CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF931

Our last CASE the Catalog Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge is the card on page 33.

I went with the Party Banners card sketch, but used some new preorder goodies from the upcoming Sep-Dec catalog. First of all, may I just say how happy I am we have a nice neutral, not-too-busy embossing folder! The Softly Woven 3D* folder is going to get a lot of use in my craft room!!!


The Basic White card base was covered with 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Pecan Pie Wood Grain Wonders DSP. Crumb Cake was used for the banner, which was then embossed with my new favorite folder. 😊It was popped up on dimensionals on the card base.


The foliage from the Elegant Leaves Bundle* were stamped and die cut. After arranging them to my satisfaction, they were glued together and then popped up on the banner. The greeting was heat embossed on Pecan Pie and also popped up. I split a piece of Gold Striped ribbon in half lengthwise, formed a couple of loops and tied them together with Linen Thread for the bow.

* Available for customer order September 1

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Coloring Inside the Lines


Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is coloring inside the lines - one of my favorite things to do! And I have a special card today that doesn't use ANY stamps or ink, only Stampin' Blends.


I started with  Basic Beige card base and added a Paradise Garden embossed background with Fresh Freesia Satin Ribbon wrapped around it. On top of that was adhered a Crumb Cake Beautifully Celebrated label. Then came the fun part!


I colored the blossoms in the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut it out. Then it was popped up on dimensionals and a Greetings For All greeting was also popped up beside it.

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 - CSF930


This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday CASE the Catalog Challenge is on page 55 of the May-Aug 2026 catalog. For this challenge, I chose to use the inspiration card colors of Pool Party, Pecan Pie, Misty Moonlight, and Old Olive.

 
 
On a Pool Party card base I popped up the 4" x 5 1/4" Lazy Daisy embossed piece on dimensionals, then adhered a 1 3/8" x 4 5/8" strip of Pecan Pie. The 1 3/8" x 4 1/4" strip of Old Olive was embossed and adhered offset.


The smallest butterfly was stamped three times and colored with Stampin' Blends, then punched out and all were added with dimensionals, as was the Misty Moonlight stamped greeting.
