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.
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” Basic White card – ¼” strip
I adhered the piece of Friendly Hello dsp to the bottom of the Thick Basic White card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful watercoloured, sending hugs card made using the Batik Beauty stamp set Stampin’ Up! products
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.
www,crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful watercoloured, sending hugs card made using the Batik Beauty stamp set Stampin’ Up! products
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.
www,crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful watercoloured, sending hugs card made using the Batik Beauty stamp set Stampin’ Up! products
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.
www,crafty-rootes.co.uk – A beautiful watercoloured, sending hugs card made using the Batik Beauty stamp set Stampin’ Up! products

Hello and welcome to the Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop where we are showcasing tools. I have chosen to use the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks to make a pretty embossed and inked Christmas card.
To recreate the Adorning Christmas card, you will need:
Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” Coastal Cabana card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” Basic White card – 6” by 6” which I later cut down to 5½” by 3¾” Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside Basic White card – 3” by 2”
I often forget about our masks but when I remember to use them, I love them. They are so versatile -did you know you can dry emboss using masks? This is only one of the cool techniques you can use masks for.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
I chose the snowflake mask for my project today and if we are talking about tools, as well as the Masks I am using our great Blending Brushes
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
Firstly, I chose the snowflake mask from the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks set. I knew I wanted to emboss my cardstock using the mask but wasn’t quite sure how to do it. After a bit of trial and error I found that the best combination was:
Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine Base plate (1) Clear acrylic plate (3) Silicon Mat Basic White card Mask Gray 3D Embossing Plate (4)
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
I kept the mask in place on top of the card stock, taped the mask down to some Grid Paper to hold it still and began to add colour using Blending Brushes.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
Beginning at the bottom I applied Pool Party ink – I think my Blending Brush wasn’t clean as it looks like Granny Apple Green!
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
Next, I added Coastal Cabana ink, followed by Fresh Freesia ink and finally Highland Heather ink. I removed the mask and cut the panel down to 5½” by 3¾” using my Paper Trimmer.
Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, I glued the embossed panel to the Coastal Cabana card layer.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
I wrapped a length of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape and added the whole panel to the Highland Heather card base on Dimensionals.
The sentiment, from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped on the small piece of Basic White card in Highland Heather ink. I used the Seasonal Labels dies to cut the sentiment out.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
I added the label to the card front, over the ribbon and secured it down with Mini Glue Dots.
To complete the card, I added a bow made from the same ribbon and a trio of Pastel Pearls.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty Adorning Snowflake Christmas card made using the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop
I made a second card in the same way but this time when the mask was removed, I added the left-over colour on the Blending Brushes to the background.

I removed the Post It Note to reveal the ‘moon’ and stamped the gorgeous tree trunks in Early Espresso ink. I added the shadows beneath the trees in 2nd generation Early Espresso ink.

I wrapped Linen thread around the panel three times before adding the panel to the Calypso Coral card base on Dimensionals.

Hello and welcome to the Share it Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on recently. I am sharing a cards made using the gorgeous Summer Shadows dies which are available as a free choice with a £45 order in the Sale-a-Bration Brochure until the end of this month. These cards were inspired by projects made by a fellow demonstrator Tammy White and made to congratulate 2 of my team members on reaching sales targets..
To recreate the Summer Shadows cards, you will need:
Basic White card 5⅞” by 4⅛” – this will eventually be used on the Blackberry Bliss card Scrap of Basic White card – die cut the solid flower from the centre to act as a mask
Polished Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded lower left corner Blackberry Bliss card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – Rounded lower left corner Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”x 2 – one for the inside – Rounded lower left corner Blackberry Bliss card – 3” by ⅞” Blackberry Bliss Scrap for die cutting
Blackberry Bliss card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner Polished Pink card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – Rounded upper right corner Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside – Rounded upper right corner Blackberry Bliss card – 3¼” by 1¼” Blackberry Bliss Scrap for die cutting
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Using the gorgeous Summer Shadows Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I die cut the solid flower randomly across the Basic White panel measuring 5⅞” by 4⅛”.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
The die cut panel was then placed over the top of one of the 5½” by 3¾” Basic White panel and held in place with washi tape. The die cut panel is deliberately larger than the panel below and will be trimmed down later.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
I used Blending Brushes to apply ink to the layers starting with Petal Pink, moving on to Flirty Flamingo, then Polished Pink and finishing with Magenta Madness. This gives a lovely ombre effect.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Carefully peel off the larger inked layer to reveal the inked flowers underneath. Set the larger panel to one side to use on the next card.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Use the small panel of Basic White with the die cut flower as a mask, placing it over each inked flower in turn. Stamp the small flower from Nature’s Harvest stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink, onto the inked flower before moving onto the next. Set to one side to dry.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Die cut enough detailed flowers, from scrap Blackberry Bliss card, to edge each of your inked flowers. To add the detailed flowers to the panel I squeezed some Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto my Silicon Craft Sheet and used a piece of Sponge to add glue to the back of the die cut.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
The decorated panel was then added to the Blackberry Bliss layer with liquid glue and then to the Polished Pink card base on Dimensionals.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Next, take the large inked panel that was set aside and glue it to the remaining Basic White panel. Use a trimmer to cut off the excess card and adhere the whole panel to the Polished Pink panel with liquid glue.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Die cut more of the detailed flowers from scrap Blackberry Bliss card stock and use the same glue and sponge method to glue then to the panel. Add the whole piece to the Blackberry Bliss card base on Dimensionals.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Summer Shadows Dies used to make a card made for the Share It Sunday Blog Hop
Stamp the sentiments in Versamark ink onto the small pieces of Blackberry Bliss card, cover with White Embossing Powder and heat set with a Heat Tool. Add one sentiment to each card front. With liquid glue.

For a finishing touch I added Matte Black Dots to the centres of all the flowers on both cards.

The ‘ground’ was stamped in 2nd generation Soft Suede ink to give the effect of an horizon.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Welcoming Woods stamp set used for a masculine themed card for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop
I punched a circle using the 1” Circle Punch, placed it over the tree trunks to provide a ‘moon’. Using a Blending Brush I added Balmy Blue ink, lightly from the horizon line to the top of the card. I kept the colour light as I wanted a wintery sky effect. The masked circle was then removed.
The ground was coloured with a Blending Brush and Crumb Cake ink and I added the speckles from the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set in 2nd and 3rd generation Soft Suede ink to give the ground some texture. The stamped panel was added to the Balmy Blue layer with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using the stunning Meadow Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I cut out a selection of the flower shapes from scrap Basic Black card.

I squeezed a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto my Silicon Mat and used a piece of Sponge to add the glue all over the back of the die cuts. They were then added to the inked panel. The panel was mounted on the Polished Pink card base with liquid glue.

The sentiment from the Hey Birthday Chick was stamped on a scrap of Basic Black card in Versamark ink. I covered it in White Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. It was trimmed out using Scissors.

I added a strip of Seal + to the back of the sentiment and adhered a strip of Glittered Organdy Ribbon. The sentiment was then added to the card front on Dimensionals. I added a trio of the new 2021-2023 In Color Jewels to complete the card.
I hope you like it.
