The Rabbit Hole Designs- Boo to You


Welcome back to day 2 of the hop!  More fun in store today from The Rabbit Hole Designs and warning... I am bring lots of sparkle.  And we have two new sets we are using today, Pumpkin Hair Don't Care and Boo to You.  I am featuring Boo to You.  Here is my first card:

This card was fun to make, shakers always are!  Here is how I made this one.  First, I started by stamping out the primary image from the stamp set on Copic friendly paper.  I colored it using my makers and set it aside.  Next I got out this purple cardstock and made a base.  Next, I die cut this spider web paper with my wonky stitches die around the outside and my HA circle die in the center to make the window.  I stamped and embossed the sentiment on the lower right using gold embossing powder from Wow.  Then I added acetate behind my window.  I mounted the image behind it with foam tape and put the sparkly bits on the inside. I mounted that on the base and done!  I just love the sparkle. 

Here is my second card today. Also sparkly. :) I wanted to make this one look like a old fashioned halloween card/postcard. Really, it was pretty easy to make. I started by die cutting my white paper with this Memory Box Postage Stamp die. Once die cut, I stamped my image repeatedly on the white with versamark, then I embossed it with black embossing powder. Next, I used my Pumpkin Orange distress ink to color the edges. I stamped the sentiment on purple with the spider hanging off, then I stamped the spider on the white as well. I gave it a purple belly by using stickles. Once that portion was done and dry, I mounted it on purple sparkly paper, followed by black sparkly paper on a basic base.

As I said, today's creations are filled with sparkles and I hope you enjoyed them.

The Rabbit Hole Designs- Hex Yeah

Hey there The Rabbit Hole Designs Fans!  Welcome back to  another month and another release! We are getting into to the fall/Halloween spirit this month.  So be prepared to sit back, relax and get spooky. 

 Day 1 introduces the new set Hex Yeah.  And I have two fun cards using this set:

First up is resting witch face- bwahahahaha!  I LOVE this sentiment more than I can say.  I had a meeting at work the other day, someone told me, "your face says it all." Whoops, I didn't mean to share my resting witch face! LOL. 

 To make this one, I started by stamping the image on watercolor paper with archival ink so it wouldn't bleed.  Then I used my zigs to color the image.  Once it was good and dry, I die cut the white using this rounded edge rectangle die (MFT).  I die cut some green DP from Doodlebugs using a larger size.  I mounted the image layer on top of that layer.  I cut black CS as the base and threw in some orange ribbon for fun, then the green on top of that.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment on this orange polkadot paper and embossed it using silver embossing powder (WOW). 


For my second card, I wanted to show you the versatility of this set.  I used glossy paper and stamped and embossed the sentiment in black.  Then I stamped the bats and also embossed them in purple (both WOW).  Next, I added some Brushos and water to the paper, once I had the saturation level and colors I wanted, I used my heat gun to dry it.  I added this scrap of striped orange paper to the bottom and then cut a tiny bit of black cardstock to add to it and adhered them both down.  I put this on the black cardstock base. Next, I stamped the main image and colored the hat using my Copics, then I cut it off from the main image and put it in on the card as the perfect finishing touch. 

 Here is a shot of both cards together:
