I sneaked in a length of Gold Shimmer Ribbon and wrapped it around the stamped panel, securely it on the back with Sellotape before adding the whole panel to the Evening Evergreen card base.

Today I am sharing a sweet stripy card made using strips of Hand-Penned designer Series Paper (dsp) and gorgeous leafy die from the Artistic Dies.

Colours in this project are:

To recreate the stripy card, you will need:

Mint Macaron card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty stripy card made using the Hand-penned designer Series Paper and in intricate die cut spray of leaves

Using my Paper Trimmer I trimmed ½” off the side and added it with liquid glue to the Basic White panel for the inside of the card. I trimmed the excess off with scissors and glued the panel inside the Mint Macaron card base.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty stripy card made using the Hand-penned designer Series Paper and in intricate die cut spray of leaves

Using the same liquid glue, I added the thin strips of Basic Black card to either side of the striped panel with just a smidgeon showing. The whole piece was then added to the card front with the same glue.

I ran the remaining panel of Basic Black card through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the gorgeous intricate leaf die from the Artistic Die set. I used my Take Your Pick Tool with the Die Brush attachment to get all the little pieces out before adding the die cut to the card front using tiny dots of glue.

Using the following Blends Markers I coloured in the image on the die cut panel – Real Red, Just Jade and Pool Party. The panel was then added to a piece of Flowers For Every Season dsp which had been die cut using the Stitched So Sweetly dies. This panel was then added to the card front using Dimensionals.

Colour Combo Blog Hop

Posted on December 13, 2020December 8, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Hello and thank you for joining me for the Colour Combo Blog Hop where you will find lots of inspiration using this month’s colours which are Cinnamon Cider, Gray Granite & Real Red. Don’t you think this is a really unusual colour combo? If you are starting the hop with me or have joined from Amanda Farlinger’s blog, you are very welcome.

To recreate the colour combo card, you will need:

Gray Granite card – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded lower right corner
Real Red card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded lower right corner
Whisper White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2 – Rounded lower right corner
Real Red card – 3⅝” by 1⅛”
Whisper White card – 3⅝” by 1”

Taking one of the Whisper White panels and some Post It Notes I masked off a 1” strip about ⅔ up from the bottom.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Forever Fern stamps set used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

I decided to use the Forever Fern stamp set to make my card and started by inking up the largest leafy image with Gray Granite ink. The image was stamped above and below the masked off strip.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Forever Fern stamps set used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Next, I added the round leafed image using the Real Red ink. I filled in the gaps using the 2 smaller leafy images in Cinnamon Cider ink. I love that we have the same image going in different directions.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Forever Fern stamps set used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

To pull the whole thing together I added a scattering of dots from the same stamp set using Gray Granite ink. The Post It Notes were then removed and the whole layer was added to the Real Red layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then to the Gray Granite card base using the same glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Forever Fern stamps set used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

The sentiment from the Ornate Thanks stamp set was stamped on the strip of Whisper White in Real Red ink. I decided it looked unfinished so stamped again on either side of the sentiment using the Gray Granite and Cinnamon Cider inks. I liked that much better.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Forever Fern stamps set used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

The sentiment strip was then added to the Real Red strip using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, then to the card front on Dimensionals. I added a scattering of Red Rhinestones to complete the card.

I love these colours together, don’t you?

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty bird themed thank you card made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies

Using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut a circle from the square of Whisper White and a slightly larger scalloped circle from the Misty Moonlight card. The branch from the Birds & Branches was stamped in Cinnamon Cider ink onto the top of the Whisper White circle and added the leaves in Just Jade ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty bird themed thank you card made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies

I stamped the birds onto scrap Whisper White, starting with the outer image in Misty Moonlight ink, followed by the inner layer with Blushing Bride ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty bird themed thank you card made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies

I inked up the nest with Cinnamon Cider ink and added some Early Espresso using an Early Espresso Marker and the ‘thumping technique’. You hold the marker loosely in your hand and tap the side of the maker onto the inked stamp, moving the stamp around to get a random look to the stamping. The image was then stamped onto the scrap Whisper White card.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty bird themed thank you card made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies

The nest and birds were added to the card front on Dimensionals, slightly off set. The overhanging side of the circle was then trimmed off using Scissors.

I used Just Jade to ink up the in-fill stamp for the leaves and stems and Magenta Madness for the flower in-fill image. I just love the zingy, vibrancy of the pink. The flower centres were added in Bumblebee ink. The stamped panel was then mounted onto the larger piece of Flowers Fr Every Season dsp using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was added to the Thick Whisper White card base using the same glue. I love the watercolour effect of these images, so pretty.

Embossed Leaves

Posted on November 1, 2020October 26, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Here is a gorgeous embossed leaves card made using the Love of Leaves stamp set and the Tasteful Textiles embossing folder. I love the bright colours and the linen look of the card.

To recreate the embossed leaves card you will need:

Whisper White – 5 ¾” by 4” – Rounded upper right corner

When making a card like this I always start by stamping the largest image and working through the images to the smallest.

The next leaf was stamped in Bermuda Bay ink, the next in Magenta Madness and the smallest in Daffodil Delight ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty embossed leaves card made using the Love of Leaves stamp set

The whole panel was run through the Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine with the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. I love the effect this gives. I wrapped some of the gorgeous gold twine from the Forever Greenery ribbon duo around the layer and added the whole layer to the Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty embossed leaves card made using the Love of Leaves stamp set

I stamped one of the smallest leaves in Daffodil Delight ink and die cut it out using my Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine and the Stitched Leaves dies.

The sweet label from the Ornate Layers Dies was cut out of the smallest piece of Whisper White using the Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine.

The sentiment from the Life is Beautiful stamp set was stamped on the Ornate label in Bermuda Bay ink. The panel was then added on Dimensionals to the card front.
