I stamped the rhino using Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a panel of Whisper White 3” by 3” and die cut it out using the Layering Circle dies and my Big Shot. I coloured the rhino using the Light & Dark Smoky Slate and Ivory Blends pens. The tiny bird was coloured using the Light Calypso Coral. I backed the stamped piece onto a Scalloped circle cut from Calypso Coral cardstock using my Big Shot and Layering Circle Dies.

Taking a Thick Whisper White card base I adhered a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added a piece of Garden Impressions dsp 5⅜” by 3⅝” and placed a 4” by ⅜” strip of Shaded Spruce from left to right to add interest to the panel. The stamped panel was then added overtop on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Such a quirky little card, hope you like it.

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.

Gorgeous trio of cards using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Blended Seasons Classes

Today I am sharing the cards we made during this month’s classes. We used the gorgeous Blended Seasons stamp set and the co-ordinating Stitched Seasons dies. This set is only available until the 31st August or while stocks last so if you like it don’t wait to buy it. I decided to use this set to do a masterclass in colouring using Blends, Watercolor Pencils with Blender Pens and ink pads with Aquapainters.

Gorgeous trio of cards using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

Card 1 – Blossoms

The first card was very straight forward but to ensure everyone got a crisp stamped image we mounted the stamp onto the Stampartus. We stamped onto a panel of Whisper White measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” using Momento Tuxedo Black ink. The ladies then chose a duo of Blends Pens to colour the flowers and a second set to colour the leaves. The sample used the Cherry Coober duo for 2 flowers and the Poppy Parade duo for the 3rd flower. I used the Granny Apple Green duo for the leaves.

Gorgeous floral card using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

Using the Detailed Trio Punch we rounded the upper left corner of the stamped panel and a panel of Basic Gray measuring 5½” by 3¾” and adhered the two together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. We stamped the sentiment in Momento Tuxedo Black ink. Using the Blends pens we coloured some pearls to co-ordinate with the coloured image and added them to the panel before adhering it to a Thick Whisper White card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Card 2 – Christmas!!!!!

In my opinion it is never too early to make Christmas cards and thankfully my ladies were prepared to indulge me! We began by taking a piece of Shimmery White cardstock and die cutting the middle stitched shape from the gorgeous Stitched Seasons dies. These are lovely dies used on their own but absolutely stunning when layered together.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We stamped the sentiment and the holly boughs in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto the die cut Shimmery White piece and coloured them in using the lovely Watercolor Pencils from the original set and the set currently available until August 31st. We then blended the colour with Blender Pens.

Taking a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock 5¼” by 3½” we stamped the sweet leaf image in the left upper and right lower corners using Garden Green ink and adhered the label to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. We added a strip of Cherry Cobbler 5⅞” by ⅜” across the centre and added the coloured panel on top using Stampin’ Dimensionals. We added a scattering of coloured Basic Pearls to the panel.

Card 3 – Autumnal Easel

We started making this card by die cutting the lovely stitched frames using the Big shot. The largest shape was cut from Cherry Cobbler cardstock and the medium size from Shimmery White cardstock. We also die cut the sweet leaf shape from the Stitched Seasons dies from Copper Foil Paper.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We stamped the gorgeous leaf image in Versamark ink onto the Shimmery White die cut piece and covered it with Copper Embossing powder which we heat set with the Heat Tool……….and yes most of us remembered to use the Embossing Buddy.

Gorgeous Autumnal Easel card using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We used Cherry Cobbler ink pad, Pumpkin Pie ink pad, Crushed Curry ink pad and Garden Green ink pad and Aquapainters to colour in the image. Love the effect watercoloring gives and the fact that you can layer up the colour to get a rich, intense colour. WE stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink before adhering the stamped layer to the Cherry Cobbler layer.

We added the panel to a card base of Thick Whisper White 11¾” by 4⅛”, scored at 2 15/16ths and 5⅞”. You need to make sure you only add glue to the bottom half of the panel or the card fold won’t work properly. The copper leaf is then added to the inside of the card on Dimensionals to act as a stopper. We added coloured Basic Pearls to finish the card.

Making a purple elephant card

I began by stamping the larger of the 2 elephants onto a scrap of Whisper White using Gorgeous Grape ink and punched it out using the co-ordinating Elephant Builder Punch.

Painted Glass celebration card using Stampin' Up! product

Painted Glass for a team member promotion

Today I am sharing a card I made recently using the Painted Glass Stamp set and co-ordinating Stained Glass dies. I made the card for my lovely team member Jill who promoted to Bronze Elite, well done Jill.

Making the painted Glass card

I started by using my Embossing Buddy on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock then stamping the gorgeous sentiment from the Painted Glass stamp set in Versamark ink. I covered the sentiment with Copper Embossing Powder before using my Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder. I really love this gothic style font and it looks amazing when embossed.

On another scrap of Whisper White card I stamped the rose image 4 times in Versamark ink, covered it with Copper Embossing Powder then heated it with my Heat Tool. Taking the Flirty Flamingo ink and the Highland Heather ink and Sponge daubers I applied ink to all the flowers. When they were all coloured I ran them through my Big Shot with the co-ordinating Stained Glass dies.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Painted Glass stamp set by Stampin’ Up for a team promotion

I cut a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5¼” by 3½” and added a strip of Flirty Flamingo cardstock and a strip of Highland Heather cardstock 4½” by ¼” diagonally across the panel and added the stamped oval over the top on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then added the 4 roses to the panel with either Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive or Stampin’ Dimensionals. For some added interest I rounded the upper right corner with the Detailed trio Punch.I added this panel to a layer of Highland Heather cardstock 4 ½” by 3 ¾”. This whole layer was added to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. As a final touch I added a scattering of Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

I really like this card and colour combo. I hope Jill likes it

A masculine apron for the Stamp 'N Hop Blog Hop

Masculine Apron for the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop

Stamp 'N Hop blog hop by Mo Rootes

Welcome to this month’s Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop where the theme is Masculine 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 her projects have given you some welcome inspiration, please continue to hop on and see what the other hoppers have to share with us this month.

