Gorgeous wedding card using Wonderful Moments stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Wonderful Moments Bride

Posted on August 19, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a sweet card I made using the Wonderful Moments stamp set for the upcoming wedding of friends.

Making the Wonderful Moments card

I began with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5¼” by 3½”. I inked up the gorgeous image of the bride using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it on the Whisper White pane. Taking the light and dark Calypso Coral, the light and dark Daffodil Delight & the light and dark Granny Apple Green Blends pens I coloured in the buttons, sash and bouquet of the bride. I used the Ivory Blend for her skin and the light and dark Crumb Cake for her hair.

I added two Artisan Pearls to her hair as decoration and a couple more scattered around. Using the Detailed Trio Punch I rounded the upper left hand corner of the stamped panel. I also rounded the upper left corner of a panel of Basic Black 5⅜” by 3⅝” and adhered it to the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I cut a piece of the lovely Garden Impressions DSP measuring 5⅝” by 3⅞” and glued it to a Thick Whisper White card base. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Basic Black panel and added it to the card front. The sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set was stamped in Calypso Coral ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed out using the Paper Trimmer. It was added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Wonderful Moments

Posted on August 5, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I have been using the lady with balloons from the lovely Wonderful Moments stamp set to create a lovely birthday card.

Making the Wonderful Moments Lady with Balloons card

I began by stamping the pretty lady onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4½” by 3” using Momento Tuxedo Black ink. I chose this ink as I knew I wanted to colour the image in with Stampin’ Blends. I stamped the balloons in the same ink.

Using the light & dark Rich Razzelberry Stampin’ Blends I coloured in the lady’s dress, her hair and shoes were coloured in using the light & dark Crumb Cake and her skin is Ivory. I coloured in the balloons using the light & dark Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends. The image was ‘grounded’ using the light & dark Crumb Cake Blends.

The sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set was stamped in Rich Razzelberry ink. I used the Detailed Trio Punch to round the upper left corner of the stamped panel and added it to a Basic Black layer 4⅝” by 3⅛” with a rounded corner.

Taking a piece of the Share What You Love dsp measuring 5⅜” by 2½” I added it to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base on the left hand side. The stamped panel was added on Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish the card I added a scattering of Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

July Classes featuring the Love What You Do stamp set and Share What You Love dsp by Stampin' Up!

Love What You Do for July Classes

Posted on July 17, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the projects we made in this month’s classes using the Love What You Do stamp set and Share What You Love designer series paper (dsp).

www.crafty-rootes.com – Love What You Do and Share What You Love by Stampin’ Up!

Card 1 – scatter of flowers

We started with a layer of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5¼” by 3½” and stamped the large watercolor image in 2^nd generation Pool Party ink. Second generation is when you ink up a stamp, stamp onto scrap paper then stamp the 2^nd generation, or 3^rd or 4^th generation, onto your project.

I inked up the small flower images in Rich Razzelberry ink and stamped them from the bottom left to the top right of the Pool Party stamped image. Taking a Blender Pen and the Rich Razzelberry ink pad I coloured in the small flowers.

The sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set was stamped in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 2” by ⅜” and trimmed a banner end using my Paper Snips. I added the sentiment to slightly larger piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock and tucked a cut down piece of Pearlized Doily behind using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This was added to the stamped panel on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The whole panel was then added to a piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock 5½” by 3” and adhered this panel to a Thick Whisper White card base on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a scrap of Rich Razzelberry and Pool Party cardstock to the lop left hand corner of the stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive after banner ending with paper Snips. Finally I added a small bow made with White and Silver Baker’s Twine.

Card 2 – Embossed background

We took a 5” by 3⅝” panel of Pool Party cardstock and ran it through the Big Shot with the Lovely Floral Embossing folder. This panel was then adhered to the right hand side of the Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking the 3½” by 2¾” panel of Whisper White cardstock we stamped the Watercolor image in 2^nd generation pool Party ink in the centre. We inked up the largest flower and stamped it in Rich Razzelberry ink and added the 2 leaves in Pool Party ink. This panel was then added to a layer of Rich Razzelberry cardstock 3⅝” by 2⅞” with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking a small piece of the Share What You Love dsp we flagged one end and adhered it to the embossed Pool Party layer. The stamped panel was then added over the top on Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment from the hand Delivered stamp set was stamped onto a scrap of Whisper White 2½” by ⅜” and added to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and a Stampin’ Dimensional.

