The images were then inked up with Berry Burst ink and randomly stamped onto the Bubble Bath panel.

 

Across the panel I ran 2 strips of Tear & Tape as per the sketch. I removed the backing paper to reveal the adhesive and dipped the panel, face down into my tub of Gilded Leafing.

I used a soft brush to remove the excess gilded leafing revealing the stripes. The stamped panel was glued to the Berry Burst layer and then to the Thick Basic White card front.

A one sheet wonder made using the baby wipe technique and the Snow Crystal stamp by Stampin' Up! to make 6 cards for the Christmas Stampatho

Snow Crystal one sheet wonder for the Christmas Stampathon

Today I am sharing the cards I made for this months Christmas Stampathon where our theme is ‘Snow & Ice’. I decided to use the large Snow Crystal stamp to make a one sheet wonder using the baby white technique and icy colours.

 

Colours used to make these cards:

 

To recreate the snow crystal card, you will need:

6 Card bases – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – I chose Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel, Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather & Gorgeous Grape – Rounded upper right corner
6 matting layers – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – I chose Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel, Fresh Freesia & Gorgeous Grape – Rounded upper right corner
1½ A4 sheets of Basic White card – after stamping these were cut down to give 6 panels measuring 5¼” by 3½” and rounded the upper right corners
6 Basic White panels – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside – Rounded upper right corner

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Snow Crystal stamp used to make a one sheet wonder using the baby wipe technique for the Christmas Stampathon

I began by laying 3 damp baby wipes on a plate, one on top of the other. I then added spots of re-inker to fill the centre of the baby white layers to make a sort of ink pad. I used Pool Party, Blueberry Bushel, Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Parakeet Party.

The large snow crystal image was then inked up using the makeshift ink pad and stamped down the length of the 1½ A4 sheets of Basic White card. I twisted the image around so that the colour on the stamp was different each time. I then stamped again from side to side.

I wrapped a length of Glittered Organdy Ribbon around 5 of the cards – I ran out so used a piece of the silver trim ribbon instead – the ribbon was adhered on the back with Sellotape. The panels were then added to the card bases using the same liquid glue.

4 Christmas cards made using the one-sheet wonder technique and the Leaves of Holly stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Holly One-Sheet Wonder for September Classes

We had such fun in classes over the last couple of weeks using the Leaves of Holly stamp set to create a holly one sheet wonder and then cut the sheet apart to create four simple cards.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the holly one sheet wonder cards, you will need:

1 sheet of A4 sheet of Basic White card – to stamp on
4 Card bases – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
4 Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Basic White strip ¾” wide

Creating the one sheet wonder:

We stamped the larger detailed holly leaf using Evening Evergreen ink and added the solid leafy image overtop using Soft Succulent ink. The smaller holly leaf was stamped in the same way using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and Smoky Slate ink.

The outline berries were stamped in Sweet Sorbet ink and the in-fill colour added using Polished Pink ink. We added the dotage image from the Painted Poppies stamp set in Soft Sea Foam ink. Finally, we stamped the trio of snowflakes, randomly in Orchid Oasis ink.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Leaves of Holly stamp set used to make a one-sheet wonder which was then made into 4 Christmas cards for September classes

Using a Paper Trimmer, we then cut the A4 sheet into 4 equal pieces by cutting it at 5⅞” on the long side and 4⅛” on the short side.

The ladies then chose 4 card bases form the co-ordinating colours – Soft Sea Foam, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Smoky Slate, Basic Black, Polished Pink, Sweet Sorbet & Orchid Oasis.

Once they had chosen the card bases, they wanted to use, the ladies decided which panels to use for a portrait card and which as a landscape card. They also decided whether to leave the panels whole and plain or to emboss them.

Some chose to cut them into strips 1¼” wide, or from corner to corner diagonally. I cut layers of a co-ordinating card to mount the strips onto.

The sentiments were then stamped, either directly onto the panel or onto ¾” strips of Basic White card and trimmed them down before adding them to the card fronts.

A one sheet wonder technique used to make some pretty snowflake Christmas cards using the So Many Snowflakes stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Jolly Snowflakes for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on. I have chosen to share some Jolly Snowflakes cards using a modified version of a one sheet wonder,

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the jolly snowflakes cards, you will need:

Card Bases – 2 Pool Party and 2 Highland Heather – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” with one rounded corner
2 Coastal Cabana and 2 Gorgeous Grape panels – 5⅜” by 3⅝” with one rounded corner
4 panels of Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” with one rounded corner
4 panels of Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap, Basic White, Coastal Cabana & Gorgeous Grape – for the sentiments

 

I placed the 4 smaller Basic White panels in a square onto a piece of grid paper. The largest snowflake was inked up in Pool Party ink and stamped randomly overlapping the layers of card stock.

The next snowflake was added in Highland Heather ink, again concentrating the stamping along the cross shaped join lines of the Basic White card pieces. The Coastal Cabana Snowflake was added next and lastly the Gorgeous Grape snowflake.

I separated the stamped panels and added each to either, a Coastal Cabana or a Gorgeous Grape panel.

The stamped label was then added to a coloured label using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the 2 largest images from the Hand-Penned stamp set I randomly stamped all over the large piece of Basic White using Evening Evergreen ink. I kept the images as close together as possible, turning them to get a good fit.

I cut one of these pieces in half again and mounted both strips onto one of the larger Basic White panels with the liquid glue. I wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adhering it to the Daffodil Delight card base.  Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut 2 labels, one from the small piece of Basic White and the other from the larger piece of Soft Succulent. The sentiment was stamped on the smaller label in Soft Succulent ink, the panels were the glued together and mounted on the card front on Dimensionals. I added a bow on a Mini Glue Dot.

Using one of the large images I stamped in Soft Succulent ink onto the Soft Succulent card base. The Basic White panel was added to the centre of the card front. The remaining stamped panel was added to the Evening Evergreen layer with liquid glue, then to the Basic White panel on the Soft Succulent card base. Using Polished Pink ink, I stamped the sentiment onto scrap Basic White card and trimmed it out with scissors. I added a scrap piece of Soft Succulent to the back of the sentiment and glued it to the card base.
