I was lucky enough to be invited to 2 weddings over the last few days, how fortunate am I, love a wedding. Both couples had a rustic theme, kraft cardstock, very vanilla and a pop of colour. With that ‘natural look’ in mind I made a wedding card for each couple.
Both cards are very similar and start with a Crumb Cake card base. Next I took a Crumb Cake panel 5” by 3¼”and stamped randomly all over the upper two thirds in Crumb Cake ink using many of the small images from the Bloomin’ Love stamp set to create the effect I wanted and I was really happy with the result.

I took a small piece of Very Vanilla cardstock 3¼” by 2”and ran it through the Big Shot using the Ruffled Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder, love the effect this gives, and added it to the lower third of the panel with Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I added the whole piece to a Very Vanilla panel 5⅛” by 3⅜” then to a piece of Night of Navy cardstock 5¼” by 3½” to match the colours the bride had chosen for her theme. I used some of the lovely soft Very Vanilla Lace Ribbon to tie into a bow around the topper which gives the card a more finished look, tying the top and the bottom together.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Bloomin’ Love by Stampin’ Up!
The whole piece was added to the Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set was stamped in Night of Navy ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock and trimmed with scissors. It was added to the card front using Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

For the second card I substituted Old Olive ink and cardstock instead of the Night of Navy and added an extra Very Vanilla cardstock panel between the topper and the Crumb Cake card base.

I was really happy with the way the cards turned out, I hope you like them.

Today I am sharing a couple of adorable cards I made using the new, A Little Wild stamp set and co-ordinating Little Loves framelits.
I stamped the sweet little bear, 2 Bee skeps, bees and flower using Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto Shimmery White cardstock as I planned on watercoloring the images. I used my Aquapainter and a Crumb Cake inkpad to add color to the front and the back of the bear, die cut the image using the co-ordinationg Little Loves framelit dies and the Big Shot before carefully cutting the front from the back with Scissors apart. The bee skep was coloured with Crumb Cake ink and Pear Pizzazz ink and the flower with Pear Pizzazz ink and Calypso Coral ink.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A Little Wild stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I chose a Thick Very Vanilla card base and added a layer of Pear Pizzazz on top and die cut a square ‘window’ with the Stitched Shapes framelits dies through both layers. I ran some Tear & Tape double sided adhesive around the Very Vanilla ‘window’ frame on the front of the card and laid a slightly bigger square of Tulle over the top, making sure to adhere it well. I then added the Pear Pizzazz panel over the top with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A Little Wild stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
The front of the bear was added to the front of the card, overlapping the Tulle window using Tombow and the back of the bear was stuck on the inside of the card looking out of the window. The front and back of the bee skep was added in the same way and the bees scattered across the front and backed with matching bees where they would show on the back.
www.crafty-rootes.com – A Little Wild stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and this was then punched using the Classic Label Punch and cut it down before adding it to the bottom of the front panel and placing the flower on top.
I went on to make a Tulle window, shaker card inspired by the amazing Jennifer McGuire – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-XHz-FtFcI

We had a great time at last weeks’ classes using the fabulous Colorful Seasons stamp set and co-ordinating Seasonal Layers dies and……. we made the first Christmas card of the year!!! Love Christmas.
The first card the ladies made was a double fold card. We used Thick Whisper White cardstock for the base and after folding added a piece Berry Burst Designer Series Paper (dsp) from the Color Theory paper stack to the front panel.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set and Seasonal Layers dies by Stampin’ Up!
Using a piece of Whisper White cardstock which had a circle die cut out and a Stampin Sponge we added a circle of Pink Pirouette onto a small panel of Whisper white cardstock. Next we stamped the branches from the Colorful Seasons stamp set in Early Espresso ink and added the flowers using the Berry Burst ink pad. They look so pretty and give a soft Asian feel to the panel. We die cut the Adirondack chair using the co-ordinating Seasonal Layers dies from the a piece of Early Espresso cardstock. We mounted the stamped Whisper White panel onto a panel of Early Espresso cardstock. The chair was added to the panel using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. We added the whole panel to the card front again using Tombow.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set and Seasonal Layers dies by Stampin’ Up!
The second card was more autumnal in colour and theme. We stamped the small solid leaf image randomly down the side of a Thick Whisper White card base in Old Olive ink. We stamped the same image in the same ink onto a piece of Old Olive cardstock which we then punched using the Scallop Tag Topper punch. We also punched the top of a strip of Color Theory dsp in Crushed Curry and added it using Tombow Liquid Adhesive to the back left hand side of the tag. Using the Seasonal Layers dies we cut a partial leaf shape from the Old Olive tag and also cut a filigree leaf from a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock. A small solid leaf was stamped in Crushed Curry ink and die cut using the matching die. A small piece of Crushed Curry Ribbon was stapled to the top if the tag using the now retired Handheld Stapler and the staple hidden by the small Crushed Curry leaf. The sentiment was stamped in Old Olive ink before the tag was added to the card front using Stampin Dimensionals. The filigree Crushed Curry leaf was then added to the card front using Tombow.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Colorful Seasons stamp set and Seasonal Layers dies by Stampin’ Up!
For the last card we stamped the 2 snowflakes from the Colorful Seasons stamp set randomly onto a layer of Night of Navy cardstock using Whisper White Craft ink and set it aside to dry. The sentiment from the Flurry of Wishes stamp set was stamped onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock using Night of Navy ink. The 3 snowflake dies in the Seasonal Layers set were then die cut from a strip of Whisper White cardstock. When the Whisper White Craft ink was dry, it takes a couple of minutes; we added the sentiment piece using Tombow then mounted the whole panel onto the card front using Stampin Dimensionals before adding the die cut snowflakes with Tombow Liquid Adhesive.
Love all of these cards using this fantastically versatile stamp set and dies. I hope you like them.

