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. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

 Hi Rabbity Friends! Kelly Fusco here with a fun mixed media card featuring The Flower Whale Stamp from the Rabbit Hole Designs

To Start off I stamped the Flower Whale image onto 80lb Neenah cardstock from Cutcardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored my whale with Gray Copics and I used Teals, Blues & dark reddish browns THEN I added some shimmer pen to it as well.. 

For my panel I used a piece of Distress Watercolor cardstock and I wet it with a sprayer and then sprayed Blue, Light Blue & brown onto it . I added layers of colors and sometimes drying in between. After it was 100% dry I added some texture paste with a stencil for some dimension. I wanted it to look ocean-y. Is that a word? lol

Then I took my paper distresser and distressed the edges of the panel. I fussy Cut my whale out and I die cut the word "Love" and stacked it 3x high.

I added foam tape to the back of the whale and I curved my Love sentiment to curve along the top of the whale.

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.

Freestyle panel/Floral Bday card

Hi guys! Kelly here. For this card Im using Altenews "Beauty Within" Stamp & Die set. I have the coordinating stencil but I didn't use it or need it for this card. 

To start off I stamped my Images onto 80lb Neenah cardstock from Cutcardstock. I used Copics to "flick" color onto them. I used:

RV10,RV21,RV23 & RV25

V20,BV20,BV01,BV02 & BV13

BG10,BG23,BG45, & BG13

YG11,YG03,YG25 & YG17

the centers I used YR24 & YR27

Then I die cut everything out. 

Once I laid out how I wanted them to appear I used Press n Seal and press it onto my layout, flipped it over and added glue and foam tape so its 1 large arrangement. 

Now comes the FREESTYLE....I took another 80lb panel of Neenah and I used the CHISEL side of my black Copic and from the outside edge I swiped in like a brushstroke. I repeated that down the left side of my panel. 

I grabbed 3 copics from the flower colors and added dots to the panel. 

I then die cut this above panel with a rectangle embossed edge die from Kat Scrappiness. 

Then I glued it to my 110lb Neenah cardbase from Cutcardstock. I removed the liner from the foam tape and adhered it to my panel on my cardbase. I added a bit of shimmer pen and black glaze pen to the dotted centers.

Then I added my label sticker Sentiment. Done.

I was  going to add some gems but decided this card had enough going on. Thanks so much for stopping by!❤

Simple Coloring

Kelly Fusco here.... thesunshinecrafter here & thanks for stopping by.

I enjoy and appreciate color but I struggle with coloring, like many people. 

So for this card Im using the "flick" method. 

I used Gina K "Caring Flowers" stamp set & Waffle Flowers Deckled frames dies for this card. 

To start I stamped my image with Memento Tuxedo Black onto 110lb Neenah. I used copics:

BG11,BG32,BG34 & BG15 BV01,BV02 

RV21,RV23,RV25 

& a wee bit of YG13 for the leaves. 

Here you can see the flick coloring and for the stamen which got drowned out from the markers I added White Gelly Roll pen. When you color using flicks you leave some white space and you don't have to be perfect or worry about blending. Whoo hoo. Thats for me!

After I finished my coloring I used Versafine Onyx (pigment ink) for my sentiment and I added Hero Arts Clear Embossing powder on top, heated n melted it. 

I die cut my panel with the smaller deckle frame die and I used the full size for my black panel. Then I decided it was kind of plain. So I added white ink splatter. It cracked some when I die cut it but I like the look it gave to it. I also used a Black Glaze pen for some specific splatter.  

I mounted my main panel up on foam tape and I added a few clear Nuvo drops (Morning Dew). At the very end I added a bit of shimmer pen(Wink Of Stella)to the flower petals (hard to see in pics but in person its shimmery)

 Thats it. So easy!

I hope you like this card. I love these colors together and Im a sucker for a floral stamp. Thanks so much for stopping by & check out the shop for all these goodies and much more!

Hugs,

Kelly Thesunshinecrafter

Cutest Chubby Snowmen Ever!

 Art Impressions Chubby Snowmen is one of my favorite snowman stamp sets! I'm excited to show you this card.

To start off I took a strip of masking tape and sectioned off the bottom half of my panel which is 110lb Neenah cardstock.  I cut a freestyle mask for the ground as well. I used distress oxide inks in colors Chipped Sapphire & Blueprint sketch for the bottom. I splattered a bit of water for interest.

The top half of my panel I masked off in the middle vertically and I used faded jeans on the left and hickory smoke on the right. I added water splatter to these sections as well then I cut a thin piece of Holographic cardstock and glued it down on the trimmed borders. 

While that dried I stamped the images onto 110lb Neenah and colored them with copics.

I stamped my Sentiment with versamark and added white super fine Embossing  powder and heated it. 

I propped my images up on foam for dimension and adhered them to my panel.

I added white gel accents to my images and white "stars"  to the background with the gelly roll pen.

I also added some clear gelly roll pen for some extra shine. And some sparkle pen for the lights on the tree.

I had alot of fun creating this card & I hope you like it. 

Dark Background Stamping

 Hi, Thanks for stopping by! For this card I'm using SSS Autumn Leaves Stamp to create this card. I love leaves stamps and this one is a beauty.

I brightened this photo so you  can see the shimmer I added. Otherwise its not visible in pics.

To start off I stamped the leaves onto 110lb Neenah Cardstock with Tuxedo Black memento ink.

I colored them VERY simply with copic markers (2 or 3 shades of each color)

I then grabbed a dark blue and colored in the background. I made sure to use a marker I had a refill for and that was nice and filled. You don't want a streaky dry marker.😬

Once the background was done I sprayed it with my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SHIMMER Spray EVER! Sparkle Shimmer Spray. I spray it about 10 inches away from my panel and wave the panel into the spray mist to ensure a light even distribution of shimmer. Otherwise you are likely to get some droplets which I did not want for this project. Its really hard to see the sparkle in pics but in person its gorgeous!

Then I die cut THANK YOU from some Holographic cardstock and also die cut it from some Fun foam with Scrapbook.com double side adhesive on the back. 

I added some Trinity Stamps Bubble Bath Gems which are holographic and match perfectly to the sentiment.

I mounted my panel onto a piece of Martha Stewart Navy Cardstock which matched perfectly.

That's it. I hope you like this and thanks so much for stopping by! Stay safe, stay healthy & Stay Crafty my friends!🖍✏🖌🎨
