Today is the last day of the February Release Inspiration Hop at The Rabbit Hole Designs. The card I'm sharing was made using the new Blooming Heart stamp set and coordinating die. For the background I used the new You've Been Framed-Layering Dies. If you look closely you can see the clear enamel dots. I love them, they add a little sparkle without a lot of color. On The Rabbit Hole Design's website, you can find them in clear, clear sparkly, or matte white. All options are beautiful.

TRHD February Release Inspiration Hop - Day 1
Hi everyone! Today is Day 1 of The Rabbit Hole Designs February Release Inspiration Hop and it is featuring the new and adorable Love Puffin Stamp Set illustrated by Agota Pop, along with the brand new You've Been Framed - Layering Dies.
For my card, I used the cute little puffin pair and colored with pencils. I matched the hearts that they are holding to a sheet of paper from The Spring Floral #1 paper pad from The Rabbit Hole Designs. The purple plaid background paper is from the same paper pad. I used the new dies, You've Been Framed, for the layering pieces. The sentiment is stamped onto another shape from the You've Been Framed layering dies. This is such an adorable release and I'm super excited to create from it!

Paper Dragonfly #13
It is time for our first challenge of the new year over at Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges. The challenge this month is special because Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges is celebrating its first birthday! I joined the design team in June so I've been lucky enough to participate in half of the challenges and I've really enjoyed each of them 💕
As part of the birthday celebrations, the theme for Challenge #13 is Party Time. You can use any party theme you want, there are so many possibilities! It could be birthday, New Year's, wedding, baby shower, anniversary, or anything else that you could throw a party for. My mind goes to pool party, graduation party or going away party because I'm planning a combo of the three for my exchange student in just a few months. There are so many options for this theme that it is hard to choose one!
For my card, I used the stamp set Bunny Ballet from The Rabbit Hole Designs. My daughter saw this stamp set a few weeks ago and asked me to make a birthday card for her friend. Her friend happens to be a ballerina and have a pet rabbit so this stamp set couldn't be more perfect. And with the Party Time challenge at Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges, the timing was also perfect.
I hope you'll join the challenge at Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges this month. It's such a fun theme and I'd love to see your creations. For challenge details and design team inspiration, check out the blog!

Once Upon a Time #6
Happy New Year! It's hard to believe that we are in the year 2023! Since it's the first of the month, that means a new challenge is starting today at Once Upon a Time Challenge Blog! This month's book is The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats. It's a cute story about a little boy excited to play in the snow. The inspiration for my card comes from the snowy hill and footsteps on the cover. I used a border die to create a hill and blended some pink, blue and green ink to look similar, but not exact, to the cover of the book. I used a stamp set from The Stamps of Life for the fox and his cute little paw prints. The inside says "it's your birthday" and I stamped another set of paw prints across the inside corner.
