Rooted in Nature with Stamparatus Tips

I hope you have enjoyed the Product of the Week focus on the Rooted In Nature Bundle.  Today’s card is the one I featured in my Facebook Live video on June 29, 2018.  In the video I showed several tips on how to use the Stamparatus to create this card.

The Stamparatus works beautifully with the large background stamps.  It’s easy to get full coverage from the stamp because of the precision placement that the Stamparatus offers.  In the video you can also see how to get a partial background image.  I share some tips with using grid paper – I just cut up used full size sheets into 7-1/4″ squares to fit in my Stamparatus.  This card also uses the Nature’s Twine – which is a little too thick for me, so I untwisted it into three strands and just used one for the card.  If you didn’t watch live on my FB Page you can watch it below on my YouTube link.

Rooted in Nature Trinkets

Happy Wednesday!  I’m continuing to share ideas using the Rooted In Nature Bundle.  Let’s take a look at today’s card – it’s the first one I made with this bundle.  It was actually the card that we made at the Stampin’ Up! OnStage event in April.  The event was so much fun and we got our first look at the brand new catalog and a chance to play with some of the products.  I’d love for you to join my team and come with me to the big 30 Year OnStage Celebration in April.  A new sign up special is coming in July – and it’s a good one!

Rooted in Nature

This card features a couple of the accessories that are part of the whole Nature’s Poem Suite of products.  The Leaves Trinkets and the Nature’s Twine.  The Leaves Trinkets are metallic leaves in both copper and silver that can be added to your creations – I used mini glue dots to add them to this card.  Your going to love these trinkets so be sure to place a qualifying order (minimum order of $30 in products) this week and I’ll mail you a sample – use hostess code ETSM4PDT by June 30, 2018.

 

One of the colors included in the pack of Nature’s Twine is the Mint Macaron used on this card – additional colors are Crumb Cake, Blackberry Bliss, and Grapefruit Grove.  It seems like I’ve used some designs from the Nature’s Poem Designer Series paper on every card so far.  On July 1st we will be starting a Designer Paper Sale and this one will be included!  Tucked behind the stamped sentiment are stamped and die cut leaves, and the Leaves Trinkets.

Rooted In Nature Bundle

This week I’m planning to share ideas using the Rooted In Nature Bundle, it’s become one of my favorites.  It’s part of the Nature’s Poem Suite of products in the new annual catalog.  The Bundle includes the Rooted in Nature stamp set and the Nature’s Roots Framelits Dies.  I’ve been using this stamp set a lot this month.  I think you are going to love this bundle and how it will work for so many occasions including masculine cards which are always a struggle. It also pairs with well with the long time favorite set Lovely as a Tree – I’ve had that set longer than I’ve been a demonstrator!

World's Best Father

The Nature’s Poem Designer Series paper has a variety of patterns and prints and used two of them on this card.  I used two of the main colors from the paper – Tranquil Tide and Soft Suede.  The tree ring behind the words is actually stamped in Crumb Cake and it’s stamped “off” – which means you ink it up and then stamp it first on scratch paper before stamping it on the card stock which creates a lighter version.  I wanted it to be light for this card so I could stamp the words on top and they would stand out.  Use your Paper Snips to fussy cut the tree ring for this card – it’s easy to cut out by hand.

Supply List

  • Rooted in Nature Stamp Set
  • Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set
  • Natures’ Poem Designer Series paper
  • Soft Suede card stock
  • Tranquil Tide card stock
  • Very Vanilla card stock
  • Tranquil Tide ink
  • Crumb Cake ink
  • Soft Suede ink
  • Paper Snips

Rooted in Nature Bundle

 

I made this card for my dad for Father’s day.  It would work for other occasions too – just leave off the World’s Best Father stamp or change it to something else.  Itty Bitty greetings as a variety of phrases that could be used – happy birthday would be an easy substitution.  Be sure to come back throughout the week and keep tabs on my Facebook page for more ideas with this bundle throughout the week.
