A pretty sailing diaroma made using Stampin' Up! products for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Sailing Diorama card for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo blog hop where I have made a sailing diorama using this months colours which  are:

 

And I have added a tiny bit of Daffodil Delight for the light of the lighthouse

 To recreate the Sailing Diorama card, you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Gray Granite card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

I began by using the Layering Diorama dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut the centre from the 5⅜” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White. I put the centre piece to one side.

Using Blending Brushes, I added Gray Granite ink to the bottom of the outer panel and Bermuda Bay ink to the upper part of the outer panel. I added some texture to the bottom using the dotty image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set and Gray Granite ink.

Taking the inner piece I stamped the mountains, from the Mountain Air stamp set in Gray Granite ink and muddied the bottom using the small ‘cloud’ image from the Mountain Air stamp set in 2nd and 3rd generation Gray Granite. The sea and sky were both inked with Bermuda Bay ink, I just went lighter with the sky and added a 1” circle mask for the moon. The sea texture was added using a stamp from the Arctic Bears stamp set in Bermuda Bay. I place the 2 pieces of inked card together and stamped some birds, from the Mountain Air stamp set, randomly in the sky.

The inner piece was then glued to the Gray Granite panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. And the outer piece added on Dimensionals.

Using the Stamparatus, I stamped the lighthouse, from the Sailing Home stamp set in Gray Granite ink and repeated the step to get a slightly darker colour. I used a Blender Pen to add ink and to smooth out the colour a little. I also added a little Daffodil Delight ink as a lighthouse is nothing without a light! The lighthouse was added with glue and Dimensionals overlapping the inset panel.

The smaller boat from the Sailing Home stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and coloured with the Blender Pen and ink. The boat was added onto the inset layer with liquid glue.

Such a sweet card. I hope you like it.

Shabby Chic Meadow

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a card made for a recent team challenge where our theme was ‘Shabby Chic’. This is so out of my comfort zone. I like clean and simple cards, bright colours so this topic was enough to bring me out in a rash……..

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the shabby chic meadow card, you will need:

Blushing Bride card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Crumb Cake – 5½” by 3¾”
Blushing Bride – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Very Vanilla – 5½” by 3¾”
Very Vanilla – 2¼” by 1¾”
Scrap Very Vanilla & Crumb Cake

Using 2nd generation Blushing Bride ink, I stamped the flower randomly all over the Blushing Bride panel. I added the scripty stamp using 2nd and 3rd generation Crumb Cake ink. Whilst I had the ink out I stamped in Crumb Cake ink in opposite corners of the Blushing Bride card front.

I ripped down the right side of the stamped panel – quite enjoyed it once I got started…… I inked around the edge of the stamped panel with a Sponge Dauber and Crumb Cake ink. I ripped down the right side of the Crumb Cake panel, stamped down the side with the speckled stamp before inking around the panel using the Dauber and Crumb Cake ink.

Using a Bone Folder, I broke down the fibres in the upper left corner of both the Crumb Cake panel and the Blushing Bride panel. This allowed me to pull the layers apart and curl the corner. The layers were then adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped some of the gorgeous and sadly retired Blushing Bride Metallic Ribbon around the panel before adding the panel to the Blushing Bride card base.

I die cut a Very Vanilla Label from scarp Very Vanilla card using the Tasteful Labels dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Flowers of Friendship stamp set in Blushing Bride ink. I added the scripty image on the label in 2nd & 3rd generation Crumb Cake ink and inked around the edges in Crumb Cake ink and added it over the ribbon on Dimensionals.

Using the Meadow dies I die cut 2 flowers from scrap Very Vanilla card. I stamped the speckled image over the die cut flowers and adhered them to the card front with liquid glue.

To complete the card, I tucked a strip of Lace Trim under the sentiment label and added a trio of Champagne Rhinestones.
