Posted on February 19, 2019February 26, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a card made for the Global Design Project – GDP #177 challenge using the stunning new Painted Seasons stamp set and co-ordinating Four Seasons dies. The challenge this week is to use the colours Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green.

Making the GDP#177 card

I began by stamping the gorgeous flower in Melon Mambo ink onto some scrap Whisper White cardstock. I added three of the leaf fronds to the scrap piece using Granny Apple Green ink and die cut all of the images using the Four Seasons dies and my Big Shot.

I die cut a rectangle using the Rectangle Stitched dies and a piece of Whisper White cardstock. This was mounted onto a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock measuring 3¾” by 2⅝” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The sentiment from the Forever Lovely stamp set was then added at the top of the rectangle with Granny Apple Green ink.

I added the die cut leaves behind the die cut flower using Mini Glue Dots to secure them in place. I added the whole topper piece to the lower right hand corner of the rectangular piece using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I placed the rectangular panel face down on my work top and added a strip of Snail down the centre. I then added the gorgeous reversible ribbon by zigzagging it from side to side adhering it to the strip of Snail Adhesive.

I added Stampin Dimensionals to the back of the whole piece and added it to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base. I then stamped some of the clusters of stars using Coastal Cabana ink. To finish the card front I added a trio of the lovely Glitter Enamel Dots.

Painted Seasons used for Team Training

Posted on February 17, 2019February 16, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a card made as a Make and take project for our Team Training event and using the new Painted Seasons stamp set. This gorgeous stamp set is only available as one of the free Sale-a-Bration choices with a £90 order until the 1^st – 31^st March. It comes as a bundle with a gorgeous pack of designer series paper which I am not using today.

Making the Painted Seasons card

www.crafty-rootes.com – thePianted Seasons stamp set used for a make and take for team training

I started with a scarp piece of Whisper White cardstock. I inked up the stunning flower image with Poppy Parade ink and before stamping it down I added Cherry Cobbler ink in the centre and around the edges of the flower using a Sponge Dauber. This is a distINKtive syle stamp so looks very 3 dimensional when stamped and the added darker shade of red really enhances this look. I die cut the image using my Big Shot and the co-ordinating Four Seasons Framelit dies.

www.crafty-rootes.com – thePianted Seasons stamp set used for a make and take for team training

I placed my die cut flower onto a layer of Whisper White measuring 5⅛” by 3⅜”, inked up the larger leaf image with Mossy Meadow ink, moved the flower slightly and stamped the image down. I then stamped again without re-inking. I repeated this step on the other side of the flower. The smaller leaf image was then added in 1^st and 2^nd generation Sahara Sand ink. I then added the little clusters of tiny stars in 1^st and 2^nd generation Mint Macaron ink.

I wrapped a piece of retired Mossy Meadow Thick Baker’s Twine around the stamped layer and tied in a bow. I had planned to use the lovely Old Olive Linen Thread but couldn’t find it………..

www.crafty-rootes.com – thePianted Seasons stamp set used for a make and take for team training

I rounded the upper left corner of the stamped layer and a layer of Poppy Parade cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” using the Detailed Trio Punch and adhered the two layers together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used the same adhesive to add this panel to a Mossy Meadow card base with a rounded upper left corner. The die cut flower was then added over the leaves with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.com – thePianted Seasons stamp set used for a make and take for team training

The sentiment from the Needle and Thread stamp set was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink. I stamped the flower and the larger leaf onto a panel of Whisper White (with a rounded upper left corner) and added this to the inside of the card. The same images were then stamped on a Whisper White Envelope.

I love this stamp set, the images are absolutely stunning……don’t miss out.

A Valentine card made for my husband using the Rooted In Nature stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Rooted In Nature non-traditional Valentine Card

Posted on February 16, 2019February 16, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the Valentine’s card I made for my husband. It is a non-traditional valentine card as he would hate a lovey dovey, hearts and flowers card. I used the Rooted In Nature stamp set to make a card featuring leaves and nature which he loves.

