Evergreen Christmas Tree card

Posted on August 27, 2021July 22, 2021 by Mo Rootes

I really love Christmas and Christmas crafting and am sharing an evergreen Christmas tree card made using the Evergreen Elegance stamp set paired with the Natural Textiles stamp set and Scalloped Contour Dies.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the evergreen Christmas tree card, you will need:

Smoky Slate card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Shaded Spruce card – 5⅞” by 3”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 2¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic Gray card – 2” by 1¼”

I inked up one of the gorgeous background stamps from the Natural Textiles stamp set in Smoky Slate ink. I stamped off twice before stamping the image down the left and right side of the Smoky Slate card front.

I inked the same stamp again with the same ink, stamped off once then stamped onto the strip of Basic White card. I repeated this 3 times covering the whole panel.

Using the tall tree, I stamped in Shaded Spruce onto the bottom of the stamped strip in 1^st and 2^nd generation ink. This step was repeated to fill up the bottom of the panel.

Using the Scalloped Contour Dies, I cut the scalloped border using the Shaded Spruce card and added it behind the stamped layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped a piece of Silver Mesh Ribbon around the panel and tied it in a bow, securing the bow with a Mini Glue Dot.

The sentiment from the For Unto Us stamp set (so happy this set has returned) was stamped in Versamark ink onto the small piece of Basic Gray card, covered in White Embossing Powder and heat set using a Heat Tool. I used a Tailor-Made Tag Die to cut out the sentiment, I actually shorted the die cut as it was too long, and added it under the bow with a Mini Glue Dot.

I added a trio of Holiday Rhinestones to complete the card. I love it, so pretty.

A gorgeous Christmas card made using the Peaceful Cabin stamp set by Stampin' Up! and made for a team swap

Team Swaps – Peaceful Cabin

Posted on August 1, 2021August 3, 2021 by Mo Rootes

We had a fun team meeting yesterday, first in person meet since before Christmas 2019. It was so lovely to see everyone again and to share news and inspiration. As part of the event many of us made swaps to share and I chose to make mine using the Peaceful Cabin stamp set from the July – December 2021 mini catalogue which launches to customers on the 3^rd August.

I stamped the cabin in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. I was making multiple cards for the team swap and the Stamparatus gave me the opportunity to stamp the image many times with ease. I could also re-stamp if I wanted the image to be darker. Love my Stamparatus.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A snowy peaceful cabin in the woods for my team meeting swap card, using Stampin’ Up! products

I stamped the image again on a Post It Note, cut it out and used it to mask the cabin before stamping the large trees in Mossy Meadow ink.

The mask was left in place and I added a 1” circle mask for the moon. Using a Blending Brush, I added Balmy Blue ink to create the sky behind the cabin and trees. The masks were then removed.
