Seashells One Sheet Wonder Cards for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Posted on April 15, 2023April 1, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using something that is about to retire from the 2022 – 2023 Annual Catalogue which retires at the end of this month. I have chosen to share a project using the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set, one of my favourites and I am so sad to see it go. I have also used 3 of the colours which are also retiring, So Saffron, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz.

Colours used in this project are:

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

Basic White card – 11¾” by 4⅛”
Co-ordinating card bases x 4 – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Co-ordinating layers cut to 5⅝” by 3⅞” or 5½” by 3¾” or 5⅜” by 3⅝”

www.crafty-rootes.com – The retiring Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set used to make a one sheet wonder for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

I began by stamping the largest image in So Saffron ink and added the second largest in Blushing Bride ink.

Shells stamped in Balmy Blue ink and Petal Pink ink. The little starfishes were added in Fresh Freesia ink.

I added the sea weed in Pear Pizzazz ink and then filled in the blank spaces using the spotty stamp and Pool Party ink.

The completed sheet was then cut into 4 panels, each measuring 5⅞” by 4⅛”. I looked at each panel in turn, deciding whether they would be made into portrait or landscape cards.

www.crafty-rootes.com – The retiring Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set used to make a one sheet wonder for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

I stamped a sentiment on each panel in Basic Gray ink before cutting each panel down to either 5½” by 3¾” or 5¼” by 3½”. These were then glued to the co-ordinating panels using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The trees were stamped at the base of the mountains in Garden Green ink. I inked the same tree image in Smoky Slate ink, stamped it off onto grid paper and stamped it upside down below the trees. I stamped it repeatedly until no ink remained.

Using the retired ¾” circle punch, I punch a circle from a Post It Note and added it above the mountains. I used a Blending Brush to add Smoky Slate ink to the sky and also around all four edges. The mask was then removed. The panel was then glued to the Basic Black layer with liquid glue and then mounted the panel onto the Garden Green card front using Dimensionals.

An anniversary card made using the pair of ducks from the Stylish Sketches stamp set for a watercolor challenge

Pair of Ducks Anniversary Card for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on July 12, 2022July 3, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are showcasing projects using water colouring techniques. I have used the sweet image of a pair of ducks from the Stylish Sketches stamp set to make an anniversary card.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the pair of ducks’ card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”

A length of Very Vanilla Twine, from the Essentials Baker’s Twine pack was wrapped around the panel three times and secured with Sellotape. The decorated panel was then added to the Crumb Cake card Base with Mini Glue Dots to accommodate the twine and give a shadow effect.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pair of ducks anniversay card made using the Stylish Sketches stamp set for the Technique Tuesday Watercolor Blog Hop

I positioned the pretty stamp onto the Stamparatus Plate and placed the larger panel of Shimmery White card beneath it. I love using Shimmery White as it holds the water better than Basic White card and has a delicate sheen which is so pretty. The image was stamped in Early Espresso ink, I repeated this step to get a good dark image.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pair of ducks anniversay card made using the Stylish Sketches stamp set for the Technique Tuesday Watercolor Blog Hop

Using re-inkers dropped into the top of my ink pads, I coloured in the image using a Waterpainter. The colours I used for the ducks were Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Pool Party & So Saffron and I used Balmy Blue for the sky and Pear Pizzazz for the grass.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pair of ducks anniversay card made using the Stylish Sketches stamp set for the Technique Tuesday Watercolor Blog Hop

After the panel had dried, I added it to the Petal Pink panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I placed a heavy acrylic block on top to reduce the warping that you often get with watercolouring. The whole piece was then mounted onto the card base with Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pair of ducks anniversay card made using the Stylish Sketches stamp set for the Technique Tuesday Watercolor Blog Hop

The sentiment from the Ringed With Nature stamp set was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the thin strip of Shimmery White card. This was then tucked under the stamped piece.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty anniversary card made using the Shaded Summer stamp set and the spotlight technique
