be sure to follow the hop list at the bottom of this post. This is a crazy-exciting release for TRHD, as they are announcing a fantastic new artist, Tatsiana! For the March release (which is available NOW in the TRHD store!) there are 6 new stamp sets and 5 coordinating dies, 2 new paper packs, a new bunny bag and a Limited Edition Ephemera pack (by Tatsiana!) There's a whole buncha awesomeness in the line up (scroll down to check out the awesome names hoping with us today!). For my card today I used the Spring Delivery set and coordinating die along with the Clouds in my Coffee stencil (which is currently on sale!).
I had so much fun coloring with this one! Remember the Clouds in My Coffee stencil from a few months ago? Well as soon as I saw this scooter-dude I couldn't stop thinking about those clouds for a background! I used Tumbled Glass & Stormy Sky Oxide inks along with my Cotton Tail Blending Brushes (and my little color clips from Make It by Marko) for my clouds. I used a few Copic markers for the grass, then went over it all with some Peeled Paint Oxide ink to fill in the white a little.
I colored up the Bunny's scooter and his pretty flowers with Copics, adding a few teeny rhinestones to the flower centers. Once it was all colored I used the coordinating die to "cut" him out.
I made a little boo-boo on my bunny so I decided to paper piece him instead of coloring him. Just to make his face pop a little, I added a blue rhinestone for his eye.
For the sentiment I used a chat bubble die and stamped it in the middle. It seemed a little plain to me still so I inked up the flowers in the basket with some of the Tumbled Glass ink (it's very close the color of the cs). It just adds a little bit of a textured look, so it doesn't look so flat.
Well that's it for me, your next stop is my wonderful teamie, Tanna. Incase you need it, here's the complete hop list for today (didn't I tell ya there was a fab lineup?!?!?).

Happy, happy weekend! Hope you have some time this weekend for a little creative escape time! For my Sketch Saturday card this week I used the Friendship is a Blessing stamp set (Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps) and a new (to me) "hello" die (Simon Says).
This was just a quick card, but you could do so many cool things with this sketch! I replaced the "heart" with a tag die for my sentiment. Pop on over to the Sketch Saturday blog to see some more inspiration for this sketch, and don't forget to link up your own creation! Thanks for popping by, hope to see you again soon!

Happy February and happy, happy weekend!!! This week's Sketch Saturday layout is a super fun one! I grabbed the Choose Happy stamp set (Simon Says Stamp) and the Coffee paper pad (Echo Park).
For the 3 lower boxes I chose a couple of the sentiments and shapes and stamped in WOW Embossing ink with White ep. The coffee cup is from the set as well, I stamped it on patterned paper and cut it out. On the coffee bean paper I stamped the cup image with the steam and embossed in white ep again (it's a little hard to see here). Then I popped up the cup.
The larger sentiment in the upper right is just stamped with some Amalgam Black (Gina K), this is my absolute favorite crisp black ink for sentiments! Then I stamped some hearts from the set in red just to fill some white space (I really do sometimes wish White & I were better friends! lol).
Well that's all I've got for ya this week, be sure to check out what the rest of the team has created for you and don't forget to link up your own creation, we'd LOVE to see what you do with our sketch!

Happy Wednesday! It's day 3 of The Rabbit Hole Designs February Release Hop and today we have a super cool stencil! This is called the Corner Mandala stencil and it is FABULOUS!
I decided to foil mine. I taped my stencil in to place and then slathered some Transfer Gel all over my stencil. After letting the gel dry for about an hour (per the instructions on the jar), I then layered my Rainbow Deco foil over the top and then ran it through a hot laminator. One bit of advice I have, do a thin layer of paste and keep the layer as even as possible... this will give you cleaner foil/stencil lines.
This is kind of a wonky view but it shows the foiling pretty well. Once I decided which part of the stencil I wanted to use, I trimmed it down to 4.125" square. This stencil is 6" x 6", I could have easily cut the foiled piece in to 4 3" squares and made a cute 4 pack of cards! The sentiment is one of my favorite phrases, and it's from the Sassy Sentiments set. I also added a colored in heart using the Open Heart stencil.
Well that's it for me, here's the complete hop list for today... be sure to pop by and visit the rest of the team!

Happy Tuesday! Today's release hop is showing off the new 1 Line Happy Easter! Oh my gosh, so many fun possibilities for this stamp!! For today I just made a simple card.
Scroll down to see the actual set. I stamped the image on white and colored it in with Copics, then I trimmed off the part below the line and his paws. I did edge the bottom in black just so it showed better. Then layered that over a floral paper.
Next I stamped the sentiment in Lagoon ink. I used the Open Heart stencil to color in 3 hearts (colored with Copics) and added little rhinestones to the hearts. Finally I added a twine bow to her ear. I just love how this turned out!

Happy weekend! Happy BIRTHDAY weekend! lol It's day 2 of the TRHD Birthday & Misti Collab hop and today we're inking up some cute lil bunny's! This set is called Je t'amie and I've paired it up with the new Open Heart stencil.
I stamped my lil Bunny fru-fru's on my main panel and them masked them off. I got my stencil in position and then using my Cotton Tail Blending brushes and some Candied Apple Oxide ink I added my background. I am loving my colored clips on my Blending brushes, by Make It By Marko! Next I colored in the bunnies with Copics.
I've used a MISTI for years and I LOVE it. I'm a visual person and I have to see things, sometimes when I want to stamp a sentiment in a color (not black) it doesn't show as well as I'd hoped. So this is another reason I love my MISTI. See below, I placed my sentiment on the MISTI and then inked it up with my red ink. Then I almost closed the lid... not touching the paper yet, but enough that I could see that my red ink would indeed show as well as I wanted. I finished stamping the sentiment on the panel.
I love the black mat behind my white panel, but it was still a little plain to me so I took all 3 heart stamps from the Je t'amie set and some white ink and stamped a kind of wonky border pattern all around. Perfect!!
Finally I added some of those same hearts to the white panel with WOW Embossing ink and some WOW Carousel embossing powder.
Well that's it for me, here's the complete hop list for today... be sure to pop by and visit the rest of the team!
