The In The Pines stamp set used to make an Christmas card for the Hopping Around the World blog hop

Holiday Mini Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Thank you for joining me today for the Stamp ‘n Hop blog hop where our theme this month is ‘Holiday Mini’. I love this time of year with Autumn and Christmas…… so many lovely things to chose from. If you have hopped on from the lovely Sandra Hertzog, I am sure you loved her project. You are now with Mo Rootes in the UK.

I have chosen to use the In the Pines stamp set to make a fairly simple card.

To recreate the Holiday Mini card you will need:

Pool Party card base – – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Early Espresso – 5 ¼” by 3 ½”
Whisper White – 5” by 3 ¼”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside
Scrap Early Espresso

I placed the smaller panel of Whisper White in the Stamparatus, upper right corner and set up the outline of the large pine tree on one of the panels. I stamped the image with the Early Espresso ink on the left, moved along one step and stamped again without re-inking. I inked again with the same ink and repeated both steps to give 4 trees.

I lined up the inner tree image on top of the 1st stamped tree and picked it up with the back of the plate. I inked it up with Shaded Spruce ink and stamped it onto the first tree then moved along one hinge step to stamp the second tree and repeated the process.

Using a sponge I added Pool Party ink around the tree to give a ‘sky’  and stamped the ground beneath each tree  and the tree trunks in Early Espresso ink. The stamped layer was added to the Early Espresso layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped a length of Linen Thread around the the panel and tied it in a bow. The panel was then adhered to the Pool Party card base using the liquid glue.

Coming Home stamp set and Homecoming dies used for September 2020 classes - such a versatile set

Coming Home Bundle used for September Classes

It was such fun being able to hold a couple of small, socially distanced classes this week and so lovely to see some of my lovely crafting friends and catch up with their news. I decided to kick classes off by using the very versatile Coming Home stamp set and Home Together dies.

To recreate the new Coming Home card you will need

Gray Granite card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – scored on the long side at 4⅛”
Gray Granite – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Whisper White – 4 ¼” by 3 ¼”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty trio of cards made using the Coming Home Bundle by Stampin’ Up!

This card was CASE’d from my lovely upline Mikaela Titheridge – check out her original here  – with a few tweaks of my own.

We embossed the Gray Granite layer using the Brick and Mortar embossing folder and glued it to the Gray Granite card base.

I had die cut ahead of time the stitched rectangle using the Stitched So Sweetly dies. The ladies stamped the medium and small house onto the rectangle in Gray Granite ink and added the panel to the card front.

The larger house and the small tree were stamped in the same ink and die cut using the Home Together dies. The following Blends were used to colour in the die cut house and tree – Gray Granite, Just Jade, Poppy Parade, So Saffron, Misty Moonlight and Balmy Blue. The house was them added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I had die cut the heart for the ladies and the words ‘hooray and welcome’ from the Well Written dies. The ladies trimmed off the HO of hooray and the OME of welcome and glued the o’s one on top of the other to create the word HOME. The word New came from the Well Said stamp set  – -time for a NEW adventure and was stamped on scrap Whisper White and trimmed out with scissors. To complete the card we added a White Baker’s Twine bow.

To recreate the row of cars card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – scored on the long side at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight – 5¾” by 4” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5¾” by 1½”
Poppy Parade – 6” by 1 ½”
Scrap Whisper White

I made this card for the son of a friend who has just passed his driving test.

We embossed the Misty Moonlight panel using the brick and Mortar embossing folder and added it to the Thick Whisper White card front.

The car were stamped across the thin strip of Whisper White card in Gray Granite ink leaving space to add the final card after it had been stamped, die cut and coloured.

The Poppy Parade border was cut using the Ornate Borders dies and added to the back of the stamped layer. The whole strip was then added to the card front.

We stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set on a scrap strip of Whisper White in Misty Moonlight ink. The negative scallop from the Poppy Parade border was added as a little pop of colour. To finish we wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the sentiment and tied it in a bow.

To recreate the Snowy House card you will need:

Just Jade card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – scored on the long side at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside – rounded upper left corner – one for the inside and one for the outside

The final card is a Christmas card – yay…… We used a blending brush (you could use a wedge of sponge or a dauber) to add Balmy Blue ink to one of the Whisper White panel. The panel was then added to the Misty Moonlight layer.

We stamped the house and large tree in Gray Granite ink onto scrap Whisper White card and die cut them. They were coloured in using the same Blends Markers.

The houses were positioned on the card front and snowflakes were stamped around the roof before the house and tree were stuck down with Dimensionals. The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink.

A piece of Poppy Parade ribbon was wrapped around the layer and tied in a bow. The whole panel was then added to the Just Jade card front.

I added colour to the masked area using sponges. I started with Blushing Bride ink, then Purple Posy ink and finally Pool Party ink blending each colour into the next.

I removed the Post It Notes and stamped the snowflakes in Misty Moonlight ink overlapping the masked area.

Finally I spritzed the card with Clear Wink of Stella to give it some sparkle.

A pretty Autumnal card made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Life is Beautiful

Here is a sweet card made for a team challenge the theme being ‘Animals or Nature’ and using the gorgeous new stamp set Life is Beautiful.

To recreate the Life is Beautiful card you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Garden Green 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Very Vanilla 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper right corner

 I stamped the tree image from the Life is Beautiful stamp set in Soft Suede ink onto one of the Whisper White panels, adding the ground in 2nd generation Garden Green ink.

The leaves were stamped using 1st and 2nd generation Cherry Cobbler ink and 1st and 2nd generation Cinnamon Cider ink. I love the effect this gives, very Autumnal.

Using a Cherry Cobbler Stamp n Write Marker I inked up the cute little bird house and rope. I used the Misty Moonlight marker to colour the birds, huffed on the coloured stamp to re-activate the ink and stamped it down. So pretty…..

The sentiment from the same stamp set was added in Garden Green ink to the bottom of the stamped panel and the panel was then adhered to the Garden Green layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

A piece of Linen Thread was wrapped around the panel and tied in a bow.

 

The whole piece was then mounted onto the Crumb Cake card base using Dimensionals.
