Welcoming Woods for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on August 13, 2021August 13, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where it is all about the males today. I have chosen to use the Welcoming Woods stamp set to make my card. Whether you have hopped over from Cheryl’s blog, loved her project or have started with me, please continue to hop to see what inspiration others have to share today.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the welcoming woods card, you will need:

Soft Suede card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Balmy Blue card – 4¾” by 3⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 4½” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Basic White card – ¼” strip

I stamped the tree trunks from the Welcoming Woods stamp set in Soft Suede ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White. I love all the texture and definition you get in this image; the trunks look so real.

The ‘ground’ was stamped in 2^nd generation Soft Suede ink to give the effect of an horizon.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Welcoming Woods stamp set used for a masculine themed card for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

I punched a circle using the 1” Circle Punch, placed it over the tree trunks to provide a ‘moon’. Using a Blending Brush I added Balmy Blue ink, lightly from the horizon line to the top of the card. I kept the colour light as I wanted a wintery sky effect. The masked circle was then removed.

The ground was coloured with a Blending Brush and Crumb Cake ink and I added the speckles from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in 2^nd and 3^rd generation Soft Suede ink to give the ground some texture. The stamped panel was added to the Balmy Blue layer with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using Soft Suede ink, I stamped the leaves from the Welcoming Woods stamp set onto the Soft Suede card front and added the stamped panel on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set was stamped on the strip of Basic White card and trimmed down and flagged with Scissors before I was added to the card.

A pretty sailing diaroma made using Stampin' Up! products for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Sailing Diorama card for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Posted on August 8, 2021August 3, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo blog hop where I have made a sailing diorama using this months colours which are:

Gray Granite

Gorgeous Grape

Bermuda Bay

And I have added a tiny bit of Daffodil Delight for the light of the lighthouse

Daffodil Delight

To recreate the Sailing Diorama card, you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Gray Granite card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

I began by using the Layering Diorama dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut the centre from the 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White. I put the centre piece to one side.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A Sailing Diorama card made for the Colour Combo Blog Hop and using the Sailing Home and Mountain Air stamp sets

Using Blending Brushes, I added Gray Granite ink to the bottom of the outer panel and Bermuda Bay ink to the upper part of the outer panel. I added some texture to the bottom using the dotty image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set and Gray Granite ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A Sailing Diorama card made for the Colour Combo Blog Hop and using the Sailing Home and Mountain Air stamp sets

Taking the inner piece I stamped the mountains, from the Mountain Air stamp set in Gray Granite ink and muddied the bottom using the small ‘cloud’ image from the Mountain Air stamp set in 2^nd and 3^rd generation Gray Granite. The sea and sky were both inked with Bermuda Bay ink, I just went lighter with the sky and added a 1” circle mask for the moon. The sea texture was added using a stamp from the Arctic Bears stamp set in Bermuda Bay. I place the 2 pieces of inked card together and stamped some birds, from the Mountain Air stamp set, randomly in the sky.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A Sailing Diorama card made for the Colour Combo Blog Hop and using the Sailing Home and Mountain Air stamp sets

The inner piece was then glued to the Gray Granite panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. And the outer piece added on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A Sailing Diorama card made for the Colour Combo Blog Hop and using the Sailing Home and Mountain Air stamp sets

Using the Stamparatus, I stamped the lighthouse, from the Sailing Home stamp set in Gray Granite ink and repeated the step to get a slightly darker colour. I used a Blender Pen to add ink and to smooth out the colour a little. I also added a little Daffodil Delight ink as a lighthouse is nothing without a light! The lighthouse was added with glue and Dimensionals overlapping the inset panel.

The smaller boat from the Sailing Home stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and coloured with the Blender Pen and ink. The boat was added onto the inset layer with liquid glue.

Such a sweet card. I hope you like it.

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp, Share Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Christmas in July’. We have so many lovely Christmas goodies coming in the new July – December 2021 Mini Catalogue that we can sometimes overlook the Christmas sets in the Annual Catalogue.
