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.

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Jolly July

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is Christmas in July! Gotta love thinking about winter holidays when it's sweltering outside, lol. And apologies if the photos look "off" - my camera died and I had to use my phone.

I'm using the Stitched Stocking bundle today. A 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Shimmering Stripes was adhered to the Peaceful Pine card base, then I started building the stocking. If you click on the picture, you can see more details from the die.

The main part of the stocking was cut from A Stitched Season DSP and the larger outline stocking was cut from Peaceful Pine. After stamping the stocking cuff, I added some holly leaves and berries (all in the Stitched Stocking bundle), and a ribbon loop held on with a button.

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 - CSF929

For this week's catalog CASE, I chose to loosely follow the sketch. Instead of the scalloped circle, I used the scalloped oval in the Framed Tulips bundle. I did keep the floral images at top right and lower left of the scalloped background, but went with a different color scheme.

My mother's 91st birthday is in nine days, and she loves violets, so this card is for her, along with a batch of her favorite cookies, lol. She'd rather have cookies than cake, and now I know where my cookie monster tendencies come from. 😁

The violets were die cut from Basic White, then colored with Stampin' Blends. The centers have tiny bits of Golden Glow glued behind. I brushed Peaceful Pine ink onto a scrap of white for the leaves to produce a lighter shade. The veins got a little Peaceful Pine Shimmer Brush on them and some rhinestone jewel "dew drops" were added.
