Hello! Welcome to Kylie & Bruno Bertucci’s Demonstrator Training Blog Hop for August 2023. I’m Theresa with Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts & I have an Earthen Textures Thank You card today.
I am so glad you are joining me! We are a group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world who are taking part in training to help us build a successful Stampin’ Up! business. My goal is to participate in the monthly Blog Hop. This blog hop is full of ideas and creative inspiration! Be sure to visit everyone’s blog by clicking on the links at the end of my blog.
Measurements
Copper Clay cardstock card base: 4 1/4″ x 11″ with a score line at 5 1/2″
Very Vanilla cardstock: 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″, 2″ x 2 1/2″, 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ and 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″ (inside)
Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper (DSP): 4″ x 5 1/4″
Supplies
Earthen Textures stamp set
Ink: Pecan Pie, Copper Clay, Pretty Peacock and Moody Mauve
Brushed Metallic Dots
Natural 1/4″ Wavy Trim
Bone Folder
Foam Adhesive Strips
Stampin’ Dimensionals
Mini Glue Dots
Multipurpose Liquid Glue
Paper snips
Instructions
Stamp Off a clay pot onto the bottom of the 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ Very Vanilla cardstock.
Also stamp a clay pot in Copper Clay Ink onto the 2″ x 2 1/2″ Very Vanilla cardstock. Fussy cut this pot. Note: I did not use the Earthen Textures Dies to cut out the pot because the die cuts off the edges of the pot.
Place a sticky note over the bottom of the Stamped Off clay pot. This will prevent the stems from showing at the bottom.
Stamp the various branches and leaf fronds so that they appear to be in the Stamped Off clay pot. I used Pecan Pie Ink for the full leaf frond, Pretty Peacock Ink for the open leaf frond and Moody Mauve Ink for the branch with the small flowers on it.
Stamp the “Thank You” sentiment in Pretty Peacock Ink onto the 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ Very Vanilla cardstock strip.
For the inside of the card, stamp the various branches in the same colors that you used on the front of the card.
Adhere the inside card piece to the inside of the Copper Clay cardstock card base.
Adhere the Earthen Elegance DSP to the front of the card base.
Adhere the Very Vanilla cardstock with the Stamped Off pot and branches to the card front.
Use your Bone Folder on the fussy cut clay pot to curl the cardstock. This will create a curved 3D pot.
Apply a Foam Adhesive Strip down the center of the curved pot.
Adhere the curved pot to the card front over the Stamped Off clay pot.
Apply Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the right side of the sentiment. Use a drop of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the back of the left side. Adhere the sentiment to the card front.
Pull 2 strings off of the Wavy Ribbon and tie a bow. Adhere to the top of the clay pot with a mini Glue dot.
Embellish with the copper Metallic Dots.

I was interested in a blue moth and found several awesome photos on Google. I combined elements of the 2 moths above to create the moth on the Night of Flight Thank You card.
Instructions
Stamp the large moth in Memento Ink onto the Basic White cardstock.
Stamp the inside of the wings in Azure Afternoon ink.
Use the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to draw the “eyes” on the wings.
Use the Stampin’ Blends to color the wings.
Fussy cut the moth with the Paper Snips. Use the bone folder to slightly curve the wings and set aside.
Use the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder to emboss the Copper Clay cardstock.
Lightly drag the Copper Clay Ink Pad over the embossed Copper Clay cardstock with the raised side up. This adds dimension to the brick wall.
Cut the Crumb Cake cardstock into 3/4″ x 2″ and 1″ x 2″ strips.
Use the Copper Clay Ink to stamp the sentiment “thanks” onto the 3/4″ x 2″ strip.
Place the 3 Crumb Cake cardstock strips in the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
Cut the 1″ x 2″ embossed Crumb Cake cardstock strip into a 1″ x 1 1/2″ piece. Then cut in half so you get two 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ pieces to use for the posts of the sign.
Die cut 3 leaves with the Cheerful Daisies Dies from the 3″ x 4″ Mossy Meadow cardstock.
Adhere the Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.
Now adhere the embossed Copper Clay cardstock to the front of the card base.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the moth.
Glue the sign posts to the Thanks sign and adhere to the card front.
Add the Mossy Meadow cardstock diecut leaves.
For some extra sparkle, brush on the Wink of Stella to the moth’s wings.

