Happy October from Create with Stamping Friends! We are starting off the month with a color challenge. I have to say, these colors don’t immediately scream “Fall” to me, but we are still having summer weather here in California, so I’m embracing the flowers as long as possible! I chose…
We start September with a Color Challenge at Create With Stamping Friends! Today’s color combination was truly a challenge for me. My first go-to is DSP but there is nothing with these three colors in it. I started looking through the catalog (great way to get inspiration, by the way!)…
Here’s the final posting of Create with Stamping Friends for the month of August! We have a sketch challenge today. It’s a sketch that is wonderfully versatile. I used the new-ish Online Exclusive paper, Season of Green & Gold for my card. And since most of my supplies are still…
This week at Create With Stamping Friends we have a color challenge. And I did something different this week. I didn’t use any DSP! Instead I stripped it up with cardstock of the three colors below and ended up making a very clean and simple card using Irresistible Blooms “Thank…
I had to get VERY creative with today’s card challenge! We are in the midst of moving and I’ve packed most of my Stampin’ Up! stuff. I was able to get to my DSP, though, and found that To Market fits quite nicely in our color challenge this week. I…
This week ends our CASEing the Catalog month for Create with Stamping Friends. I hope you have picked up some ideas to use the catalog samples and make them your own with just a few changes! Today’s card inspiration is found on page 103. It’s a cute, punny card made…
Here we are at Week 3 of CASEing the Catalog at Create With Stamping Friends! This week we are CASEing the race cars on page 87. It’s a cute layout with repetition, so I took that feature and used Cutest Cows for my card. Here’s the Catalog inspiration: And here’s…
Hello! We are on our second CASE the Catalog project this week at Create with Stamping Friends. This week we are taking inspiration from this sympathy card made with Unbounded Beauty: Here’s my card: I used a couple different patterns from Unbounded Beauty DSP as well. The sentiment I chose…
This month at Create with Stamping Friends, we are CASEing the Catalog. We have been given certain cards each week that we will be taking inspiration from, then putting our own spin on them. First up is on page 42 ~ this pretty aqua-toned card. I chose DSP from the…
Here we are with our last June card challenge at Create With Stamping Friends! We have a color challenge today and I’ve picked Country Flowers to show off these colors. I love the rustic look of the Country Woods Suite! Details: Copper Clay Cardstock base, 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″ folded at 4-1/4″…
This week on Create With Stamping Friends we have a sketch challenge. I started off in one direction (see below) then had to re-think the whole theme of my card when I discovered that the stamp set I used had retired! (insert forehead slap) So I switched to use Cutest…
It’s Thursday, and I’m back with Create With Stamping Friends! This week we have a color challenge. When looking at these colors, I was pretty sure I would be making a floral card. I landed on Transluscent Florals, mainly because I hadn’t used them in a while. Don’t you love…
It’s a new month and we have a new summer banner at Create With Stamping Friends! We also have a new sketch challenge. And since Father’s Day is right around the corner, I’ve chosen Take to the Sky for my card. Here’s the sketch ~ And here’s my card ~…
Hello again! It’s time for another Create with Stamping Friends challenge, this week a color challenge. I find the color challenges just a bit more difficult, simply because there are so many options that you can choose. I chose a Layers of Beauty anniversary card. Come take a look! Here’s…
This week at Create with Stamping Friends, we have a sketch challenge. I followed this sketch pretty closely, using Sweetly Scripted (Get Well) for the banner across the faux pocket. Here’s the sketch: And here’s my card: Mine is a faux pocket, but you could make this a real pocket…
