A colour challenge for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop using the Stars Are Shining stamp set

Shining Baubles for the Ink Stamp Share Blog Hop

Posted on September 25, 2021September 23, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop where we have a colour challenge. We had to create a project using 3 of the following colours – Soft Succulent. Soft Sea Foam, Petal Pink, Polished Pink or Rich Razzleberry. I have chosen to make a shining bauble card using the following colours:

To recreate the shining bauble card, you will need:

Soft Succulent card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Soft Succulent card – 5⅞” by 4⅛”
Polished Pink card – 4 ¾” by 3 ½”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

I ran the panel of Soft Succulent through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the gorgeous Timeworn Type Embossing Folder. The panel was then glued to the Soft Succulent card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the Ornate Layers dies I cut an ornate rectangle from the smaller panel of Basic White card.

The baubles were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the ornate panel. I masked the stitching at the top before adding the bauble strings and also masked off one of the baubles using a Post It Note.

True Love for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Posted on February 14, 2021February 14, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to this month’s Colour Combo Blog Hop where I have chosen to use the gorgeous True Love designer series paper (dsp) to make my card today – Our colours this month are:

Flirty Flamingo

Pacific Point

Soft Sea Foam

To recreate this card, you will need:

Thick Basic White – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Pacific Point – 4” by ⅜”
True Love dsp

I began by fussy cutting one of the pairs of blooms from a sheet of the gorgeous True Love dsp. I love this black and white paper, it is sooo versatile, add a little colour and you have something stunning.

Using Flirty Flamingo and Soft Sea Foam Blends Markers I coloured in the flowers and leaves.

I added some speckles around the lower left corner of the Thick Basic White card base in the area where I planned to sit the flower, just to give a little texture to the background.

Well Dressed for the Inspire. Create challenge #065

Posted on March 7, 2020March 7, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Here is a masculine card made for the Inspire. Create challenge #035 using the Well Dressed stamp set. This time it is a colour challenge – Night of Navy, Crumb Cake and a colour of your choice, I chose Balmy Blue.

To recreate the Well Dressed card you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Night of Navy – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Whisper White – 5¼” by 3½”
Night of Navy – 3½” by 1¾”
Whisper White – 3½” by 1½”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” for the inside
Scrap Whisper White

I placed the panel of Whisper White – 5¼” by 3½” onto the Stamparatus, lined up the patterned stamp and picked it up with the door. I inked the stamp with Balmy Blue ink, moved the door plate over one slot, inked it up and stamped again repeating this across the panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A masculine birthday card made for the Inspire Create challenge #065 using the Well Dressed stamp set

The collar and tie were stamped in Night of Navy ink onto the smallest piece of Whisper White card stock. The collar was coloured in using the light Balmy Blue Blends Marker. This panel was then added to the smaller Night of Navy piece using the same liquid glue. The same glue was used to glue the whole panel to the Crumb Cake card base.

Above the Clouds for the Stamp ‘N Hop colour challenge

Posted on August 10, 2019August 3, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Welcome to the August Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop where this month we have a colour challenge. The colours we have been given are Granny Apple Green, Blueberry Bushel, Lovely Lipstick and Silver, all great colours. If you have hopped over from the lovely Libby I am sure you have been inspired by her project.

To recreate the Above the Clouds card you will need;

Granny Apple Green card base 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Silver Foil 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Scrap Whisper White cardstock

I choose to use the Above the Clouds stamp set for this card and stamped 3 balloons in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the solid fill in balloon image over the top – one in Lovely Lipstick ink , one in Blueberry Bushel ink and the last in Granny Apple Green ink. I stamped the top of the balloons inall three colours on the scrap Whisper White.

www.crafty-rootes.com -Above the Clouds stap set used for the Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop colour challenge

The balloons and the tops of the ballons were then punched out using the co-ordinating Hot Air Balloon Punch. I then cut away the top part of the partial balloons, mixed up the colours glued the pieces together with Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.com -Above the Clouds stap set used for the Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop colour challenge

I punched 3 ‘baskets’ from the Silver Foil layer taking care to stay away from the edge. The baskets were attached to the bottom of each balloon using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com -Above the Clouds stap set used for the Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop colour challenge

The clouds were inked up with Blueberry Bushel ink, stamped off x 2 onto the Grip Paper then stamped randomly onto one of the Whisper White panels.

The balloons were added on to to the cloud stamped layer with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole topper was the glued to the Silver Foil piece.

After rubbing a piece of scrap Blueberry Bushel cardstock with my embossing buddy I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink, covered the ink with Silver Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I flagged the end with scissors and added it to the card front.

A lovely floral card for the CAS Colour & Sketches #309 colour challenge using the Painted Seasons stamp set

CAS Colours & Sketches #309 – Painted Seasons

Posted on February 20, 2019February 19, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a sweet card made for the CAS Colours and Sketches #309 Challenge. I used the gorgeous Painted Seasons stamp set, can’t seem to get enough of this set at the moment. The challenge this time asked us to create a project using Daffodil Delight, So Saffron and Pear Pizzazz inks.

Making the CAS Colours & Sketches card

I began with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and randomly stamped the 2 flowers, 1 in Daffodil Delight and the other in So Saffron ink. I then stamped 2 of the leaf images in 1^st or 2^nd generation Pear Pizzazz ink. The small cluster of stars were then randomly added in So Saffron ink. Basically I used the stamps to make my own dsp.

