Today I have used the sweet hostess stamp set called Making Every Day Bright to make a get well card for one of my team members who slipped and fell whilst on holiday and fractured her elbow………..ouch. She has just had surgery and will hopefully now be on the mend. This charming stamp set co-ordinates with the Christmas Bulb Builder punch and the Making Christmas Bright stamp sets from the Autumn/Winter catalogue.
Making the Every Day Bright card
I took a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5” by 3 ¼” and randomly stamped the sweet little feather image in Rich Razzelberry, Mint Macaron and Mint Macaron. Like many others I find random stamping really challenging.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Making Every Day Bright stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I added the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock measuring 5¼” by 3½”. I wrapped a length of Rich Razzelberry ⅛” Velvet Ribbon around the card panel securing it on the back with Sellotape.

I die cut a circle using the Stitched Shapes framelit dies, tucked the circle under the ribbon and stamped the sentiment from the Apron of Love stamp set in Mint Macaron ink.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Making Every Day Bright stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the feather once in each colour onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and punched them out using the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch. I tucked the feathers under the strip of ribbon using Mini Glue Dots and added a ribbon bow on top.
Such a pretty card and I love the unusual colour combo. I hope it brings a smile to Jill’s face.

Today I have been making a Country style Christmas card using the fabulous Buffalo Check stamp set and the In the Woods framelit dies.
Making the Country Style Christmas card
I started by getting out my Stamparatus and inking up the Buffalo Check stamp with Poppy Parade ink and stamped it down onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I like to use the Stamparatus so that I can stamp repeatedly if I need to.
www.crafty-rootes.com -A country style Christmas card using Stampin’ Up! products
When the Poppy Parade ink was dry I added lines using a Mossy Meadow marker, I really like the added interest this gives. I then trimmed the panel down to 5½” by 3¾” using my Paper Trimmer.
www.crafty-rootes.com -A country style Christmas card using Stampin’ Up! products
Taking a panel of Mossy Meadow cardstock 5⅝” by 3⅞” I die cut the 2 Christmas tree shapes from the centre then adhered this the stamped panel to a layer of Mossy Meadow. Love that you can use the middle of a panel then cover it up and no-one will ever know!!
www.crafty-rootes.com -A country style Christmas card using Stampin’ Up! products
Using Mini Dimensionals I added the top layer of the tree to the base layer, pulling out the little leafy pieces. I covered the tree in Clear Wink of Stella, you can never have enough bling! I also added some of the gorgeous Red Rhinestones before adhering the tree to the card front. I inked up the sentiment using a Mossy Meadow Marker and stamped onto a scrap of Whisper White and trimmed to fit. I added a strip of Silver Metallic Edged Ribbon adhered on the back of the panel with Sellotape and added a bow using a Mini Glue Dot.

This weekend a friend of ours is taking part in the Miss Mermaid UK competition and I made her a sweet card to wish her luck.
Making the Miss Mermaid Card
I started with a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝”. I ran my Embossing Buddy over the panel and inked up the gorgeous mermaid image with Versamark Ink. I stamped the image onto the Whisper White panel and covered it with Silver Embossing Powder before melting it with my Heat Tool.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Miss Mermaid is Magical for a good luck card
I stamped the mermaid onto a large Post It Note and cut it out to provide a mask. Once the mask was in place I stamped the watery fronds in Soft Sea Foam ink, adding some speckles in Pool Party ink. I then removed the mask and coloured in the Mermaid using the following Blends Alcohol Pens – Light & Dark Pool Party, Light & Dark Highland Heather, Light Crumb Cake, Light Daffodil Delight & Ivory. I love the soft look of these colours
www.crafty-rootes.com – Miss Mermaid is Magical for a good luck card
I then stamped the words Good Luck using the letters from the Make a Difference stamp set in the upper right corner but I didn’t like it so decided to tear the top of the stamped panel. I actually really liked the look this gave to the card.
Taking a panel of Pool Party measuring 5 ½” by 3 ¾” I stamped the watery fronds in the upper right corner in Pool Party ink before adding the stamped Whisper White panel with Multipurpose liquid Adhesive. I added the sentiment from the Banners For You stamp set in Highland Heather ink.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Miss Mermaid is Magical for a good luck card
The whole stamped piece was added to a Highland Heather card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a scattering of Iridescent Sequins added.
I think it is a gorgeous card and I hope Jess likes it and that it brings her luck.

