The flowers were added to the card base on either liquid glue or Dimensionals and the leaves were tucked underneath. The whole panel was added to the Copper Clay layer which was then mounted onto the Lemon Lolly card base.

Framed Florets Water-coloured for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on April 4, 2023March 26, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing projects using water coloring techniques. I have used the pretty Framed Florets stamps set to make my card.

Fluid 100 card – 5” by 3¼”

I mounted the sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set onto the plate of the Stamparatus, inked it up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped down on the 2½” by 2½” piece of Fluid 100 card. I repeated this step to get a nice dark image. This was then die-cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies.

The double flower image was the mounted onto the Stamparatus Plate, inked up with StaZon Jet Black ink and stamped onto the panel of Fluid 100 card. I repeated the step then moved the image and stamped again onto the same panel.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A lovely water-coloured card made for the Technique Tuesday blog Hop using the Framed Florets stamp set

When the StaZon ink was dry I began to watercolour the images, beginning with the leaves. I used my Water Painters to add a little water to the leaves, this helps the ink to flow on the card. I added a drop of Granny Apple Green re-inker to the lid of the Granny Apple Green inkpad, loosen the ink with a little water and painted in the leaves.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A lovely water-coloured card made for the Technique Tuesday blog Hop using the Framed Florets stamp set

The flowers were painted in the same way with Daffodil Delight ink and a little Sweet Sorbet ink in the centre, allowing it to bleed out a little. I left the piece to dry.

When the ink was dry I added Soft Sea Foam around the stamped and coloured images, using water to blur the ink giving a faded look. When the panel was completely dry I glued it to the Sweet Sorbet layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. A length of Sweet Sorbet and white Baker’s Twine was wrapped around the panel and the whole piece then added to the Soft Sea Foam card front using the same liquid glue.

Posted on March 23, 2023March 4, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a photo/colour challenge. A soon as I saw the colours, I thought they would make a fantastic floral Mother’s Day card, so that is what I made.

Scrap Basic White, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Polished Pink, Poppy Parade and Granny Apple Green

Using one of the dies from the Something Fancy Dies set, I cut a piece from all 4 sides along the bottom, this created the ‘legs’ for my planter. The whole piece was then embossed using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder. I embossed it one end at a time. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the tab to the side f the box, forming a square ‘planter’ with legs.