Earlier this week a lovely friend celebrated a very special birthday. She loves the outdoors, cycling and walking in particular and although she now has a shiny new bus pass she assures me her bike will still be getting a regular work out. In honour of her bike I chose the Bike Ride stamp set and co-ordinating Build A Bike framelit dies to make her birthday card.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Bike Ride stamp set and Build A Bike framelits
I stamped the frame of the bike using the lovely, rich Fresh Fig ink onto Whisper White card stock and then stamped both the wheels in Archival Basic Gray ink onto Whisper White cardstock before running them through the Big Shot with the co-ordinating Build A Bike dies. Using Tombow Liquid Adhesive I glued the wheels onto the frame to make the bike.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Bike Ride stamp set and Build A Bike framelits
Taking scrap Whisper White cardstock I stamped the open stars from the Balloon Celebration stamp set in Fresh Fig ink before punching out a couple of balloons using the Balloon Bouquet Punch. I stamped the solid stars using Powder Pink ink and punched out another balloon. I stamped some solid balloons in Fresh Fig and Powder Pink ink and punched them out with the same punch.
I stamped the number 6 and 0 from the Number of Years stamp set in Bermuda Bay ink onto more scrap Whisper White ink and die cut them out using the Large Number Dies. I also die cut 3 more sets of the letters from Whisper White cardstock which I adhered to the back of the Bermuda Bay stamped numbers to give added dimension to the numbers.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Bike Ride stamp set and Build A Bike framelits
I decided on a 5½” square card made of Thick Whisper White cardstock and added a 5¼” square layer of Powder Pink cardstock to the front using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I cut a 5” square piece of Whisper White cardstock and started laying out the bike and balloons to get some idea of placement. I stamped the ‘swoosh’ shape from the Number Years stamp set in Crumb Cake ink along the bottom of the Whisper White cardstock panel and added the bike with Stampin Dimensionals. Using the fine tip of my Basic Black marker and a ruler I added balloon strings to the handle bar and the bar behind the bike seat adding the balloons using Tombow Liquid Adhesive or Stampin Dimensionals. I added the die cut 60 on top of the other balloons and coated the number with Clear Wink of Stella. Finally I coloured the handle bars, seat and pedal of the bike using Crumb Cake ink and a Blender Pen. Such a fun looking card, I really hope my friend likes it.

Looking at my last few posts I have noticed that I am definitely chanelling the clean and simple look and this card is another along the same lines.
I am using the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set to create the card today. I love that we have another set to use with the Every Day Jars Framelit Dies. After a bit of trial and error I decided it is easier to stamp the inside elements before stamping the jar ……….. a lot of trial and error!! I stamped the ‘grass’ and the ‘leafy stem’ in Wild Wasabi ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock before adding the adorable little ladybird in Real Red ink. I then stamped the jar using Archival Basic Gray ink and die cut it using the Every Day Jars Framelits and the Big Shot.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Sharing Sweet Thoughts by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the cute gingham lid in the Real Red ink before die cutting it and attaching it to the top of the jar using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I added the stamped jar to a panel of Whisper White cardstock using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added some ground using Crumb Cake ink and a Blender Pen and couldn’t resist another couple of Ladybirds going to rescue their friend……
I added the whole piece to a layer of Real Red cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive before adding to a Thick Whisper White card base.

