Poinsettia Bauble for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Posted on November 27, 2021November 25, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Tree Decorations’ – such a fun challenge. I have used the gorgeous Poinsettia Dies to make a hanging bauble for my tree.

Colours used in the Poinsettia Bauble are:

To recreate this project, you will need:

4” wooden circle
Real Red card – 8¼” by 3¼”
Garden Green card – 4½” by 2”
Scrap Gold Foil

Using a Big Bite hole puncher, I punched hole at the top of the 4” wooden circle. I used the Birch background stamp and Early Espresso ink and stamped it onto the circle and set it aside to dry. I mounted the stamp on a Stamparatus Plate as I find this easier to manage.

With my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I die cut the largest three flowers from the Poinsettia Dies. I cut the outline and the embossing piece at the same time.

I used a Bone Folder to curve the petals, the largest one downwards and the other two layers upwards. I adhered the middle piece to the largest piece with a Dimensional and then added the smaller flower to the middle layer with a Mini Dimensional. I cut a flower centre from scrap Gold Foil and added it with Multicoloured Liquid Adhesive. I covered the petals with Clear Wink of Stella to give a bit of sparkle.

The Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop using a scrap piece of inked Vellum die cut into a trio of butterflies

Trio of Butterflies for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Posted on November 25, 2021November 15, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are using something from our stash in a project today. I have a piece of inked vellum on my craft desk, left over from September’s classes – see the post on the 17^th September 2021, and have used it to make a card featuring a trio of butterflies.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the double butterfly card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Magenta Madness card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Vellum – big enough to die cut your butterflies

I used Magenta Madness, Dark Pumpkin Pie and Dark Daffodil Delight Blends Alcohol Markers to scribble blocks of colour all over the Vellum taking care not to overlap the colours which would contaminate the lighter colour nibs.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful card featuring a trio of butterflies made from inked vellum for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Using a pipette filled with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and smacked it against a Bone Folder to spray small dots of alcohol all over the Vellum. This allows the ink to start spreading, such a cool effect. The Vellum piece was then set aside to dry.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful card featuring a trio of butterflies made from inked vellum for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Using second generation Pale Papaya ink I stamped the larger circle image from the Watercolor Shapes stamp set in the centre of the smaller Basic White panel. The dotty image was stamped in full strength Pale Papaya randomly across the stamped circle.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful card featuring a trio of butterflies made from inked vellum for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Taking the dry vellum panel and the Brilliant Wings Dies I die cut 3 of the small butterflies. Vellum can be tricky to die cut with a detailed die and I find placing the die, cutting side up gives me the best cut. I used the Take Your Pick Die Brush to get out the fiddly pieces.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful card featuring a trio of butterflies made from inked vellum for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

The sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Magenta Madness ink. The stamped panel was then glued to the Magenta Madness layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and added to the Thick Basic White card front using the same liquid glue.

The butterflies were added to the card front on Mini Glue Dots and the card decorated with a trio of 2021 – 2023 In Color Jewels.

I hope you like it.
