CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF891

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge is a sketch with a cute little tag. I used a lot of products from the Traditions of Christmas Suite Collection*, plus a new embossing folder that will be available Nov. 4th when the new Online Exclusives become available!

I stamped the background image from Christmas Greenery using Old Olive stamped off once, and then embossed it with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder. Getting the image to the two edges meant it overlapped in the middle, but I knew it would be covered by the tag and greeting. A Patterned Tags die was used to cut the DSP tag, and the included bow die was used to cut the velvet paper. The circle is also cut from velvet paper.

The greeting was stamped in Old Olive and fussy cut to fit on the circle. The tag, circle and greeting are all popped up on dimensionals. The red sparkling sequins are also part of the suite. (I loves the shiny stuffs!)

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Neutral Fall Colors

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is neutral Fall colors, so no bright yellow, orange, or red allowed. Grabbing inspiration from the Neutrals color collection, I chose Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, and Early Espresso. Doesn't get much more neutral than that, right? Add in the Basic Beige DSP and there you have it. 😂

Stamped the leaves from Gathering Moments using sponge daubers to apply the ink to the stamps so the details would show better, then cut with the coordinating dies. The acorn has Pecan Pie and Early Espresso applied with daubers. The greeting was cut from Early Espresso using the Words For The Season dies. Antique Pearls add just a subtle touch of shine.

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 - CSF890

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge are the colors Basic Beige, Crushed Curry, and Old Olive.

I just got the Lovely Florals stamp set when it was on sale last month. I had been eye-balling it for a while, and the sale pushed me off the fence. Mainly, I wanted it for the grid image and the large hello, but the flower is absolutely gorgeous, and I knew it would be perfect for today's theme. Besides, I got to color! 😊

So, how did I get Crushed Curry, when we don't have a Stampin' Blend in that color? Another demo has figured out that if you blend Dark Darling Duckling and Dark Daffodil Delight it makes Crushed Curry - brilliant!

The grid was stamped and heat embossed in gold on the Basic White background, then adhered to the base. It's really subtle, but the banner was stamped in Basic Beige at the top of the greeting panel. After adding the greeting, it was matted on Old Olive and popped up on dimensionals. The flower was fussy cut and popped up as well. I didn't think the card needed any embellishment since the gold grid added some shine.
