CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Melissa CASE

Create With Stamping Friends has a new Instagram account! We'd love to have you follow us on IG. Just click the link above!


This week it's Melissa's turn to be CASE Queen for the Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop. I had a hard time choosing just one card for my inspiration, but finally chose this one:


The layout is basically the same, and I used the same stamp set for the floral image, but changed the colors and embossed the white background.
 

Since Gallery Blooms doesn't have any sentiments, I used the birthday stamps in Addressed to You. 
 

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 de Groot at Loritamarie Crafts.

CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF910

Hello, Stamping Friends, just taking a minute to announce we have a new Instagram account, and we'd love for you to follow Create With Stamping Friends there! Just click <<< that link to the left.

And now on to this week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge - the colors Azure Afternoon, Coastal Cabana, and Peach Pie.

After blending some Azure Afternoon on Basic White, I cut it with the Branching Out die, and cut another larger layer for underneath. Both were popped up on the Coastal Cabana card base.


The vase was stamped with Coastal Cabana, and the butterfly and bouquet with Memento. The butterfly and flowers were colored with Stampin' Blends, then the vase, butterfly, and bouquet were die cut. I colored a piece of baker's twine with the light Azure Afternoon Stampin' Blend to make the bow on the vase.

Vase, bouquet, butterfly, and greeting were all popped up, as well.
