Holly Hugs

 Hello friends! Welcome back to the blog. Today's card features the 1 Line Holly 2x6 stamp set. During the hustle bustle of the holiday season sometimes we just need a kind word of encouragement. I created a "Sending Hugs" card featuring the holly image.



Card details:
  • Stamp the holly image from the 1 Line Holly 2x6 stamp set with an alcohol-friendly black ink on white cardstock. Stamp the image at an angle using a MISTI. Move and rotate the cardstock and stamp the same image 2 more times. Color the holly leaves with alcohol markers. Use red bling for the berries.
  • Adhere green patterned paper to the corner of the cardstock and trim the entire panel to 4"x5.25". 
  • Stamp the "Sending Hugs" and "Just Because" sentiments from the Sentimentally Speaking stamp set and die-cut with their coordinating dies. Adhere sentiments near bottom right corner of card.
  • Adhere entire panel to an A2 sized light blue patterned paper and then to an A2 sized card base.

Brighten Someone’s Day: Creating a Get Well Soon Card with The Rabbit Hole Designs

 Hello, crafty friends! Rick here today, writing for The Rabbit Hole Designs blog. I'm thrilled to share a colorful and heartwarming get well soon card using the fabulous Pinwheel Stencil and Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set & Dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs. This cheerful project is perfect for brightening someone’s day with a burst of vibrant color and heartfelt sentiment.


Let’s start with the background, where the Pinwheel Stencil takes center stage. I began by placing the stencil over a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of White 80 lbs Cardstock and secured it with low tack tape. This ensures the stencil stays in place while we work on the design.

Here’s a handy trick: lightly trace the stencil pattern with a pencil before adding color. This step makes it easier to stay within the lines. After tracing, I removed the stencil and used my alcohol markers (from my stash) to fill in the traced areas. I chose a range of colors to create a beautiful, blended effect within each section of the pinwheel design.

Pro Tip: For smooth blending, start with the lightest color and gradually add darker shades. This helps create a seamless transition between colors.


To add definition to the design, I placed the stencil back over the colored areas and traced it again with an alcohol safe black pen. This step enhances the detail and makes the pinwheel design pop. After removing the stencil, I trimmed the panel down to 4" x 5 1/4". This slight reduction in size allows for a nice border when mounted on the card base.

Next, I cut a strip of Vellum Cardstock about 1 3/4 to 2 inches wide and wrapped it around the card front, securing it with strong adhesive. The vellum adds a soft, elegant touch without overshadowing the colorful background. I then mounted the entire panel onto a slightly larger piece of black cardstock and adhered it to an A2 top folding card base.

Pro Tip: Use a bone folder to ensure the vellum adheres smoothly and doesn’t create any bubbles or wrinkles.


The Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set & Dies are perfect for adding a heartfelt message. I stamped the “Get Well Soon” sentiment onto a scrap of  White Cardstock using Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink, which gives a crisp and clear impression. I used the coordinating die to cut out the sentiment and created dimension by cutting three additional layers from scrap cardstock (from my stash). Stacking these behind the stamped sentiment gives it a sturdy, chipboard-like feel, making it stand out beautifully.

To finish off the card, I added some Matte White Enamel Dots around the sentiment for a bit of embellishment. These little dots add a subtle yet impactful detail. Lastly, I used a White Gel Pen (from my stash) to add highlights to the colored pinwheel design, adding a touch of whimsy and bringing the whole design together.

Pro Tip: When adding highlights, think about where the light would naturally hit your design. This small detail can make a big difference in making your card look polished and professional.


I hope you enjoyed learning about this cheerful get well soon card. The combination of the Pinwheel Stencil and the Sentimentally Speaking Stamps & Dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs makes for a delightful project that’s sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face. Don’t forget to experiment with different color combinations and make this design your own.


Happy crafting, everyone!

Just Because card with the Paisley Bandana Stencil

Hello friends. Carrianne here. I am so happy to be back on The Rabbit Hole Designs Blog! Today, I would like to share with you a card featuring the newly released Paisley Bandana Layering Stencil. This set contains two 6 x6 stencils that are easy to layer together. 


I started with an A2-sized panel of lavender colored cardstock. I inked blended two shades of purple, creating a fun paisley background. I adhered it to my card base with glue at an angle to create a fun design. I turned it over and trimmed the excess material from the edges with my craft scissors.

Pro Tip: When trimming the edges of a card, always start from the backside by flipping it over. This will prevent cutting the card base and make sure the cut is clean.


The Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set and coordinating dies are also from the new release. I stamped the sentiment in purple ink, cut it with the matching die, and then popped it up on foam dots for dimension. I added purple sequins to complete the card.


Thank you so much for dropping in with me today! Have a Fantastic day!
