Petal Promenade dsp for a sweet get well card

Petal Promenade get well card

Today I have made a sweet get well card using the adorable Petal Promenade designer series paper. This paper is stunning and needs very little embellishment to make a stunning card.

Petal Promenade card

I began by cutting a piece of the Petal Promenade dsp measuring 5⅛” by 2⅞” and layered it onto a panel of Calypso Coral cardstock. I added a little tear and tape adhesive to the back left side of the panel and added some of the lovely soft Lace Trim.

I took a Gray Granite card base and added a ½” strip of Very Vanilla cardstock to the front and added the panel over the top with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock and punched it out using the Everyday Label Punch. I inserted the punched sentiment into the punch again and punched again to make it smaller. I did the same with a scrap of Mossy Meadow cardstock and layered it on the back of the punched sentiment. This was added to the card front.

I don’t think the card needs anything else, I hope you agree.

Soft thank you card using the Beautiful Promenade stamp set and Beautiful Layers dies by Stampin' Up

Beautiful Promenade

Earlier this week we had my husband’s cousin and her partner visiting from Canada and they were fascinated with my Big Shot……… who isn’t!!! I cut a few pieces out using the Beautiful Promenade stamp set and Beautiful Layers framelit dies to demonstrate how it worked and decided to use them to make a card today. So this card is for you Helen and T.J.

Making the Beautiful Promenade card

I began by placing the Whisper White die cut doily onto a 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Lifting the doily to one side I stamped the striped flower image twice using 2nd generation Coastal Cabana ink so that the stamped flowers would be partially covered by the doily. 2nd generation means inking up your stamp then stamping it onto scrap paper – I use Grid Paper – then stamping again without re-inking onto your project which gives you a lighter shade of the original colour.

At this point I decided that the background was too stark so ran the Soft Sea Foam panel through my Big Shot using the Tufted embossing folder.

I took the flower I had stamped in Bermuda Bay ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock then die cut using my Big Shot and the Beautiful Layers dies. I stamped the striped flower overtop of the die cut image. I then stamped 3 lots of leaves in Gray Granite ink and die cut them out. I stamped the sentiment from the Eastern Beauty stamp set in Gray Granite ink into the centre of the doily and started putting the card together.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Beautiful Promenade stamp set by Stampin’ Up

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the embossed Soft Sea Foam layer to a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5½“ by 3¾” and added this to the Bermuda Bay card base. I added a strip of Gray Granite cardstock 4⅛” by ⅜” to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and added the doily on top using tiny pieces of Stampin’ Dimensionals. The flower was then added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive  and the leaves tucked in behind. To finish the card off I added a few Glitter Enamel Dots.

Such a soft, pretty card. I hope you like it.

Gorgeous trio of cards using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Blended Seasons Classes

Today I am sharing the cards we made during this month’s classes. We used the gorgeous Blended Seasons stamp set and the co-ordinating Stitched Seasons dies. This set is only available until the 31st August or while stocks last so if you like it don’t wait to buy it. I decided to use this set to do a masterclass in colouring using Blends, Watercolor Pencils with Blender Pens and ink pads with Aquapainters.

Gorgeous trio of cards using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

Card 1 – Blossoms

The first card was very straight forward but to ensure everyone got a crisp stamped image we mounted the stamp onto the Stampartus. We stamped onto a panel of Whisper White measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” using Momento Tuxedo Black ink. The ladies then chose a duo of Blends Pens to colour the flowers and a second set to colour the leaves. The sample used the Cherry Coober duo for 2 flowers and the Poppy Parade duo for the 3rd flower. I used the Granny Apple Green duo for the leaves.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

Using the Detailed Trio Punch we rounded the upper left corner of the stamped panel and a panel of Basic Gray measuring 5½” by 3¾” and adhered the two together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. We stamped the sentiment in Momento Tuxedo Black ink. Using the Blends pens we coloured some pearls to co-ordinate with the coloured image and added them to the panel before adhering it to a Thick Whisper White card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Card 2 – Christmas!!!!!

