Heartfelt Blooms is a fab new stamp set which will be available from tomorrow, free in Sale-a-Bration with £45 order from my online store.
When I took the stamp out of the case I was a bit surprised to see that the face of the rubber stamp had very little texture, I wondered if it was defective. I inked up the image using Smoky Slate ink and stamped it onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock and WOW the image had so much definition, I loved it.

I took the gorgeous new Stampin’ Blends in light & dark Pink Pirouette, light & dark Old Olive, light Daffodil Delight, light Rich Razzelberry & light Calypso Coral and coloured in the flowers and leaves giving the image a really soft look.

I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set in Old Olive ink and added the piece to a layer of Daisy Delight dsp using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a piece of Silver Edged Metallic Ribbon to the bottom of the piece then added the whole panel to the front of a Pink Pirouette card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish off I added some Clear Epoxy Shapes to mimic dewdrops – Gorgeous.

Thank you to the lovely ladies who came to this week’s classes which, by popular request were non seasonal themed.
We used the Christmas Quilt stamp set and co-ordinating Quilt Builder dies to make 3 non Christmas themed cards. This is such an amazingly, versatile set and will be fantastic for any quilters or sewers.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Christmas Quilt stamp set and Quilt Builder Dies by Stampin’ Up!
The first card we made was stamped. The frame of the quilted piece was stamped in Fresh Fig ink onto Whisper White cardstock and the infilling pieces were stamped in either Berry Burst ink or Pool Party ink. We stamped the sentiment in Berry Burst ink and punched it out using the Duet Banner Punch and backed it with a Pool Party piece punched with the same punch. We added a strip of Berry Burst cardstock and a piece of ⅛” Soft Sky Ribbon (retired) to the stamped panel. We took a Berry Burst card base and stamped the frame piece in the upper left and lower right corner using Fresh Fig ink before adding the Whisper White stamped panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals. We added a Glitter Enamel Dot to the centre.

The 2nd card was a softer affair. The ladies embossed a Pool Party panel with the Quilt Top embossing folder and my Big Shot and added it to the Pool Party card base after wrapping it with a piece of Berry Burst Ribbon. They then die cut the quilt frame in either Whisper White, Berry Burst, Pool Party or Fresh Fig and shared the pieces with their neighbours. We adhered the frame die cut to a piece of Adhesive sheet and added the coloured pieces just like a jigsaw puzzle. The whole panel was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The final card started with a Thick Whisper White card base. We added a dsp panel to the bottom of the card front and an embossed Whisper White panel and covered the join with Berry Burst ribbon. The adorable sentiment was stamped in Berry Burst ink and die cut using the Layering Oval Framelits and backed with a Fresh Fig scalloped oval die cut using the same set of dies. They then die cut the flower in either Whisper White, Berry Burst, Pool Party or Fresh Fig and again, shared the pieces with their classmates. We added the sentiments and the flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals. White Perfect Accents were added to the centre of the flower.

Today I made a quick thank you card using a new stamp set called Lots of Lavender which will be one of the free choices you can make with a £45 order from the new Spring/Summer and Sale-a-Bration catalogues which launch on the 2nd January 2018.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Lots of Lavender by Stampin’ Up!
I choice a piece of Whisper White cardstock and cut it down to 5¼” by 3⅜”. I stamped the outline bouquet of flowers in Crumb Cake ink roughly in the centre of the cardstock leaving space for a sentiment below. I inked up the blurry flower image in Sweet Sugarplum ink and stamped it over the top of the Crumb Cake flower to give a pretty watercolored look. I used both of the leaf images and a Pear Pizzazz ink pad to add colour to the leaves and did the stems in the same colour.
I coloured the bow using the bow stamp and Daffodil Delight ink. The sentiment is from my favourite, Thankful Thoughts stamp set and is stamped in Sweet Sugarplum ink. I rounded the upper left corner using a corner rounder.
www.crafty-rootes.com – Lots of Lavender by Stampin’ Up!
I mounted the Whisper White layer onto a panel of Soft Suede cardstock with a rounded top left corner. I chose a Crumb Cake card base and added a strip of Sweet Sugarplum cardstock 5⅞” by 1¾” down the centre to add a touch of colour and interest before adding the stamped piece on top using Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish the card off I added 3 of the Glitter Epoxy Shapes which will be available in the new catalogue in January 2018

I love the card but when I make it again I think I will colour the bow in purple or blue. What do you think?

