Zany Bubbles

Posted on July 19, 2020July 12, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Oh my goodness I can’t get enough of these cute Zany Zebras and this naughty zebra is surrounded by zany bubbles.

To recreate the zany bubbles card you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Basic Black – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 4⅝” by 2⅞” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Scrap Basic Black and Whisper White

I began by stamping the the adorable zebra onto the smallest panel of Whisper White using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, love him kicking up his heels. I created a mask by stamping the image again on a Post It Note, fussy cutting it out and sticking it over the original stamped image.

Using the smaller bokeh image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set to add the bubbles around the zebra. Colours used were Blushing Bride, Highland Heather, Balmy Blue,Mango Melody and Magenta Madness. I used 1^st, 2^nd and even 3^rd generation stamping to add extra dimension.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A childs zany bubbles birthday card made using the Zany Zebras stamp set

I removed the mask and stamped the ‘ground’ image from the Zany Zebra stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink so that the poor zebra isn’t hovering in mid air.

I glued the stamped layer to the Basic Black layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and set it aside.

Using the same bokeh image I stamped around the the left side and the top of the Highland Heather card base using Highland Heather ink. The stamped panel was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Zany Zebras stamp set was stamped in Highland Heather ink onto scrap Whisper White and punched out using the Classic Label Punch. I punched another label from scrap Basic Black and offset it behind the sentiment and added it to the card front with adhesive.

Parisian Lovely You

Posted on July 17, 2020July 8, 2020 by Mo Rootes

This Parisian lovely you card began with a desire to use the embossed Petal Pink panel left over from another project. I paired it with the Lovely You stamp set for this soft, pretty feminine card.

To recreate the Parisian Lovely You card you will need:

Thick Whisper White – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Petal Pink – 8¼” by 5⅞” – embossed and cut diagonally to give 2 pieces
Brass Foil – 5” by ¼”
Whisper White – 4” by ¾”
Scrap Whisper White

Using a pencil I drew a line along the edge of the embossed piece onto the Thick Whisper White card base.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Parisian Lovely floral card made using the Lovely Yu stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

I stamped the images from the Lovely You stamp set, starting with the largest and over lapping the pencil line. I used Mint Macaron, Pool Party, Petal Pink, So Saffron & Flirty Flamingo ink to stamp the images.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Parisian Lovely floral card made using the Lovely Yu stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I added the Brass Foil strip to the top of the embossed Petal Pink layer and added it to the card front using the same glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Parisian Lovely floral card made using the Lovely Yu stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

The sentiment was stamped in Mint Macaron ink onto the ¾” strip of Whisper White card and the cut down using scissors. It was added to the card front with the same liquid glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Parisian Lovely floral card made using the Lovely Yu stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

On scrap Whisper White card I stamped 2 flowers and a sprig of leaves. These were cut out using sharp scissor and added to the card front using Mini Dimensinals. The leaf was tucked under the sentiment strip. I decorated the card with a scattering of Gold Glitter Enamel Dots.

Split Image Blossom card

Posted on July 14, 2020July 8, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a couple of split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set and Many Layered Blossom dies. Over the past couple of moths I have seen a number of demonstrators making split image cards and thought I would try it myself.

To recreate the Split Image Blossom card you will need:

Merry Merlot card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Calypso Coral – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside
Calypso Coral – 5½” by 5½” – to die cut for both cards

2nd card

Calypso Coral – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Merry Merlot – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside

I laid 2 of the Whisper White panels side by side, inked up the large floral image from the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set with Merry Merlot ink and stamped the image across the join of both panels.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

The most detailed large floral image was die cut using the Many Layered Blooms dies.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

I squeezed some Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto the corner of my Silicon Mat and dabbed it all over the back of the die cut piece and placed it over the stamped area which were still side by side.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

When the adhesive was dry I used my Paper Trimmer to cut the 2 layers apart.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

The stamped and die cut panels were added to either a Calypso Coral or a Merry Merlot layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then to the opposite colour card base.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped on both card fronts in Merry Merlot ink and the cards were completed with a trio of Holiday Rhinestones.

Water Coloured Peony

Posted on June 30, 2020June 23, 2020 by Mo Rootes

I have made a sweet water coloured peony card made using the gorgeous Prized Peony and the new Water Painter’s and I love them!!

To recreate the Water coloured Peony card you will need:

Gray Granite card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

Daffodil Delight – 5⅞” by ½”

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty card featuring a golden water coloured peony made using the Prized Peony stamp set

The large peony image was inked up using the Daffodil Delight Marker for the flower and Granny Apple Green Marker for the stem and leaves. I love that we can use the markers in this way. The image was stamped onto the Shimmery White panel. Using the Water Painters I coloured in the flower using only the ink on the stamped image. I did the same for the leaves and stems.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty card featuring a golden water coloured peony made using the Prized Peony stamp set

After the image dried I started adding Mango Melody ink to the shaded areas of the flower with the small Water Painter. This gives more definition to the flower. I left the panel to dry completely.