Using the Detailed Trio Punch I rounded the upper left corner and mounted the panel onto a piece of Basic Gray cardstock with a rounded upper left corner using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using my Bigshot and the Doily Builder dies I cut out the ring doily from Whisper White cardstock. I only wanted the centre piece and added the detailed ring to my stash. I stamped the sentiment from the Forever lovely stamp set onto the centre die cut in Pear Pizzazz ink. I added a portion of one of the large flowers at the bottom of the die cut using Daffodil Delight ink. The piece was then mounted using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, onto a Basic Gray circle, cut using the Layering Circle dies. The sentiment was then added over the ribbon on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The same images were then stamped on the front of a Whisper White Envelope.

Hello Cupcake for the CTD530 colour challenge

Posted on February 14, 2019February 13, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the Hello Cupcake stamp set for the CTD530 colour challenge. This stamp set is so versatile and so easy to use. I love it.

Making the card

I started by stamping the cupcake case in Smoky Slate ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. I also stamped the frosting in Berry Burst ink on the same piece of scrap Whisper White. Using my scissors I cut them out – the good news is that on the 1^st March a new set of dies will be available to cut out these images…….hooray……I am not a big fan of fussy cutting. I added the frosting to the cupcake case with a little Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and set it to one side.

www.crafty-rootes.com -the Hello Cupcake stamp set used for the CTD 530 challenge

Next I took a panel of Whisper White 5⅛” by 3⅜” and stamped the large geometric background piece from the Graceful Garden stamp set in 2^nd generation Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

www.crafty-rootes.com -the Hello Cupcake stamp set used for the CTD 530 challenge

Vibrant Vases for the GDP #173 Colour Challenge

Posted on January 22, 2019January 22, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I have been playing along with the Global Design Project (GDP#173) colour challenge which this week features Soft Sea Foam, So Saffron and Petal Pink, all from the Subtles collection of colours. I used the gorgeous Vibrant Vases stamp set to make my card.

Making the card

I began with a piece of Whisper White cardstock 3 ¾” by 3”. I inked up the solid vase with So Saffron ink, stamped off once onto my Grid Paper then stamped onto the Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the detailed vase image over the top in full strength So Saffron ink. I love the added dimension you get when you stamp off the solid image.

www.crafty-rootes.com -Vibrant Vases stamp set used for the Global Design Project Colour Challenge #173

I die cut the stamped vase image using my Big Shot and the lovely new Stitched Rectangles dies. I chose my sentiment from the vibrant vases stamp set, masked off the word ‘always’ and then inked up the ‘you are loved’ in So Saffron ink and stamped the image at the top of the stitched rectangle. The whole stamped piece was then added to a panel of Petal Pink cardstock measuring 3⅝” by 2¾” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com -Vibrant Vases stamp set used for the Global Design Project Colour Challenge #173

Taking the small bokeh dot image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set I stamped the dots in a wavy line across the front of a Thick Whisper White card base in all 3 colours. The stamped panel was added to the card front on Stampin Dimensionals and a scattering of Iridescent Sequins added to give a little sparkle.

I have to say that these are not colours I would normally have chosen but I really love this card. I hope you like it.

Posted on January 18, 2019January 27, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am playing along with the CAS Colours and Sketches #304 challenge which this week is a colour challenge.

Making the card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅛” by 3 ¼”. I inked up the double leaf stamp in Crumb Cake ink and stamped it into the lower right corner of the Whisper White panel. I added the larger flower in Real Red ink and stamped a trio of the small flowers in the Balmy Blue ink around the main image. I love the hand embroidered effect these stamps give, they have so much dimension.

A lovely card made for the Inspire, Create #034 Challenge using the Vibrant Vases stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Vibrant Vases for the Inspire, Create Challenge #034

Posted on January 12, 2019January 11, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the sweet card I made for the Inspire Create colour challenge #034 using the new Vibrant Vases stamp set. I love that Stampin’ Up! have brought us another stamp set to use with our existing Vases Builder Punch, such great value for money.

Challenge

For the challenge we had to use the following colours:

Making the card

I began by stamping the base colours of each of the vases in either Call Me Clover, Calypso Coral or Pineapple Punch inks onto scrap Whisper White cardstock. I checked which way the images were punched out using the Vases Builder Punch to make sure I stamped them the correct way up. I the stamped the detailed version of each vase over the top using Night of Navy ink, I love the two tone look this gives to the vases. I then punched out each of the vases using the Vases Builder Punch.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Vibrant Vases used to make a card for the Inspire, Create Colour Challenge #034

Using the fab new Stitched Rectangle dies I cut a stitched rectangle from a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 4 ¼” by 3”. Placing each vase on the die cut Whisper White panel to get an idea of placement, I moved each vase aside and stamped the flowers in Memento Tuxedo Black ink – I had originally thought I would colour the flowers in with Blends but changed my mind.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Vibrant Vases used to make a card for the Inspire, Create Colour Challenge #034

Using the Pineapple Punch, Lovely Lipstick, Calypso Coral and Call Me Clover ink I filled in each of the flowers and leaves. I love that the infill stamps leave some white space on the flowers, so pretty. Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I added the vases below the flowers.

I then die cut a the next size up stitched rectangle from Night of Navy cardstock and the next size again from Whisper White cardstock and glued the 3 rectangle layers together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Vibrant Vases used to make a card for the Inspire, Create Colour Challenge #034

Taking a Lovely Lipstick card base I added ¼” strips of Pineapple Punch, Calypso Coral, Call Me Clover and Night of Navy ink to the upper right side of the card front and added the stamped piece over the top on Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish the card off I added some of the Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots.

I am really happy with this card, the colours really sing.
