Summertime – Stamper’s Showcase Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to this months Stamper’s Showcase Blog Hop, my name is Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK.

Our theme this month is Summertime, Summertime. I am so looking forward to the warmer weather and hopefully being able to get out and about a bit more – Covid-19 permitting. I have chosen to use the gorgeous Beautiful Moments stamp set for my cards

To recreate the Summertime card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Best dressed dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Highland Heather 3⅝” by 2⅝”
Whisper White 3½” by 2½”
Whisper White ¼” strip

I adhered the gorgeous Best Dressed dsp to the front of the Thick Whisper White card base using Snail adhesive.

The lovely mother and daughter image from the Beautiful Moments stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the small panel of Whisper White card.

I used pieces of sponge to lightly apply So Saffron ink to the bottom of the panel and Highland Heather to the top of the panel.

The mother and daughter were then stamped onto scrap pieces of dsp from the Best Dressed dsp pack. The dresses were then fussy cut out using sharp scissors. The dresses were then glued on using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I coloured the mother and daughter in with the following Blends Markers – So Saffron combo, Bronze & Ivory.

The stamped panel was adhered with Snail to the Highland Heather layer. I used Dimensionals to add the layer to the card front.

The sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set was stamped on the Whisper White strip with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I trimmed it down with scissors and added it to the card front.

I used the same image, dsp and colours to make an alternative version on a Purple Posy card base.
