Scenic Adventures Classes

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the cards made for my September 2025 classes using the Scenic Adventures stamp set and dies. For my September classes I always try to sneak in a Christmas card design – some of my ladies think this is too early!

Colours used to make these cards are:

 

Window Card

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – circle die cut from the upper ⅓ using the Spotlight on Nature Dies
Basic White – 4⅛” by 3⅝”
Shaded Spruce – 3” by 1¾”
Basic White – 3” by ¾” – label die cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies
Blueberry Bushel – 3” by ¼”

 

We punched out a mask from a Post It Note and used a 1” Circle Punch and added it to the upper part of the 4⅛” by 3⅝” panel of Basic White card with the 4⅛” side going up and down.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Scenic Adventures stamp set and co-ordinating Dies used to make 3 scenic, mountain view cards including a Christmas card

Using a Blending Brush, we inked the upper ⅔’s of the Basic White panel with lightly applied Blueberry Bushel ink. Using the same technique and a different Blending Brush we added Smoky Slate ink to the bottom ⅓ of the panel and the mask was removed. I used the ‘water image stamp to add texture to the ground with 2nd generation Smoky Slate ink.

You could add it with Dimensionals, but I didn’t for this class. The whole panel was then added to the Thick Basic White card front on Dimensionals.

Cheers & Sips Classes – Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have made. I have chosen to share the cards I designed for my June classes using the Cheers & Sips stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

General supplies

¼ sheet of Basic White card
Scrap Secret Sea card

 

To start each attendee had a ¼ sheet of Basic White card and used Blending Brushes to add stripes of colour to the card. We started with Darling Duckling, then Timid Tiger, Melon Mambo and finally Summer Splash. We overlapped some of the colours to give other colours and tones.

Onto this panel we stamped 3 small glasses, 2 large glasses and 3 umbrella tops using Secret Sea ink and die cut the images using the Cheers and Sips Dies. The embossing die was used to emboss one of the tall glasses.

 

From the scrap Secret Sea card we die cut 3 handles for the umbrella.

A trio of cards for my May 2025 classes using the Sunrise Sailing stamp set, Hybrid Embossing Folder and Dies from Stampin' Up!

Sunrise Sailing Classes

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the cards I designed for my May 2025 classes using the Sunrise Sailing stamp set, embossing folder and dies.

Colours used to make these cards are:

 

Arched card

Blueberry Bushel card – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White – 5” by 3¾” x 2
Basic White – 2⅛” by ⅜”
Coastal Cabana – 4⅛ by 1⅛” x 2
Scrap Basic White

 

Using the largest arch from the Everyday Arches Dies I cut the Blueberry Bushel card base. The trick is to place the die with the left-hand cutting edge overhanging the fold of the card front. I also die cut 2 smaller arches form the 5” by 3¾” panels of Basic White card saving one for the inside of the card.

Blueberry Bushel ink was lightly added to the remaining white arch using a Blending Brush.

From the 2 strips of Coastal Cabana card we die cut the wavy edges and adhered them to bottom of the inked arch, one above the other to form the sea.

The boat was stamped on scrap Basic White card using Blueberry Bushel ink, the inside colour added to the sails with Poppy Parade ink and the boat body stamped with Coastal Cabana ink. The boat was then die cut using the Sunrise Sailing Dies. We also die cut a couple of clouds from the same scrap card.

The boat was then mounted onto the decorated arch on Dimensionals. The clouds were added flat and the excess trimmed off. The birds were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The arch was then glued to the card front.

The sentiment, from the Darling Dinos was stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink onto scrap Basic White card. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front.
