A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade dsp by Stampin' Up!

Using Designer Series Paper (dsp)

Posted on March 17, 2019March 16, 2019 by Mo Rootes

I don’t know about you but I buy our gorgeous Designer Series Paper (dsp). I admire it and stroke it and yes occasionally sniff it but I rarely use it………..what is that all about! So this year I have decided to do something about it. So with this in mind I got out thee beautiful Petal Promenade, found a sketch on Pinterest………I love Pinterest and set to work.

Making the Petal Promenade card

www.crafty-rootes.com – A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade designer series paper (dsp)

You will need;
Mossy Meadow card base
Calypso Coral 5⅝” by 3⅞”
DSP 5½” by 3 ¾”
Mossy Meadow 4⅜” by 2⅞”
DSP 4¼” by 2¾”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Scrap Whisper White and Calypso Coral

I started by selecting the dsp patterns I wanted to use – one busy pattern and one fairly solid pattern and cut them down to the sizes above using my Trimmer.

Next I chose and scored my card base and cut my Calypso Coral and Mossy Meadow layers and rounded the upper right corner of all the pieces using the Detailed Trio Punch and adhered them together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade designer series paper (dsp)

I stamped the sentiment from the Floral Frames stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink and stamped it onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and die cut it out using the Layering Circle framelit dies. I cut a slightly larger scalloped circle using the same set and a scrap piece of Calypso Coral cardstock. I glue these together with the Multipurpose Liquid Ahdhesive and added the sentiment to the layered pieces on Dimensionals.

The whole panel was then added to the Mossy Meadow card base with the multipurpose glue. I had a small Whisper White butterfly, punched out using the Butterfly Duet Punch, on my desk and added it to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot. The Basic Pearls were coloured using the dark Calypso Coral Blend pen and added to the butterfly and sentiment.

This is a really quick card; it took longer to choose the patterns to use than it did to make the card. I hope you like it.

Cute cards made using the Piece of Cake stamp set and Cake Builder Punch by Stampin' Up!

Piece of Cake for March Classes

Posted on March 15, 2019March 14, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the projects made at this week’s March classes where we focused on the gorgeous Piece of Cake stamp set and Cake Builder Bundle.

Joy Fold card

www.crafty-rootes.com – Piece of Cake stamp set and Cake Builder Punch used for March Classes

Thick Whisper White cardstock 8½” by 4¼” and scored it on the long side at 5½”
Thick Whisper White cardstock 8” by 3” and scored it on the long side at 4”
Call Me Clover cardstock 5⅜” by 4⅛”
Early Espresso piece 4⅛” by 2⅞”
Call Me Clover 3⅞” by 2⅞”
Whisper White cardstock 3¼” by 2¾”

We began by folding and burnishing the score lines. Next step was to randomly stamp the ‘dotty cake’ on a piece of Call Me Clover cardstock 5⅜” by 4⅛” in Call Me Clover ink. This layer was then added to the back panel of the larger scored panel. The Early Espresso piece was then added to the smaller panel of the same piece of Thick Whisper White. Both these panels were added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the Amazing Life stamp set was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the small piece of Whisper White. The word ‘CAKE’ was coloured in using the Light Call Me Clover Blends pen.

The cake was stamped in Early Espresso onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and the cake stand was stamped in the same ink onto scrap Call Me Clover cardstock. Both were then punched out using the co-ordinating Cake Builder Punch. The cake was coloured in using the following Blends Pens – Call Me Clover Combo, Lovely Lipstick combo, Balmy Blue combo and Bronze.

We used a Dimensional on the back to attach the cake to the cake stand and added a couple more dimensionals to hold the cake up before adding it to the stamped panel of Whisper White cardstock. This panel was then glued to the smaller layer of Call Me Clover before it was added to the small folded panel of Thick Whisper White being careful to have the fold the right way round…………

We stamped the candles in Call Me Clover ink onto the inner panel adding the sentiment in Early Espresso ink below the candles. Lastly we coloured in some of the Basic Pearls using the Blends pens and added them to the card front.

This card has a more masculine look which I really liked.

Happy Birthday Card

We randomly stamped the sentiment in 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd generation Lovely Lipstick ink down the left side of one of the large Whisper White panels. This panel was then added to the Early Espresso layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then glued to the Lovely Lipstick card base.

We stamped the cake onto the scrap Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Cake Builder Punch. The cake stand was punched from some of the gorgeous Lovely Lipstick Foil. We used the Blends pens to colour in the cake. We adhered them together with Dimensionals in the same way as the first card.

The cake was added to the stitched white rectangle, then to the stitched Early Espresso rectangle. We added the whole piece to the card front with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The Basic Pearls were then coloured in and added to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink although some of the ladies chose a different sentiment or no sentiment at all.

The cake was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto scrap Whisper White and punched out as above. We also punched out a plain white cake stand. The cake was coloured in using the same Blends pens as before and the cake and stand were adhered together with Dimensionals. The cake was then added on top of the ‘bokeh dots’.

The stamped layer was added to the strip of Lovely Lipstick Foil. The coloured Basic Pearls were added to the card front.

I also stamped the leaves in Granny Apple Green ink onto Granny Apple Green cardstock and die cut them. Finally I die cut the small flowers in both Berry Burst cardstock and Coastal Cabana cardstock.

