Hugs Card with the Bug You Stamp Set

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the blog; it's Rick back with you today.  And I am sharing a super cute little card that I made using the Bug You Stamp Set from The Rabbit Hole Designs. This cute little set was designed by Agota Pop for the Rabbit Hole. 


Bug You Checkered Past Hug Card by Rick Adkins Over Head View

My card today features not only the Bug You Stamp Set from the latest Rabbit Hole Designs release, but also the Checkered Past 6 x 6 Stencil as well. I also used the Mini Hot Foil Plate which is part of the March 2024 Promo for the Rabbit Hole Designs. 


You can get both Mini Hot Foil Die and a randomly selected pack of the Rabbit Hole's fabulous Enamel Dot for free with $25.00 Purchase (before tax & Shipping and after discounts). To get the March Promo you must add March 2024 Promo to your cart. And if cart is eligible the March Promo item will be added. Sweet deal right!


I created the background of my card using some kraft cardstock and the Checkered Past 6 x 6 Stencil. Since I used colored cardstock I went with my distress oxide inks in a monochromatic color pallet to be able to add color through the Checkered Past Stencil. The stencil is designed to be turned two ways, but I actually turned it four times to fill in the cardstock with color.

While waiting on the ink to dry I went ahead and heated up my hot foil machine.  Because I knew I was going to use the Mini Hot Foil Plate (which is part of the March 2024 Promo) and I was going to use the Hugs Scripty Word Hot Foil Plate for my sentiment.  Once my hot foil machine was nice and ready I could add the Mini Hot Foil Plate to my focal panel and the Hugs sentiment to my card front.  


To finish off the card I colored up my super cute little lady bug from the Bug You Stamp Set with some colored pencils.  I also colored the inside of the hot foiled flowers as well.  And added it to the card front along with my Checkered Past background panel.  I finished off the card by adding a few of the Clear Sparkle Enamel Dots around the hot foiled sentiment.  


Thanks for dropping by today, you can find an entire supply list for everything that I used over on my blog.  I have linked all the supplies from the Rabbit Hole in this post.

Creating fun cards with no specialty dies!

 Hi friends!

Today I have a super fun card using The Rabbit Hole Designs newest release.  This set is called Ladybug.  I created a fun ladybug background using a circle punch and red and black cardstock.  I also created some stitching using a white and black gel pen.  This step is optional but I think it gives the card some dimension and interest.  As the focal point, I used the sweet little image featuring a ladybug tucked in a group of flowers, stamping the sentiment under it.  



For an extra touch of flair, I added a piece to the back that I call "a wobble".  It gives the image dimension like foam tape but it also creates a wiggle affect when tapped.  I have a reel demonstrating this up on my Instagram.  Make sure to check it out!


 I challenge you to recreate this. Make sure to tag me @craftwithme101 and The Rabbit Hole Designs on Instagram if you do.

Grown Up Goals

Good Morning, MaryAnn here and just stopping by to say this post may not look like Jenn's normal post, this is because she had an unexpected event come up and asked me to fill in and get it posted for her.


 Hello crafty friends, Jenn here sharing  a cute and sassy mini slimline card. It states the very hard truth about adulting. The sentiment is from the Sassy Sentiments 2 stamp set and perfectly fits with the cute little napping ladybug from the New Ladybug stamp and coordinating die sets.
 
The background is stenciled using the New Checkered Past stencil with a light and dark yellow ink.  The squares are just offset enough to create a highlight and shadow.   The napping ladybug is colored with OLO markers and added to a square printed cardstock with a second solid yellow square cardstock.  Both are offset and glued into place mimicking the stenciled background.

Now here's a bit of fun technique to try with The Rabbit Hole Designs' Matte White Enamel Dots. I colored each dot with a red prismacolor pencil and added polkadots with a  black ink pen.  This add a bit of fun to the background while also repeating the ladybug design.

Supplies use:
Ladybug stamp set 
Ladybug coordinating dies
Sassy sentiment 2 stamp set
Checkered Past stencil 
Matte White Enamel Dots 

Thank you for stopping by to check out today's cute and sassy mini slimline card. I hope you are inspired to create something lovely today!
