I began by stamping the largest flower in Rococo Rose ink at the top and bottom of one of the Basic White panels.

I added the ‘hydrangea image’ in Purple Posy ink. The other flowers were added in Terracotta Tile and Seaside Spray ink

The leaves were added in Pretty Peacock ink. The stamped panel was then added to the Pretty Peacock layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Using the same glue I added the layer to the Seaside Spray card front.

I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink onto the small square of Basic White card and die cut it using the Layering Circles Dies and Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

Using the same set of dies I cut a slightly larger scalloped circle from the square of Pretty Peacock. The sentiment was glued to the scalloped circle with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Thick Basic White – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”

The sentiment from the Garden Wishes stamp set was stamped in Old Olive ink onto scrap Very Vanilla, trimmed out with sharp scissors. I mounted it on a scrap of Old Olive.

Fireworks at New Year

Posted on December 29, 2020December 29, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop where our theme is ‘New Year’s Eve Party’, I have used the gorgeous Beauty Abounds stamp set and the Joseph’s Coat technique to suggest a night sky lit up with fireworks at New Year.

To recreate the Fireworks at New Year card, you will need:

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Daffodil Delight – 5½“ by 3¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 3

I used daubers to cover one of the Whisper White panels with splotches of colour using the Daffodil Delight, Real Red, Pacific Point and Just Jade ink pads.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Fireworks at New Year using the Joseph’s Coat Technique for the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop

Next, I randomly stamped the larger bokeh dot image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set across the same panel, rotating the stamp each time. I then covered the panel with Clear Embossing Powder. The embossing powder was the heat et using my Heat Tool.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Fireworks at New Year using the Joseph’s Coat Technique for the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop

I then used my Memento Tuxedo Black inkpad to swipe across the embossed panel until the whole piece was covered with a heavy layer of black ink………and yes, I did get really, really messy…… Taking a small, damp cloth I wiped each or the embossed images clean of black ink revealing the gorgeous vibrant colours underneath.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Fireworks at New Year using the Joseph’s Coat Technique for the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop

Using the Playful Alphabet Dies I die cut the word HAPPY and the numbers 2021 from Foam Adhesive Sheet. Using washi tape to hold the letters together I die cut the word HAPPY and the year 2021 from the embossed and inked panel.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Fireworks at New Year using the Joseph’s Coat Technique for the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop

Each letter or number was then stuck to its foam counterpart. The embossed panel was adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to another of the Whisper White panel. Using a Basic Black Marker I inked around the edges of the panel – in hind sight I would have been better to have used a Basic Black Panel – before adhering it to the Daffodil Delight layer with the liquid glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Fireworks at New Year using the Joseph’s Coat Technique for the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop

The die cut letters were then placed back in the negative spaces and the embossed patched painted with Clear Wink of Stella and voila, the card was finished.

Colour Combo Blog Hop

Posted on November 8, 2020November 7, 2020 by Mo Rootes

Thank you for joining me today for the Colour Combo Blog Hop where our colours are: Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose. I have chosen to use the All Things Fabulous stamp set to make my card, If you have hoped over from Jenn Charles, I am sure you loved her great project.

To Recreate the All Things Fabulous card, you will need:.

Rococo Rose card base –- 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right and lower left corners
Coastal Cabana – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper right corner x 2
Whisper White – 3½” by 2½” –- Rounded upper right corner

I ran one of the larger Whisper White panels through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. I love the subtle effect this folder gives to a project. The embossed layer was glued to the Coastal Cabana panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole panel was added to the Rococo Rose card base with the same liquid Glue.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -All Things Fabulous used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop using Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose.

The sentiment from the Peaceful Poppies stamp set was stamped in Coastal Cabana ink onto the small panel of Whisper White. It was die cut using the Stitched So Sweetly dies and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -All Things Fabulous used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop using Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose.

The larger flower was stamped in Rococo Rose. I stamped the inner detailed layer in full strength ink, added the middle layer in 2^nd generation ink and the final layer in 3^rd generation ink. I love that you can get lots of different shades from the same ink pad.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -All Things Fabulous used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop using Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose.

The smaller flower was stamped in Daffodil Delight ink. I find this one works better stamping the images in reverse – so 3^rd generation ink for largest stamp first, 2^nd generation for the middle image and full strength for the more detailed image,

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -All Things Fabulous used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop using Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose.

The leaves were stamped in Coastal Cabana, full strength and 2^nd generation. All of the images were die cut using the Fabulous Floral dies. The images were then adhered to the card front with either liquid adhesive and/or dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -All Things Fabulous used for the Colour Combo Blog Hop using Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight and Rococo Rose.

I added a bow made from the lovely Whisper White Seam Binding Ribbon and coloured in 3 Pearls using the Rococo Rose Blends Markers and added them to the card front.

Sweet card. I hope you like it.
