So, to start off I stamped my Cupcake Bouquet image onto 80lb Neenah cardstock with Memento Tuxedo black ink. I kept my stamp in my Misti because ill be stamping it again.

I colored it with copics in pink,teal, lavender & lime green. 
Once done I put my image back into the MISTI and re-stamped it with Versafine Onyx & I used  Ranger clear Embossing powder on top to give it a nice black shine.
I did the same for the sentiment. 
 I cut a panel using Trinity stamps A2 Quilted Cover plate (an older die but a good one) and has a coordinating stencil (sold separately) to add to those opened areas.
I die cut out the cupcake & sentiment & I added foam tape to the back of them. 
I then adhered it to my panel which was now mounted onto 110lb Neenah cardstock from cutcardstock
After everything was done I added a wee bit of Star Dust stickles to the centers of the cross hatch patterns for a bit of bling as well as the flowers. 
Its hard to capture in pics but IRL its sparkling!
I created an identical card with a different background & sentiment for an extra card to have on hand. We can never have too many birthday cards right? I added Trinity Stamps Unicorn Tears for my gems. I use them ALOT!

Floral Frame 5x7 Card

Hi friends! For todays card I am creating my very 1st 5x7 card. 
I'm using Scrappy Tails Crafts A7 Flower Cover plate die.
To start off I die cut the flower border from 110lb Neenah cardstock from Cutcardstock. 
The next step was to die cut the shadow layer. 
So I used the outer layer die and the inner die for that.
Then I colored my flowers and glued it to my shadow layer and then die cut THANK YOU FRIEND" 3x and stacked them up. I die cut the word shadows from 48lb Vellum from Cutcardstock as well.
Once that was done I glued it down to rough textured cardstock. 
I die cut 2 vellum leaves and stuck them under "for your kindness"
I added my panel to a black cardbase (130lb Epic Black cardstock) and some black splatter to the rough panel.
 The last step was adding iridescent gems to the flowers, shimmer and white gel pen to them as well.

Popping Poppies Heart Card

Hi Friends! Do you love flowers?  The Popping Poppies stamp from Scrappy Tails is so beautiful.  
I paired it with the Scalloped Heart Add on die set for the chocolate heart box.
To start off I die cut 3/4 of the pierced heart onto Savoy 100% Cotton Bright white from Cutcardstock.  Then I used an Embossing Folder on it. Then set it aside. 
Next I stamped my images onto Accent 120lb cardstock (because that white, it matched the heart) and colored them with Copics RV52,R81,R83,R85 & YG03,YG25 & YG17 & then die cut them out.
Next I stamped the poppy onto my 120lb Accent cardbase with Rainy Day ink from SBC. Then I added foam tape to the back of my heart & mounted it onto the cardbase. 
Then I glued my leaves directly to the heart & I added foam tape to the poppies. I adhered them down. I added some white gel pen to the poppy centers.
The last thing I did was add a foiled sentiment, some Wink if Stella to the flowers and some Fortune Teller baubles.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Heart Shaped Card with Scrappy Tails Crafts

Hi guys! Im here today featuring Scrappy Tails Crafts Scalloped Heart Add-On For Chocolate Heart Gift Box die set. Scrappy Tails makes alot of 3d craft dies but they can be used as a regular die like I do!

To start of I took the 2nd largest die and die cut teal cardstock folded in half and left 1/2" of the die off the cardstock to create a hinge. 
Thats my cardbase. I sprayed it with Shimmer spray for extra sparkle. Then I took the next smaller die (scalloped heart) and I die cut Stardream Pluto Cardstock from cutcardstock. Its a 126lb opal shimmer cardstock.  Its gorgeous. I glued it to my cardbase.
The next smaller heart die has holes like the cardbase and I die cut Distress watercolor cardstock with that one. I did ink smooshing with Distress re-inkers in Peacock Feathers, Twisted Citron & Shaded Lilac on it. Once dried I stamped XOXO & Happy Valentine's day in dark gray ink. I added some Moonstone Glimmer paste for texture & shine and let it dry. 
Then I used white embroidery thread and stitched along the holes. I added foam tape to the back of the heart and adhered it to the base. I stamped my Sentiment in Archival ink on that Stardream Pluto Cardstock and trimmed it down.
I added gems along the scallops just to make it extra special. This card is for my daughter so I put a lil extra bling on it. 
I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by. Stay crafty my friends!🎨✂️🖌🖍

Scrappy Tails Intricate Heart Spinner Add-On used as a regular die!

Hi Friends! For todays card I used a spinner add on as a regular die from Scrappy Tails Crafts. The spinner add ons dont have to be used as spinners but also as regular dies. Its such a beautiful die that I wanted it to be the star of the show for todays card.
To start off I die cut the heart with Distress watercolor cardstock. I grabbed my Nuvo shimmer powders in Violet Brocade and sprinkled in on top. Then I sprayed it with water and repeated until I liked the way it looked. Then I let it dry on its own. While drying I die cut my heart 3 more times and glued them together. I took the heart shadow die and die cut heavyweight vellum from Cutcardstock
Then I took a mesh style Embossing Folder and ran that through my die cut machine. I used my Master layouts 1 & 2 to create the stiched mat & the layers from lavender cardstock from Bazzill. I looked for cardstock that matched closely to my Shimmer powder die cut.
After I glued everything together and add my vellum shadow layer i only added glue to the back where the die cut what showing through. I wanted to make sure the glue didnt squish out and be exposed. I added a sentiment along the bottom with fosm tape underneath for dimension. 
To finish the card off I grabbed some flat back pearls that matched (blue-ish purple) and added them to the centers of the florals. Its such a diverse beautiful die that gives a beautiful look to any card!
Thanks so much for stopping by. Stop by Scrappy tails crafts for more products & inspiration from the Design team!

