Pretty Pop Ups

Posted on June 24, 2022June 12, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a pretty card made using the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies and coloured using a Blending Pen. I don’t actually own these dies but one of my lovely friends and customer Becky, bought them and allowed me to use the dies. This card is for her.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Pretty Pop-Ups card, you will need:

Pale Papaya card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside – rounded upper left corner

I placed the small, oval Pretty Pop-Ups Die onto the smallest piece of Basic White card and added the two individual butterflies and the dragonfly dies. These were all run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

Using a Blender Pen, I coloured the leaves with Mink Macaron ink and the larger flower petals with Poppy Parade ink. The flower centres were added in So Saffron ink.

The tiny flower petals were coloured with Highland Heather ink and the centres added with So Saffron ink.

All the insect bodies ere coloured with Gray Granite ink. The sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set was stamped in Pool Party ink.

Using my Take Your Pick Tool, I pushed up all the pop-up pieces before using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to adhere the decorated panel to the slightly larger Basic White panel. I wrapped a length of White Baker’s Twine around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape.

A pretty floral card made using the pretty Vintage Christams stamp set for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

Vintage Bottle card for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

Posted on June 23, 2022July 3, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we have been given a colour challenge. I have chosen to use one of the sets I pre-ordered from the July – December Mini Catalogue called Vintage Christmas. I do love a set that co-ordinates with something I already have and this set pairs with the Vintage Bottle Punch.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Vintage Bottle card, you will need:

Melon Mambo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Starry Sky card – 3¾” by 2⅜”
Basic White card – 4” by 2¾”
Basic White card – 1½” by 1½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

I began by stamping the taller bottle with Starry Sky ink onto scrap Basic White card and punching it out using the Vintage Bottle Punch.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Vintage Christmas stamp set used to make a pretty floral card for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

Using Tahitian Tide ink, I stamped the smaller bottle onto the 4” by 2¾” panel of Basic White card. I placed the punched bottle overlapping the stamped bottle, for placement and stamped the trio of flowers in Melon Mambo ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Vintage Christmas stamp set used to make a pretty floral card for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

Using Parakeet Party ink, I stamped the single sprig around the flowers. I deliberately didn’t ink up the berries at the base of the sprig. The flower centres were added using the same ink. The tall bottle was then glued to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole panel was then die cut using a Stitched Rectangle Die. The stitched rectangle was then glued to the Starry Sky panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Vintage Christmas stamp set used to make a pretty floral card for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

Using the trio of flowers, I stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Melon Mambo card base using Melon Mambo ink. At this point I decided I needed more white in the background so I cut the 1½” square of Basic White card on the diagonal and added one triangle to the upper left corner and the other to the lower right corner of the stamped panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Vintage Christmas stamp set used to make a pretty floral card for the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop

The stamped piece was then added to the card front on Dimensionals. The sentiment, from the Cup of Tea stamp set was inked up in Starry Sky ink and stamped onto scrap Basic White card. I then trimmed it out, flagging the ends before I added it to the card front.

A bow made from the In Color Twine and a trio of Glossy Dots completed the card.