I added all the pieces to a layer of Whisper White cardstock, 5¼” by 3½” using either Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive or Stampin Dimensionals. This decorated panel was layered onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” with Multipurpose glue. The whole topper was then added to a Berry Burst card base. I added a trio of Glitter Enamel Dots to add a little shine to the card.

A watercolor male birthday card made using the Sale-a-Bration stamp set By the Bay

By the Bay for a Masculine Birthday card

Posted on March 13, 2019March 7, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the card I made for my husband’s birthday. I used the Sale-a-Bration stamp set called By the Bay which has some lovely pencil style sketches on a seaside theme.

Making the By the Bay card

I started with a card base of Balmy Blue cardstock 8” by 7 ½” and scored it at 4” on the long side to make a long thin card.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card made using the By the Bay stamp set

I cut a piece of Watercolor Paper 5¼” by 2” and inserted it into my Stamparatus. I placed the image of the group of seabirds onto the Water color Paper, closed the panel of the Stamparatus to pick up the stamp. I then inked the stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it down. Using the Stamparatus gives me the chance to re-stamp the image if it isn’t dark enough. I moved the stamp along the panel to give a row of birds and set it aside to dry.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card made using the By the Bay stamp set

Using an Aqua painter I applied ink to color the image. I used Balmy Blue and Blueberry Bushel inks for the water, Gray Granite for the birds and Mossy Meadow for the background.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card made using the By the Bay stamp set

I mounted the stamped panel onto a layer of Blueberry Bushel cardstock measuring 5½” by 2¼” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added a panel of Whisper White cardstock 6” by 2¾” using the same glue.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card made using the By the Bay stamp set

The whole piece was added to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and I added some Clear Wink of Stella to the water for a little glimmer.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card made using the By the Bay stamp set

I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock 7” by 3 ½” to the inside having stamped the same group of birds on the panel. I also stamped the same image on an envelope.

A very clean and simple card, hope you like it.

Making the Embossed Tea Together card

I added the Mint Macaron to the saucer to pull the colours together.

A Peter Rabbit Easter card for the Stamp 'n Hop blog hop challenge

Fable Friends Easter Stamp ‘n Hop

Posted on March 8, 2019March 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to this month’s Stamp ‘n hop Blog Hop where the theme is Easter. If you have joined me from the lovely Sandra then welcome, my name is Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK. I hope you enjoy my project.

Making the Easter card

I started by taking a piece of Window Sheet about 5 ½” by 3 ¾” and ran it through the Big Shot with the large die from the Doily Builder Die set. This effectively created a stencil for me to use to make the background of the card.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘n Hop Easter Challenge using Fable Friends

I laid the stencil onto a piece of Whisper White measuring 5⅛” by 3⅜” and holding it firmly in place I inked it up using So Saffron, Flirty Flamingo and Grapefruit Grove inks applied using Sponge Daubers. I rounded the upper right corner using the Detailed Trio Punch and added the inked piece to a panel of So Saffron cardstock with the same corner rounded using Multipurpose liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘n Hop Easter Challenge using Fable Friends

I then stamped the cute little Peter Rabbit image in Gray Granite ink onto a scrap piece of Watercolor Paper and die cut it out using the Stitched Shapes framelits and my Big Shot. I used Crumb Cake, So Saffron and Flirty Flamingo inks and an Aqua Painter to paint the rabbit.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘n Hop Easter Challenge using Fable Friends

I used the Layering Oval dies to cut a scalloped oval and added it to the back of the stamped piece using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Grapefruit Grove Grosgrain Ribbon around the inked panel and secured it on the back with Sellotape.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘n Hop Easter Challenge using Fable Friends

The oval topper piece was added to the panel, over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a bow of the same ribbon added with a Mini Glue Dot. The sentiment was added to the card front with Flirty Flamingo ink. The whole panel was then added to a Crumb Cake card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I finished off by adding a trio of Share What You love Artisan Pearls.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘n Hop Easter Challenge using Fable Friends

I used the stencil and inks in the same way to decorate a piece of Whisper White measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” and adhered it to the inside of the card. I used the same technique to colour the front of the envelope.

Such a pretty card, I hope you like it. Please hop on the see what Jenna has to share with us.

Making the High Tide card

A lighthouse at High Tide for a lovely seaside themed masculine birthday card

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card featuring the High Tide stamp set

I began by taking a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 4⅛ by 2” and stamping the ‘ground’ image in 1^st and 2^nd generation Sahara Sand ink. I then placed the piece of cardstock in my Stamparatus as I find the lighthouse images much easier to line up using this stamping tool. The lighthouse was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and Real Red ink.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A masculine birthday card featuring the High Tide stamp set

The tufts of grass were then added in Mossy Meadow ink and the birds in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The stamped panel was added to a layer of Blueberry Bushel cardstock measuring 4⅛” by 2⅛”.

I stamped the boats from the Lilypad Lake stamp set onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and die cut them using the Lakeside framelit dies and the Big Shot. The boats were then coloured using Blueberry Bushel, Call Me Clover, Real Red and Crumb Cake markers.

The Lighthouse panel was added to the Balmy Blue card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals and the boats were then added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I laid the stamped panel onto the front of a Flirty Flamingo card base and marked lightly with a pencil down the right side. I lifted the panel away, inked up the lollipop image and stamped it down the card using the pencil line as a guide. The pencil line was then erased when the ink had dried.
