Farm Animal Waterfall Card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Posted on February 4, 2023January 24, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing ideas for pop-up cards. I have to share a waterfall card made using the gorgeous Day At The Farm dsp.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the farm animal waterfall card, you will need:

Garden Green card base – 11¾” by 4⅛” – scored at 5⅞”
Basic White card 5 ½” by 3 ¾” x 2
Day At The Farm dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Garden Green card – 8⅝” by 2¾” – Scored at 1¾”, 2½”, 3¼” & 4”
Garden Green card – 4⅛” by 1”
Pear Pizzazz card – 2⅝” by 2⅝” x 3
Basic White card –2½” by 2½” x 3
Pear Pizzazz card – 2⅝” by 1⅝”
Basic White – 2½” by 1½”
Scrap Day At The Farm dsp
Scrap Basic White & Daffodil Delight

Glue the 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Day At The Farm dsp to one of the large panels of Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Use the same glue to add the panel to the Garden Green card base.

Adhere the small strip of Garden Green card about 2¼” up from the bottom of the card front. Use strong adhesive such as Tear & Tape or Snail Plus as this piece gets a lot of pulling about.

Next, insert the 4⅝” (longest side) end of the scored 8⅝” strip of Garden Green card into the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch; it is wider than the opening so is a bit of a fiddle. Push it right to the end then punch. Pull it out and trim off the extra piece on each side.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Day At The Farm designer series paper used to make a pretty animal themed waterfall card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Fold on all the score lines and slip the punched scalloped end of the Garden Green card under the strip of card you have just glued across the card. The scored part of the card will then be on top of the band. Using strong adhesive glue along the top of the scored panel – face down – adhere the piece to the bottom end of the band. This forms the waterfall mechanism.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Day At The Farm designer series paper used to make a pretty animal themed waterfall card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Use liquid adhesive at the top of each of the 2⅝” by 2⅝” panels of Pear Pizzazz and the 2⅝” by 1⅝” panel of Pear Pizzazz , adhere them to the small scored strips of the waterfall panel.

Using a Blending Brush add Balmy Blue ink to the 3 panels of Basic White measuring 2½” by 2½”. Cut down some of the dsp to create the effect of grass at the bottom of each of the Basic White panels.

Die cut some of the animals from the dsp using the On The Farm Dies and add then to the inked panels. Die cut some clouds using the same set of dies and glue parts of clouds to each panel before mounting the panels onto the larger Pear Pizzazz card layers.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Day At The Farm designer series paper used to make a pretty animal themed waterfall card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Stamp the sentiment in Garden Green ink onto the 2½” by 1½” piece of Basic White, add 2 ducks die cut using the same set of dies and glue to the smaller panel of Pear Pizzazz.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Day At The Farm designer series paper used to make a pretty animal themed waterfall card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Add a die cut goose to the final Basic White panel and glue to the back of the panel with the punched scalloped bottom. Add a piece of White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon to act as a pull tab and the card is complete.

I inked up the ‘sea’ stamp from the Oceanfront stamp set with Bermuda Bay at the top and Coastal Cabana ink at the bottom of the stamp. I stamped down onto the wet Fluid 100 card.

I left the panel to dry a little before stamping the ‘sand’ image, again from the Oceanfront stamp set in Crumb Cake ink. I used a Heat Tool to completely dry the stamped background before moving onto the next step.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A tropical themed card made using the Oceanfront and Paradise Palms stamp sets for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Using the Stamparatus I stamped the tree trunks from the Paradise Palms stamp set in Crumb Cake ink. I like to use the Stamparatus with Watercolor card as I can stamp multiple times to get the depth of colour and definition I want. The palm tree tops were added with Old Olive ink using the Stamparatus. The whole panel was then glued to the Crumb Cake layer and then added to the Tahitian Tide card base on Dimensionals.

A Tuscan Cypress Tree themed thank you card made for the Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop using the Thanks A Bunch stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Tuscan Cypress Trees for the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

Posted on January 12, 2023January 7, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop where we are expressing our gratitude with thank you cards. Mine is inspired by a card made by my upline, the lovely Mikaela Titheridge using the Thanks A Bunch stamp set.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the Tuscan Cypress card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Balmy Blue card – 5¾” by 4” – rounded upper left corner
Shaded Spruce card – 4⅞” by 2½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 4 ¾” by 2⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White strip – ⅜” wide
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner

I stamped the large solid carrot, upside down, in Shaded Spruce ink onto the small panel of Basic White and added the shadow image using Evening Evergreen ink. These ‘trees’ remind me so much of the Cypress Trees common in Tuscany. The smaller trees were stamped in 1^st and 2^nd generation Old Olive ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Thanks A Bunch stamp set used to make a Tuscan Cypress Tree themed thank you card for the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

I added the ground using one of the images from the Oceanfront stamp set in Soft Succulent ink.

The short grass was added with 1^st and 2^nd generation Old Olive ink using the shadow from the large carrot stamped from side to side. I added the larger tufts of grass from the Oceanfront stamp set in the same Old Olive ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Thanks A Bunch stamp set used to make a Tuscan Cypress Tree themed thank you card for the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

Using a Blending Brush I added Balmy Blue ink to the sky have masked off a small circle for the sun/moon. The decorated panel was then adhered to the layer of Shaded Spruce.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Thanks A Bunch stamp set used to make a Tuscan Cypress Tree themed thank you card for the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

I stamped some dotage in the upper left and lower right of the Balmy Blue panel but didn’t really like it. I then ran the panel through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. I liked this better. I wrapped a piece of Variegated Ribbon around the panel before gluing it to the Balmy Blue card front and adding the stamped panel over top on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Thanks A Bunch stamp set used to make a Tuscan Cypress Tree themed thank you card for the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop
