CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF 926

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge are these colors:

I stamped the fern image in Basic Gray (stamped off once) and then filled it in with Smoky Slate.

The moths were stamped in Basic Gray and colored with Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Blends. A little shimmer was added to their wings with the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush, which I forgot to list below. But I did remember to list the rhinestones, lol!

I distressed the edges of the image panel and the mat. Haven't distressed anything in a long time, and I remember now how I liked the shabby chic look way back when. 😊

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Favorite New July Online Exclusive

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is our favorite thing from the upcoming July Online Exclusives release. Well..... there were several (many) things that were vying for favorites, but I managed to narrow it down the one bundle and one specialty designer series paper. But it was a challenge, lol! So let me introduce you to the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle, and the Shimmering Stripes Specialty DSP.

The striped background was made with the Simply Scored board, making the grooves in the cardstock every 1/8" with the smaller ball end of the stylus. To mimic the grooves, I used the Shimmering Stripes Specialty DSP cut with the Stylish Shapes circle die. If you zoom in, you can see the beautiful thin lines of fine silver glitter. It's gorgeous!

The poinsettias were cut from Bubble Bath Pastel Shimmer Paper, with a little Strawberry Slush sponged on to highlight the details. Centers were cut from Golden Glow cardstock which was brushed with the Golden Glow Shimmer Brush before cutting.

The leaves and pine needles were stamped in Shaded Spruce, as was the greeting. I used the Light Bubble Bath Stampin' Blend to fill in the letters before fussy cutting it out. A few rhinestones complement the silver in the DSP.

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 - CSF925

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge is a sketch that I thought would be perfect to show off the rose in the Boutique Blossoms bundle. I stamped the rose with Calypso Coral and colored it with Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral Blends. It's part of the Bloom Boutique Suite Collection on page 16 of the new catalog.

I also use the Scalloped Blooms bundle and specialty DSP that are part of the suite. That DSP pack is so pretty with the delicate gold accents (that are hard to see in my photos). It has all the new In Colors, plus gold. 💛

The larger scallop die cut is embossed with the Beautiful Pattern 3D folder that, at the time I am writing this, is still available on the Last Chance list.
