A floating inner panel card made using the Help Me Grow stamp set and dies from Stampin' Up!

Garden Themed Floating Inner Card

Posted on April 11, 2026April 10, 2026 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing fun fold cards. Love a fun fold and decided to make a garden themed floating inner card using the gorgeous Help Me Grow stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make this card are:

I created the pretty pink floral card using the following supplies:

Cajun Craze card – 5¾” by 4⅛” x 2
Basic White card – 5½” by 3⅞” x 3
Painted Illusions dsp – 5⅜” by 3¾” x 3
Basic White card – 4½” by 3½”

Thick Basic White card – 11” by 4” scored at 2¾”, 5½” & 8¼”
Petal Pink card – 3¾” by 2½” x 4 x 4
Painted Illusions dsp – 3⅝” by 2⅜” x 4
Basic White card – 3½” by 2¼” x 4
Scrap Basic White, Lemon Lolly, Granny Apple Green, Pretty Peacock, Cajun Craze, Pecan Pie & Silver Foil

The larger panels of Painted Illusions dsp were adhered to the three larger pieces of Basic White card. Two of these dsp pieces were then glued to the larger Basic White panels, one on the front and the other on the back – this will be the front of the card. The last panel was then glued to the front of the remaining large piece of Cajun Craze card.

The four smaller panels of Painted Illusions dsp were glued to the four smaller pieces of Cajun Craze card and adhered them to the 4 panels of the 11” by 4” Basic White card. This is the floating inner panel.

The left-hand panel of the floating inner was placed onto the back of the front panel, lined up with the edge of the Basic White layer and glued into position. I repeated this step with right-hand panel and the back part of the card base.

Using the Every Day Arches Dies I cut a large arch from the 4½” by 3½” of Basic White card. I also cut 4 smaller arches from the 3½” by 2¼” pieces of Basic White card.

I used a Blending Brush to add some Lemon Lolly ink to the die cut arches before adhering them to the card.

Let the decorating begin – for the front I stamped, and die cut a pot using Cajun Craze ink. I die cut the saucer from Basic White scrap and added Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow ink with Sponge Daubers. I cut a slit at the top of the pot and added leaves, die cut from scrap Granny Apple and Pretty Peacock card. The flowers were cut from scrap Lemon Lolly and White card and the yellow centres added with a Lemon Lolly Blends Pen. All the pieces were then arranged on the card front.

A selection of pots, saucers, leaves, flowers, soil and tools were stamped and or die cut before being added to the inside of the card on the floating panel.

I roughly laid the die cut rectangles out on the panel of Basic Beige to see how they would best fit. Some of the rectangles were cut down to make them shorter or thinner.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Darling Dinos stamp set and the Perennial Postage dies used to make a ‘no dinos’ sampler style card

All of the images from the Darling Dinos stamp set were stamped on the rectangles with Secret Sea ink and coloured them in using the following Blends Pens – Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie, Dark Naturals & Secret Sea. The decorated rectangles were then added to the Basic Beige panel on Dimensionals.

Here is an adorable card featuring a pot full of flowers made using the Storybook Garden Patch and the Extraordinary Flora stamp set and dies. It was inspired by a card designed by Dena Rekow of the Creativity Cave – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWzhWu9rR_8.

Partially Die Cut Blessings of Home for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

Posted on March 11, 2023March 11, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects showcasing die-cutting. I have chosen to share a partially die cut card featuring the Blessings of Home stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the blessings of home card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Abigail Rose dsp – 5⅝” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Gold Glimmer card – 5⅜” by approx. 1⅞”
Gold Glimmer card – 5⅝” by ⅜”
Basic Black strip ¼” wide

I began by gluing the Abigail Rose designer series paper (dsp) to the Thick Basic White card front – I had to add a strip of Gold Glimmer to the right side as I had managed to cut the dsp slightly to short.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Blessings of Home stamp set and Flowers of Home Dies used to demonstrate the partial die-cutting technique for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

The large floral stamp from the Blessings of Home stamp set was stamped in the middle of the panel of Basic White card in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk -The Blessings of Home stamp set and Flowers of Home Dies used to demonstrate the partial die-cutting technique for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

I placed the co-ordinating die form the Flowers of Home set of dies was then placed over the stamped image and secured in place with a little washi tape. I then placed the top cutting plate half way across right-hand side of the stamped image and ran it through the Cut and Emboss Machine, die-cutting only the right side. Using Paper snips, I cut from the top and bottom of the panel until I reached the edge of the die-cut area and dropped the excess in the bin.

I added the larger piece of Gold Glimmer behind the left-side, uncut part of the panel. I cut it down to fit the piece exactly.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A gorgeous in color bottled happiness card made for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

I wanted to have 2 colours of flowers in the bouquet so added the Sweet Sorbet and Orchid Oasis inks using the 2022 – 2024 In Color Stamp ‘n Write Markers. Such a great technique. The leaves were then added in Parakeet Party ink.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A gorgeous in color bottled happiness card made for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

This panel was then added to the Orchid Oasis panel with Multicoloured Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A gorgeous in color bottled happiness card made for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

At this point I decided I needed some of the smaller bottles in the picture. I initially tried masking off the original bottle but wasn’t happy with the results and ended up stamping the bottles in Starry Sky and Sweet Sorbet ink onto scrap Basic White card and fussy cutting them out. The Sweet Sorbet bottle was cut down and added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the Starry Sky bottle added on Dimensionals.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A gorgeous in color bottled happiness card made for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

I stamped the floral image in the upper left and lower right corner of the Tahitian Tide card front using Tahitian Tide ink. The stamped panel was then added with liquid glue.

The sentiment was stamped in Starry Sky ink onto the strip of Basic White, trimmed down and flagged before it was added to the card front.

A bow made from the Starr Sky Ribbon and a trio of the 2022 – 2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots were added to complete the card.
