I inked up the flower heads using a Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Write Marker and the stem and leaves with a Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Marker. I huffed on the stamp to re-moisten the ink and stamped the flower onto the scalloped rectangle.

Colour the larger flowers using the Petal Pink Stampin’ Write Marker, colour the remaining flowers with a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker and the leaves with a Mint Macaron Marker. I huffed on the image to re-moisten the ink and stamped onto the punched panel, above the bottle aperture.

We turned the panel face down and inserted the bottle into the negative space. We added a large pinch of the Effervescent bubble to the bottle. We punched another bottle using the same punch from scrap Mint Macaron card and stamped randomly over the bottle with Mint Macaron ink. The stamped bottle was inserted into the panel to close the back.

The whole piece was glued to the Petal Pink card front and Basic Rhinestones added to the largest flower centres.

We repeated this step to add flowers to the other side of the panel. The stamped layer was then added to the Petal Pink panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

A length of 2022- 2024 In Color Twine was wrapped around the panel before it was adhered to the Calypso Coral card base.

A Gilded Happiness card for the Adhesives Blog Hop

Posted on June 2, 2022May 24, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Adhesives Blog Hop where we are sharing projects and tips using some of the adhesive options. I am sharing a pretty gilded happiness card using gilding flakes and the Happiness Abounds stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the gilded happiness card, you will need:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
Calypso Coral card – 5¼” by 3½” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper right corner
Basic Gray card – ½” strip
Scrap Basic White card

I placed the smaller panel of Basic White card onto my Silicon Mat and added strips of Tear ‘n Tape Adhesive in the lower left corner. I cut off the excess. Using the Silicon mat means I don’t have to worry about the tape sticking to everything else!!!

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Gorgeous Gilding Flakes and the Happiness Abounds stamp set used for the Adhesives Blog Hop

The backing paper was removed and I carefully, dunked the sticky panel into my tub of gliding flake. I love the gilding flakes but my goodness you can make a real mess with them if you aren’t careful. I used a Blending Brush to rub away the excess flakes revealing the golden stripes. The panel was then added to the Calypso Coral panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive which gives a little wiggle room to get the layer perfectly positioned. The panel was then added with the same liquid glue to the Petal Pink card front.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Gorgeous Gilding Flakes and the Happiness Abounds stamp set used for the Adhesives Blog Hop

I stamped 3 of the flowers and 3 sets of leaves from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in Gray Granite ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut them out using the Blossoming Happiness Dies.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -Gorgeous Gilding Flakes and the Happiness Abounds stamp set used for the Adhesives Blog Hop

To Recreate the in-color smiles card, you will need:

Sweet Sorbet card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Starry Sky card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Basic White card – 3¾” by 1½”

Using my Grid Paper and a ruler I measured down 1¼” and using a pencil drew a line across one of the larger panels of Basic White card. I drew another line about 1 ½” lower. This helped me to arrange my stamping.

I began by stamping the leafy sprig in Parakeet Party above and below the lines. The Sweet Sorbet flower was stamped next.

The smaller flower in Tahitian Tide ink was used to fill in some of the gaps and the smaller plume added in Orchid Oasis.

I used Starry Sky ink to add centres to all the flowers. The decorated panel was then glued to the Starry Sky layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the whole panel was added to the Sweet Sorbet card base using the same glue. I used a clean rubber to erase the pencil lines.

The larger part of the sentiment was stamped in Starry Sky ink and the smaller sentiment added using Sweet Sorbet………I messed this up and ended up re-stamping it onto scarp Basic white and die cutting it out using one of the labels from the co-ordinating Sending Dies. I added this over the badly stamped words using liquid adhesive. This piece was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