In my opinion it is never too early to make Christmas cards and thankfully my ladies were prepared to indulge me! We began by taking a piece of Shimmery White cardstock and die cutting the middle stitched shape from the gorgeous Stitched Seasons dies. These are lovely dies used on their own but absolutely stunning when layered together.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We stamped the sentiment and the holly boughs in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto the die cut Shimmery White piece and coloured them in using the lovely Watercolor Pencils from the original set and the set currently available until August 31st. We then blended the colour with Blender Pens.

Taking a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock 5¼” by 3½” we stamped the sweet leaf image in the left upper and right lower corners using Garden Green ink and adhered the label to a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. We added a strip of Cherry Cobbler 5⅞” by ⅜” across the centre and added the coloured panel on top using Stampin’ Dimensionals. We added a scattering of coloured Basic Pearls to the panel.

Card 3 – Autumnal Easel

We started making this card by die cutting the lovely stitched frames using the Big shot. The largest shape was cut from Cherry Cobbler cardstock and the medium size from Shimmery White cardstock. We also die cut the sweet leaf shape from the Stitched Seasons dies from Copper Foil Paper.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We stamped the gorgeous leaf image in Versamark ink onto the Shimmery White die cut piece and covered it with Copper Embossing powder which we heat set with the Heat Tool……….and yes most of us remembered to use the Embossing Buddy.

Gorgeous Autumnal Easel card using Blended Seasons Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Blended Seasons stamp set used for August classes

We used Cherry Cobbler ink pad, Pumpkin Pie ink pad, Crushed Curry ink pad and Garden Green ink pad and Aquapainters to colour in the image. Love the effect watercoloring gives and the fact that you can layer up the colour to get a rich, intense colour. WE stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink before adhering the stamped layer to the Cherry Cobbler layer.

We added the panel to a card base of Thick Whisper White 11¾” by 4⅛”, scored at 2 15/16ths and 5⅞”. You need to make sure you only add glue to the bottom half of the panel or the card fold won’t work properly. The copper leaf is then added to the inside of the card on Dimensionals to act as a stopper. We added coloured Basic Pearls to finish the card.

I kept the colouring fairly simple using the Granny Apple Green light and dark Blends pens for the leaves and the light and dark Flirty Flamingo Blends for the flowers with a little light Calypso Coral for the flower centres. I absolutely love the vibrancy of the Stampin’ Blends. I rounded the upper left corner of the panel using the Detailed Trio Punch.

I rounded the same rounded corner of a 5⅝” by 4” panel of Granny Apple Green cardstock and added it to the a Thick Whisper White card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. To add some extra interest I adhered a ¼” strip of Flirty Flamingo cardstock across the green panel before adding the stamped layer on top using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Pop of Petals by Stampin' Up! for a sweet card

Pop of Petals makes for a very sweet card

Today I have been using the lovely new Pop of Petals stamp set and co-ordinating Four-Petal Punch to make a sweet card.

Pop of Petals

I began by taking a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝”. Using a ruler and pencil I drew 2 parallel lines an inch apart towards the top of the panel.

Pop of Petals by Stampin' Up! for a sweet card

www.crafty-rootes.com – Pop of Petals by Stampin’ Up!

Starting with the largest image I then stamped and flowers and leaves overlapping the pencil lines. I used Night of Navy ink for the largest flowers then Coastal Cabana, Grapefruit Grove and So Saffron ink for the smaller flowers. The smaller flowers come as one stamp which I cut apart using sharp Paper Snips, this gives much more flexibility and they fit together again really easily if you want to stamp them together. The leaves were stamped in Soft Sea Foam ink.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Pop of Petals by Stampin’ Up!

After stamping I rubbed out the pencil lines before adding the stamped panel to a layer of Night of Navy cardstock measuring 5½” by 3⅞”. This was then added to a Coastal Cabana card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. On a piece of Whisper White I stamped the sentiment from the Hanging  Garden stamp set in Night of Navy ink and added it on Stampin’ Dimensionals over the place where the pencil lines had been.

On a scrap of Whisper White cardstock I stamped one of the large flowers and punched it out using the Four-Petal Flower punch and added it on a Stampin’ Dimensional to the left of the sentiment panel. To complete the card I added some Glitter Enamel Dots using my Paper Piercer.

Love What You Do for July Classes

Today I am sharing the projects we made in this month’s classes using the Love What You Do stamp set and Share What You Love designer series paper (dsp).

July Classes featuring the Love What You Do stamp set and Share What You Love dsp by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Love What You Do and Share What You Love by Stampin’ Up!

