Stalker Alert

Hello TRHD fans! This is Shanna here today to show to a card that has BEEn in my head for a while now! (Sorry!?!) This is a compilation of not one, not two, but THREE different TRHD fabulous stamp sets!  Pretty in Peony, Caffeinated Bee, and Sassy Sentiments .  


I started out by stamping the bee on a Bristol cardstock panel.  I knew that I was going to mask the bee, so while it was still inked I stamped an additional bee on a post-it note and fussy cut it out.  I carefully lined up the mask over my bee and then added my flower and leaves following the same masking technique.  


After all the images were stamped, I watercolored them with my Tombow markers.  A little bit of blue shading around the scene really helped it stand out on the panel. I chose to stamp my sentiment straight on to the panel using a colored ink. My daughter is always saying that the bees in our yard “stalk her” so this sentiment made me literally laugh out loud!  I completed the card with a few scattered sequins in coordinating colors, and I was done! 

Masking is one of my favorite stamping techniques because I really enjoy combining different sets! What is one of your favorite techniques?  

Thanks so much for stopping by, see you all again soon!

Foxy Dad-isms


Hello again!  Shanna here from Caffeinated Craftiness again to share a fabulous Father's Day card using The Rabbit Hole Design's slightly cranky, under-caffeinated, just waking up Caffeinated Fox! I really wanted to use this guy for a Father's Day card for my husband, and the Sassy Sentiments paired perfectly with him for a "dad-ism" card.  My favorite is "Here, hold my beer".  I picked my favorites and stamped directly onto my coffee sleeve after dry embossing with a striped folder.  Sooo many to pick from, but I narrowed it down to the 4 that reminded me most of him. 


The coffee-shaped card was die-cut, then after fussy cutting my Caffeinated Fox, I mounted him directly onto the sleeve so he can slide off and the card can open.  He was watercolored using my Zig real brush markers on Canson Mixed Media paper. I chose to paper-piece his robe with a small print I had in my scraps though, I like how it looks like a pattered fabric! Add "#1 Dad" to the mug and Voila! I plan on inserting a gift card or two inside for a sweet little gift from me and the kids.  That along with his favorite meal, and we will have a successful Father's Day in the books!

Well, that's all for today.. Guest Designing for The Rabbit Hole Designs has been a ton of fun this month for such a fresh, fun company...Thanks for stopping by!  If you would like to follow along with my caffeinated adventures, stop by my blog here and say hi!