Making the non-traditional Valentine card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅞” by 2⅛”. I selected a variety of leaves from the Rooted In Nature stamp set and chose a variety of green inks with which to stamp them, starting with the largest images and filling up the space with the smaller leaves. The inks I used were Shaded Spruce, Old olive, Pear Pizzazz and Soft Sea Foam, I deliberately overlapped some of the images to give a fuller look.

When the ink was dry I rubbed over the panel with my Embossing Buddy before stamping one of the images again in Versamark ink. I covered the panel with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. So pretty….

www.crafty-rootes.com – the Rooted In Nature stamp set by Stampin’ Up! used for a non-traditional Valentine card

I cut a panel of Shaded Spruce at 5⅞” by 2⅜”and adhered it to the back of the stamped and embossed layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I cut a piece of Gold Foil at 5⅞” by ½” and added it to the right hand side of the panel before adhering the whole piece to a Soft Sea Foam card base.

www.crafty-rootes.com – the Rooted In Nature stamp set by Stampin’ Up! used for a non-traditional Valentine card

I cut a strip of Vellum 2⅛ by 1” and stamped the word YOU from the Well Said stamp set in Versamark ink, covered it with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. I die cut the word LOVE from a scrap of Shaded Spruce cardstock using the Well Written framelit dies and my Big Shot. I added the die cut to the vellum using tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added the vellum panel to the card front with tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive hidden behind the words.

I am really happy with this non-traditional Valentine card and I am sure my husband will like it too.

Needle & Thread for February’s Classes

Posted on February 15, 2019February 14, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing the 3 cards the ladies made in this week’s classes using the Needle & Thread stamp set and the co-ordinating Needlepoint Elements dies.

Card 1

www.crafty-rootes.com -the gorgeous Needle & Thread stamp set and co-ordinating dies used for classes

We started with the most time consuming card first. Using scrap Whisper White cardstock the ladies stamped the all the elements ready to die cut them out. The large flower was stamped in Highland Heather ink, the smaller flower in Poppy Parade ink, the trio of flowers were stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and the leaves in Pool Party ink.

We embossed a panel of Whisper White 4½” by 3” using the detailed stitched pattern. We rounded the upper right corner and glued the embossed panel to a slightly larger piece of Pool Party. Using all the die cut pieces we then built up the group of flowers using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and Stampin Dimensionals. We then added the completed panel to a Poppy Parade card base. A decorated Whisper White panel was added inside the card.

Card 2

www.crafty-rootes.com -the gorgeous Needle & Thread stamp set and co-ordinating dies used for classes

We started with a small piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3⅝”by 2½”. We stamped the stitched edge along the top and down the left side of the piece in Gorgeous Grape ink. Next the leaves were stamped in Pool Party ink and the large flower was added using Poppy Parade ink.

The Needle & Thread stamp set has a great choice of sentiments for the ladies to choose from and they stamped their chosen sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink. We rounded the lower right corner of the Whisper White Panel and added it to a layer of Gorgeous Grape cardstock measuring 3¾” by 2⅝”.

Using the really sweet trio of butterflies we stamped the front of a Pool Party card base and added the stamped panel on top with Stampin’ Dimensionals. We then tucked in scraps of Highland Heather, Poppy Parade and Gorgeous Grape cardstock to add a little more interest to the card.

Card 3

www.crafty-rootes.com -the gorgeous Needle & Thread stamp set and co-ordinating dies used for classes

This card was so simple to make. We started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5¼” by 3½. We randomly stamped all the images starting with the largest and working through to the smallest stamps. We used the same colour combination of Highland Heather ink, Poppy Parade ink, Gorgeous Grape ink and Pool Party ink. The ladies chosen sentiment was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and added to a strip of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. The stamped panel was added to a layer of Poppy Parade cardstock……..and yes I did round a corner of both layers.

