An embossed Christmas card and using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks by Stampin' Up!

Adorning Designs for the Ink and Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop where we are showcasing tools. I have chosen to use the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks to make a pretty embossed and inked Christmas card.

Colours used in these projects are:

To recreate the Adorning Christmas card, you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Coastal Cabana card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 6” by 6” which I later cut down to 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Basic White card – 3” by 2”

I often forget about our masks but when I remember to use them, I love them. They are so versatile -did you know you can dry emboss using masks? This is only one of the cool techniques you can use masks for.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Firstly, I chose the snowflake mask from the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks set. I knew I wanted to emboss my cardstock using the mask but wasn’t quite sure how to do it. After a bit of trial and error I found that the best combination was:

Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine
Base plate (1)
Clear acrylic plate (3)
Silicon Mat
Basic White card
Mask
Gray 3D Embossing Plate (4)

I kept the mask in place on top of the card stock, taped the mask down to some Grid Paper to hold it still and began to add colour using Blending Brushes.

Next, I added Coastal Cabana ink, followed by Fresh Freesia ink and finally Highland Heather ink. I removed the mask and cut the panel down to 5½” by 3¾” using my Paper Trimmer.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I glued the embossed panel to the Coastal Cabana card layer.

I wrapped a length of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape and added the whole panel to the Highland Heather card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped on the small piece of Basic White card in Highland Heather ink. I used the Seasonal Labels dies to cut the sentiment out.

To complete the card, I added a bow made from the same ribbon and a trio of Pastel Pearls.

Tye-Dyed Penguin for the Backgrounds Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Background stamps Blog Hop where, surprise, surprise we are using a backgrounds in the project we are sharing. I have made a tye-dyed penguin card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the tye-dyed penguin card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Fresh Freesia card – 5⅜” by 5⅝”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 4⅜” – this will be trimmed down to 5¼” by 3½”
2021 – 2023 In Color Shimmer Paper – 3” by 3”
Scrap – Black Glimmer, Daffodil Delight & Basic White

Using my Stamparatus. I stamped the Spiral Dye using Fresh Freesia ink onto the large panel of Basic White card. Leaving the stamp in position I turned the Basic White panel around 180° and re-stamped the image in Pool Party ink. This gives a cute double swirl effect. Love it.

The panel was then trimmed down, using my Paper Trimmer to 5¼” by 3½”. The panel was then added to the Fresh Freesia panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The panel was then glued to the Thick Basic White card front using the same glue.

 

Using the Layering Circle Dies and Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut a circle from the square of In Color 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum.  This was adhered to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot in the centre.

I added a Wonderful Snowflake with a single dimensional in the centre in the middle of the shimmer vellum.

I punched the main part of the penguin from scrap Black Glimmer paper using the Penguin Builder Punch. The breast of the penguin was punched from Basic White card and glued it to the glimmer piece. The feet were punched from scrap Daffodil Delight card, they were added with Mini Glue Dot Mini Glue Dots. The beak was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink and the eyes were added with Matte Black Dots. The penguin was added to the card front with a blob of liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Deer stamp set in Versamark ink onto a scrap of Fresh Freesia card. I covered it with Black Embossing Powder and heat set it using a Heat Tool. It was added to the card front with liquid glue.

A trio of Pastel Pearls completed the card. I hope you like it.