Today I have been using the Lilypad Lake stamp set and co-ordinating Lakeside framelit dies to make a simple ‘thinking of you’ card.
Making the Lilypad Lake card
www.crafty-rootes.com – Lilypad Lake meets Graceful Glass for a thinking of you card
I really wanted to combine this stamp set with the Graceful Glass Vellum dsp. I especially liked the piece with wavy lines which has a real watery feel. I cut a piece 5⅞” by 2” and used the following Blends Alcohol Pens to colour in the image – Dark Pool Party, Light Bermuda Bay, Light & Dark Night of Navy. This was the first time I had used Blends to colour in the vellum and I was surprised how streaky the finished image was. It did work with this watery image though.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Lilypad Lake meets Graceful Glass for a thinking of you card
After colouring in the vellum I added it to a piece of Whisper White cardstock exactly the same size. To do this I squeezed a little Multipurpose liquid Adhesive onto a Silicon Mat, picked up the glue with a small piece of sponge and swiped it lightly across the Whisper White panel before adhering the vellum panel to it. I added the whole piece to a Thick Whisper White card base.
Taking some scraps of Basic Black cardstock I die cut a heron and some of the clumps of leaves and tucked these in behind the raised panel adhering them with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Lilypad Lake meets Graceful Glass for a thinking of you card
I inked up part of the sentiment using a Night of Navy cardstock and stamped it down on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock which I then cut to size and flagged one end. It was added to the card front using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
Despite the streaky look I actually quite liked this card, let me know what you think.

Today I have been making a sweet pink elephant baby card using the adorable Little Elephant stamp set and co-ordinating Elephant Builder Punch.
Making the Pink Elephant card
I began by stamping the large elephant in Flirty Flamingo ink and the small elephant in Blushing Bride ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and punching them out with the Elephant Builder Punch. I put them to one side.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A baby card using the Little Elephant stamp set and Elephant Builder Punch
I inked up the flower stamp using my Granny Apple Green and Flirty Flamingo Markers……….love that we can do this….. and stamped a row along the bottom of a Whisper White panel 5” by 3¼”. I added 2 banners using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, above the flowers made from the Tropical Escape dsp and added a sentiment stamped in Granny Apple Green ink onto a scrap of Whisper White.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A baby card using the Little Elephant stamp set and Elephant Builder Punch
I placed the pink elephants above the banners using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added the hearts which were coloured using the Flirty Flamingo and Blushing Bride markers. I rounded the upper left corner with the Detailed Trio Punch and added the panel to a layer of Flirty Flamingo cardstock having rounded the same corner. This whole piece was then glued to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A baby card using the Little Elephant stamp set and Elephant Builder Punch
The elephants were added with Stampin’ Dimensionals and I stamped an extra-large ear onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out. It was added to the large elephant on a dimensional. I added 2 banners made from the same Tropical Escape dsp to the top of the panel and finished the card off with a scattering of Iridescent Sequins.
Such a sweet card, I hope you like it.

At team training last week Mikaela – my team leader – brought the gorgeous Blizzard Thinlit die and the new Embossing Mats for us to try out and asked us to make a card featuring the embossed piece…….this is mine.
Making the Blizzard Card
www.crafty-rootes.com – Embossing using the Blizzard thinlit dies by Stampin’ Up!
To emboss the panel we started with a piece of Pool Party cardstock big enough to cover the entire die. We used the Big Shot Platform, then the die face up, then the cardstock, then the thin blue silicon sheet and lastly the white embossing plate and ran the sandwich through the Big Shot. The effect is stunning and you can use either the positive or negative sides. Using my Paper Trimmer I cut the panel down to 4¾” by 3⅜” and rounded the upper left and lower right corners using the Detailed trio Punch.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Embossing using the Blizzard thinlit dies by Stampin’ Up!
I added the embossed layer to a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5” by 3⅝” after rounding the same corners. This panel was then added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to a Night of Navy card base with identically rounded corners.
I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and die cut it using an oval from the Stitched Shapes dies. I stamped the sweet little snowflake cluster on the bottom of the die cut piece in Pool Party ink.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Embossing using the Blizzard thinlit dies by Stampin’ Up!
I added a small piece of Tear ‘N Tape to the card front, wrapped some Silver Metallic Thread around my hand and added it to the Tear ‘N Tape. The sentiment piece was then added over the thread on Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Taking some scrap Whisper White cardstock I die cut some of the snowflakes using the Blizzard die and added one to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. To finish I added some Basic Rhinestones.

