I'm linking up to the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge: out with the old in with the new; use old and new
For my card, I used a reeeeaaallly old sizzix embossing folder ⚘and for the new, a Simon Says Stamp butterfly stamp set I just recently purchased. 🦋😊
Hello! July is a great time to get those Christmas cards started, and the newly released Tatsiana Zayats Hoppy Holidays stamp set from The Rabbit Hole Designs will inspire you to do so!
Although the bunny is the CUTEST, I wanted to create a card that showed some versatility with the set.
This is a mini slimline card. I created the background paper by stamping a border along the left side and along the bottom of the paper with the holly stamp. I then stamped/cut out masks for them using masking paper. I used the Back Alley stencil in a grey ink color. I removed the masks and colored in the holly with alcohol inks, shimmer pen, and some dimensional glaze on the berries. On a piece of white card stock, I stamped the large envelope of goodies, colored the tree, star, and bird and then fussy cut them out; I attached them to the lower left corner with dimensional foam. I stamped Joyful greetings to the side of the bird in black. I always feel like Christmas cards need a little sparkle, so I added some bling to the tree and some pretty gold confetti to the rest of the card.
Six months to Christmas!
Cheers,
Vanessa

Hi Everyone! I am excited to be sharing on The Rabbit Hole Designs Blog today.
I used the new Tatsiana Zayats Lazy Summer stamp set from the July release.
For this card, I used the lounging walrus as my focal point, along with the puny sayings to go with it. It's sure to brighten anyone's day.
I created my own background paper by stamping the two sentiments (Beach therapy is a shore cure, everything's gonna be walright) over repeatedly with a yellow on yellow with the exception of once in purple to stand out as the main sentiment. I lightly inked around the edges in a yellow ink. I layered it onto a glitter paper that was layered onto the purple card front. I quickly inked a little beach scene on an oval die cut, layered onto another slightly larger oval die cut. The walrus was stamped onto white cardstock and colored with alcohol inks and colored pencils with gamsol; cut out. Slightly off center to the left, I mounted the ovals with dimensional foam to the card front, then attached the walrus with dimensional foam as well. I then added a few colored confetti pieces to embellish the card.
Happy cardmaking!

Welcome to day 2 of The Rabbit Hole Designs July release blog hop.
I have a Holiday card to share with you today using the adorable Tatsiana set Hoppy Holidays:
I decided to make a slimline card, and started by creating my own background paper by stamping the holly repeatedly. I then colored them with alcohol inks and colored pencils and finished it off with a shimmery spray. On white cardstock, I stamped the bunny envelope image and colored it with alcohol markers. I accented the ribbons and small circles with foils using two way glue, the snowflakes with glitter, and the berries and center star with dimensional glaze; cut out image. On a strip of white cardstock, I stamped Hoppy Holidays in red, and added foil with score tape along the edges. I assembled the card by layering the stamped background paper, then the hoppy holidays strip and then used dimensional foam to attach the main image allowing it it to pop off the card as the main focus.

Line-up:Hello there! It's release time for The Rabbit Hole Designs. Welcome to day 1!
This is my first release as a new DT member of TRHD, so it's extra exciting for me. There are 4 new Tatsiana Zayats stamp sets and 3 die sets being released. I get to share with you a card I made using the Lazy Summer stamp set:
That hippo stamp just makes me smile! It's more fun to drink with a friend, so I stamped two: one sunbathing in the sand with her drink and the other standing by. I masked off where the sand at the front of the scene would be and stamped the hippos. Then I stamped/cut masks out of masking paper to cover the stamped hippos so that I could ink blend the rest of the scene. This was a quick and easy ocean beach scene to ink blend. I used a glimmer pen to make the ocean glisten and a white gel pen for ocean foam. I colored the hippos with alcohol makers and colored pencils with gamsol. Since clear stamps are flexible and you are able to see where you are placing them, I curved the sentiment on my stamping block to line up with the curve in the sand. I added a few gold pieces of shiny confetti for added interest. Then I stamped the other sentiment on a piece of cardstock for the inside and the card.

I'm here with this card I made for a friend and linking up to Gerda Steiner's June Challenge.
I watercolored him 😊, added a frame I cut with my snc, splattered some water color marker and put on some puffy stickers from tsol. Quick card but look how cute he is.
The challenge over at Jaded Blossom's this month is summer vibes.
I wasn't sure what I was going to do, but a gnome loving friend is having a paddle board birthday get together. I was inspired to make this card for her.
Although the surf board is not Jaded Blossom, the sun die and gnome stamps are. I created the ocean scene by inking.
I'm excited to be linking up to the current Art Impressions challenge: birthdays.
I was so happy to get this owl flutter set during their 70% off sale a few months back. It's so cute and fun! I'm finally getting the chance to use it. I'm going to send it to my Grandma. She will love it.
Ok! So here's my card using the owl flutter set from AI.
I created a card to link up to the Gerda Steiner May Challenge.
I used a The Stamps of Life flip it die set for the card with Honeybee Stamps paper for a quick and easy card. I think it makes this bear the focal point, and I just love him. Isn't he the cutest!?
Hello! I'm super excited that I was the lucky winner from the Jaded Blossom April challenge. I Just got my prize in the mail today. Awesome. So fun! I can't wait to make a card with it. Thanks, JB!
I'm back to link up for the May challenge which is Anything goes.
I created this card using Jaded Blossom's Java Time, and buffalo print stencil. The coffee rings is a Tim Holtz stencil.
