The Rabbit Hole Designs ~ Happy Valentines Day ~ *Giveaway Alert!

MaryAnn, here to share a really easy to make card with you that features the newest images from
The Rabbit Hole Designs set Love You More

Many know I can color faces and such but I labor for hours because I am not very good at it, so when the chance happens by that I can create a project that requires little to no coloring and the images still convey the message, I am on it! This is a card technique that comes together so fast and easy that before you know it you have created many.

Card Recipe

I created an embossed background on a piece Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb cardstock cut down to 4 1/8th x 5 3/8 using stacking/infinity heart dies and set aside.
I then stamped the couple with a Copic friendly ink and used my Brother Scan and Cut to cut around the couple, but you can also fussy cut this very easily as the image is pretty straight forward
Again I am no pro at Copic coloring of people so I quickly grabbed R27 and gave the stamped image a quick pass with some color.
I thought the couple needed something so I Copic Black 100 and went all around the edge as seen in the picture below. I applied 3D mounting tape to the back of the couple and set aside to start assembly.
My card base is Neenah Classic Crest 110lb Solar White cut to A2 size. I used a piece of black cardstock from my stash cut down to A2 size and affixed it to the top of the card base using Tombow multi mono glue. I then used the same glue to affix the heart embossed panel dead center (well for me sort of crooked dead center). Next up was the previously colored, cut and foam taped kissing couple, to the center of the hearts. To finish off this card some black enamel dots on the front, give the card a nice pop of sparkle and shine.

The Rabbit Hole Designs ~ So-Fishticated Valentines Day Card

Good Morning Dreamerz

Today I am up on the blog and I want to share a fast and easy, easy to make card with you that features the newest images from
The Rabbit Hole Designs set So-Fishticated and Love you More

Card Recipe

Stamp fish with Versafine Clair ink in Paradise and Charming Pink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set.
Fussy cut or use a Scan-n-Cut for the fish and use a C5 Copic marker around all the edges to add dimension. Apply foam tape to back of fish and set aside
Versafine Clair in Morning Mist for the LOVE from Love You More with clear embossing powder applied and heat set.
Diecut from Neenah Classic Crest 110lb the heart in the center of an A2 sized panel, then I used another die to trim down the panel further. Apply a piece of acetate to back of diecut panel using strong adhesive. Add foam to over the acetate leaving plenty of room around the heart and to edges of diecut panel for stability.
I used a scrap piece of watercolored paper for the colored layer under the diecut panel and affixed to the center of the card base. Sprinkle on some sequins in center and spread out just a bit. Apply foam backed diecut panel and press firmly to attach.
Lastly apply the fish to the front of the panel.
Neenah Classic Crest Solar white in 110lb(card base), diecut panel, and the fish.