Last week I was asked to do a demonstration for the local village women’s group and this is the card I shared made using the Beautiful Bauble stamp set.
Beautiful Bauble card
I began by taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3¾” by 3¾”. I ran my Embossing Buddy over the Whisper White panel to remove the static and oils from the cardstock. I inked up the large detailed bauble with Versamark ink and stamped it down onto the Whisper White panel. Then I covered the panel in Copper Embossing Powder, flicking off the excess powder before melting it with my Heat Tool.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Beautiful Bauble Christmas card using Stampin’ Up! products
I coloured in the Bauble using the Light & Dark Poppy Parade, Light & Dark Bermuda Bay & Light Pool Party Blends Alcohol Pens. The Whisper White panel was added to a piece of Copper Foil measuring 3⅞” by 3⅞” with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Beautiful Bauble Christmas card using Stampin’ Up! products
I added some of the sweet little stars to the right hand side of the Pool Party card base and added the stamped panel with Stampin; Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock and adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. As a finishing touch I added some copper sequins from the Metallic Sequins selection using the fantastic new Take a Pick Tool.

This month’s classes focused on the gorgeous Abstract Impressions stamp set and co-ordinating Springtime Impressions thinlit dies. Although the weather in the UK has cooled down I didn’t feel ready yet to do a Christmas class and this fabulous set was just what I needed for some summery flower card.
Thank You card
For the first card we started with a panel of Whisper White measuring 4” by 2⅝”. We stamped the more solid of the leaf stalk images in Lemon Lime Twist ink and added the more detailed image on top in Granny Apple Green ink. The ladies loved the fact that they did not have to line up the images, indeed abstract is definitely the way to go. We then inked up the solid spray of blossoms in Grapefruit Grove and stamped off once onto grid paper before stamping above the leaves, this gives a lighter shade. The more detailed flower image was then stamped on top in full strength Grapefruit Grove ink.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions and Springtime Impressions for a card class
Using the Detailed Trio Punch we rounded the upper left corner of the stamped panel and the same corner of a piece of Grapefruit Grove cardstock 4⅛” by 2¾” before adhering them together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
Taking the solid flower spray image we inked it in Granny Apple Green ink and stamped onto opposing corners of a Granny Apple Green card base. The sentiment was stamped in Grapefruit Grove ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and was punched out using the Tailored Tag Punch. Using the same punch we also punched a piece of Highland Heather cardstock. This piece was cut in half using scissors and the pieces glued to the top and bottom of the sentiment. This piece was then added to the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
Using the Tailored Tag Punch we banner ended a piece of Whisper White and Highland Heather cardstock 4⅛” by ¼”, cut each piece in half and glued them to the card front. The stamped topper was then added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Birthday Card
We started by running a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” through the Big Shot using the new Embossing Mats and the huge floral corner die from the Springtime Impressions. The ladies absolutely loved this new technique. We then stamped the large abstract flower onto the embossed piece in Grapefruit Grove, 3rd generation for the base layer, 2nd generation for the middle layer and full strength for the final layer. We also stamped it onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions and Springtime Impressions for a card class
We stamped the smaller flower onto the embossed panel in Highland Heather ink, 2nd generation for the solid image and full strength for the detailed image. We stamped the same image again onto our scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock and onto a Stitched Oval from the Stitched Shapes dies.
Next we stamped the sentiment from Beautiful Bouquet stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink and added a Highland Heather flower to the die cut oval. We stamped a few leaves in Garden Green and Lemon Lime Twist ink and added the stitched oval to the embossed panel.
Using the Detailed Trio Punch we rounded the bottom right corner of the embossed panel, a panel of Highland Heather measuring 5½” by 3¾” and a Grapefruit Grove card base and adhered all the layers together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The Stitched Oval was added with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the extra flowers fussy cut and added with glue.
Butterfly Card
We began by a placing a die cut Stitched Oval onto a Thick Whisper White card base and drawing round it. We then inked up the larger flower in 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Grapefruit Grove, the smaller flower in 1st and 2nd generation Highland Heather and a variety of leaves in Granny Apple Green ink. The trick with this sort of card is to stamp all the images partly inside the oval and partly outside the oval and to start with the largest image and finishing with the smallest images.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions and Springtime Impressions for a card class
We die cut the butterfly from the Springtime Impressions dies and added it to the Stitched oval with a small strip of dimensionals and added a bow made from the ⅛” Grapefruit Grove ribbon. The oval was then added to the card front with dimensionals.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions and Springtime Impressions for a card class
This is such an unusual colour combo but looks so bright and summery. I hope you like the cards.

