Snowflake Snowperson Ornament

 


I wanted to create an ornament for our Christmas Tree. I used the 1 Line Snowperson set. The snowman was watercolored and glitter glue was added to add sparkle. To create a look of falling down a hill I moved the line from the 1 Line Snowperson down. The snowflake is one of those cuts you learn to do when you are little. I added bits and pieces of ribbon, glitter glue, chunky glitter, jute, and Retro Christmas paper scraps.

Dream of Happy Accidents - Succulent Life Stamp Showcase


This card was created with the September release from The Rabbit Hole Designs called SUCCULENT LIFE (TRH-182). It’s by the talented Tatsiana Zayats. The set includes two different images of succulent terrariums and 4 sentiments! 

I really wanted to try gold heat embossing on gold mirror cardstock. I decided to give it a go! I started by prepping my gold mirrored cardstock with the Cottontail Embossing Powder Tool. I was really generous with the tool, because mirrored cardstock tends to be full of static. As I was heat embossing I realized my mirrored cardstock turned iridescent when I heat it. WHAT A HAPPY ACCIDENT THAT WAS!!!!!! Here is a close-up of where I could capture that rainbow of colors!

The green alcohol-looking background is from the set Getting Inky Paper from TRHD. The kraft piece is part of my grocery store bag with some ink and colored wax. Remember to play with whatever is close to you on your crafty area and have fun!

Let's Shell-Ebrate! A2 Card

 



For my second post this month, I have colored the stunning Shell-Ebrate clear stamp from The Rabbit Hole Designs.  I colored this image using my Copic markers and then decided an epic stamp needs an epic background...am I right?  All I had to do after that was stamp the sentiment included in the set and add some clear bling!

Succulent Life


This card was created with the September release from The Rabbit Hole Designs! I love plants, but succulents are really hard for me to keep alive! So, I knew I could enjoy these the most. LOL!!! The set is called SUCCULENT LIFE (TRH-182) it’s by the talented Tatsiana Zayats. It includes two different images of succulent terrariums and 4 sentiments!
 

I loved working with this stamp set, I loved that I got to color in some of the succulents as some of my favorite types of succulents. I watercolored these guys and mixed some greens, purples, teals and fuschia. You might recognize the golden foil strip, it is from last month’s release, it’s called: Amanda’s foil plate. I felt that the card needed a bit more of interest on the background so I used the TCW Stardust Stencil butter with my fingertips.

Succulent Life Notebook Cover

 

Hello everyone, Leah here to share my first ever The Rabbit Hole Designs project with you today!  I have used the newly released Succulent Life stamp set to create a notebook cover for my THRD notes :)

I colored the stamped image with my Copic markers and layered it over some washi tape and a scrap of linen.  For the background, I used the Triangle Mosaic Stencil with some inks over some patterned paper to give it some depth and interest.  I also stamped 3 of the sentiments from the stamp set.  The background patterned paper had some text on it, so the 3 sentiments I also stamped fit right in but are bold enough to stand out.  Perfect!

Any Road Can Get You There! card


Clean and simple cards are sometimes a great way to bring a lot of emphasis to a card. For this card, I used a shaped die to create a cardstock stencil. Since I knew I would be doing white cups/saucers with red and black shapes. Picking the color for the background was easy.  Blue is such a nice color to ground your images, think of the sky and how everything looks nice against that blue sky. The image on this card is from the set TRH-176 Wonderland 2, designed by Dustin Pike, the sentiment is from the set TRH-178 Heard In Wonderland.

"Joy to the Squirrel"

 


Clarence is back and he is having a blast during our Christmas in July celebration! Of course, Clarence couldn't stop himself from playing with some snow and creating a snow-squirrel!  The Clarence Christmas set TRH-170 is a 4x6 set that includes three adorable and fun images of Clarence and two sentiments. 


Clarence was colored using watercolors. He is such a fun character to color. I added some highlights and lowlights to the tail to make it look furry. I kept the colors to match the retro palette of reds and teals. The background is one of the layers of the Mid-Century Modern #2 Stencil used with TCW's Stencil Butter (Pearl White)

Classic Merry Christmas

 



We are celebrating Christmas in July all month long! My first card using the 1 Line Reindeer set was this one. I wanted to create a look of an ornament with the classic red/green combination. 
This is how I created this card: Prepare the card base using the Cottontail Embossing Powder tool, and white heat embossed the 1 Line Reindeer stamp. Stamp the reindeer one more time on masking paper and cut the mask. Apply mask over the embossed image. Cut two more masks, one that goes above the horizontal stamped image and one that goes below it. Remove the top horizontal mask and using a circular motion blend the green ink to create the top of the ornament. Place the mask back on and remove the bottom mask and repeat now with the red ink. Wait for the ink to dry and then remove the reindeer mask. Color nose and add highlights after dried. To finish the card stamp the sentiment and apply golden bling. As a last minute decision, I decided to use a notching tool to create notches on all 4 corners of the card and wrap a red embroidery cord around it.

Embroidered Anemones


A new trend in card making is adding stitched elements to your cards. I gave it a go with some very loose French knots (You can catch a video tutorial at my youTube channel) where the anther or pollen of the flowers would be in the Blooming Anemone stamp (TRH-160). HINT: Use a thicker thread to create the knots. A thicker thread will stay in place and not go through the hole you create in the card to accommodate these.


This card features "Blooming Anemone" (TRH-160), which was stamped on Bristol smooth white cardstock and watercolored.  For the sentiment, we have a combination of "You Scripty" 3x4 stamp and it's coordinating die with shadow. This bridge card was stenciled with the Mesh - Optical Illusion Stencil and then splattered with gold watercolors.
