The Friendly Gnome stamp set and the Tree Rings Dies and Hybrid Embossing Folder by Stampin' Up! used to make a pretty gnome themed card

Friendly Gnome card

Posted on by

I have been playing with the new Friendly Gnomes stamp set, combining it with the Tree Rings Hybrid Dies and Embossing Folder to make a sweet card.

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the friendly gnome card, you will need:

Thick Very Vanilla card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Soft Suede card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Dandy Designs dsp – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Scrap Very Vanilla, Old Olive & Soft Suede

 

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the Dandy Designs dsp to the Soft Suede panel and then to the Thick Very Vanilla card base.

I clipped the Tree Rings Die into the Tree Rings Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with a 5⅞” by 4⅛” panel of Soft Suede card. Love that this die cuts and embosses at the same time.

Using the same embossing folder I embossed some scrap Very Vanilla card then die cut the inner piece for the tree ring I wanted. I used a Blending Brush to add some Crumb Cake ink to the Very Vanilla piece and glued it to the tree ring being careful to line up the notches. This was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The gnome was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto scrap Very Vanilla card, die cut using the Gnome Dies before colouring it in using the following Blends Pens – Pale Papaya, So Saffron, Balmy Blue, Soft Sea Foam and SU 1000 from the Naturals Collection. The gnome was then added to the card front.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the ringed with nature blog hop, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Very Vanilla card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Crumb Cake card – 5” by 3 ¼”
Very Vanilla card – 6” by 4”
Very Vanilla card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾”
Scrap Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Crumb Cake & Soft Suede

 

Using the tree rings image, I stamped around the Crumb Cake card front using Crumb Cake ink.

I rubbed Crumb Cake ink onto the Tree Rings Hybrid Embossing Folder, carefully added the largest of the Tree Rings Dies, easing it into place. The largest piece of Very Vanilla card was placed inside and the folder closed. I then ran it through the Cut & Emboss Machine. Love these hybrid embossing folders where you can cut and emboss all at the same time. I set the inked, embossed and die cut tree rings to one side.

Taking the smaller panel of Crumb Cake, I ran it through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the two odd starry shaped dies, I repeated this a couple of times more. This gives a pretty peep through effect. I added the Crumb Cake panel to the smaller Very Vanilla panel and added to the Crumb Cake card base.

I die cut, using the Tree Rings Dies, the leafy sprigs and acorn pieces from scrap Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Old Olive card. The flowers were stamped in So Saffron ink onto Very Vanilla card and die cut them with the Teacup Dies.

 

The sentiment, from the Ringed With Nature stamp set, was stamped in Versamark ink onto scarp Soft Suede card, covered it with Gold Embossing Powder and set it with my Heat Tool. I trimmed the sentiment down using Scissors.

A Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine bow was added with a Mini Glue Dot and added gold pearls to the flower centres using the Red & Green Pearls.

Pretty card, I hope you like it.

Thank you card made using the Rooted in Nature stamp set and Nature's Roots dies by Stampin' Up!

Rooted in Nature with Tree Rings

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a card I made using the lovely new Rooted In Nature stamp set and the co-ordinating Nature’s Roots dies.

I inked up the large Tree Rings background stamp with Soft Suede ink, I always find in easier with the larger stamps to lay them face up on my stamping surface before inking them up and laying the cardstock on top.  I used Crumb Cake cardstock 4⅜” by 3″ for this card and used a scrap piece of printer paper to lay over the top and rubbed to make sure the ink transfer evenly.  I think the result looks great and adds lovely texture to the card. I mounted this panel onto a layer of Soft Suede cardstock 4½” by 3⅛”.

Taking the ‘pine tree’ stamp I placed it on a C block and inked up the tree canopy using my Granny Apple Green ink pad. I inked the trunk of the tree using a Soft Suede Marker Pen and using a Shaded Spruce Marker Pen I coloured in small areas of the tree canopy. I huffed on the stamp to re-moisten the ink and stamped it down onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 3½” by 2½” and die cut it out using the Nature’s Roots Framelit Dies and my Big Shot.

I die cut a Petal Pink circle using the Layering Circle Dies. I added this to the bottom of the stamped panel with Tombow Liquid Adhesive and trimmed off the excess. I added the off cut piece from the Petal Pink circle to the back of the stamped panel to add a little more interest.

I added this whole panel to the front of a Granny Apple Green card base (love this colour) using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The tree was then added to the Petal Pink semi-circle on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Abstract Impressions stamp set in Soft Suede ink at the bottom of the card front. I am really happy with the way this card looks. Hope you like it!
