We stamped the card front in Polished Pink ink.

The small Basic White panel was run through the Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine with the Bricks & Mortar Embossing Folder and was then adhered to the Evening Evergreen panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. We wrapped a piece of Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adding it to the card base on Dimensionals.

We die cut the flower from scrap Basic White card and added ink using Sponge Daubers. The flower was then added to the card front with the liquid glue.

The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink ink onto scrap Basic White card and was punched out using the Double Oval Punch. We punched a Polished Pink oval as a backing and added it to the card front with glue.

Finally, we added a bow and a trio of 2021 – 2023 In Color Jewels.

Evening Evergreen card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

We stamped the script image in 1st, 2nd & 3rd generation Soft Succulent ink randomly all over one of the Basic White panels then added some speckles in 1st and 2nd generation Fresh Freesia ink randomly over the same panel.  The panel was glued to the front of the Evening Evergreen card front.

Using the Stitched Rectangle Dies we die cut a rectangle from the Evening Evergreen panel. The speckles were stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto the corners of the frame and the frame was mounted onto the Evening Evergreen card front.

We die cut a selection of flowers from scrap Basic White card using the Meadow dies and coloured them using Blending Brushes. The flowers were added with glue and/or Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto scrap Basic White, trimmed and added to the card front.

We added jewels to the flower centres to complete the card.

We stamped the speckled image in all 4 corners of the Fresh Freesia card base in Fresh Freesia ink.

Taking a blending brush, we added Whisper White ink to the centre of the Evening Evergreen panel to create a halo effect.

Taking the Scalloped Contour Dies I die cut a scalloped border from the Basic White strip 4½” by 1½” and glued the border to the back of the Evening Evergreen piece. The whole panel was added to the Fresh Freesia card front on Dimensionals

We die cut some flowers and used Water Painters to add ink to them. They were then added to the card front with liquid glue.

The sentiment was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto the smaller piece of Basic White and die cut a label. Using Tear ‘n Tape we added a strip f Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon to the back of the label and added it to the card front with glue.

A scattering of jewels was added to the card front to completed the card.

The larger Rococo Rose panel was added to the card front using the same adhesive. Placing the ‘frame’ onto the card front I added the same adhesive to the back of the stamped piece and nestled it inside the frame. The frame was then lifted away abd foam adhesive strips added all round the rectangular aperture making sure to leave no gaps.

Sweet bokeh dot and butterfly card made for a sketch and colour challenge

Beauty Abounds for 2 challenges

Today I am sharing a sweet card made for the Freshly Made Sketches #374 Challenge using the colours for the CAS Colours & Sketches #307 challenge. I chose to use the lovely bokeh dots from the Beauty Abounds stamp set paired with the small butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set.

Making the card

Sweet bokeh dot and butterfly card made for a sketch and colour challenge

www.crafty-rootes.com – Beauty Abounds and Butterfly Gala used for the Freshly Made Sketches #374 challenge and the CAS Colours & Sketches #307 challenge

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝”. I stamped the larger and smaller bokeh dot images up the right hand side of the panel in 1st and 2nd generation Lovely Lipstick ink and Powder Pink ink. I just love these dots, they are so, so versatile and make great backgrounds.

I stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set in Gray Granite ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. I punched this out using the Tailored Tag Punch. I also punched the same tag in Lovely Lipstick and Powder Pink cardstock. I cut each of the coloured tags across the middle from side to side and added them behind the Whisper White tag, allowing a little of each colour to show. The whole tag was then added to the stamped panel on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I rounded the upper right hand corner with the Detailed Trio Punch………….I know, I just can’t help myself! I adhered the stamped panel, using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, to a layer of gray Granite cardstock 5½” by 3¾” with a rounded upper right corner. This was then added using the same adhesive to the front of a Lovely Lipstick card base.

I stamped 3 small butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Gray Granite ink, punched them out using the Butterfly Duet Punch and added them to the Whisper White panel using Mini Glue Dots. To finish the front of the card I added some of the Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots in the Lovely Lipstick to the centre of each butterfly and scattered a few among the bokeh dots.

I stamped the large and small bokeh dots and the butterfly in the lower left hand corner of a panel of Whisper White cardstock  5⅜” by 3⅝” and adhered this to the inside of the card using Multipurpose liquid Adhesive. The same stamps and colours were then used to decorate the front of the envelope.

I hope you like it.

Amazingly this card was chosen as a weekly winner of the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge

Pretty feminine card using Stampin' Up! product

A floral Perennial Birthday card

I was playing with the Perennial Birthday stamp set today. This set is paired with the lovely new Perennial Birthday Project Kit but it offers so many more opportunities.

I started by stamping the large, bold ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment onto a 3⅝” by 1” piece of Whisper White cardstock using Momento Tuxedo Black ink.

Soft, subtle colours for a feminine birthday card

www.crafty-rootes.com – Perennial Birthday stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

Taking a 5¼” by 3½” panel of Whisper White cardstock I lightly drew 2 pencil lines across the card front an inch apart. I then randomly stamped the flower and leaf images above and below the pencil lines in Peakaboo Peach, Sweet Sugarplum, Flirty Flamingo & Pear Pizzazz ink. When the ink was dry I rubbed out the pencil lines.

Sweet pastel birthday card

I took an 8” by 1” strip of Pear Pizzazz cardstock and using the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch punched along the length. I adhered the small scalloped edge to the top of the sentiment strip using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I trimmed off the excess and used it to edge the bottom of the sentiment strip and trimming off the excess with scissors.

The sentiment was then added to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a few Iridescent Sequins.

I love the fresh colours of this card. So very pretty.
