The balloons were then stamped in Parakeet Party, Lemon Lolly and Blackberry Bliss ink. I balloon on the right was stamped in Lemon Lolly but I obviously hadn’t cleaned the stamp properly as it looks more apricot in colour!

The Scenic Garden stamp set, by Stampin' Up! used to make a pretty water-coloured card

A Scenic Garden card

Posted on by

The lovely Scenic Garden stamp set was used to make this pretty water-coloured birthday card.

 

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the scenic garden card, you will need:

Soft Suede card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Sweet Sorbet card – 5⅛” by 3⅝”
Fluid 100 card – 5” by 3½”
Very Vanilla card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Soft Suede card

 

I mounted the image stamp onto one of the plates from my Stamparatus, inked it up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it down onto the panel of Fluid 100 paper. Because the water colour card so textured I find I need to stamp two or three times to get a good impression and the Stamparatus makes this so easy to do.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty water-coloured card made using the Scenic Garden stamp set, a Sale-a-Bration offering from Stampin’ Up!

Using a Water Painter and inkpads I coloured in the image. I used Soft Suede ink for the bench, Granny Apple Green for the grass and foliage, Sweet Sorbet for the flowers, Smoky Slate for the ground and finally Balmy Blue for the sky and to pull the whole image together.

The large image from the Simply Succulent stamp set was stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Fresh Freesia card base in Fresh Freesia ink.

I stamped the succulents in the same way then stamped the image again onto masking paper and cut it out using Scissors. The mask was used to cover the stamped image. I then stamped the flower pot in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and the mask removed.

Using the following Blends Pens, I coloured in some of the succulents and the pot – Pool Party, Fresh Freesia, Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive.

The stamped panel was then die cut using the Deckled Rectangle Dies and glued to the Soft Succulent layer with liquid glue.

A strip of Glittered Organdy Ribbon was added across the card front and secured in place with Mini Glue Dots and the panel added over top on Dimensionals.

Perfectly Planted for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Fun-Fold. I have used the Plentiful Plants stamp set and Perfect Plants Dies to make a card inspired by one I saw on Youtube made by Cindy Lee Brumbaugh

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the perfectly planted card, you will need:

Cinnamon Cider card – 5½ by 4¼” – back panel
Bloom Where You’re Planted dsp – 5¼” by 4” – brick pattern
Cinnamon Cider card – 9½” by 4¼” – column folding mechanism – scored on the 9½” side @ ½”, 1¼”, 2”. 2¾”, 6¾”, 7½”, 8¼” & 9”
Bloom Where You’re Planted dsp – 4” by 3¾” – wood planks
Window Sheet – 4” by 3”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 4” – back panel
Scrap Basic White and Granny Apple Green

 

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I glued the brick pattern dsp to the back panel of Cinnamon Cider card. This was then set to one side.

I chose 2 nesting Rectangle Stitched Dies and used the larger of these dies to cut a rectangle from the centre of the large scored panel of Cinnamon Cider card. The dsp was then glued to the centre of this panel using liquid glue. The smaller rectangle die was then used to to die cut the centre of the negative space giving a ‘window’.

Seal + was added to the back of each panel and I adhered the whole piece to the centre of the back panel.

Then came the decoration. I stamped a plant pot from the Plentiful Plants stamp set in Cinnamon Cider ink and foliage in Garden Green and die cut them using the Perfect Plants Dies. These were added to the front of the window using Mini Glue Dots. I also stamped a smaller pot in Night of Navy ink and die cut the spiky plant from scrap Granny Apple Green card. These were also added using Mini Glue Dots.

I stamped the same pot and greenery on the Basic White panel which was then adhered to the back of the card.

The sentiment, from the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set was stamped in Cinnamon Cider ink onto scrap Basic White card, trimmed down with my Trimmer and added to the card front on Mini Glue Dots.

A little boys birthday card made using the Brave Vikings stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Brave Vikings card

Posted on by

I have been having a lot of fun with the Brave Vikings stamp set. It really reminds me of when my son was just starting school as he found it really difficult to sit still and concentrate, so if he had tried hard, he was allowed to go and read about something he loved – and he loved Vikings.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Vikings card, you will need:

So Saffron card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Soft Suede card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card strip ¼”

I stamped the Viking warrior in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card.