This is a sweet and simple thank you card made using the Touches of Texture stamp set.
I stamped the dainty flower image from the set onto a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso ink. I coloured the flowers and buds using a So Saffron Marker and the leaves with an Old Olive Marker keeping it as simple as possible.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Touches of Texture by Stampin’ Up!
The Very Vanilla panel was added to a layer of Old Olive cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped some Linen Thread 3 times around the topper and tied in a bow at the front before adding the whole panel to a So Saffron card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a sentiment from the Banners For You stamp set in Old Olive ink. To finish the card I added some Old Olive Enamel Shapes from the Brights collection.
I hope you like today’s project.

I am still loving the Eastern Beauty stamp set and co-ordinating Eastern Medallion Framelits , though I haven’t used it in a while – easily distracted by all the other goodies in the new annual catalogue. I have chosen to make some thank you cards using the set today, along with my 2 favourite new in-colors, Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Eastern Medallion by Stampin’ Up!
I die cut one of the large medallions from Whisper White cardstock using the Eastern Medallion dies and my Big Shot. I then die cut the medallion using the Layering Circle Framelit dies, love that the 2 die sets work together. I did exactly the same with the inner medallion ring.
www.crafty-rootes.com- Eastern Medallion Dies by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the sentiment in Berry Burst ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and die cut it out using the smallest Layering Circle die. I then die cut a circle from Berry Burst cardstock and Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and using Tombow Liquid Adhesive used these to back the large and small parts of the medallion. I love the pop of colour this gives to the image.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Eastern Medallion dies and Eastern Beauty stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I stuck the largest (Berry Burst) medallion to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base using Tombow then added the Lemon Lime Twist medallion using Stampin’ Dimensionals on top. The sentiment was also added using Stampin Dimensionals for maximum impact.
Such a clean and simple card but so striking. I love it and hope you do as well.

I made this simple but elegant card for my team challenge this month. The challenge was to interpret a sketch, something that I find quite difficult to do – sorry I can’t work out how to copy the sketch onto this page – I am not known for my IT skills…..
www.crafty-rootes.com – Touches of Texture – Stampin’ Up!
I chose to use the lovely Touches of Texture stamp set for this card. I stamped the lacy pattern stamp onto Whisper White cardstock using Rose Red ink, this is such a pretty, dainty stamp. The flower spray was stamped in Early Espresso ink and coloured in using a Blender Pen and the Rose Red ink pad and Crumb Cake ink pad.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Touches of Texture – Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the sentiment from the new Crafting Forever stamp set – love this set as well- in Rose Red ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. I die cut this out using my Big Shot and the Stitched Shapes Framelits and then die cut a scalloped circle from Rose Red cardstock. I adhered the 2 together using Tombow Liquid Adhesive and added them to the stamped piece using Dimensionals having added some Gold Metallic Thread to the back. The whole panel was added to a layer of Early Espresso cardstock, then a layer of Whisper White cardstock. The panel was then added to a Rose Red card base using Dimensionals. I added a Gold Faceted Gem to the circle topper for a bit of bling.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Touches of Texture – Stampin’ Up!
I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock with Tombow Liquid Adhesive to the inside of the card having stamped the pretty lacy image along the bottom in Rose Red ink. I made 6 of these lovely cards to send out to people who have nit managed to get to a class in the last few months – just to say Hi, thinking of you.

I am loving the new This Little Piggy stamp set, it is absolutely adorable and such fun to use. My upline Mikaela Titheridge – https://thecraftyoinkpen.co.uk/ – nearly exploded with excitement when this set was demonstrated at Onstage Live in April, our team name is The Stampin’ STYlettes as Mikaela lives in a converted pig sty – this is therefore such an appropriate set for the team. One of my team mates was lucky enough to receive this set in Prize patrol at Onstage Live and for a minute we thought there might be bloodshed, but luckily Mikaela manged to swap stamps sets with a girl from another team……..
I made this card for Mikaela as a little thank you for all the help and support she has given me over the last 2½ years and especially for her help with a recent order.
www.crafty-rootes.com – This Little Piggy stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I stamped the adorable little piggy onto a layer of Whisper White cardstock using Archival Basic Black ink. Using an Aquapainter I coloured him in using the Powder Pink ink pad for the body, Blushing Bride ink pad for the snout and shading and Crumb Cake ink pad for around the snout and the bottom. As I was using regular Whisper White cardstock I was careful to keep the brush as dry as possible and not to go over the image to often to stop the cardstock ‘pilling’. The ground was coloured using the Crumb Cake ink pad and some grassy tufts added in Wild Wasabi ink. I absolutely love him.
www.crafty-rootes.com – This Little Piggy stamp set by Stampin’ Up!
I pondered adding some ribbon at the top of the panel but decided against it and rounded the top left hand corner instead. I added three of the smallest Subtles Enamel Shapes in the Wild Wasabi colour. I really like all the white space on the panel. The stamped piece was added to a layer of Wild Wasabi cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive before being added to a Powder Pink card base using Dimesionals. I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock to the inside of the card and stamped the pig using Powder Pink ink, the sentiment from the set was added in Archival Basic Black ink.

