Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are working with a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. I have chosen a diagonal line featuring ‘orange, layers and torn’.

To recreate the abundance of pumpkins card, you will need:

Cajun Craze card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”

The whole piece was trimmed down to 5¾” before it was glued to the Cajun Craze card base.

Rustic Tools card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on June 4, 2024June 4, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing ‘Vintage’ style projects. I have interpreted this as shabby chic, a style of cardmaking I really struggle with….. I have chosen to use the Trusty Toolbox stamp set to make my rustic tools card.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the rustic tools card, you will need:

Copper Clay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic Beige card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic Beige card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Scrap Basic Beige card

I began by stamping the outline of 3 paintbrushes in Early Espresso ink onto the smaller panel of Basic Beige card. Colour was added to the handle of each brush and the tip of the bristles using, firstly Wild Wheat ink, then Pecan Pie ink and finally Copper Clay ink. I swiped the matching colour below the bristles using the edge of each ink pad.

www.crafty-rootes.com – The Trusty Tools stamp set used to make a vintage paintbrush card for a vintage themed card Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Using Blending Brushes I inked, with all three colours, around the edges of the panel. I the tore along the bottom and inked the ragged edge to match. I randomly stamped the dotty image, from the Country Birdhouse stamp set, in all three colours. I used a Bone Folder in the upper left corner to breakdown the fibres and separate the layers of the cardstock. I inked the corner to match. The whole panel was the adhered to one of the larger Basic Beige panels which had the bottom edge torn.

A length of Linen Thread was wrapped, three times around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape.

A pretty lavender farm themed card made using the Hills of Tuscany stamp set - Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Hills of Italian Lavender – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Posted on February 25, 2024February 17, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Share It Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on recently. I am loving the Hills of Tuscany stamp set and have used it to make a pretty water coloured card.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the Italian lavender hills card, you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 3¾” by 2¾”
Basic Black card – 3⅝” by 2⅝”
Fluid 100 card – 3½” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

Using a Spritzer, filled with water, I sprayed the piece of Fluid 100 card with enough water to make it wet.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

The large curved image was inked in Highland Heather ink, then lightly spritzed with water before I stamped the image at the bottom of the Fluid 100 card. The colour didn’t look right and I realised the stamp had picked up a little Old Olive ink from the scrap paper the Fluid 100 was resting on – quite liked it so carried on. I stamped again in Highland Heather ink to add more ‘ground’.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

The large ‘sky’ image was inked up with Azure Afternoon ink, spritzed with water and stamped at the top of the panel, I added the small ‘cloud’ like image using the Azure Afternoon ink in 1^st & 2^nd generation to add some depth. The panel was set the panel to one side to dry.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

When the panel was dry, I added the more defined ‘ground’ images with 1^st & 2^nd generation Gorgeous Grape ink. This time I didn’t spritze with water. The dotty image was stamped to give the impression of flowers.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

The house was stamped in Starry Sky ink and the roof added in Night of Navy ink. I used the Black Stampin’ Write Marker to add some definition to the windows. I managed to stamp the roof slightly squint but quite liked the effect so left it.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

The group of trees were stamped in Garden Green ink. I used a Waterpainter to smear the ink on the trees – this gives a greater depth of colour. When completely dry, the finished piece was glued to the Basic Black panel, then to the 3¾” by 2¾” piece of Basic White card.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Hills of Tuscany stamp set used to make a pretty lavender farm themed card – Share It Sunday Blog Hop
