Stamp Review Crew - Country Flowers


Welcome to the Stamp Review Crew's Country Flowers edition! The "Crew" is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world who pick a stamp set or bundle to highlight on the first and third Mondays of each month, with a bonus hop if there is a fifth Monday. If you landed here from Jay's blog, welcome! There are six of us today.


I seriously can't get enough of this Country Flowers bundle! There are 13 stamps and 15 dies that coordinate, and so many combinations!


I wanted to use all the containers, greenery, and flower images, so I had to squeeze them onto a larger card by using a Memories & More 4 1/4" x 6 1/4" card base.


I love that the Dotted Circle 3D folder is huge and easily accommodated the larger format for the embossed background.


That's all I have to share for today, so click "Next" to see what Deb created, or "Previous" to visit Jay again. Thanks for stopping by!

CSF Saturday Hop - Jive Five


Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is to use all five new In Colors on one card!

This was so easy to do, starting with the Thoughtful Journey DSP and Garden Meadow arch die. Instant lovely floral background! The arch was cut Summer Splash and embossed, then adhered to the DSP and card base.


The Country Flowers dies provided the leaves and blooms, with a greeting from Country Birdhouse on the Happy Labels Pick a Punch banner. And, of course, In Color Shimmer Gems added the sparkle!

CSF Saturday Hop - "Must Have!"

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is our favorite new catalog bundle! Right now my fave is the Wildflower Designs bundle. I love the dainty little flowers and the sentiments, and the dies that coordinate!


I also love the Wildly Flowering DSP that is part of that suite. You know I do love me some blue! The elongated hexagonal frame was die cut from Night of Navy, and all the stamping was done with Night of Navy, as well. It just coordinates so beautifully with the Misty Moonlight DSP.


The flower was stamped on a scrap of Basic White, and then stamped again without re-inking on the inner hexagon for a misty effect. After die-cutting the flower, it was colored with Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends and a baker's twine bow (colored with the same blend) was tied before popping it up on dimensionals. A simple fussy cut greeting finished the card.

That's all for today - see you next Saturday! Up next is Libby Fens at Libby Stamps. Or click the "back" button to go back to Lori at Loritamarie Crafts.
