Clarice Surprise


It’s my video day over on The Rabbit Hole Designs YouTube page!


Hey All! Today is my video day! How cool that I got to post on Valentines. Since this month’s new release is not out yet I grabbed an older stamp set that is actually ON SALE right now, and so is the die. It’s called Clarice Surprise, and I chose it because she is holding a gift and a balloon easily making the transition to Valentine! Don’t forget to hop on over to YouTube to see me color and assemble this card, while being tongue tied and babbling about this and that! Now, on with the Show & Tell…


Once again I have used both Olo and Copic Markers. Here the red balloon, bows, ribbon and package are all Olo.


The small heart is cut from Shimmery paper, that and the sparkly embossed sentiment paired with some rhinestones give it all the Valentine Bling!


I debated putting 3D Crystal lacquer on the balloon, actually adding it after this blog post and video were done. Scroll to the bottom, I added a photo of the card with the balloon lacquered.