My name is Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK. If you have hopped over from the lovely Eva Pottsova I am sure you loved her project. One of the first things that caught my eye in the new Holiday Catalogue was the adorable Spirited Snowmen stamp set. Those snowmen are just sooooo cute.
Dancing Snowman card
For the first card I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock 4 ¼” by 2 ¾” which I placed in my Stamparatus. I inked up the Buffalo Check stamp with Poppy Parade ink and stamped it down. I find using the big background stamps with the Stamparatus gives a much better image. I added the stamped piece to a panel of Poppy Parade cardstock 4⅜” by 2⅞” and added it to a Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
www.carfty-rootes.com – Spirited Snowman stamp st by Stampin’Up! for sweet Christmas cards
Next I stamped the Dancing Snowman in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of Whisper White 3” by 3” and used the Blueberry Bushel, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and Soft Suede markers to colour him in. He looks so happy doesn’t he?
www.carfty-rootes.com – Spirited Snowman stamp st by Stampin’Up! for sweet Christmas cards
I die cut the snowman using the Layering Circles dies and the Big Shot and die cut a slightly larger Blueberry Bushel scalloped circle and adhered them together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set in Blueberry Bushel and added the image to the right side of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. To complete the card I added some Red Rhinestones and a Blueberry Bushel bow with a Mini Glue Dots.
Skating Snowman card
I started with a panel of Balmy Blue cardstock 5⅞” by 4⅛”. I placed this in the Stamparatus, inked up the large Buffalo Check background stamp with Blueberry Bushel ink and stamped it onto the Balmy Blue cardstock. The stamped Buffalo Check piece was then cut on the diagonal using the Stampin’ Trimmer and adhered to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base.
www.carfty-rootes.com – Spirited Snowman stamp st by Stampin’Up! for sweet Christmas cards
I cut a strip of Silver Foil at 6” by ¼” and adhered it to the card front above the stamped panel leaving a small gap between the two pieces.
I stamped the gorgeous ‘skating snowman’ onto a panel of Whisper White approximately 3” by 3” and coloured it in using the Blueberry Bushel, Poppy Parade, Soft Suede and Pumpkin Pie Markers. He looks adorable. The piece was the die cut using the Big Shot and the Layering Circles dies.
www.carfty-rootes.com – Spirited Snowman stamp st by Stampin’Up! for sweet Christmas cards
I die cut a slightly larger scalloped circle from Blueberry Bushel cardstock and added it to the stamped circle. I then die cut a slightly larger circle from Poppy parade and adhered it to the back of the scalloped circle with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This piece was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and a scattering of Red Rhinestones was added for that bit of extra sparkle.
The sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and backed by a piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock. I banner cut the end and stuck it to the card front.

Today I am sharing a sweet card I made for a friends special birthday using the Abstract Impressions stamp set. I really love this stamp set, it Is so pretty and extremely versatile.
Making the Abstract Impressions card
I started with 2 pieces of Thick Whisper White cardstock, one measuring 11” by 5½”, the other 9¼” by 4¼”. I scored both of these panels on the long sides at 2¾” by 5½”. I rounded some of the corners of the smaller Thick Whisper White panel with the Detailed Trio Punch. I chose 2 patterns from the gorgeous Garden Impressions 6” x 6” dsp, one piece was cut at 5¼” by 5¼” and 2 pieces at 5¼” by 2½” and glued them to the larger piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions for a great double Z fold card
I cut 3 pieces of Mint Macaron cardstock, one at 4⅛” by 3½” and two more at 4⅛” by 2⅝”, rounded the same corners and adhered these to the smaller Thick Whisper White cardstock with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I cut 3 panels of Whisper White cardstock, one at 4” by 4” and the other two at 4” by 2½” and stamped them with images from the Abstract Impressions.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions for a great double Z fold card
I used Mint Macaron ink and Shaded Spruce ink for the leaves and 1st & 2nd generation Powder Pink ink, Calypso Coral ink and Melon Mambo ink for the flowers. I love the depth the multiple layer stamping gives to the flowers.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions for a great double Z fold card
I die cut the numbers 6 & 0, three times each from Mint Macaron cardstock using the sadly retired Large Numbers dies and glued them one on top of the other using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive making each number thicker. These were added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink onto a ¼” strip of Whisper White cardstock and cut the ends into flags. I added the sentiment over the numbers with glue. To finish the card I scattered some Faceted Dots.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Abstract Impressions for a great double Z fold card
I made an envelope using the Envelope Punch Board and some retired dsp. I hope my friend likes her card.
