Posted on September 11, 2021September 8, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink, Stamp. Share blog Hop where we are showcasing a project we have been working on. I am sharing a card made using the Season’s Blessing stamp set and an unusual colour combination.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Blessing card, you will need:

Coastal Cabana card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners
Misty Moonlight card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 4” by 2”
Scrap Basic White card

I began by embossing one of the larger Basic White panels using the gorgeous Timeworn Type Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cit & Emboss Machine. This embossed layer was then adhered to the Misty Moonlight panel and then to the Coastal Cabana card base with liquid glue.

The whole lot were then die cut using the Seasonal Basket Dies.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Artistic flowers themed card on an alcohol ink background made for the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop using the Artistic dies.

I dipped an almost empty Clear Wink of Stella Brush to splatter and dab 90% alcohol onto the Vellum allowing the ink to spread and pool. The panel was then set aside to dry. Doesn’t it look cool?

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Artistic flowers themed card on an alcohol ink background made for the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop using the Artistic dies.

When the Vellum was dry, I trimmed off ¼” from the side and the bottom to decorate the inside panel and the envelope. The Vellum was then added to one the Basic White panels using tiny dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Basic Black card. I covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with a Heat Tool. I flagged the end and added the sentiment to the card front with liquid glue.

A gorgeous Christmas card featuring a cute robin, made using the Happy Holly-Days and stamp set

Christmas Robin

Posted on September 10, 2021August 30, 2021 by Mo Rootes

My Mum loves a Christmas Robin and I made this card for her. Sadly she has dementia and no longer recognises us when we visit but I hope this cheerful robin will bring a smile to her face.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Christmas Robin card, you will need:

Old Olive card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Soft Suede card – 4⅝” by 3⅛”
Fluid 100 watercolor card – 4½” by 3”
Poppy Parade card – 5⅞” by 2⅛”
Very Vanilla card – 5½” by 3¾”
Very Vanilla scrap

We Brits. are so happy to have a Robin stamp, it is such an iconic bird here is the UK and especially so at Christmas. I mounted the lovely robin image onto one of the Stamparatus plates, inked it up with Sahara Sand ink and stamped in onto the small panel of Fluid 100 watercolor card. Because this card has a textured surface, I like to use the Stamparatus in case I need to stamp the image a second time.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty traditional robin themed Christmas card made using the Happy Holly-Days stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

I used the following colours to watercolor the robin – Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Gray Granite, Old Olive & Poppy Parade. I added a little of each colour to an acrylic block and used a Water Painter to pick up the ink and apply it to the bird. Doing it this was means that I can blend inks together to achieve different shades of colour.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty traditional robin themed Christmas card made using the Happy Holly-Days stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

The eye of the bird was outlined using a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Maker and I used a Chalk Marker to add the highlight to the eye.I flagged both ends of the Poppy Parade strip and added it to the Old Olive card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty traditional robin themed Christmas card made using the Happy Holly-Days stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

Using the Stamparatus again, I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set in Poppy Parade ink. I repeated the inking and stamping to get a darker colour. The stamped panel was then added to the Soft Suede layer with the same liquid glue. The topper was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A pretty traditional robin themed Christmas card made using the Happy Holly-Days stamp set by Stampin’ Up

I tied a large bow using the Gold Elegant Trim and added it to the card front using a Dimensional. The holly was stamped in Old Olive ink and coloured using Old Olive and Poppy Parade ink and my Water Painters. The coloured image was then fussy cut using scissors and added over the bow using Mini Dimensionals.

I love this card; I think my water colouring needs a bit of work but the bird is so pretty. I hope you like it

Today I am sharing a jolly good luck chick card made to celebrate a friends’ retirement at the end of August. Like me she wok as a nurse for over 35 years at Royal Papworth Hospital, a specialist heart and lung hospital here in the UK. I am so looking forward to celebrating with her with a visit to our favourite café for a special full English breakfast.

To recreate the good luck chick card, you will need:

Poppy Parade card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Soft Suede card – 5¾” by 3⅞” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White ¼” strip

I started by stamping the 1^st dancing chicken on the right-hand side of the slightly longer Basic White panel. I stamped the same image onto three Post It Notes and cut around the images with Scissors and used these to provide masks.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A quirky, fun and happy retirement card made using the Birthday Chick stamp set by Stampin’ Up!

One of the masks was placed over the stamped chicken and another chicken was stamped to the left. The second mask was then placed over the top of this chicken and another bird stamped to the left.

The last mask was then added to the third chicken and the chicken with a balloon was stamped so that she appeared to be floating out of the gang. The masks were then removed.

I used the following Blends Marker Pens to colour in the chicks and the balloon – Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Cinnamon Cider, Gray Granite, Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight & Bronze

The stamped panel was layered onto the Soft Suede panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was then added to the Poppy Parade card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Welcoming Woods stamp set, was stamped in Poppy Parade ink onto the strip of Basic White and the strip was cut down and flagged with Scissors. I added a trio of Red Rhinestones to finish the card.

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on and I have chosen to share a cute Counting Sheep card made for my daughter and son in laws 1^st wedding anniversary yesterday.

I glued the 2 strips of Real Red card stock to the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the Stamparatus I stamped the sweet little sheep in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. T he stamped panel was then removed and replace with the Silicon Mat. I inked the image again with the same ink and stamped it again on to the mat, carefully added the stamped panel – face down onto the inked Silicon Mat and rubbed firmly with my fingers to encourage to ink to transfer. On lifting up the panel the reverse image was seen. Such a great idea.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – A cute counting sheep congratulations card made for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop and using Sale-a-Bration product

Using a Blending Brush I inked the ground with Pear Pizzazz ink. I added the tufts of grass in Pear Pizzazz to ground the happy sheep.

I stamped the sheep image again, twice, onto Post It Notes – one on the front and the 2^nd on the reverse of the Post It Note. These were cut out using scissors. They were then placed over the 2 stamped images and the sky was added with a Blending Brush, Balmy Blue ink and a torn piece of copy paper.

I stamped 2 cupcakes using Smoky Slate ink inside the cloche. I stamped 3 cupcakes on Post It Notes and cut them out with scissors. I used them to mask the 2 cakes I had stamped and stamped a cupcake between. The three cakes were then masked and 2 more cakes were added on top. The cupcakes were coloured using Flirty Flamingo, Mint Macaron, So Saffron, Balmy Blue & Crumb Cake Blends Markers. I coloured the inside of the cloche with the light Pool Party Blends Marker. The stamped panel was added to the Mint Macaron panel wit liquid glue and the panel was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped on the Basic White strip in Smoky Slate ink and trimmed out and flagged using Scissors. I added a trio of Metallic Pearls to complete the card.
