A snowy mountain scene stamped using the Mountain Air stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Snowy Mountain for the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop

Posted on October 10, 2020October 7, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop. My name is Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK and I am thrilled to be joining the super talented team on this blog hop. Our theme today is ‘Showcasing a project we have been working on’. I have chosen to share a piece of home décor with you; a picture of a snowy mountain scene. I hope you like it.

To recreate the Snowy Mountain picture you will need:

Whisper White card – 8” by 6”
Misty Moonlight card – 8* by 6”
Picture frame for a 7” by 5” photograph

If you have been following my blog you will know that the Mountain Air stamp set is a real favourite of mine and today I have combined it with the In The Pines Stamp set and the sweet cabin from the Snow Front stamp set to create this wintery scene.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mountain Air stamp set used to make pretty picture featuring a snowy mountain scene

I began with the piece of Whisper White card which I lined up on my Grid Paper. With a T Square Ruler and a pencil I marked out ½” on all 4 sides to form a border. This border will be covered by the mount.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mountain Air stamp set used to make pretty picture featuring a snowy mountain scene

I inked up the detailed mountain image from the Mountain Air stamp set with Seaside Spray ink and stamped the image across the panel. I reversed the stamp, inked up the back with the same colour, stamped off on my Grid Paper and stamped the 2^nd generation, offset, over the mountains.

The row of trees were stamped below the mountains in Shaded Spruce ink. I punched a 1” circle from a Post It note and applied it over the mountains. Using a blending brush – you could also use a sponge or a sponge dauber instead – and circular movements I appled Balmy Blue ink across the top of the panel to give the effect of a sky. The circle mask was then removed.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mountain Air stamp set used to make pretty picture featuring a snowy mountain scene

I roughly tore a piece to copy paper to give a wavy edge. Using the blending brush and Pool Party ink I moved around the torn copy paper to give the effect of snow banks.

Placing the copy paper back in position I stamped the sweet cabin from the Snow Front stamp set in Basic Gray ink. I added the ‘path’ image in 2^nd generation Basic Gray ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mountain Air stamp set used to make pretty picture featuring a snowy mountain scene

I added the row of trees from the In the Pines stamp set in the same way using Early Espresso ink. I added the in-fill stamp in Shaded Spruce ink. The large tree on the left was stamped in Early Espresso and Shaded Spruce.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mountain Air stamp set used to make pretty picture featuring a snowy mountain scene

Using my Paper Trimmer I cut out the middle of the Misty Moonlight panel leaving a 3/4£” border all the way around. This will be the mount for the picture.

I used a simple white photo frame to show off this simple picture.

Thank you for joining me today for this month’s Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Favourite DSP’. I have chosen to the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper (dsp) which is hands down, my favourite dsp this year. I love the colour palatte and the versatility of this paper.

To recreate the Snowy Scene card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 2”
Trimming the Town dsp – 5⅜” by 3”

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Pretty Christmas card made using the Trimming the Town dsp

Using the Home Together dies and my Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut the snow bank and tree line from the 2 panels of Whisper White card.

I adhered the piece of dsp to the Thick Whisper White card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The tree line was added using the same glue.

Using the same dies I cut out the house and a tree from the sheet of dsp – I love that the dies allow us do this. The house and tree were added to the card front.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Pretty Christmas card made using the Trimming the Town dsp

The snow bank layer was added on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was trimmed out from one of the other sheets of dp and glued to the card front. A single star from the All the Trimmings Embellishment pack to complete the card.

To recreate the single house card you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Trimming the Town dsp – 5⅞” by 2”
Old Olive – 4” b 3”
Whisper White – 4” by 3”

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Pretty Christmas card made using the Trimming the Town dsp

I adhered the strip of dsp to the Pool Party card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the Layering Oval dies I cut an oval from the small piece of Whisper White and a scalloped oval from the Old Olive card.

I used the snowflake stamp to randomly stamp all over the White oval in Pool Party ink. The oval was glued to the scalloped oval using the liquid glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Pretty Christmas card made using the Trimming the Town dsp

I die cut a house and a tree from one of the sheets of dsp using the Home Together dies. These were glued to the oval piece. The oval was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was cut from one of the dsp sheets and added to the card front.

I added a star to the top of the pretty little tree to complete the card.

Hello and welcome to the Stamper’s Showcase blog hop. My name is Mo Rootes and I live outside Cambridge in the UK. Our theme this month is Fall/Autumn/Halloween – such a great choice. I have opted to make a beautiful Halloween card using the Life is Beautiful stamp set.

To recreate the Beautiful Halloween card you will need;

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded Upper Left corner

Using the Stamparatus I stamped the tree image from the Life is Beautiful in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I actually stamped it 3 times to get a good dark image.

