Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by two weather related photographs, one Winter and one Summer. I chose the Winter picture as my inspiration and used the Leaves of Holly stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the painted fox card, you will need:

Starry Sky card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Garden Green card – 5⅝” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Ringed With Love dsp – 3 ½” by 2”

I began by gluing the 3 panels of Ringed With Love designer series paper to the 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White card using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This panel was then embossed using the Painted Textures Embossing Folder, doesn’t it look great?

The embossed panel was then glued to the Garden Green layer and then to the Starry Sky layer using the same liquid glue.

The stitched circle was lying on my desk, left over from another project and had been die cut, using the Stylish Shapes Dies and a 3¼” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card.

I inked the grass using a Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker and the fox using a Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write Marker. I huffed on the stamp to re-moisten the ink and stamped down on the circle. I repeated the re-inking to get a darker image. I used a water Painter to blend out the ink n the fox and set it to dry.

A sketch challenge for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop using the Heart & Home dsp and Soft Seedlings stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Soft Seedlings for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we have been given a sketch to work with today. I have used the Heart and Home designer Series paper which is retiring at the end of this month and the Soft Seedlings stamp set which will be available from the 1st July.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the soft seedlings stamp set, you will need:

Pear Pizzazz card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Heart and Home dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Heart & Home dsp – 3¼” by 2⅛”
Basic White card – 3⅝” by 2⅜”
Parakeet Party card – 2⅛” by ⅜”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”

 

Using the blade of my Scissors I roughed up the edges of the largest panel of Heart & Home dsp and added Garden Green ink with a Dauber to define the edge. The lower right corner was curled using a Bone Folder and the panel was glued to the Pear Pizzazz card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I inked the largest image from the Soft Seedlings stamp set with Pear Pizzazz ink and added Garden Green ink and Parakeet Party ink using Daubers. The image was stamped onto the small piece of Basic White card. I repeated this step to fill up the panel. The panel was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Sea Themed Card For A Special Birthday

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are sharing fancy fold cards. My sea themed card was made for our niece’s special birthday and the theme reflects her love of the sea, swimming and diving.

Rings of Love dsp – 5¼” by 1½” x 2
Rings of Love dsp – 5¼” by 3¾”

Using my Bone Folder, I burnished the score-lines of both scored panels of card and set the smaller Starry Sky piece to one side.

I glued the panels of dsp to the long panels of Starry Sky card using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The largest piece was then glued to the larger panel of the Thick Basic White card. I skipped a panel and added one of the long thin pieces to the next panel. The final panel was adhered to the outermost panel of the card front. With the smaller panels on your left, you should have a decorated panel on the first flap, third panel and fifth or back panel.

I die cut the numbers from the, sadly retired, Large Number Dies and added them to one of the stamped panels with liquid glue. I added a trio of birds in flight around the numbers. The sentiment, from the Go To Greetings stamp set, was stamped in Starry Sky ink onto scrap Basic White card, trimmed down with scissors and added to the panel.