So many of us struggle with making cards for the boys and men in our life, myself included.  Today I have chosen to share a card I made for a friend who loves a good barbeque.

Making the card

I started by choosing a piece of designer series paper (dsp) from the gorgeous Tropical Escape dsp stack. I wanted something muted and more masculine looking as I wanted to stamp on it. Having selected my paper I took it to the Big Shot and die cut an apron using the Apron Builder Framelit dies. I also die cut a pocket, a neck band and some utensils from scraps of Whisper White, Granny Apple Green and Blueberry Bushel cardstock.

Next I took the Make a Difference stamp set and using the individual letters stamped out ‘BBQ’ in Shaded Spruce ink onto the die cut apron. I stamped the word ‘King’ onto the Whisper White apron pocket in the same ink. I then assembled the apron adding the neck band, pocket and BBQ tools with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I stamped the tiny leaves from the Apron of Love stamp set on the pocket in Granny Apple Green ink.

I choose another bolder pattern from the Tropical Escape dsp stack and cut it to 5⅜” by 3⅝”, rounded the upper left and lower right corner using the Detailed Trio Punch and added it to a panel of Granny Apple Green cardstock, 5½” by 3¾” with identically rounded corners.

I added the apron using Stampin’ Dimensionals to a piece of Vellum cardstock 4⅝” by 3⅞” with identically rounded corners. This was added to the panel with Multipurpose Adhesive which was only applied under the apron where it would not be seen.

Taking a piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock 11¾” by 4⅛” I scored it at 5 ½” and 2 and 15/16ths to make an easel card. The card topper was then added to the front by apply Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the bottom half of the panel.

I die cut the oven glove twice from the dsp and twice from Granny Apple Green cardstock and glued the 2 together with Multipurpose glue to make them a little sturdier and added them half way up the inside of the card to hold the easel in place.

I am really happy with how the card turned out. I hope you like it. Please hop on the see what Anastasia Radloff has to share with us.

Christmas Wreath using the Painted Harvest stamp set

Today I am sharing the card I made for this month’s team challenge the theme of which was ‘make a Christmas project using non Christmas supplies. I decided to try making a Christmas Wreath using my Stamparatus and the Painted Harvest stamp set which hasn’t had a lot of love recently

Before starting this card I watched the video by Dawn of DoStamping –  where she explains how to make a template to use with the Stamparatus. I used my retired Square dies and Window Sheet to make the template for this particular; I wanted a larger sized wreath.

Making the Christmas Wreath card

I began by placing my Window Sheet template in the corner of my Stamparatus. I placed a 3¾” square of Whisper White cardstock in the negative space at the centre of the template; the square is exactly the same size as the negative space. I placed the solid leaf stamp onto the Whisper White cardstock and picked it up with one of the plates.

Pretty Christmas Wreath made using the Stamparatus and the Painted Harvest stamp set

www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Wreath made using the Painted Harvest stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

I inked the stamp with Granny Apple Green ink and stamped it down. I rotated the cardstock one turn within the template and inked up and stamped the leaf image in the same way. I repeated this step by stamping the leaf all the way round the panel.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Wreath made using the Painted Harvest stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

Next I positioned the more detailed leaf stamp, inked up in Mossy Meadow ink and stamped it around the wreath as before. I stamped the sentiment from the Mistletoe Season stamp set in the centre of the wreath in Real Red ink and added some of the gorgeous new Red Rhinestones to give some colour and shine.

I ran a 5⅝” by 3⅞” panel of Real Red cardstock through the Big Shot with the Layering Leaves embossing folder and added the stamped panel on top with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a piece of ⅜” Real Red Cotton Ribbon around the join securing it on the back with Sellotape. The whole panel was then added to a Thick Whisper White card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Finally I added a bow in the same ribbon.

Bokeh Dots and Birds for a sweet thinking of you card. Products by Stampin' Up!

Bokeh Dots and Birds

Today I am sharing a sweet card featuring Bokeh Dots and birds. The card was made using the gorgeous Bokeh Dots stamp set, I used the more ‘starburst effect image’ and the lovely flying birds from the High Tide stamp set.

Making the Bokeh Dots card

I began with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅜” and placed it into the corner of the Stamparatus. The starburst image was stamped in Balmy Blue ink. I then stamped the flying birds in Momento Tuxedo Black ink. I repeated this step twice more as I wanted the image to be really dark, love that you can do this on the Stamparatus.

I rounded the upper left corner of the panel with the Detailed Trio Punch and adhered the Whisper White panel to a layer of Blueberry Bushel cardstock 5½” by 3¾” with an identical rounded corner. I wrapped a piece of Blueberry Bushel ⅛” ribbon around both layer and tied it in a simple knot before adhering the whole piece to a Balmy Blue card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added a Whisper White panel 5⅜” by 3⅝” to the inside of the card and decorated it with the stamped flying birds.
