Stampin' Up! products used to make a pretty card featuring an alcohol inked background and a tree canopy

Inked Canopy

I have been having fun playing with Blends Markers and Alcohol………such fun, add in the Inspiring Canopy Dies and I have one gorgeous inked canopy card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Inked Canopy card, you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Misty Moonlight card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2, one for the inside

I used the following dark Blends Markers – Bermuda Bay, Misty Moonlight, Just Jade and Balmy Blue to scribble blocks of colour onto the Vellum. I dipped an almost empty Clear Wink of Stella Brush to splatter and dab 90% alcohol onto the Vellum allowing the ink to spread and pool. The panel was then set aside to dry.

Crafty Collaboration Vacation Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Vacation Blog Hop where we are thinking about holidays. I know many people can’t wait to start travelling again and are dreaming about where they will go first. I am going to Scotland to see my family in August, they live on the North-East coast and my card reflects the sea and coast. This is a picture of the place where my Mum and Dad are from with the ruined 14th century red sandstone castle on the cliff by the beach……. just beautiful.

Colours used in this project:

 To recreate the vacation card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Pacific Point card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside

I began by stamping the lighthouse, from the Sailing Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider ink onto one of the Basic White panels. I stamped the image again on a Post It Note, cut it out to use as a mask. The mask was placed over the stamped image.

When the bleach was dry, I inked up the stamp again with the Soft Succulent ink and stamped again over the top of the flowers to give the image more definition.

I glued the stamped panel to the So Saffron panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of the gorgeous Gold Shimmer Ribbon around the layer, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The panel was added to the Evening Evergreen card base using the same liquid glue.

The sentiment from the Elegantly Said stamp set was stamped on scrap Basic White card in Evening Evergreen ink. I punched the sentiment out using the Tailored Tag Punch. The white tag looked so bright against the stamped image so I inked up the Daisy Garden stamp in Soft Succulent ink, stamped it off on scrap paper and stamped it over the sentiment. Much better. The sentiment was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I cut one of these pieces in half again and mounted both strips onto one of the larger Basic White panels with the liquid glue. I wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adhering it to the Daffodil Delight card base.  Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut 2 labels, one from the small piece of Basic White and the other from the larger piece of Soft Succulent. The sentiment was stamped on the smaller label in Soft Succulent ink, the panels were the glued together and mounted on the card front on Dimensionals. I added a bow on a Mini Glue Dot.

Using one of the large images I stamped in Soft Succulent ink onto the Soft Succulent card base. The Basic White panel was added to the centre of the card front. The remaining stamped panel was added to the Evening Evergreen layer with liquid glue, then to the Basic White panel on the Soft Succulent card base. Using Polished Pink ink, I stamped the sentiment onto scrap Basic White card and trimmed it out with scissors. I added a scrap piece of Soft Succulent to the back of the sentiment and glued it to the card base.

A really simple cookie themed thank you card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Blog Hop

Thank You Cookies for the Kylie Bertucci Demonstrator Training Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Kylie Bertucci Demonstrator Training Blog Hop where we are sharing the thank you cards made for our customers. You are currently with Mo Rootes from near Cambridge in the UK. This month I have made a thank you cookies card using the lovely Nothing’s Better Than stamp set. Who can resist a cookie?

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Thank you Cookies card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Early Espresso – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – rounded upper right corner
Basic White – 3” by 1¾”

 Taking one of the larger panels of Basic White I drew around the inside of one of the Tasteful Label Dies in the centre of the panel. This gave me a frame around which I could stamp the image.

I stamped the image of the cookie onto 2 Post It Notes and cut them out using sharp scissors. I used these as masks when stamping the images.

Using Early Espresso ink, I stamped the first cookie. I placed a mask over the stamped image and stamped again in 2nd generation Early Espresso ink. I continued stamping and masking around the pencil shape.

Using the in-fill stamp I coloured the images in 1st and 2nd generation Crumb Cake ink, masking in the same way. The stamped panel was added to the Crumb Cake card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The same glue was used to add the panel to the Crumb Cake card base.

Color & Contour stamp set by Stampin' Up! used to make a pair of cards using a modified one sheet wonder

Modified One Sheet Wonder

Today I am sharing 2 sweet floral cards made using a modified one sheet wonder (I only used ½ a sheet of card stock) and the new Color & Contour stamp set. This set is so versatile and so easy to use. I also used the gorgeous new 2021 – 2023 in colors.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the modified one sheet wonder cards, you will need:

Basic White card 7¾” by 5½”
Scrap Basic White for the sentiments

Polished Pink card base
Soft Succulent 5⅝ by 4”
Basic White 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

Evening Evergreen card base
Polished Pink 5⅝” by 4”
Basic White 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

I began by stamping the outline large flower in clusters of 3 down the centre of the large panel of Basic White. I used Evening Evergreen ink and 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamping.  The flowers were in-filled using the solid stamp and Polished Pink ink, again using 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamping.

The outline spray of flowers was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink, I chose not to ink up the full stem of this image. The infill colour for this image was stamped in 1st generation Pale Papaya ink

Using Soft Succulent ink, I filled in some of the gaps using the outline leaf image using 1st and 2nd generation stamping.

Next, I added an outline bud in 1st and 2nd generation Soft Succulent ink and added the Fresh Freesia ink as the fill in using 1st generation only.

The speckles were added in 2nd and 3rd generation Soft Succulent ink. When all this was done, I cut the panel in half on the long side at 3¾”. I wrapped a length of Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon around one of the panels.

Using the Penned Flower dies and my Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine I die cut a scalloped border down the right side of the Soft Succulent and Polished Pink panels. The stamped panels were then added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I trimmed the Polished Pink piece on the left-hand side as I had managed not to cut the panel straight. They were then added to the Evening Evergreen and Polished Pink card bases on Dimensionals. I added a small piece of Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon to the Evening Evergreen card.

The sentiments came from the Many Messages stamp set, stamped using a Stamparatus on a panel of Basic White card and die cut using the Messages Dies. I keep the spares in a box for when I need a small sentiment, like today. They were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The chosen sentiments were added on Dimensionals to the card front.

I added a Polished Pink bow to the pink card with a Mini Glue Dot and to complete each card I added a trio of 2021 – 2023 In Color Jewels.
