Leaping Deer Christmas Card

Posted on September 14, 2021September 9, 2021 by Mo Rootes

This is a sweet leaping deer themed Christmas card made using the Peaceful Deer stamp set, Deer Builder Punch and the Peaceful Prints dsp.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the leaping deer card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Peaceful Prints dsp – 5¼” by 3⅝”
Basic Black card – 4¾” by 3”
Peaceful Prints dsp – 4⅝” by 2⅞”
Basic White card – 3” by 3”
Crumb Cake strip – ½”
Basic White strip – ⅜”
Scrap Crumb Cake

I began by choosing 2 patterns from the gorgeous Peaceful Prints dsp, can’t believe this is one of the free Sale-a-Bration choices you can opt for with a £45 order. The larger panel was glued to the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using a scalloped circle from the layering Circle Dies and my Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut a scalloped circle from the middle of the Basic Black layer. I love doing this, it makes the most of my card stock and no-one (but you) will ever know!

The second panel of dsp was added, using the same liquid glue to the Basic Black layer (with the whole in the middle) and was added to the card front with the same glue.

I die cut a slightly smaller circle from the square of Basic White card using the same set of dies and ran it through the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine inside the Wintry 3D Duo Embossing Folder. Gives a subtle level of texture to the piece. The embossed circle was added to the scalloped Basic Black circle and then placed on the card front on Dimensionals.

The deer image was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto a scrap of Crumb Cake card and punched out using the Deer Builder Punch. I added it to the embossed circle with liquid glue. I decorated the circle with a trio of Red Rhinestones.

The sentiment was stamped in Real Red ink onto the strip of Basic White card. This was trimmed down before being mounted onto the Crumb Cake strip and added with liquid glue to the card front.

Sweet card, I hope you agree.

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.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the team swap card, you will need:

Balmy Blue cad base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Mossy Meadow card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Basic White card – ⅜” strip

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.

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.

The ‘snow’ on the ground was coloured using a very light application of Pool Party ink using a Blending Brush.

The clouds were added in Balmy Blue ink to give some texture to the sky. The sweet little fox was added in Cinnamon Cider ink. The inked panel was then added to the Mossy Meadow layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then added to the Balmy Blue card front on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment – from the Peaceful Deer stamp set – in Mossy Meadow ink onto the Basic White strip, trimmed it down with Scissors and added it to the card front. To finish I added Clear Wink of Stella to the roof of the cabin and the snow on the ground, so pretty.
