CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF916

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge are the colors Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, and Secret Sea. And wouldn't you know it, those colors are in the Lovely Blossoms DSP, which made this card super simple!

I used the third largest Everyday Arches die to cut the floral image, but first I laid the die on the image (letting the upper leaf hang out) and lightly traced the upper curve with a pencil. Then I carefully cut around the leaf up just slightly past the pencil mark. I placed the die on the image with the leaf poking above the die so it wouldn't get cut off, and used Post-It Tape to hold everything in place while going through the SCEM*.

Both of the background DSP are also found in the Lovely Blossoms pack. After putting the card together, I thought it needed a little more Secret Sea, so some In Color Flat Pearls were added.

This truly was such an easy card to make, and only required a few products. The only stamping was the greeting from Friendly Foliage!

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - All About Greetings

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is All About Greetings - making the greeting the focal point - which was easy to do with the Words of Beauty Bundle!

To make this card, I used some new products from the upcoming May-Aug 2026 catalog which begins May 5th. There are so many things I like about this catalog, beginning with the index in back making it super easy to find things!!

The Specialty DSP used here is from the Bloom Boutique Suite on page 16 of the new catalog. I'm sorry I didn't get the camera angle right for you to see the little gold foil accents; they are beautiful but subtle.

The Blueberry Bushel words are backed by Hydrangea Hue Pearlized Specialty Paper and the butterfly was colored with Blueberry Bushel and Hydrangea Hue as well.

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 - CSF915

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge is a sketch...

...another great sketch that shows off beautiful DSP from the Brushed With Beauty pack. I picked the colors from the DSP to stamp the bloom in Calypso Coral, the flower center in Darling Duckling, and leaves in Mossy Meadow, as well as the strip of Calypso Coral cardstock between the DSP strips.
