Mountain Diorama for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Posted on June 27, 2021June 17, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Share it Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing a project we have been working on. I have been playing with the new Diorama Dies this week and have come up with this sweet card using the Beauty of Friendship and Mountain Air stamp sets.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Mountain Diorama card, you will need:

Thick Basic White – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Soft Succulent – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Misty Moonlight – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Scrap Soft Succulent

I placed the smaller of the dies I planned to use on the Basic White panel to give an idea of positioning – you could draw around it with a pencil. I them stamped the tree from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set in Early Espresso ink. I stamped the ground image using Soft Succulent ink.

Next, I stamped the detailed mountains in Misty Moonlight ink and added the mountain shadow in Misty Moonlight which I had stamped off twice to give a lighter shade.

The tree line was stamped in Soft Succulent ink at the base of the mountains. I reversed the stamp and stamped it again upside down in 2^nd generation ink.

I added a Post It Circle punched out using the 1” Circle Punch to the panel and used a Blending Brush to add Balmy Blue ink to my sky area. I then added Pool Party ink to the ground area using the Blending Brush. I added some definition to the tree using my White Chalk Marker.

The diorama pieces were cut from the Misty Moonlight and Soft Succulent layers. The Misty Moonlight was then added to the stamped piece with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The Soft Succulent layer was then added over the top on Dimensionals. The whole piece was added to the Thick Basic White card front using the liquid glue.

At this point I thought about a sentiment and choose to use part of a sentiment from the Color & Contour stamp set. If I had thought about it before I would have stamped it directly onto the Soft Succulent panel…….. I ended up stamping it in Misty Moonlight ink onto a scrap or Soft Succulent card and fussy cutting it out. It was added with liquid glue.

I really, really like this card. I hope you like it.

Stripy Card using the Hand-penned dsp

Posted on June 25, 2021June 17, 2021 by Mo Rootes

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”
Hand-Penned dsp strips – 3¾” long and ⅜” or ½” wide
Basic Black card – 5⅞” by ½” x 2
Basic Black card – 5” by 3” to die cut the leaves
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card to die cut the label

I began by applying Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the narrow strips of dsp and adhering them to the longest panel of Basic White card leaving a tiny gap between each piece.

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.

The sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut using the Tailor Made Tags dies. It was added to the card front with the liquid glue.

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where out theme is ‘Let Your Colours Shine’ – great topic. After a lot of thought I decided to take it back to basics and find an image I like to act as inspiration for a colour combo.

The branch from the Garden Birdhouse stamp set was added at the top with Mint Macaron ink. I stamped the hanger from the tree in Balmy Blue ink and added the sweet birdhouse in Misty Moonlight ink.

I used the Misty Moonlight Marker from the 2021-2023 In Color Markers pack to colour in parts of the birdhouse. Doesn’t it look sweet.

Using Versamark ink I stamped the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set onto the Misty Moonlight strip, covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with the Heat Tool. I flagged the end with scissors.

I glued the stamped panel to the Misty Moonlight layer and then to the Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The sentiment was then added using the same glue.

A special birthday funfold card made using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Beauty of Friendship fun fold card

Posted on June 22, 2021June 16, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Here is a Beauty of Friendship fun fold card made for my daughter Camilla’s birthday. I saw LeeAnn Greff, a fellow demonstrator, demonstrate it on YouTube and I knew this was the perfect card for her as she loves the outdoors. I changed the dimensions to fit A4 card stock and also some of the colours.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the beauty of friendship card, you will need:

Soft Succulent card – 6½“ by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Soft Succulent card – 3½” by 3” scored at ½” on the short side
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 2¼”
Basic White card – 3⅜” by 2½”
Soft Succulent card – 3” by 2½”
Basic White 2¼” by 2”
Scrap of Balmy Blue

I took the 2 scored pieces Soft Succulent, laid them on my work surface with the smaller panel on the right-hand side. Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I adhered the ½” tab of the smaller piece to the larger panel. You should then have a gate fold type card with a long thin left panel and a shorter, wider right-hand panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set for a special birthday card

I place the 3 largest panels of Basic White card stock onto my work surface. I punched a circle from a Post It Note using the ¾” Circle Punch and placed it in the upper left-hand corner of the smallest panel.

