www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty snowflake tree ornament made for the Ink, Stamp, Share Blog Hop using the So Many Snowflake Dies

The Magenta Madness snowflakes were laid on my grid paper and sprayed with Champagne Shimmer Mist. This was made by pouring 70% alcohol into a Stampin’ Spritzer and adding a pea sized blob of Champagne Shimmer Paint before shaking well and spraying the snowflakes. This gives a lovely shimmer and the alcohol means it dries quickly.

I punched a 1” circle using a punch and placed it over the stamped sun to act as a mask. Using one of the fabulous new Blending Brushes – coming in the new January – June 2021 catalogue – I applied Balmy Blue ink to the background. The mask was then removed and the seagulls from the Sailing Home stamp set were stamped in Basic Gray ink. I also stamped some seagulls at the top of the card front.

A bird themed thank you card made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More dies by Stampin' Up!

Thank you birds

Today I am sharing a pretty thank you birds card featuring birds and made using the Birds & Branches stamp set and Birds & More Dies.

To recreate the thank you Birds card, you will need:

Blushing Bride card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded upper left corner
Flowers For Every Season – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 3¼” by 3¼”
Misty Moonlight – 3¼” by 3¼”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left corner
Scrap Whisper White

I added the piece of designer series paper (dsp) to the Misty Moonlight panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Using the same glue, I adhered the panel to the Blushing Bride card base.

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.

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.

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.

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 stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink onto scrap Whisper White card using the liquid glue. I added a trio of 2020 – 2022 In Color Enamel Dots.

I hope you like it.
