Wellington Boots for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Today for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop we are showcasing a project we have been working on. I have chosen to share a sweet card made for our team challenge using the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set. The theme of the challenge was ‘Weather’ and I felt that these cute Wellington Boots represented a rainy day perfectly.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the Wellington Boots card, you will need:

Basic Gray card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 4⅛” by 2¼”
Pool Party card – 4⅛” by ⅜” x 2
Basic White card – 3½” by ⅜”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

 

I randomly stamped the boots in Basic Gray ink onto the Basic Gray card front.

Pot of Daisies for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we have a sketch challenge and I have chosen to make a pot of daisies card using the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the pot of daisies card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Friendly Hello dsp – 5⅞” by 2”
Mossy Meadow card – 5⅞” by ⅜”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 1¾”
Mossy Meadow card – 3¼” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 2¾” by 2¾”

Next, I added Pale Papaya ink to the small panel of Basic White using a Blending Brush. I had tried a panel of Pale Papaya but the colour was too bright and I wanted something more muted. However, I felt the inked panel was to wishy-washy so I ended up stamping the group of daisies across the inked panel in 2nd generation Pale Papaya ink. I liked this as it gave the subtle texture I was looking for. The panel was then adhered above the dsp panel leaving about ¼” between the two pieces. The strip of Mossy Meadow card was adhered down to cover the edges of both the dsp and the inked panel.

The flowerpot from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set was stamped on the square of Basic White card in Mossy Meadow ink and the group of daisies added in Basic Gray ink.  I used the Pale Papaya Blends Markers to colour in the daisies and So Saffron for the flower centres.

The coloured image was then die cut using the Layering Circle Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and layered onto a larger scalloped circle cut in the same way with the same dies from the square of Mossy Meadow card. The circle was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Scraps of alcohol inked vellum used to make a pretty double butterfly themed card using the Brilliant Wings dies

Double Butterfly card

Today I have made a pretty double butterfly card made using alcohol inked vellum left over from my class projects last month (see the post on the 17th September 2021).

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the double butterfly card, you will need:

Magenta Madness card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Daffodil Delight card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper right corner – for the inside
Vellum – big enough to die cut your butterflies

I used Magenta Madness, Dark Pumpkin Pie and Dark Daffodil Delight Blends Alcohol Markers to scribble blocks of colour all over the Vellum taking care not to overlap the colours which would contaminate the lighter colour nibs.

Using a pipette filled with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and smacked it against a Bone Folder to spray small dots of alcohol all over the Vellum. This allows the ink to start spreading. The Vellum piece was then set aside to dry.

Taking the dry vellum panel and the Brilliant Wings Dies I die cut 2 butterflies. Vellum can be tricky to die cut with a detailed die and I find placing the die, cutting side up gives me the best cut. I used the Take Your Pick Die Brush to get out the fiddly pieces.

Using the Scalloped Contour Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut the largest scalloped rectangle from the Calypso Coral card. I then embossed the scalloped rectangle using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder.
I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the die cut to the Petal Pink card base.
