Leafy Sidewalks & Crisp Morning Air

 Hello crafty friends it's Rick back to share another fun project with you during this holiday week with it's crisp morning air and leaves falling on the sidewalks!  Which was the inspiration for my little card today.  I hope you have gotten all your trimmings and things ready to go for the big day on Thursday!  So, in the spirit of Thanksgiving I created a super cute little Fall themed card using the Fall Foxes Stamp Set and some colorful fall leaves die cuts that I cut our using the Falling Leaves Dies.

For the cute little napping fox (which I am sure we all will be doing come Thursday after our Thanksgiving meal) I decided to do a little no line coloring with my colored pencils.  I stamped him in a light color ink and colored up up.  The trick to no line coloring is to make sure you have all your values in place to make the image look dimensional.  I used my paper snips to cut him out and used a set of nesting circle dies to cut out the window in the center of the card base.  I then placed my little fox in the center on some foam tape.

To ground this adorable little guy I added a strip of navy cardstock with the sentiment heat embossed in white just below him.  This gives the impression that he is resting on the sentiment strip.  I then embellished the card with a few of the fall colored leaves that I die cut from a gel print using the Falling Leaves Dies.

And there you have my simple little fall card just in time for nap time on Thursday.  All know that everyone is enjoying the crips morning air and leafy sidewalks during your morning strolls.  So, I hope that you have a fabulous day and I will be back with another card later this week using the Falling Leaves Dies for another fun little card design.  So, stay tune for that.

Silly Pumpkins and Playful Foxes: A Whimsical Fall Card

 Hello and welcome back to the Rabbit Hole Designs Blog.  It's Rick here with you today to bring you a fun whimsical Fall themed card.  To create the card I used not one, not two, but three different stamp sets from the Rabbit Hole Designs.  I used the brand new Silly Pumpkins Stamp Set from the latest release as the focal image and the other two sets are my supporting actors for this feature.  Here's a look at the card I created to share with you today.

After creating the backgrounds for the card, I stamped the Silly Pumpkins Stamp Set in a light colored ink because I knew I wanted to color it in a no line coloring style.  I used my alcohol markers for the coloring.

Which was super easy since the design that Agota Pop came up with for this stamp set was super easy to color.  I then decided that my original background needed a little something, something to jazz it up a little bit more.  So I used my Cottontail Embossing Powder Tool and adding some anti-static powder to the card panel.  I then stamped the Falling Leaves 6x6 Stamp Set in embossing ink and covered it with gold embossing powder.  I then heat set the embossing powder to add a little more glitz to the card front.

Once I had the background finished I then could add my add the Silly Pumpkins Image to the card front and the sentiment that I had stamped from the Fall Foxes Stamp Set.  To finish off the card I added a few die cut leaves that I created using the Falling Leaves Dies.  I used these die cuts in the creation of my background panels in the first stage of adding ink to get the fun fall ink colors onto them.  I simply tucked them behind the Silly Pumpkins to finish off the card.  

I hope that you have a wonderful day and thanks for joining us today.  

Happy Stampin'