A stunning Halloween scene card made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set by Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A Halloween scene made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set and some ink blending

I used a blending brush – you could use sponges – to apply ink to the smaller Whisper White panel. I started with Daffodil Delight at the bottom, moved on to Mango Melody then Rich Razzelberry. I finished by adding Misty Moonlight across the top and around the edges to darken in up.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A Halloween scene made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set and some ink blending

The shrubs from the Nature’s Beauty stamp set were added in Memento Tuxedo Black as was the ground from the Life is Beautiful Stamp set. I didn’t have any bats the right size so added the birds from the Sailing Home stamp set in the same ink

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A Halloween scene made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set and some ink blending

The stamped panel was glued to the Mango Melody with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using my lovely Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine I embossed the Basic Black card front using the Old World Paper Embossing Folder. I love this folder……..

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A Halloween scene made using the Life is Beautiful stamp set and some ink blending

I added a flag of Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzelberry to the back of the stamped panel before adding the layer to the card front. The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a strip of Mango Melody card and added to the card front. To finish I added a trio of Holiday Rhinestones.

Posted on September 26, 2020September 26, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop where our theme is Halloween. If you have hopped over from Rachel Macleod, welcome. In the UK Halloween isn’t really a big deal, certainly not on the card front so I enjoyed the challenge of coming up with a suitable card.

To recreate the Halloween Card you will need:

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Whisper White – 5¾” by 4”
In Good Taste dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside
Scrap Basic Black, Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Shaded Spruce and Whisper White

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I glued the ‘In Good Taste’ dsp to the larger Whisper White panel and then to the Basic Black card front.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Life is Beautiful stamp set and ink blending used for a Halloween card

I used my new Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine and the Wreath Dies to die cut three wreaths – 2 shrubby wreaths one in Gorgeous Grape and the other in Pumpkin Pie and one leafy wreath from Basic Black card. I used the liquid glue to adhere the 3 wreaths together.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Life is Beautiful stamp set and ink blending used for a Halloween card

I die cut the flowers from scrap Pumpkin Pie and Gorgeous Grape card and the sprigs from Shaded Spruce card and added them to the wreath using Mini Glue Dots.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Life is Beautiful stamp set and ink blending used for a Halloween card

The wreath was then adhered to the card front with the liquid glue. I added an Elegant Faceted Gem to the centre of each flower.

The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink onto Whisper White card and trimmed out using scissors before adding it to the card front with glue.

Welcome to the Joy of Sets monthly blog hop where our theme this month is ‘wedding’. Whether you have hopped over from Libby Fens or started the hop with me you are welcome.

To recreate the Joy of Sets Wedding card you will need:

Soft Sea Foam card base – 8” by 7½” – scored and folded at 4”

I began by stamping the double rose image onto the centre of the small white panel using Highland Heather ink. I added the other flowers and leaves around in Rococo Rose, So Saffron and Soft Sea Foam ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card featuring the Eclipse Technique and made using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set

I used the playful Alphabet dies and my die cutting machine to cut the letters out of the image. Using the same dies I cut the letters out again from a foam adhesive panel and glued the coloured die cut letters to the adhesive letters.

The stamped panel was then glued to the Highland Heather layer using liquid glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card featuring the Eclipse Technique and made using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set

The backing from the die cut letters was then removed and the letters placed into the negative spaces to complete the image. I then added the ‘holes’ from the letters using the liquid adhesive…………after I had hunted through the waste bin to find them!! I forgot I would need them and threw them away……. This is known as the eclipse technique.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card featuring the Eclipse Technique and made using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set

Using the Soft Sea Foam Blends Alcohol Marker I coloured some white seam binding ribbon, wrapped it around the stamped layer and added it to the Soft Sea Foam card base.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card featuring the Eclipse Technique and made using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set

I splattered the card with a Clear Wink of Stella Pen and also used the pen to paint the letters. To complete the card I added a scattering of Gold Glitter Dots. So Pretty. I hope you like it.

Holiday Mini Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Posted on September 12, 2020September 12, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Thank you for joining me today for the Stamp ‘n Hop blog hop where our theme this month is ‘Holiday Mini’. I love this time of year with Autumn and Christmas…… so many lovely things to chose from. If you have hopped on from the lovely Sandra Hertzog, I am sure you loved her project. You are now with Mo Rootes in the UK.

I have chosen to use the In the Pines stamp set to make a fairly simple card.

To recreate the Holiday Mini card you will need:

Pool Party card base – – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Early Espresso – 5 ¼” by 3 ½”
Whisper White – 5” by 3 ¼”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside
Scrap Early Espresso

I placed the smaller panel of Whisper White in the Stamparatus, upper right corner and set up the outline of the large pine tree on one of the panels. I stamped the image with the Early Espresso ink on the left, moved along one step and stamped again without re-inking. I inked again with the same ink and repeated both steps to give 4 trees.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – In The Pines stamp set used for the Holiday Mini Hopping Around the World blog hop

I lined up the inner tree image on top of the 1^st stamped tree and picked it up with the back of the plate. I inked it up with Shaded Spruce ink and stamped it onto the first tree then moved along one hinge step to stamp the second tree and repeated the process.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – In The Pines stamp set used for the Holiday Mini Hopping Around the World blog hop