Hello fellow stampers! You are visiting with Theresa McEntee-author of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. I am hopping with the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop today. There are several of us- you will find the list to follow the hop at the end of my blog post.
This is the challenge photo. What does it inspire you to make?
The Ink & Inspiration Challenge is both an image and a color challenge. I was inspired by the image because the flowers in the Ranunculus Romance stamp set are very similar to the photo. The colors were also very pretty and inspirational.
I had really wanted to use the Split Card Textures Dies. I got into my zone and just started stamping. Before I knew it, this card was created!
The Stampin’ Write Markers are great for applying ink to this red rubber stamp. The images of the flowers were easy to do by using the Stamparatus. That way if I missed a spot, I could reapply the ink and stamp a second time.
One of my favorite ribbons in the whole catalog is the White 1/4″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. This ribbon can be colored to coordinate with your card. Soft Suede Ink was applied with a Blending Brush until I had the off white color.
Today I have a very cute and adorable Playing in the Rain Bundle- Fun Fold Card!

Supplies
Beside Me Stamp Set
Deckled Rectangle Dies
Layering Circles Dies
Ink: Mango Melody, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Tahitian Tide, Basic Grey and Memento Black.
Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers: Fresh Freesia, Tahitian Tide, Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight, Medium Combo (400& 500), Medium Light (700) and Bronze.
Instructions
Top Layer
Lay the 3rd from the largest Deckled Rectangle in the center of the 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inch Basic White cs. Use a pencil to lightly trace the inside of the bottom. Note: This will help with stamp placement.
Use the Stamparatus to position the stamp with the image of the man and children fishing. Stamp in Memento Ink. Also stamp an image onto a piece of full-stick sticky note paper.
Place the Deckled Rectangle Die back on the Basic White cs using the traced pencil line on the inside of the die as a guide.
Partially cut the Deckled Rectangle leaving the area with the pencil mark uncut. This is called a Partial Die Cut. Position the top clear plate at the border of the area to cut. Then run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. The die that is not under the clear plate will not cut.
Fussy cut the top of the image of the man & children on the Basic White cs and the sticky note paper. Cut off the fishing poles. These will be drawn in later. Place the sticky paper over the image.
Use a repositionable tape runner to adhere the 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 inch Basic White cs to the back of the die cut card piece. This will be the background piece.
Blending
Now for the fun part! Use the Blending Brushes and Small Blending Brushes to create the sunrise on the water.
Start by die cutting a 1 inch circle from the full-stick sticky note paper.
Use sticky note tape to create the horizon.
Use a Small Blending Brush to lightly apply some Mango Melody Ink to the area where you want the sun to rise. Then cover with the 1 inch sticky circle.
Start with the Mango Melody Ink and blend in a darker halo around the “sun”.
Then use the Small Blending Brushes to blend in Pool Party Ink followed by Coastal Cabana Ink. Use the larger Blending Brush to apply the Tahitian Tide Ink. Note: If you want the color to be as dark as my card, be patient. It takes awhile.
Remove the sticky note circle and horizon sticky note tape.
Move the “horizon” so that you can create the water. Tip: Place the sticky note tape for the horizon with a millimeter or two of the horizon showing underneath. This avoids having a white line between the sky and the water.
Apply a light layer of Mango Melody Ink under the “sun”. You may also leave a small amount of the space white.
Repeat the blending of the inks as you did for the sky. Using the small Blending Brushes, with Pool Party Ink and then Coastal Cabana Ink. Add in Bermuda Bay Ink. Use the larger Blending Brush to apply the Tahitian Tide Ink. Remove the sticky note tape.
Remove the sticky note paper from the image. Separate the background piece from the front.
Use the Blending Brushes and the inks to color in the white space on the background piece. This doesn’t have to be perfect. Color in just enough so that there is not a bright white space.
Stampin’ Blends
Use the Stampin’ Blends to color the man & children as desired. Colors used on this card are listed in the Supply List above and the Clickable Supply List below.
Use a small stamp from the FREE Thanks a Bunch stamp set to create gentle waves on the water. Waves are added to both the background and the edges of the front panel. Try the Pool Party Ink first. If you want the waves to be darker, use the Coastal Cabana Ink. Tip: less is more!
Adhere the background piece to the front of the Tahitian Tide cs card base.
Stamp the image of the flying birds in Basic Grey Ink. Note: I forgot to stamp the birds until after I had put the card together, lol!
Draw in the fishing poles using the Stampin’ Write Basic Black Marker.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the top layer to the card front. Take care to line up the edges and the outline of the people.
Sentiment
Create the sentiment by using the 3rd from the smallest Deckled Rectangle Die. By placing the die near the words, you can make a small deckled rectangle to fit just right.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment.
Voila!