Thank you to the lovely ladies who came to my classes this month. We had a lot of fun making cards using the gorgeous Daisy Delight stamp set and coordinating Daisy Punch. I love the word ‘coordinating’ because I know that Stampin’ Up! will have made the products so easy to use.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Daisy Delight stamp set and daisy Punch by Stampin’ Up!
The 1st card was very straightforward. We randomly stamped the ‘large daisy flower’ 2 or 3 times using Old Olive ink, Calypso Coral ink and Daffodil Delight ink across a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅞” by 2½”. We then added a ½” by 5⅞” strip of Old Olive cardstock to the top and bottom of the stamped panel using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set was stamped in Calypso Coral ink onto a Scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched out using the new Pretty Label Punch. We also punched out a label in Calypso Coral cardstock using the same punch and glued the 2 together using Tombow Liquid Adhesive, leaving a a small border of the Calypso Coral showing. This piece was then added with Tombow to the bottom of the stamped panel and the whole layer added to a Thick Whisper White card base using Dimensionals.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Daisy Delight stamp set and daisy Punch by Stampin’ Up!
For the 2nd card we took a small panel of Whisper White cardstock to stamp a lot of the wild flower images included in the stamp set. The various stems were stamped in Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz or Garden Green and the flowers in Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral and Berry Burst. Some of the stems and flowers were stamped in 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation ink to give some texture to the piece. We rounded the top left corner of the panel and added it, using Tombow Liquid Adhesive to a layer of Daffodil Delight cardstock having rounded the upper left corner. We stamped the sentiment from the Fabulous Flamingo stamp set in Old Olive ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and flagged the end either with scissors or using the Triple Banner Punch. We flagged a Scrap piece of Old Olive cardstock and added it with Tombow to the card front with the sentiment overlapping. The stamped panel was then added to the left hand side of the Crumb Cake card base using Dimensionals.
The most complicated thing about the 3rd card was the scoring and folding to get the great pop up diamond shape. My inspiration for this card came from a video by Heidi Smith aka flutterbyheidi – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvAK8m5_CcQ&t=307s.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Pop up diamond card template
We took a piece of Thick Whisper White 11” by 4” and using the Stampin’ Trimmer, scored on the long side at 1½”, 3½”. 7½” and 9½” we then slid the cardstock back to 5½” and made a small notch at the top and bottom of the cardstock to mark the mid-point. Using the cutting groove of the Stampin’ Trimmer we lined up the 5½” mark with the bottom 1½” score line and scored a diagonal line joining the two lines and repeated this from the 5½” mark to the top of the 1½” score line. We then repeated this scoring diagonally between the 5½” mark with the 9½” top and bottom. See picture for clarification or watch Heidi’s video. We then folded and burnished the vertical score lines using a Bone Folder, then the diagonal score lines, then folded and burnished the vertical score lines again back on themselves. A gentle push poped out the diamond (for most of the class) hurrah…….. After that decorating was a piece of cake.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Pop up diamond card using Daisy Delight stamp set and punch by Stampin’ Up!
We stamped the large daisy stamp twice using Old Olive ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punched out both daisies using the Daisy Punch. Using a Sponge Dauber, Daffodil Delight ink pad and a non-stick craft mat we sponged a little colour onto the petals of one of the punched daisies before adhering them together, offset, using Tombow glue. When the glue was dry we used a Bone Folder to curl the petals giving dimension to the project. The daisy was then added to a panel of Whisper White cardstock using Tombow and this panel was glued to a piece of Pool Party cardstock leaving a tiny border. The whole piece was then glued to the pop up diamond on the front of the card base. A Gold Faceted Gem was added to the centre of the daisy. We then stamped 2 daisy stems onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock in Old Olive ink and added the flower head in 1st and 3rd generation Daffodil Delight ink and repeated with a 2nd piece of Whisper White. Both of these panels were then added to a layer of Pool Party cardstock using Tombow before adding to the panels on either side of the card base. We finished the project by making an envelope using the Envelope Punch Board.
The ladies all loved this stamp set and I really enjoyed their company at this month’s classes. Oh, and I made some sweet little co-ordinating (there goes that word again) table gifts. Cute aren’t they.