Using a sponge I added Pool Party ink around the tree to give a ‘sky’ and stamped the ground beneath each tree and the tree trunks in Early Espresso ink. The stamped layer was added to the Early Espresso layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – In The Pines stamp set used for the Holiday Mini Hopping Around the World blog hop

I wrapped a length of Linen Thread around the the panel and tied it in a bow. The panel was then adhered to the Pool Party card base using the liquid glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – In The Pines stamp set used for the Holiday Mini Hopping Around the World blog hop

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Early Espresso card stock and heat set with a Heat Tool. The sentiment was trimmed down with scissors and added to the panel with Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Two houses from the Coming Home stamp set makes a pretty Christmas card

Next I die cut some of the adorable houses from the Trimming the Town dsp using the Home Together Dies. I love it when the die set co-ordinate with some of the dsp images, so easy to make a quick card. The houses were glued to the stamped rectangle with the same liquid adhesive.

Using the Banner Triple Punch I flagged both ends of the DSP strips and glued them to the front of the Pool Party card base using the liquid glue. These were 2 scrap pieces that happened to co-ordinate with the colour combo I was using. You can use anything you happen to have.

A masculine birthday card made using the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set for the Joy of Sets Blog Hop

FONTS-amental

Posted on August 8, 2020August 3, 2020 by Mo Rootes

It is time for the Joy of Sets monthly blog hop where our theme is FONTS-amental!!!! Love this title. I love a good font but am strictly short and to the point when adding sentiments to a card. I have lots stamp sets with but find myself reaching for the same few tried and tested phrases every time. So for this challenge I have taken a sentiment only stamp set and used every one of the sentiments to make a card.

To recreate the FONTS-amental card you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pacific Point – 4⅞” by 3¼”
Whisper White – 4⅝” by 3”
Pear Pizzazz – 5⅞” by 1”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”

I mounted all the stamps from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set onto acrylic blocks and started stamping them in either Bermuda Bay ink, Pacific Point ink or Pear Pizzazz ink starting with the ‘Awesome at any age’ in the centre.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A striking masculine birthday card made for the Joy of Sets FONTS-amental blog hop

When all the sentiments had been stamped on the smallest Whisper White panel I added the stamped panel to the Pacific Point layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A striking masculine birthday card made for the Joy of Sets FONTS-amental blog hop

I ran the strip of Pear Pizzazz card through my die cutting machine with the Dainty Diamonds Embossing Folder. I added the embossed strip diagonally across the front of the Bermuda Bay card base using the same liquid adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A striking masculine birthday card made for the Joy of Sets FONTS-amental blog hop

The stamped layer was then added to the card front using Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A striking masculine birthday card made for the Joy of Sets FONTS-amental blog hop

I toyed with adding some gems or some ribbon but in the end I decided to leave well alone.

Favourite Bundle

Posted on August 8, 2020August 3, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the August Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop, if you have hopped on from Vickie Kello you are now with me, Mo Rootes and I live near Cambridge in the UK. Our theme this month is ‘favourite bundle’. There are so many gorgeous bundles in the new annual catalogue that I struggled to choose only one. After a lot of messing about I have gone for the All Things Fabulous Bundle, purely for it’s versatility and sheer beauty and the fact that I love the three step stamping.

To recreate the favourite bundle card you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded lower left corner
Pretty Peacock – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded lower left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower left corner x 2
Scrap Whisper White and Highland Heather

I began by stamping the ‘herringbone’ image from the Comfort & Hope stamp set in 3^rd generation Highland Heather ink onto one of the Whisper White panels. I wanted a soft subtle something in the background.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card made using the All Things Fabulous bundle for the Stamp ‘n hop blog hop

The solid flower image from the All Things Fabulous stamp set was stamped twice in Pool Party ink unto the Whisper White panel. I added the second image over top using Coastal Cabana ink and the third and most detailed image in Pretty Peacock ink. I love the depth and shading the multi-layer stamping gives the flowers.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card made using the All Things Fabulous bundle for the Stamp ‘n hop blog hop

The leaves were stamped in Gray Granite ink and the small flowers added in Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card made using the All Things Fabulous bundle for the Stamp ‘n hop blog hop

I added the group of buds in 2^nd generation Gray Granite and Bermuda Bay ink, before adding the stamped panel to the Pretty Peacock layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole panel was added to the Pool Party card base with Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card made using the All Things Fabulous bundle for the Stamp ‘n hop blog hop

The sentiment from the All Things Fabulous stamp set was stamped in Bermuda Bay ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock about ⅜” wide and trimmed down with scissors. A scrap of Highland Heather ½” wide was used to back the sentiment. The sentiment strip was then added to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -A pretty card made using the All Things Fabulous bundle for the Stamp ‘n hop blog hop

I added a scattering of Noble Peacock Rhinestones to complete the card. These are sadly retired but Basic Rhinestones would work just as well. I hope you like the card. Libby Dyson is up next so please hop over to see what she has to share with us this month.