Today I am sharing a sneak peek using the Flying Home stamp set from the new Spring Summer Catalogue which launches in January 2018. As demonstrators we are lucky enough to see new product from upcoming catalogues and also pre order from the new catalogue a month or more before they launch to the public. A fabulous perk of being a demo. Even better those of us who go to OnStage events are given some of the new product for free……. love it……. this is a set I was given.

I stamped the adorable trio of bird houses using Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock 5” by 3⅜” and set about colouring the image using the fantastic new Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. I used the following colours: Light & Dark Smoky Slate, Light & Dark Pool Party, Light & Dark Daffodil Delight, Light Cherry Cobbler, Light Old Olive. Light & Dark Calypso Coral, Light & Dark Rich Razzleberry, Light Bermuda Bay, Light & Dark Pink Pirouette, Light Crumb Cake, Light Night of Navy, Ivory. I know colouring in is not for everyone but I love it.

I added the sentiment from the Thankful Thoughts stamp set using Momento Tuxedo Black ink. A small strip of Washi Tape from the Basics 3 pack on opposite corners finished off the stamped panel.

I adhered an offset panel of Basic Gray cardstock onto a Bermuda Bay card base using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The Very Vanilla cardstock layer was added on top with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Such a simple, sweet card. I hope you like it.

Painted Harvest Class – Thank you to all the lovely ladies who came to classes this week, we had a ball using the Painted Harvest stamp set to make 3 beautiful projects
www.carfty-rootes.com – Painted Harvest by Stampin’ Up!
The first card was very simple and started with us randomly stamping the ‘solid flower image’ in Crushed Curry ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock. We added the more ‘detailed flower’ image over the top of the first image in Cajun Craze ink, love how the 2 step stamping brings the flower to life.
We then stamped the sentiment from the Banners for You stamp set in Chocolate Chip ink and at this point we decided whether we were doing a landscape or portrait version of the card. We then stamped the ‘flower centre’ using Chocolate Chip ink and filled in the white spaces using the ‘fern like leaf image’ and Pear Pizzazz ink.
We wrapped a piece of ⅛” Copper Trim around the stamped piece and tied it in a bow………..always a challenge….. We added a thin strip of Chocolate Chip cardstock along one edge with Tombow Liquid Adhesive and added the whole panel using the same glue to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base. To finish off we stamped the flower again on the inside of the card and the front of the envelope.
www.carfty-rootes.com – Painted Harvest by Stampin’ Up!
With the 2nd card we started by embossing a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Layered Leaves Dynamic Textured Impressions Folder and the Big Shot. We added the embossed panel to a slightly larger piece of Crushed Curry cardstock using Tombow Liquid Adhesive and used the same glue to adhere the panel to a Cajun Craze card base.
We stamped the flower in exactly the same way as for the first card onto a scrap of Whisper White and die cut it using a circle die from the Stitched Shapes framelits. We also die cut a slightly larger scalloped circle from Cajun Craze cardstock using one of the Layering Circle dies. We then glued the 2 circles together with Tombow.
We stamped one of the leaf images in Always Artichoke ink onto Pear Pizzazz cardstock and punched them out using the Leaf Punch. These were added to the back of the Cajun Craze scalloped circle with Tombow.
We stamped the banner and the sentiment from the ThoughtfulBanners stamp set using Chocolate Chip ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punched the banner out using the Duet Banner punch. This was added to the front of the stamped piece using Tombow. We added the whole piece to the embossed panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Again to finish we stamped the flower onto the envelope and onto a layer of Whisper White cardstock which we added to the inside of the card using Tombow.
www.carfty-rootes.com – Painted Harvest by Stampin’ Up!
The 3rd card was a CHRISTMAS card……..I know, couldn’t resist sneaking one in. I got the idea for this card from Pinterest but I haven’t been able to identify who originally came up with the idea but I have put my own spin on it.
We stamped the ‘solid flower image’ randomly in Pear Pizzazz ink onto Pear Pizzazz cardstock and added the panel to a Thick Whisper White card base. We then stamped the solid flower onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock using Pear Pizzazz ink. We stamped the detailed layer in Always Artichoke ink and added the ‘berries’ in Cajun Craze ink. We stamped the sentiment from the Star of Light stamp set in Cajun Craze ink and then flagged the end of the Whisper White piece using scissors. We added some Gold Glimmer paper behind and sneakily we used a short piece, cut into two and stuck on at the top and the bottom with Tear & Tape….. no- one will ever know……..
We added the whole panel to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a bow made from the ⅛” Copper Trim with a Mini Glue Dot before decorating the inside of the card and the envelope.
I hope you like the projects as much as the ladies did.
