Using a Poppy Parade Stamp ‘n Write marker I coloured in the pot. I used the Soft Suede Stamp ‘n Write marker to colour in the plant stem and the Just Jade marker for the leaves. To re-activate the drying ink, I huffed on the inked stamped before stamping down on the smaller panel of Very Vanilla. I used the Tasteful Label dies to cut out the image.

I die cut the same label from the larger Poppy Parade panel and 2 stitched banners from the smaller panel of Poppy Parade. The large label was cut in half from top to bottom and adhered the pieces to the back of the stamped panel, with a little showing either side. The banners were added to the top and bottom. The whole piece was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Healing Hugs for a get well card

Posted on January 8, 2019January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Our latest team challenge asks us to make a get well card ready for this season of coughs and colds and I chose to make this sweet card using the stunning Healing Hugs stamp set. I have had this set for a while and never inked it up and it is stunning.

Making the card

I stamped the large flower image in Merry Merlot ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and cut it out using my sharp scissors. The flower is gorgeous, the petals almost look like velvet; the dimension these distINKtive stamps give is amazing. Using a sponge dauber I inked around the edges of the flower with the Merry Merlot ink.

ww.crafty-rootes.com – Healing Hugs stamp set used for a get well card

I cut a panel of Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper (dsp) 5” by 3⅛”. I cut a scalloped border from a ½” strip of Merry Merlot cardstock and the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch. I added the border to the dsp panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Feathers Make Every Day Bright

Posted on October 2, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

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.

Feathers from Making Every Day Bright stamp set

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.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Making Every Day Bright stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

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.
