The Rabbit Hole Designs ~ Love You More ~ Anniversary Card

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

Card Recipe

• Create a stamped with versamark watermark ink and clear powder heat embossed background on Neenah Classic Crest White 80lb cardstock using the smaller elements from the stamp set "Don't forget to use your anti-static powder on the panel before stamping" 
• Grab your favorite blending tools and some inks and set about blending them on the panel any way you wish.  Honestly there is no wrong way here, just go with it!
• I then stamped the couple with a Copic friendly ink and die cut the panel on a slant.  I found it really easy to do with rectangle dies so I could have a nice finished edge. 
• I am no pro at Copic coloring of people so I quickly grabbed some markers and gave the stamped image a quick pass with some color. 
• I stamped the sentiments on the left over piece of cardstock at the bottom of the now diecut couples panel lined it up and gave a quick stamp and I was happy.  Now to assembly.
• To adhere the ink blended panel to the 110lb card base I used Tombow Multi glue in the green bottle. For the couple panel I added 3D mounting foam to the back of the panel and attached to the top left edge flush top and left of the ink blended panel. I repeated the mounting foam with the sentiment strip but left a bit of space between so you can see some of the background peeking thru. To finish off this card some pink confetti sequins and a couple of clear heart shaped drops that I used some red glitter glue to adhere to the front, give the card a nice pop of sparkle and shine.

Guest DT for Kat Scrappiness ~ Easter ~1

Good Morning Dreamer'z!!

Today I am up on the Kat Scrappiness Design Team Blog as a Guest Designer.  I have been a long time customer of all things Kat Scrappiness as her fast shipping and great prices keep me coming back.  So when Kat herself asked me if I would like to be a Guest on her Design Team of course I had to say yes!! 

So during the month of April I will be posting a few different projects using her exclusive product along with products you can easily shop for on her website.

Card #1

Card #2

Today's cards use the new Crafters Essentials Easter Edition Dies along with a few other Dies from her exclusive line.  I will be sure to add links to the items in the card recipe below.

Diecut a couple bunnies

Create a couple of masked off panels using post it note tape

• Grab your favorite blending tools and the ink of your choice.  For these 2 cards I used Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink and set about blending the bunnies from the bottom up just place the bunnies on the panel any way you wish and give it a light blend around the edge of the die cut.  Honestly there is no wrong way here, just go with it!

• For card #1, I masked off the ink blended bunnies and applied a splatter of Picked Raspberry Distress Ink and some Black Shimmer watercolor from my stash. when the panel was dry I used Stitched Fancy Scalloped Rectangle Die centered over the panel to give it a fancy and flirty look. A piece of Gina K Designs Passionate Pink paper and Gina K Designs Black Onyx paper were cut down and used as layers beneath the bunny blended panel.  All panels were attached atop a top folding A2 sized card base of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock I used Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive for all my adhesive on my cards today.  I like how it did not cause any warping and gave me just enough time to position the panels all in place
• For card #2 all steps are the exact same except I masked this panel to allow for a bigger pattern.  I used the largest of the Stitched Fancy Scalloped Rectangle Die to cut the panel, and again to cut a panel from the Gina K Black Onyx paper which I used as a frame, I diecut a rectangle from the center of it.  I glued the black onyx frame to the top of the blended bunny panel and then affixed it to the top of a side folding A2 sized card base of Gina K Designs Passionate Pink cardstock.  I still felt the card needed something so I grabbed a simple script Happy Easter sentiment stamp from my stash and stamped it with Versamark embossing ink and used a pale pink embossing powder on a scrap piece of Black Onyx paper, applied a strip of double sided foam tape and affixed to bottom of panel as shown.

That is all for me today.  I hope I have inspired you to maybe give this technique a go and create some fast and easy cards.

The Rabbit Hole Designs ~ Spring is in the air

Good Morning Dreamer'z

Today I am up on the The Rabbit Hole Designs blog and I want to share an easy to make card with you that features the one of the images from
The Rabbit Hole Designs set Easter Bounty

Today's card was super fun to make and gave me a chance to get a little inky. And best of all was a 1 layer card that came together fairly quick once I had all the supplies gathered up.

Card Recipe

• I stamped the girl rabbit and gave her a quick coloring with copics. 
• I then stamped the kite from an upcoming set to be released next week on 03-27-2019 (yes you all are getting a sneak peek) and gave it a quick coloring with copics.  I also stamped the kite on a piece of post it tape to create a mask which I applied over just the diamond shape of the kite.
• Ink up your background using a cloud stencil or you can use any die cut with wave like border and use that as a stencil.
• I used Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink on a tiny blender brush to apply a patch of grass around the bottom of the bunny's feet.
• I decided to use the sentiment from Easter Bounty stamped in a pretty purple that closely matched the purple on the bunny's dress.
• instead of adding some sequins or enamel dots I went with the tiny butterfly also found in the Easter Bounty stamp set.
• Neenah Classic Crest Solar white in 110lb  was used to create a side fold A2 sized card.

SumMoreFun ~ Challenge #31

Good Morning Dreamerz,

Today is the start of Challenge #31 on the SumMoreFun Designs Blog. The Theme/Mood Board for this challenge is so pretty.  Here's my inspiration for you using: Cherry Blossom

Not going to lie this one I struggled with.  I just could not get anything from brain to paper how I wanted and admit to round filing (trashing) numerous attempts before I finally was happy with the card you see today. Today's project is using the color part of the mood board.

Card Recipe:
I stamped the Cherry Blossom stamps across the bottom diagonally using versamark and applied white embossing powder and heat set the images.  Next came the ink blending using Distress Inks in Walnut Stain, Peeled Paint, and Tumbled Glass as those are 3 of the colors from the mood board. I die cut the layer using DieNamics Mod Rectangle Stax and then using a smaller die from the same set I die cut through the blended layer and the card base layer which is a side folding piece of Neenah Desert Storm 100lb cardstock.  Now that I have a window I used 2 pieces of tulle to form the shaker and filled with some burgundy and silver sequins. A liberal layer of Tombow glue applied to the blended layer was used to apply to the front of the card. 
How the colors fit the mood board, 3 ink blended colors, card base of lighter brown, and burgundy shade sequins