Card 3 – Thank You card

We again stamped the watercolor image in 2^nd generation Pool party ink onto a panel of Whisper White 4” by 2¾” and stamped the flower image overtop in Rich Razzelberry ink. We also stamped the flowers in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. After colouring the flowers in using the Rich Razzelberry ink pad and Blender Pens we cut them out using paper snips and adhered them to the stamped panel. We added the stamped panel to a piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock4 ¼” by 2” and set it to one side.

We added a piece of Share What You Love dsp to the front of a Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesivebefore adding the stamped panel overtop on Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock measuring 2” by 1” and added this to the card front using Multipurpose liquid Adhesive and a Stampin’ Dimensional.

The ladies really enjoyed making these cards. I hope you like them.

A Detailed Dragonfly

Posted on May 25, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I have been playing with the gorgeous Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits and the stunning Share What You Love Designer Series Paper (dsp).

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Share What You Love dsp meets a detailed Dragonfly using Stampin’ Up! product

I began by choosing one of the beautiful patterns from this dsp stack and after a lot of deliberation I went with one of the bolder patterns and cut a piece 5⅜” by 3⅝” using my Paper Trimmer. I added the dsp to a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5½” by 3¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive before adding the whole panel to a Rich Razzleberry card base using the same glue. I really feel that the Whisper White layer makes the coloured dsp ‘pop’.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Share What You Love dsp meets a detailed Dragonfly using Stampin’ Up! product

I die cut the largest stitched oval from a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Stitched Shapes Framelit dies and my Big Shot. I stamped the greeting from the Hand Delivered stamp set in Rich Razzleberry ink towards the bottom of the oval. I added the die cut oval to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals,

Taking a piece of Basic Black cardstock and my Big Shot I die cut the intricate dragonfly using the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits dies. I added some Glitter Enamel Dots to the body of the dragonfly and placed the dragonfly onto the oval with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

Such a simple but effective card. I hope you like it.

Hand Delivered Balloons for a Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop

Posted on May 12, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome back to another Stamp ‘N Hop. I am joining you from a village 10 miles outside the beautiful city of Cambridge in the UK. In this hop we are teasing you with some of our favourite pre-order items from the new Annual Catalogue which will be available from the 1st June 2018. If you have hopped over from Tracie Marie Lewis I am sure your loved her project, as did I.

For this month’s blog hop I have chosen the Hand Delivered Stamp Set. This sweet stamp set is a hostess only purchase and has so many quirky images which can be used for many different occasions and I especially like the ‘to the graduate’ and the ‘hope you feel better soon’ sentiments.

Making the card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 3⅞” by 2⅞” which I adhered to the bottom left hand corner of a Whisper White card base using a little Snail Adhesive. I stamped the skirt and legs of the girl onto the panel using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and added the top of the girl holding the balloons, deliberately stamping off the edge onto the card base. I then lifted the stamped panel off the card base which I set aside.

Taking the following Stampin’ Blends Pens I coloured in the girl and the balloons – light & dark Rich Razzelberry, light & dark Pink Pirouette, light & dark Pool Party, light Bermuda Bay and the Colour Lifter.

Using the Detailed Trio Punch I rounded the upper left corner of the stamped and coloured panel and added it to a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock 4” by 3” with Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I used the same punch to round the corner. I added this piece to the card base on Stampin’ Dimensionals taking care to match up the balloons.

I stamped the sentiment in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed it out using scissors. I added it to the card front with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

I absolutely love the simplicity of this set and I really wish there was a male version.

I am so enjoying being part of this amazingly talented group of demonstrators from around the world. To carry on hopping click on the button below or click on the link to the lovely Linda Handford and see what she has chosen to share with us this month.
