To recreate the Rosy Thank You card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner

Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left corner

Using a strip of Post It Note I masked off an section of the Whisper White panel, about ⅔ up from the bottom.

Using Basic Gray ink I stamped the outline image of the rose randomly above and below the Post It strip.

I used Just Jade to ink up the in-fill stamp for the leaves and stems and Magenta Madness for the flower in-fill image. I just love the zingy, vibrancy of the pink. The flower centres were added in Bumblebee ink. The stamped panel was then mounted onto the larger piece of Flowers Fr Every Season dsp using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was added to the Thick Whisper White card base using the same glue. I love the watercolour effect of these images, so pretty.

Using my sharp scissors, I fussy cut the sentiment. I only wanted part of the sentiment for this card and this is a great way to get more from the sentiments you have. The sentiment was added over the ribbon with liquid glue and a bow of the same ribbon added to the side. I added a trio of 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots around the flowers. To complete the card, I fussy cut a couple of tiny dragonflies from the Dandy Garden dsp and added them to the card front with a spot of glue.

3D Poinsettia Wreath- Stampin ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on November 13, 2020November 13, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Thank you for joining me today for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where our theme is ‘3D’. If you have hopped over from the lovely Jill Chapman, you are very welcome. You are currently visiting Mo Rootes in the UK. Please continue to hop through to see all the inspiration the other participants have to share.

I have chosen to share the wreath I have made for my lovely Mum who suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease and is in a care home. As we are currently in lockdown in an effort to stop the rise of Covid-19, we are unable to visit her. I made her this pretty Poinsettia Wreath for the lovely staff who care for her to hang on her door.

To recreate the 3D Poinsettia Wreath, you will need:

Real Red card stock
Flirty Flamingo card stock
Garden Green stock
Soft Sea Foam card stock
Whisper White card stock
Silver Foil card

Taking the stunning Metallic Mesh Ribbon, I started wrapping it loosely around a pretty wicker wreath bought from a local craft store. I love this ribbon; it is so light and fragile looking but adds such a pop of style.
