Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic Black card – 4⅛” by 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Rose Gold Glimmer – ¼” strip

Using the Penned Flower Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I die cut 4 of the gorgeous detailed flower groups.

I squeezed a blob of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto my Silicon craft sheet and picked the glue up with a Sponge Dauber. I dabbed the glue onto the back of the rose gold die cuts and added them to the square of Basic Black card.

An embossed Christmas card and using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks by Stampin' Up!

Adorning Designs for the Ink and Inspirations Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop where we are showcasing tools. I have chosen to use the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks to make a pretty embossed and inked Christmas card.

Colours used in these projects are:

To recreate the Adorning Christmas card, you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Coastal Cabana card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 6” by 6” which I later cut down to 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Basic White card – 3” by 2”

I often forget about our masks but when I remember to use them, I love them. They are so versatile -did you know you can dry emboss using masks? This is only one of the cool techniques you can use masks for.

I chose the snowflake mask for my project today and if we are talking about tools, as well as the Masks I am using our great Blending Brushes

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Firstly, I chose the snowflake mask from the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks set. I knew I wanted to emboss my cardstock using the mask but wasn’t quite sure how to do it. After a bit of trial and error I found that the best combination was:

Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine
Base plate (1)
Clear acrylic plate (3)
Silicon Mat
Basic White card
Mask
Gray 3D Embossing Plate (4)

I kept the mask in place on top of the card stock, taped the mask down to some Grid Paper to hold it still and began to add colour using Blending Brushes.

Beginning at the bottom I applied Pool Party ink – I think my Blending Brush wasn’t clean as it looks like Granny Apple Green!

Next, I added Coastal Cabana ink, followed by Fresh Freesia ink and finally Highland Heather ink. I removed the mask and cut the panel down to 5½” by 3¾” using my Paper Trimmer.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I glued the embossed panel to the Coastal Cabana card layer.

I wrapped a length of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape and added the whole panel to the Highland Heather card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped on the small piece of Basic White card in Highland Heather ink. I used the Seasonal Labels dies to cut the sentiment out.

I added the label to the card front, over the ribbon and secured it down with Mini Glue Dots.

To complete the card, I added a bow made from the same ribbon and a trio of Pastel Pearls.

I made a second card in the same way but this time when the mask was removed, I added the left-over colour on the Blending Brushes to the background.

Bright Leaves for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on by

May be an image of text that says "Stamp 'n Hop Current Stampin' Up!® Only OCTOBER Mini Catalogue"

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Mini Catalogue’. My favourite stamp set at the moment is the beautiful Gorgeous Leaves, any one who knows me knows I am a sucker for leaf sets……….don’t know what it is about them, just love leaves.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the bright leaves card, you will need:

Polished Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Merry Merlot card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 3¼” by 3¼”
Merry Merlot card – 3¼” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

I decided on which size circle die I was going to use for my sentiment and where I was going to position the sentiment on the card – then I drew round the inside of the die lightly with a pencil. This means I know where I need to position my images.

Using the large speckled stamp, I stamped around the pencil line in 2nd generation Blushing Bride. I just wanted a little of this colour in the background.

I then added the other leaves one colour at a time starting with the largest in Merry Merlot ink. Next came Polished Pink ink then Smoky Slate ink.

The tiny flowers were stamped in Basic Gray or Merry Merlot, I inked up one flower at a time. The stamp panel was then adhered to the Merry Merlot panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment, from the Biggest Wish stamp set was stamped in Basic Gray ink onto a circle die cut from the square of Basic White card using my chosen size of circle die. I adhered the stamped sentiment to a slightly larger Merry Merlot scalloped circle with liquid glue then cut the side off using my Paper Trimmer. It was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Blessing for the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Ink, Stamp. Share blog Hop where we are showcasing a project we have been working on. I am sharing a card made using the Season’s Blessing stamp set and an unusual colour combination.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Blessing card, you will need:

Coastal Cabana card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners
Misty Moonlight card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 4” by 2”

I began by embossing one of the larger Basic White panels using the gorgeous Timeworn Type Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cit & Emboss Machine. This embossed layer was then adhered to the Misty Moonlight panel and then to the Coastal Cabana card base with liquid glue.

Note of Thanks card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop

Posted on by

Here is a little note of thanks made using the pretty Season’s Blessings stamp set for the Kylie Bertucci demo training blog hop. Hello and welcome to my blog and to this months hop. I hope you will hop on to see what inspirations my demo friends have to share with us today.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the note of thanks card, you will need:

Daffodil Delight card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded lower left and upper right corners
Poppy Parade card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower left and upper right corners
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded lower left and upper right corners
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded lower left and upper right corners – for the inside
Basic White card – 3½” by 2½”

I chose a die from the Tasteful Labels Dies, placed it in the centre of the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White and drew round the inside lightly with a pencil. This helps with placement of the flowers and leaves.

I selected three flowers and 2 leaves from the Season’s Blessings stamp set. The largest flower was stamped in Poppy Parade ink, slightly over lapping the drawn shape. I added the next flower in Daffodil Delight and the smallest flower in Highland Heather ink.

The leaves were stamped in Just Jade and Garden Green.

Next, I added the flower centres in either Poppy Parade or Daffodil Delight and used the same flower centre in Highland Heather to add purple dots around the grouping of flowers. The whole panel was then glued to the Poppy Parade layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped White Baker’s Twine twice around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The panel was then added to the Daffodil Delight card base with glue.

Using my Mini Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut the chosen label from the small piece of Basic White. I stamped the sentiment in Highland Heather ink in the centre of the label and added it to the stamped panel on Dimensionals.

I added a double bow, made using the White Baker’s Twine to the side of the die cut label and added a trio of Gold Metallic Pearls to complete the card.

A sparkly blossom card made for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop using the Many Layered Blossom Die by Stampin' Up!

Sparkly Blossoms for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Posted on by

Here is a cute very sparkly blossoms card made for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where our theme is ‘make it sparkle’.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the sparkly blossoms card, you will need:

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic Black card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
De Dazzling Speciality dsp – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Red Foil card – 5½” by 3¾”

I used the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut out the gorgeous Blossom Die from both the Red Foil card and the Be Dazzling Speciality dsp. This gorgeous speciality paper is one of the free choices from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue which launches on the 3rd August.

Using the Take Your Pick Tool and the Die Brush attachment, I poked out all the pieces from the Be Dazzling die cut. I left the centre of each flower and some of the smaller leaves in situ.

Squeezing Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto my Silicon mat, I used a piece of Sponge to apply the glue to the outline Be Dazzling die cut piece. It was then added to the layer of Basic Black card.

Using the liquid glue, I then inlaid the flower petals from the die cut Red Foil piece. I love how it looks, so dramatic.

The layer of Basic Black was then mounted on the Basic Black card front using Black Dimensionals. I will add a sentiment before sending the card.