Card 1 – scatter of flowers

We started with a layer of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5¼” by 3½” and stamped the large watercolor image in 2nd generation Pool Party ink. Second generation is when you ink up a stamp, stamp onto scrap paper then stamp the 2nd generation, or 3rd or 4th generation, onto your project.

I inked up the small flower images in Rich Razzelberry ink and stamped them from the bottom left to the top right of the Pool Party stamped image. Taking a Blender Pen and the Rich Razzelberry ink pad I coloured in the small flowers.

The sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set was stamped in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 2” by ⅜” and trimmed a banner end using my Paper Snips. I added the sentiment to slightly larger piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock and tucked a cut down piece of Pearlized Doily  behind using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This was added to the stamped panel on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The whole panel was then added to a piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock 5½” by 3” and adhered this panel to a Thick Whisper White card base on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a scrap of Rich Razzelberry and Pool Party cardstock to the lop left hand corner of the stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive after banner ending with paper Snips. Finally I added a small bow made with White and Silver Baker’s Twine.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Love What You Do and Share What You Love by Stampin’ Up!

Card 2 – Embossed background

We took a 5” by 3⅝” panel of Pool Party cardstock and ran it through the Big Shot with the Lovely Floral Embossing folder. This panel was then adhered to the right hand side of the Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking the 3½” by 2¾” panel of Whisper White cardstock we stamped the Watercolor image in 2nd generation pool Party ink in the centre. We inked up the largest flower and stamped it in Rich Razzelberry ink and added the 2 leaves in Pool Party ink. This panel was then added to a layer of Rich Razzelberry cardstock 3⅝” by 2⅞” with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking a small piece of the Share What You Love dsp we flagged one end and adhered it to the embossed Pool Party layer. The stamped panel was then added over the top on Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment from the hand Delivered stamp set was stamped onto a scrap of Whisper White 2½” by ⅜” and added to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and a Stampin’ Dimensional.

Card 3 – Thank You card

We again stamped the watercolor image in 2nd generation Pool party ink onto a panel of Whisper White 4” by 2¾” and stamped the flower image overtop in Rich Razzelberry ink. We also stamped the flowers in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. After colouring the flowers in using the Rich Razzelberry ink pad and Blender Pens we cut them out using paper snips and adhered them to the stamped panel. We added the stamped panel to a piece of Rich Razzelberry cardstock4 ¼” by 2” and set it to one side.

We added a piece of Share What You Love dsp to the front of a Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesivebefore adding the stamped panel overtop on Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock measuring 2” by 1” and added this to the card front using Multipurpose liquid Adhesive and a Stampin’ Dimensional.

The ladies really enjoyed making these cards. I hope you like them.

Stamp ‘N Hop – Garden Impressions

Stamp 'N Hop blog hop by Mo Rootes

Welcome to this month’s Stamp ‘N Hop blog hop, if you have hopped over from Jenn Charles I am sure you love her gorgeous projects. My name is Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK and you are very welcome to my blog where the theme of this month’s hop is our favourite new Designer Series Paper (dsp). I love dsp but have struggled in the past to cut into it……..it is so pretty…….what’s a girl to do!

However, since I began offering my ladies a regular Stamp-a-Stack option with projects based around a pack of dsp, I have had to start cutting into my lovely stash and I am so happy I did. I love the dimension these gorgeous papers add to the cards I design and my ladies also love them.

For today’s projects I have chosen to use the vibrant and so summery Garden Impressions dsp . I love the bright and cheerful floral patterns in this pack.

The card

www.crafty-rootes.com - Stamp 'N Hop using the Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘N Hop Garden Impressions

For my card today I chose one of my favourite papers and cut a panel of dsp measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝”. I adhered it to a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾” using Multipurpose adhesive. This panel was then added to the front of a So saffron card base using the same adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘N Hop Garden Impressions

Taking a strip of So Saffron cardstock 5⅞” by ¼”and a Night of Navy ink pad and stamped the sentiment, chosen from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set all the way across. This strip was then adhered to the card front using the Multipurpose liquid adhesive.

I die cut a gorgeous dragonfly from Whisper White cardstock using my Big shot and the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits. Using my Bone Folder I curled the wings to give some dimension to the card and adhered it to the card front using 3 Mini Glue Dots on the body. To give a little sparkle I added 2 gold Faceted Dots to the dragonfly body.

