The Quiet Meadow stamp set and Meadow Dies by Stampin' Up! used to make a pretty card

Shabby Chic Meadow

Posted on May 14, 2021May 10, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a card made for a recent team challenge where our theme was ‘Shabby Chic’. This is so out of my comfort zone. I like clean and simple cards, bright colours so this topic was enough to bring me out in a rash……..

Colours used in this project are:

Blushing Bride

Crumb Cake

Very Vanilla

To recreate the shabby chic meadow card, you will need:

Blushing Bride card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Crumb Cake – 5½” by 3¾”
Blushing Bride – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Very Vanilla – 5½” by 3¾”
Very Vanilla – 2¼” by 1¾”
Scrap Very Vanilla & Crumb Cake

Using 2^nd generation Blushing Bride ink, I stamped the flower randomly all over the Blushing Bride panel. I added the scripty stamp using 2^nd and 3^rd generation Crumb Cake ink. Whilst I had the ink out I stamped in Crumb Cake ink in opposite corners of the Blushing Bride card front.

I ripped down the right side of the stamped panel – quite enjoyed it once I got started…… I inked around the edge of the stamped panel with a Sponge Dauber and Crumb Cake ink. I ripped down the right side of the Crumb Cake panel, stamped down the side with the speckled stamp before inking around the panel using the Dauber and Crumb Cake ink.

Using a Bone Folder, I broke down the fibres in the upper left corner of both the Crumb Cake panel and the Blushing Bride panel. This allowed me to pull the layers apart and curl the corner. The layers were then adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped some of the gorgeous and sadly retired Blushing Bride Metallic Ribbon around the panel before adding the panel to the Blushing Bride card base.

I die cut a Very Vanilla Label from scarp Very Vanilla card using the Tasteful Labels dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Flowers of Friendship stamp set in Blushing Bride ink. I added the scripty image on the label in 2^nd & 3^rd generation Crumb Cake ink and inked around the edges in Crumb Cake ink and added it over the ribbon on Dimensionals.

Using the Meadow dies I die cut 2 flowers from scrap Very Vanilla card. I stamped the speckled image over the die cut flowers and adhered them to the card front with liquid glue.

To complete the card, I tucked a strip of Lace Trim under the sentiment label and added a trio of Champagne Rhinestones.

I actually really like this card when it was finished. I hope you like it also.

Hello and welcome to the Kylie Bertucci Demonstrator Training Blog Hop where we are sharing the thank you cards made for our customers. You are currently with Mo Rootes from near Cambridge in the UK. This month I have made a thank you cookies card using the lovely Nothing’s Better Than stamp set. Who can resist a cookie?

Colours used in this project are:

Crumb Cake

Early Espresso

Basic White

To recreate the Thank you Cookies card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Early Espresso – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 3” by 1¾”

Taking one of the larger panels of Basic White I drew around the inside of one of the Tasteful Label Dies in the centre of the panel. This gave me a frame around which I could stamp the image.

www.crafty-rootes.com -A simple thank you card made using the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Blog Hop

I stamped the image of the cookie onto 2 Post It Notes and cut them out using sharp scissors. I used these as masks when stamping the images.

www.crafty-rootes.com -A simple thank you card made using the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Blog Hop

Using Early Espresso ink, I stamped the first cookie. I placed a mask over the stamped image and stamped again in 2^nd generation Early Espresso ink. I continued stamping and masking around the pencil shape.

www.crafty-rootes.com -A simple thank you card made using the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Blog Hop

Using the in-fill stamp I coloured the images in 1^st and 2^nd generation Crumb Cake ink, masking in the same way. The stamped panel was added to the Crumb Cake card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The same glue was used to add the panel to the Crumb Cake card base.

The spray of flowers was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the wider panel of Basic White card. I cleaned the stamp and used a Post It Note to mask off the stem, flower and leaf to the right of the centre stem, inked up with the Early Espresso ink, removed the Post It Note and stamped to the left of the original image.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap strip of Basic White card. I used the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch to punch the sentiment out and punch a slightly larger label for a strip of Granny Apple Green.