The panel was then added to a Thick Whisper White card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the sentiment was added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. We added a bow using the gorgeous Highland Heather Organza Ribbon.

Posted on February 14, 2019February 13, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the Hello Cupcake stamp set for the CTD530 colour challenge. This stamp set is so versatile and so easy to use. I love it.

Making the card

I started by stamping the cupcake case in Smoky Slate ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. I also stamped the frosting in Berry Burst ink on the same piece of scrap Whisper White. Using my scissors I cut them out – the good news is that on the 1^st March a new set of dies will be available to cut out these images…….hooray……I am not a big fan of fussy cutting. I added the frosting to the cupcake case with a little Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and set it to one side.

Amazing Life for the GDP #176 – CASE the designer

Posted on February 11, 2019February 11, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a card I designed for the Global Design Project #176 – CASE the Designer Challenge. I loved the rainbow colours in Steffi’s beautiful card and made that my starting point.

Making the card

I began by choosing the image I wanted to use. It had to be fairly small and ideally a fairly open image. In the end I went for the sweet little flower stamp in the Amazing Life stamp set.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Amazing Life stamp set used for the Global Design Project #176 CASE the designer challenge

Next I looked at colours; I knew I wanted a rainbow to mimic Steffi’s card and tried out a few variations of colour before settling for – Berry Burst, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove, Granny Apple Green, Blueberry Bushel and Gorgeous Grape – in hind sight I should have gone for Lovelly Lipstick as my first colour but completely forgot about it……..it’s been that kind of day.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Amazing Life stamp set used for the Global Design Project #176 CASE the designer challenge

After stamping the flower in each of the colours onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5¼” by 3½” I rounded the upper left corner with my Detailed Trio Punch. I added a layer of Basic Gray layer 5⅜” by 3⅝” behind the Whisper White panel having rounded the same corner and using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Amazing Life stamp set used for the Global Design Project #176 CASE the designer challenge

I added the whole stamped panel to the front of a Granny Apple Green card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Basic Gray on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock ⅜” wide. This was then trimmed down and one end flagged using my scissors. I added the sentiment to a scrap of Granny Apple Green ½” wide and trimmed to fit. This was added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Hello and welcome to February’s Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop where this month’s theme is Love. If you have hopped over form Andre Gordon’s blog I am sure you loved his gorgeous project. I decided to use the gorgeous Piece of Cake stamp set and co-ordinating Cake Builder Punch to make a wedding cake card for the daughter of a friend who is marrying in the spring.

Making the card

I started by stamping the floral cake image, so pretty, in Early Espresso ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Cake Builder Punch. I coloured the flowers in using the Lovely Lipstick Combo Blends Pens, Call Me Clover Combo Blends Pens, dark Balmy Blue blend Pen and the Light Daffodil Delight Blend Pen.

I punched the cake stand out from some of the gorgeous Lovely Lipstick Foil which is one of the free Sale-a-Bration items you can choose with a £45 order. I stuck the cake to the stand with a dimensional where they joined at the back and added a couple more dimensionals to support the cake and stand.

www.crafty-rootes.com – The Piece of cake stamp set used for the Love themed Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4¾” by 3”. I mounted the smaller of the 2 Bokeh Dot stamps from the Beauty Abounds stamp set. I inked it up in Lovely Lipstick ink, stamped off twice and stamped it onto the lower right hand corner of the panel. I repeated this twice more before inked up with Call Me Clover then Balmy Blue stamping each off twice.

I stamped the sentiment from the Piece of Cake stamp set in Lovely Lipstick ink in the lower left hand corner. The cake and stand was then added over the bokeh dots on the dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.com – The Piece of cake stamp set used for the Love themed Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

The Whisper White stamped layer was the added to a piece of Lovely Lipstick Foil 5” by 1½” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Lovely Lipstick ⅛” Grosgrain Ribbon around the top of the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. I added a bow made from the same ribbon with a Mini Glue Dot. The whole panel was then added to a Thick Whisper White card base with Dimensionals.
