Simply Hand-penned for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hog

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where the theme is ‘simple stamping’. If you have hooped on from the lovely Gez Carpenter I am sure you loved her project. I usually find simple stamping a bit of a challenge, can’t resist using lots of layers and bling. I made s simply hand-penned card using the lovely new Hand-penned Petals stamp set and it was so easy to create a sweet but simple card with this set.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the simply hand-penned card, you will need:

Soft Succulent card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2

I stamped the sweet image in Evening Evergreen ink onto one of the smaller Basic White panels.

Using the in-fill stamps I coloured the large flower with Polished Pink ink, the smaller flower with Pale Papaya ink and the leaves in Soft Succulent ink. I love these new colours.

Color & Contour stamp set by Stampin' Up! used to make a pair of cards using a modified one sheet wonder

Modified One Sheet Wonder

Posted on by

Today I am sharing 2 sweet floral cards made using a modified one sheet wonder (I only used ½ a sheet of card stock) and the new Color & Contour stamp set. This set is so versatile and so easy to use. I also used the gorgeous new 2021 – 2023 in colors.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the modified one sheet wonder cards, you will need:

Basic White card 7¾” by 5½”
Scrap Basic White for the sentiments

Polished Pink card base
Soft Succulent 5⅝ by 4”
Basic White 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

Evening Evergreen card base
Polished Pink 5⅝” by 4”
Basic White 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

I began by stamping the outline large flower in clusters of 3 down the centre of the large panel of Basic White. I used Evening Evergreen ink and 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamping.  The flowers were in-filled using the solid stamp and Polished Pink ink, again using 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamping.

The outline spray of flowers was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink, I chose not to ink up the full stem of this image. The infill colour for this image was stamped in 1st generation Pale Papaya ink

Next, I added an outline bud in 1st and 2nd generation Soft Succulent ink and added the Fresh Freesia ink as the fill in using 1st generation only.

The speckles were added in 2nd and 3rd generation Soft Succulent ink. When all this was done, I cut the panel in half on the long side at 3¾”. I wrapped a length of Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon around one of the panels.

I trimmed the Polished Pink piece on the left-hand side as I had managed not to cut the panel straight. They were then added to the Evening Evergreen and Polished Pink card bases on Dimensionals. I added a small piece of Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon to the Evening Evergreen card.

The sentiments came from the Many Messages stamp set, stamped using a Stamparatus on a panel of Basic White card and die cut using the Messages Dies. I keep the spares in a box for when I need a small sentiment, like today. They were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The chosen sentiments were added on Dimensionals to the card front.

Colorful Meadow for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing a colouring technique. I have made a lovely Colorful Meadow card using the Meadow Dies. You are currently with Mo Rootes from near Cambridge in the UK.

 Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the colourful meadow card, you will need:

Smoky Slate card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4 ⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
Poppy Parade – 5” by 3 ¼” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper left corner
Scrap Basic White

Taking the smaller Basic White panel and the spotty stamp from the Quiet Meadow stamp set I randomly stamped in Smoky Slate ink. I die cut a number of the Meadow Dies from scrap Basic White.

Using Sponge Daubers, I added colour to each flower. I used Old Olive and Just Jade inks for the stems and leaves.  The larger flower was coloured using Poppy Parade and Cherry Cobbler and the smaller flower coloured with Bumblebee and Poppy Parade. I dabbed the colour on and carefully and lightly sponged it over the die cut taking care not to bend or tear the fragile die cut pieces.

Dandy Wishes

Posted on by

I have been playing with the Dandy Wishes Dies today, working on ideas for a class in the mail and came up with this sweet card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Dandy Wishes card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White – 4½” by 3½”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic Black, Balmy Blue, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight

Using the 3 flower dies from the Dandy Wishes dies I cut lots of Balmy Blue flowers from scrap card. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue these to the Balmy Blue card base, trimming off the excess with scissors.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut a large Stitched Rectangle from the smaller Basic White panel and added it to the card base with Dimensionals.

The leaves and dandelion clock were die cut from scrap Old Olive and Basic Black card. These were added to the stitched rectangle with the liquid glue.

I die cut the same flowers from scrap Daffodil Delight card and used my Bone Folder to give the petals some shape. The same liquid glue was used to adhere the flower layers together.

I die cut the stem from Old Olive card and glued it to the back of the dandelion flower before adding it to the card front.

To complete the card, I added a Matte Black Dot.

Colour Combo Blog Hop April 2021

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo Blog Hop. If you have hopped over from ….’s blog I bet you loved her project. You are currently visiting Mo Rootes from near Cambridge in the UK.

The colours for this month’s challenge are:

 To recreate the Garden Wishes card, you will need:

Old Olive card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Cherry Cobbler – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla – 4¾” by 3” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla – 5½” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Scrap Very Vanilla, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler

To begin I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Old Olive ink and used Old Olive and So Saffron Blends Markers to colour the image in.

I decided the image needed something more and added a group of small flowers from the Grace’s Garden stamp set in Old Olive ink and coloured them in using the Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Blends.

The stamped layer was added to the Cherry Cobbler layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added a strip of Lace Trim to the side of the panel using Tear & Tape before adhering it to the Old Olive card front.

The sentiment from the Garden Wishes stamp set was stamped in Old Olive ink onto scrap Very Vanilla, trimmed out with sharp scissors. I mounted it on a scrap of Old Olive. It looked a little plain so I die cut the sweet edge strip from the Be Mine dies from a scrap of Cherry Cobbler card and cut it to fit.
