Sending Some Love Your Way

Hello crafty friends it's Rick back with you again today sharing another love themed card idea with you using the Cupid Clarence Stamp Set. Today's card features the left over foil from the last card that I shared with you. I ran the foil with the stamped outline of Clarence through my laminator with a toner sheet and attached it to a mat layer.

To finish off the card I simply picked one of the beautiful sentiments from the Cupid Clarence Stamp Set and heat embossed it from a heart die cut I had in my stash. I then finished it off by adding a few of the Matte White Enamel Dots.

There's nothing like a super easy shiny clean and simple card design. You could totally do this same design by changing out the foiled background and using just a piece of the Spring Floral #1 or Getting Inky Pattern Papers both from the Rabbit Hole Designs. I encourage you to think outside the box and recreate a version of this card.

Thanks for dropping by today I hope you have a wonderful day.

Happy Crafting

Sending Some Love - Cupid Clarence

Hello and welcome to the blog; it's Rick back with you today to share a super cute little Sending Some Love card using the Cupid Clarence Stamp Set. Cupid Clarence is a 4 x 4 stamp set designed by Dustin Pike for the Rabbit Hole Designs. It's a fun little set that you can color up Clarence in any media you would like, and has some sweet sentiments as well. Some of the sentiments include "love" (which we used on today's card), "Happy Galentine's Day", "Happy Valentine's Day", " sending some love your way", and the sentiment that I used on my last card "You are a little quirky, but that's why I love you". So, you can see you can pretty much hit up any occasion with this little love themed stamp set. Here's a look at the card I designed to share with you today.

For my card today I took and stamped Clarence in his little cupid outfit randomly all over the background in a clear sticky ink and covered it in clear embossing powder. I then heat set the embossing powder and ran the background through my laminator with heat transfer foil in a nice dark pink color. I then cut out the panel and matted it onto a piece of black cardstock and placed it on my card base. I then stamped Clarence onto some alcohol marker friendly paper and stamped him in an alcohol marker friendly coloring ink. I used my alcohol markers to color him in and bring this cute little cupid to life.

Once I had him all colored up I added some white highlights with my white gel pen and cut him out. There is the coordinating Cupid Clarence Die available to cut him out I didn't have it when I designed today's card so I had to fussy cut him out. Which wasn't to bad but if I had to do it over I would use the die instead. To finish off the card I added my sentiment on a strip of white cardstock and popped both him and the sentiment up. I then added a small heart die cut from my stash with one of the Clear Sparkle Enamel Dots added to it for a little bling.

You Are a Little Quirky - Fun Little Valentine's Day Card

Hello crafty friends, and welcome back to the Rabbit Hole Designs Blog; It's Rick back with you today to share a fun little Valentine's Day card that's perfect for that quirky person in your life. For my card I used the brand new Cupid Clarence 4 x 4 Stamp Set designed by Dustin Pike for the Rabbit Hole Designs. I also used the Triangle Mosaic 6 x 6 Stencil for the background.

To add more color to the Cupid Clarence stamp set I used my alcohol markers to color him in and added some fun little gold details with a gold gel pen. I also added some other little gold foil details as well. But I thought the fun little gold gel pen accents to his arrow, strings on his head band, and the hearts on his boxers was a fun little touch. So, don't forget those little details when it comes to making your projects. Sometimes it's those little touches that takes your cards to the next level.

When I am designing a card I love to take one of the stencils that you normally wouldn't think of for the occasion and add it to the backgrounds of my cards. For example here I used the Triangle Mosaic Stencil which is not your typical Valentine themed stencil. But the geometric pattern mixed with the fun Cupid Clarence just works and adds that little whimsical touch to the card. To finish off the card all I had to do was add a sentiment to the card on a coordinating piece of cardstock.

I hope this post has given you a little inspiration about combining products that you normally wouldn't put together to create a fun card.

Remember, it's all about experimentation and finding what resonates with you. And don't forget to share your creations on social media and tag The Rabbit Hole Designs to spread the card-making love.

Cupid -FND a slimline card

Hello my crafty friends! Welcome to today's The Rabbit Hole Designs blog! So a question for you... Is it Galantine's or Valentine's Day? Well, either way you look at it, that little cherub is so FND. That is Fat, Naked and Dangerous! So let's put him on a slimline card, right?

My Cupid -FND slimline card features The Rabbit Hole Designs' new Valentine stencil, the Sassy Anti Valentine stamp set and the soon to be retired Marquee Words stamps set.

This is one of those cards where you see it in your mind, try it out, change your mind midway thought, and start over. Sometimes this is the process when you create - trying by trying and learning as we makers make!

I started off with a piece of 3 1/4" x 8 1/4" pink cardstock. I stamped the word LOVE, from the Marquee Words stamp set in clear pigment ink 7 times straight down the card front. This gives the large letters a subtle shadow of the sentiment for the background. I placed the three striped hearts on the Valentine stencil on the front of the card front about 1/2' below the top of the card front. Using a Cotton Tail Blending Brush, I started to stencil it with Honeysuckle Ink. Once I removed the stencil to reveal the image, I found it to be far too much pink. I used my heat gun to make sure the ink was dry. I replaced the stencil over the pink heart stripes and re-stenciled the three hearts in Black Soot Distress Oxide ink.

Much better! I needed one more black striped heart, so I positioned the striped heart stencil to add a 4th small striped heart at the bottom of the slimline card front.

Chubby cupid, from the Sassy Anti Valentine stamp set, is stamped on white cardstock with Versa Mark clear pigment ink and heat embossed with red glittery Oriental Fire embossing powder. He is fussy cut and added to the card front. I layered the card front on a piece of red cardstock and tied it with some black twine.

I stamped and added the Fat, Naked and Dangerous sentiment from the Sassy Anti Valentine stamps set and attached it to the black twine. I mounted the card front on a dark grey slimline card base and added three black gemstone to finish the card.