Day 2 The Rabbit Hole New Release Hop

 Hello Rabbit Hole Friends! Its Day 2 of the New Release hop & I'm definitely feeling a rainbow vibe. For todays cards I'm using simply the Friend stamp for both

To start off I used The image of the woman and positioned it in the MISTI so I could just shift my cardstock and repeat stamping easily. I used Catherine Pooler inks for every color. Rockin Red, Orange Peel, Tiara, Grass Skirt, Aquatini, Suede Shoes, Royal Treatment & Pixie Dust. I then stamped my "Friend" & sentiment in Versafine Onyx ink. Then I used a Black Glaze Gelly Roll pen for my black splatter which I applied manually. Lastly I added some iridescent gems for some sparkle. 

I added foam tape to my panel and mounted in to my 110lb Neenah card base from Cutcardstock. For my 2nd identical card I used the man image and did the same thing but I used a black mat under my panel and I added some Pops of Color in Clear & Snowflake.


I hope you like these cards & you check out the new release! The next hop is  Deana-

Rainbow Flower Whale-TRHD NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP!

 Hi Guys! Thanks so much for stopping by to celebrate The Rabbit Hole Newest Release. This is part of a Blog hop & I'm using "Flower Whale" for my card today along with the Friend Stamp.



To start off I grabbed some Judikins Masking Paper and I ripped 2 pieces and laid it across my 80lb Neenah cardstock from Cutcardstock.
Then I used Distress inks and my Rabbit Hole Bitty Brushes to create the rainbow blend. I used Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers & Wilted Violet.
I love the Rabbit Holes Bitty Blending Brushes. The price point is awesome & they have strings to hang them. I hang mine on a large O-ring.
After my inks were dry I removed the masking paper and I stamped the Flower Whale in Versafine Onyx & I used Clear Embossing Powder/
Once I heat set that & it was done I used Copic markers in C01,C02,C03 to color the areas of the whale outside the rainbow strip.
I then Stamped the word "Friend" which is new in the release and fussy cut that out & propped it up with foam tape. 
I hand drew the wiggly border lines and added some Pops of color Drops in Snowflake.
I hope you like it. The next stop in the blog hop is Deana-

Clarence Loves YOU! Ink Spray Fun

 Hi Guys! Kelly Fusco here with my very 1st blog post for The Rabbit Hole Designs featuring the Clarence & Clarice Stamp.

To start off I stamped my image onto 80lb Neenah cardstock from Cutcardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Then I colored in the image with copic markers. I used C05,C03,C01 & C0 I used a couple browns E31,E33 & E35. Then I took the Garden Trellis stencil and I sprayed it with distress spray stains (red,yellow,blue) in a rainbow order across my panel. I removed the stencil & went over it again with the coordinating colors in distress inks using my Bitty Blenders so the white wasn't too bright white. 
I originally had the stencil on a diagonal so that created these white stripes where the stencil border was. I added a few black dots to it 
I colored in the background of my image with Copic 100. I die cut it out with a scalloped oval die and colored the scalloped edges gray to match Clarence. I added foam tape to the back of my focal image & I die cut the word YOU and colored it to match the rainbow theme.
Its hard to see in pics but I added some glossy accents to his eyes, teeth, cheeks and the "LOVE" as well as the "YOU"
I took a black copic marker and went around the edges of my rainbow panel for a bit of definition. 
I added a few iridescent gems and I was done. I hope you like this card.

Hi Friends! For my 2nd card for The Rabbit Holes Birthday Hop I'm using the Clarence & Clarice stamp. 
To start off I stamped my image with Memento black ink onto 80lb Neenah Cardstock from Cutcardstock. 
I used my copics to color them and I drew a line on the ground with a Memento Marker. I then ripped the edges and added a bit of black from a blending foam pad (whatever was on it already). 
Then I grabbed a piece of heavyweight Vellum (48lb) also from Cutcardstock and I ripped that too.
I die cut the word "Love" from The Rabbit Hole and stacked it 3x. Colored with copics to match and added Star Dust stickles & then Glossy accents on top. Those 2 together look AMAZINGLY COOL!
I then took a 100lb Desert Storm Neenah card base (also from Cutcardstock) and I used The Rabbit hole Garden Trellis stencil and White pigment ink for the background and heat set it. 
Then I glued the vellum down (not the outer edges) and then added foam tape to my image panel. I adhered it all down and added "My Sweet" and "Love" to it. 
I added glossy accents to the heart, their eyes, ears, teeth & tongues. A bit if stickles to the skirt & bow. A few iridescent gems and thats it.
