The Rabbit Hole Designs August 2024 Release Blog Hop

Hello, friends! Today, I am so excited to announce the August 2024 New Release of not one but TWO adorable balloon stamp sets with coordinating dies by The Rabbit Hole Designs, as well as a blog hop with loads of inspiration from our amazing design team. You can find the full hop list at the end of this post.

I will be showcasing the Balloon Animals Set #1 for you, as well as some products from the July release. 

I created the background using the Paisley Bandana Stencil from the July release, which I used in a variety of bright colors. I then proceeded to cut the panel using the middle-sized You've Been Framed Layering Dies, followed by cutting a pink panel using the largest of the dies. I then used the smallest of the dies on vellum. I adhered them together and attached them to an A2 white card base. 

I then stamped the floral balloon image from the Balloon Animals Stamp Set #1 and colored it with alcohol markers, which were consistent with the background. I then cut it out using the matching die. The sentiment is from Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set also from the July release and was stamped in black ink, cut with the matching dies, and adhered to the panel with foam strips to add dimension. I also added iridescent sequins for a touch of sparkle to complete the card.  

I hope you enjoyed my card and that you find inspiration to create one yourself today. Please be sure to follow along on the hop for even more inspiration.

Sending Hugs

Happy Friday everyone! I am delighted to share with you a card I created using the Pinwheel Stencil, Mindful Magnolias Stamp Set, You've Been Framed Layering Dies and Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set and Dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs. I love how the pink pops against the black background.

I began with an A-2 size white panel. I positioned the pinwheel stencil on top and secured it with masking tape. The background was created using Distress Oxide inks: Black Soot, Weathered Wood, and Iced Spruce. Next, I cut the panel with the largest frame from the You've Been Framed Layering Dies and adhered it to a pink card base. 

The magnolias were then stamped onto another panel and colored with alcohol markers. From there, I fussy cut the images, but matching dies are available. I adhered them to the panel using foam strips to provide dimension. The sentiment comes from the Sentimentally Speaking Stamp set. It was heat embossed on black cardstock with white embossing powder, cut out using the Sentimentally Speaking Dies, and then adhered with foam strips. I finished the card with a few sequins.

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

Just Because

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 Paisley Bandana Layering Stencil from the July release. 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 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 great rest of your day!

Best Wishes - Candy Twist Stencil

Hi friends, Carrianne here. I'm thrilled to be back on the blog and sharing this delightful card featuring The Rabbit Hole Designs Candy Twist Stencil and Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set with their coordinating dies. Have I mentioned how much I love stencils? I really love the simplicity and ease of creating cards with them. The result is always fabulous, and they do all the work with little effort. 

For the background, I used the Candy Twist Stencil on an A-2 size white panel and inked it with Distress Oxide Inks - Spiced Marmalade, and Twisted Citron using my Cottontail Blending Brushes. I cut the panel using the You've Been Framed Dies and adhered it to a lime green card base. 

I stamped the sentiment from Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set with Versamark ink on black cardstock and heat embossed it with white embossing powder on black cardstock and cut it with the matching dies. I adhered it to the panel with foam dots for added dimension. The card was finished with black sequins and a few stars. 

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

The Rabbit Hole Designs July 2024 Release Blog Hop

Hi Friends! I am thrilled to share two fun cards featuring products from the new release from The Rabbit Hole Designs. If you are a fan of stencils, then you are going to love this release!

For my first card, I used the Paisley Bandana Stencil, which is one of my personal favorites from this release. I really love the pattern. It includes two-layer 6x6 stencils. I chose to use my favorite color combination of teal and pink, but there are endless possibilities. I trimmed it and adhered it to a teal mat layer, then adhered it to a white A-2 size card base.

The Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set is also a new released product, and it is accompanied with matching dies. The sentiment was stamped on black cardstock with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with white embossing powder. I completed the card with some clear and iridescent sequins.

For my next card, I used the Pinwheel Stencil. I achieved my background using a technique called stamping with a stencil. I inked up my stencil with different shades of purple, spritzed some water over the entire stencil, then flipped it over, placed it onto a watercolor panel and pressed down with a cloth. I removed my stencil and created a beautiful mixed-media background. I used You've Been Framed Die Set and adhered it to a purple A-2 size card base. The sentiment is from Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set and Die Set. The card was completed with a few clear sequins.

Thank you so much for stopping by! I had a lot of fun making these cards and I hope that they have inspired you.
