CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Red & Green

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is Red and Green which, of course, brings Christmas to mind. 🎄🎅 Right now the only Christmassy bundle I have (that isn't retired) is one called Peace on Earth, which will be coming in the Sep-Dec 2025 holiday catalog.

The suite includes DSP and Specialty Paper (not shown here), ribbon, self-adhesive embellishments, and the pretty Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder. I love it! I used the embossing folder on the Granny Apple Green background, the dove dies, olive branches, and the two label dies for the greeting and mat behind the greeting.

CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF877

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge inspiration is found on page 114 of the catalog. I liked the layout of the card, but they used Petunia Pop, and I chose Strawberry Slush.

Strawberry Slush 2025-2027 In Color DSP was adhered to the Strawberry Slush card base first. Instead of brayering ink over Wood Textured Specialty Paper like they did, I chose to go the easy (spelled l-a-z-y) route and used Flower Garden Foils. 😉

The four rectangles were adhered to a Strawberry Slush mat and popped up on the card base. The greeting was stamped and die cut with a Spotlight on Nature die, and popped up over the rectangles. After coloring and die cutting the flower, I cut a couple more leaves from Granny Apple Green to add behind the flower. They were all popped up over a folded piece of Strawberry Slush ribbon.
