More Inspiration with The Rabbit Hole Designs Dragon Fun Bundle

Hi friends! I'm sharing this smokin’ cute dragon card using the Dragon Fun Bundle from The Rabbit Hole Designs. He’s bringing the heat and a whole lot of charm!

After stamping and coloring the images with alcohol markers, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. 

For the background, I softly blended a pale blue ink across the top of a white panel to create an airy sky, letting the color fade naturally toward the center. I followed with a lime green blend from the bottom upward, creating a soft transition into the blue to resemble a grassy landscape. 

I then die-cut the panel using the medium-sized You've Been Framed Layering Die Set and mounted it to a white card base. I added the images with foam tape for a playful pop and stamped the sentiment from the set directly onto the background in crisp black ink.

Thanks for flying by! I hope your day is fire-breathing fabulous!

I Dig You Stamp and Die Set from The Rabbit Hole Designs

Hi friends! Today I’m sharing a clean and simple card that’s full of charm (and a little dirt) featuring the adorable “I Dig You” Stamp & Die Set from The Rabbit Hole Designs.

Let’s be honest... I DIG this set so much! It’s perfect for spreading smiles with minimal fuss—and those little details make it pop!

I started by stamping the images, coloring them with alcohol markers, and cutting them out with the matching dies. To create a clean, grounded background, I placed masking tape on the panel and blended some blue and brown inks for a crisp, straight edge. Then I popped the images up with foam tape for a little dimension. The sentiment is stamped in black ink just below the scene to tie it all together.

Thanks for visiting! Hope your day is rooted in joy and full of crafty vibes!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July, crafty friends!

I’m excited to share a fun and festive card created to celebrate the 4th of July, featuring some fantastic products from The Rabbit Hole Designs. This card is bright, playful, and full of summer flavor—literally!

To celebrate the season, I created a bold background using the Connected by the Stars Stencil—blending patriotic red, white, and blue tones to mimic festive fireworks and twinkling night skies. The stars bring instant 4th of July energy!

To add a bit of whimsy, I stamped the cupcake from the One in a Melon Stamp Set, colored it with coordinating alcohol markers for a sweet little nod to summer treats and cut it out with the One in a Melon Dies. 

Then I brought in the Sentimentally Speaking Holiday Bundle to add a greeting that really stood out. This set is packed with sentiments for nearly every holiday, making it easy to find the perfect one no matter the season.

Thanks so much for stopping by on this special day! I hope you’re enjoying the holiday—whether you’re watching fireworks, hosting a BBQ, or sneaking in a little creative time.

Altenew Mixed Media Magic: Create a Card that Shines Workshop

Last night, I had the absolute joy of teaching my second Altenew workshop, and what a fun, creative evening it was! This time, we dove into another mixed media card project—full of texture, shimmer, and layered goodness that brought out everyone’s unique creative voice.

We explored shimmer sprays, stenciling with paste, working with geometric stamped elements and layering die-cut florals to create depth and visual interest. It was all about mixing mediums in a simple, approachable way to get that bold, artistic feel without overcomplicating the process.

One of my favorite parts? Seeing how each participant took the same techniques and made them their own! Every project had its own flair, which is what I love most about mixed media—it’s messy, expressive, and totally you.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined me live. It means so much to create alongside such an encouraging and talented community. 

Until then, stay creative, stay curious, and keep making magic!

Smiles - Mixed Media Magic

Today I had the joy of crafting with my sweet friend Andrea, who missed my workshop last night. We went through all the techniques together—and because we both adore mixed media, we couldn’t resist putting our own creative spin on it.

There’s just something special about slowing down, sharing ideas, and creating side by side with someone who gets your crafty soul.

Grateful for days like this, full of layers, laughter, and a little shimmer.

Colorful Options Challenge - July 2025 DT Card

Hello crafty friends! A new month means it’s time for a brand-new Colorful Options Challenge—and this one’s serving up all the summer picnic vibes! Think juicy reds, sunny yellows, cool blues, and fresh greens. Feeling bold? The rainbow theme is always an option too! Can’t wait to see what you make!

Say hello to gnome-y cuteness! This card features the C.C. Designs Cutie Gnome Stamp Set + dies—seriously fun to craft with and ideal for scene-building magic!

The gnomes are out to play! I stamped and colored the adorable characters from the C.C. Designs Cutie Gnome set, then cut them with coordinating dies. 

For their woodland hangout, I blended up a forest scene using Hello Bluebird’s Summer Woods Scene Die. Distress Oxides in Walnut Stain, Twisted Citron, and Mowed Lawn brought the trees and grass to life.

Everything is arranged on a clean slimline base with foam tape and a cheerful sentiment to tie it all together. A joy to make from start to finish!

Thanks gnome-uch for stopping by! Wishing you a crafty and colorful day—see you next time!

The Paper Funday July Challenge - DT Card

Welcome back to The Paper Funday Challenges!

We’re thrilled to have you joining us for another month of creativity and inspiration. This month’s challenge is proudly sponsored by Lawn Fawn and Newton’s Nook, and we’re keeping things wide open with an Anything Goes theme! But to add a little extra spark, we’re giving it a fun twist: Fun with Stencils!

So grab your favorite stencils and let your imagination run wild. We can't wait to see what you create!

To frame the design, I used the Slimline Waves Die from Whimsy Stamps as a decorative border, adding a wave-inspired edge that perfectly complements the theme. 

For the background, I blended shades of blue and beige ink to create a beachy backdrop full of summer fun. I also included a sun die and two wave dies from the La-La Land Crafts June Kit of the Month to add more dimension and a playful, layered look. 

The sentiment is from the same Newton’s Nook set, and I heat embossed it in black for a crisp, bold finish. All the elements came together to make this slimline card feel like a mini day at the beach!

Thanks for stopping by to check out my card! I hope it inspires you to dig out your summer-themed stamps and create a card that makes you smile. Happy crafting!

Happy Pride

Hi friends! I’m celebrating PRIDE Month with a fun and fiery card featuring the Dragon Fun Bundle and paired it with the Sentimentally Speaking Holiday Bundle from The Rabbit Hole Designs. It’s all about color, joy, and creative expression!

I started by cutting rainbow-colored cardstock into strips and adhering them to a white panel in a playful zig-zag pattern. Next, I die cut a stitched cloud and added it with foam tape for a bit of dimension.

I stamped the dragon from the Dragon Fun Stamp & Die Set, colored it with alcohol markers, and popped it up onto the rainbow using foam tape to really make it stand out. To finish off the card, I added a sentiment from the Sentimentally Holiday Bundle—a perfect touch to bring it all together!

The Rabbit Hole Designs is firmly committed to equality for all and in observation of June being PRIDE month we are going to donate 10% of all our retail sales to the Trevor Project!