The Envelope Punch Board Treat Box

I then made a small box to match using my Envelope Punch Board. I started with a 6” by 6” piece of dsp and punched and scored it at 3½” and 3¼” then rotated the dsp 90⁰ and lined up the pointer with the score lines punching and scoring all the way around.

www.crafty-rootes.com - Stamp 'N Hop using the Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.com – Stamp ‘N Hop Garden Impressions

I cut up each of the 4 small tabs using my sharp Paper Snips, taking a small wedge from each side to ensure that the box would close neatly. After folding and burnishing all the score lines with my Bone Folder I applied a glue dot to 2 of the tabs and folded them in to close the sides and back of the box. I will close the top flap with a glue dot when I have added my gift.

I die cut another dragonfly from Whisper White cardstock using the Detailed dragonfly Thinlit dies and added it to the front of the box using Mini Glue Dots. I stamped the same sentiment onto a small strip of So saffron cardstock in Night of Navy ink and tucked it under the dragonfly body after flagging one end. I added 2 Facet Dots to the dragonfly body and the project was finished.

Love What You Do by Stampin' Up!

Love What You Do

Today I used the Love What You Do stamp set to make a sweet and simple thank you card.

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 4” by 2¾” and stamped 3 of the flower images in Momento Tuxedo Black ink. I deliberately tried to space them as evenly as possible across the panel. Using my Light & Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Pens I coloured in the flowers. I rounded the upper left and lower right corners of the panel with the Detailed Trio Punch.

Love What You Do by Stampin' Up!

I rounded the same corners of a piece of Basic Black cardstock measuring 4¼” by 3” and adhered the stamped panel to this panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

www.crafty-rootes.com – Love What You Do by Stampin’ Up! for a thank you card

I chose to use a Daffodil Delight card base and stamped some of the tiny flowers in the upper left and lower right corner in Daffodil Delight ink to give a subtle tone on tone effect. The stamped panel was added on Stampin’ Dimensionals to the centre of the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the new Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed it out using my Paper Trimmer. I added the banner end with scissors (Paper Snips). I added a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” to the inside of the card and stamped and coloured the same flower before sticking it down.

I love this cheerful sunny card. I hope you like it.

The gorgeous Share What You Love dsp meets a detailed Dragonfly

A Detailed Dragonfly

Today I have been playing with the gorgeous Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits and the stunning Share What You Love Designer Series Paper (dsp).

The gorgeous Share What You Love dsp meets a detailed Dragonfly

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Share What You Love dsp meets a detailed Dragonfly using Stampin’ Up! product

I began by choosing one of the beautiful patterns from this dsp stack and after a lot of deliberation I went with one of the bolder patterns and cut a piece 5⅜” by 3⅝” using my Paper Trimmer.  I added the dsp to a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5½” by 3¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive before adding the whole panel to a Rich Razzleberry card base using the same glue. I really feel that the Whisper White layer makes the coloured dsp ‘pop’.

I began with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4⅛” by 3⅛”, I corner rounded the upper right corner of the panel using the Detailed Trio Punch which will be available in my online store from the 1st June 2018. I then stamped the delicate floral spray in Crumb Cake ink.

I coloured in the image using the following Stampin’ Blends; Light Cherry Cobbler, Light & Dark Calypso Coral and Light Old Olive. I love the depth of colour the Blends give to a project. I backed the stamped panel onto a 4¼” by 3¼” layer of Pear Pizzazz cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive, having rounded the upper right hand corner.

I added a strip of Fast Fuse adhesive to the back of the panel on the left  and added some Calypso Coral Shimmer Ribbon, ruching it up and sticking it down as I went.

I cut a 4” by 4” piece of Tutti-Frutti dsp using my Stampin’ Trimmer and cut it at a diagonal. I added a thin strip of Crumb Cake cardstock to the edge and adhered the piece to the front of a Whisper White card base using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The stamped panel was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Fabulous Flamingo stamp set in Pear Pizzazz ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and flagged the end. I added a small strip of dsp to the bottom of the sentiment and added it to the card front with Tombow. To complete the card I added some Subtles Enamel Dots. Such a sweet card.