Using a Blending Brush I added Soft Sea Foam ink to all three of the panels. The ink was added gradually in circular motions, building up the colour slowly. I then added Soft Succulent ink around the edges of each panel in the same way.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set for a special birthday card

The bare trees were then stamped in Soft Suede ink, 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd generation to give the effect of depth.

I added the ‘tree canopy’ image to the stamped full-strength tree on the smallest panel. I used the soft succulent ink and the spotty image to add some texture to all the panels

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set for a special birthday card

The stamped panels were then glued to the Soft Succulent card. The largest one on the inside, covering the ½” tab which holds them together.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and my Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I cut a label from the remaining Soft Succulent piece and a smaller label from the Basic White piece.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set for a special birthday card

The sentiment from the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set was stamped on the white label in Soft Succulent ink and I added a couple of small flowers in the same ink. The flowers were from the Flowers of Friendship stamp set.

The labels were then glued together. They were added to the left-hand panel of the card with a couple of Dimensionals. Make sure that the Dimensionals are well over to the left and that the right-hand panel of the card can tuck under.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful fun fold using the Beauty of Friendship stamp set for a special birthday card

To complete the card, I die cut 2 of the sweet little birds from the Beautiful Trees dies from scrap Balmy Blue card and added them to the card front. I used a Black Stampin’ Write Marker to add their eyes and a trio of Genial Gems.

I absolutely love this card, thank you LeeAnn for the inspiration.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Pretty painted poppies CASE’d card for the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop

The Basic White panel was run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Macrame Embossing Folder. This folder is rapidly becoming my current favourite. I added the embossed layer to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Pale Papaya card and die cut using the smaller label from the Painted Label dies.

Seashell card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop

Posted on June 14, 2021May 31, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Kylie Bertucci Training Blog Hop. Today I am sharing one of the seashell cards I made for team members who had reached sales or recruiting targets in May.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the seashell card, you will need:

Calypso Coral card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”

I ran the smaller panel of Basic White through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Stitched With Whimsey Dies. I used the largest square. I moved the die down the card, overlapping the original and ran it through again. I knew I would be covering the centre area. I added this panel to the Calypso Coral layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Using the same glue, I added the panel to the Pale Papaya card base.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty seashell themed congratulations card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop

On scraps of Basic White card, I stamped the seashells and cut them out using the Seaside Shells Dies.

The die cuts were then placed in the coordinating spots in the Seashell 3D Embossing Folder and ran them through the Cut & Emboss Machine.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty seashell themed congratulations card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Training Blog Hop

I arranged the shells across the middle of the panel, hiding the overlapping embossed area. I used a mixture of liquid glue and Dimensionals.

Hello and welcome to the June 2021 Colour Combo blog hop – this month our colours are Polished Pink, Poppy Parade and Soft Sea Foam. I have chosen the Watercolor Shapes stamp set to make my card.

To recreate the Watercolor shapes card, you will need:

Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner

I have been playing around with the Watercolor Shapes stamp set this week and have decided to use it for todays color challenge.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty birthday card made using the Watercolor Shapes stamp set for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

I chose to use the 2 rectangular images and the square image and began by stamping the largest image in Soft Sea Foam. I stamped randomly all over the smallest Basic White panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty birthday card made using the Watercolor Shapes stamp set for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

I added the thinner rectangle in Polished Pink ink and finished with the square stamped in Poppy Parade ink. I deliberately over-lapped the images and colors. Don’t they work well together. The stamped panel was added to the Basic Black layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the layer, securing it on the back with Sellotape and then glued it to the Polished Pink panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty birthday card made using the Watercolor Shapes stamp set for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Using the Stamparatus I inked up the large birthday sentiment from the Biggest Wishes stamp set in Soft Sea Foam ink and stamped it onto the small panel of Basic White card. I added the scripty ‘happy’ in Poppy Parade ink. The sentiment was then added to the card base on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty birthday card made using the Watercolor Shapes stamp set for the Colour Combo Blog Hop
