A gorgeous Christmas card made using the Peaceful Cabin stamp set by Stampin' Up! and made for a team swap

Team Swaps – Peaceful Cabin

Posted on August 1, 2021August 3, 2021 by Mo Rootes

We had a fun team meeting yesterday, first in person meet since before Christmas 2019. It was so lovely to see everyone again and to share news and inspiration. As part of the event many of us made swaps to share and I chose to make mine using the Peaceful Cabin stamp set from the July – December 2021 mini catalogue which launches to customers on the 3^rd August.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the team swap card, you will need:

Balmy Blue cad base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Mossy Meadow card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Basic White card – ⅜” strip

I stamped the cabin in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. I was making multiple cards for the team swap and the Stamparatus gave me the opportunity to stamp the image many times with ease. I could also re-stamp if I wanted the image to be darker. Love my Stamparatus.

I stamped the image again on a Post It Note, cut it out and used it to mask the cabin before stamping the large trees in Mossy Meadow ink.

The mask was left in place and I added a 1” circle mask for the moon. Using a Blending Brush, I added Balmy Blue ink to create the sky behind the cabin and trees. The masks were then removed.

The ‘snow’ on the ground was coloured using a very light application of Pool Party ink using a Blending Brush.

The clouds were added in Balmy Blue ink to give some texture to the sky. The sweet little fox was added in Cinnamon Cider ink. The inked panel was then added to the Mossy Meadow layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then added to the Balmy Blue card front on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment – from the Peaceful Deer stamp set – in Mossy Meadow ink onto the Basic White strip, trimmed it down with Scissors and added it to the card front. To finish I added Clear Wink of Stella to the roof of the cabin and the snow on the ground, so pretty.

Christmas Trimmings for the Ink. Stamp, Share. Blog Hop

Posted on July 24, 2021August 3, 2021 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp, Share Blog Hop where our theme is ‘Christmas in July’. We have so many lovely Christmas goodies coming in the new July – December 2021 Mini Catalogue that we can sometimes overlook the Christmas sets in the Annual Catalogue. I have chosen to use one of these sets, Christmas Trimmings, to make my card.

Colours used in this project are:

T recreate the Christmas Trimmings card, you will need:

So Saffron card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Early Espresso card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Very Vanilla card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner x 2 – one for the inside
Early Espresso card – 3¼” by ⅝”
Gold Metallic Speciality Paper

Using the’ basket weave’ image from the Natural Textures stamp set I stamped in 2^nd generation So Saffron ink to stamp all over one of the Very Vanilla panels. This gives both colour and texture to the background. The stamped panel was then added to the Early Espresso panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, then to the So Saffron card base with the same glue.

This was made by filling a Stampin’ Spritzer ¾ full of 70% alcohol and adding a pea sized drop of the shimmer paint. Shake well and spray. GORGEOUS………….

I hope you like the card.
