Saturday Blog Hop – Casing Debbie Henderson 2026

By | Leave a Comment

It’s Saturday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends Blog Hop. For the next several weeks we will be “Casing the Designer”. Each week we have picked a designer and will select a card she designed. We will use the Colors or Layout of her design and recreate our version using NEW stamps/bundles/DSP!  For our first “Case the Designer” week we are “Casing Debbie Henderson”!

Here’s the card I selected from her post last year.

HOBBY HAVEN

And here is the card that I recreated using her layout and the Hobby Haven Designer Paper!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • A 1-1/4 x 5-1/2 strip of Hobby Haven DSP was added across the bottom.
  • A second 2-1/4 x 5-1/2 strip of coordinating Hobby Haven DSP was added across the top.
  • The 1/2 x 5-1/4 strip of Cajun Craze cardstock was stamped with the Simply Said greeting in Memento Black Ink.
  • An Everyday Arches was cut with the Die from Crumb Cake cardstock and added flat to the front.
  • Several die-cuts from the DSP were added to the front of the arch.
  • A trio of Cajun Craze & Gold Dots were added to the background on the arch.

Super fun reincarnation of Debbie’s original card from last year!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Stamping Friends website, then on to creative Debbie Henderson, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!

Our Creatively Simple theme this month is “Patterns”!  Stampin’ Up! has fabulous designer paper with patterns so that has been my focus this month.

HOBBY HAVEN

I decided to use Hobby Haven again this week…it is just SO simple to use some of the DSP and a die-cut image or two to make up a quick and simple card!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Petal Pink cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Secret Sea cardstock was added on top.
  • A 2-1/2 x 3-5/8 piece of Hobby Haven DSP was added in the top left corner.
  • The 1-1/4 x 5 and 1-1/4 x 2-1/2 piece of Garden Green cardstock were embossed with the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder and added to the front, leaving approx. 1/8″ border.
  • The circle die-cut was stamped with the Banner Sayings greeting in Secret Sea Ink towards the top and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • One of the Spa die-cuts was trimmed to just use four of the bottles and added under the circle on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added next to the bottles.
  • A trio of pink Dear Dots were added to the background.

 

Would be fun to include a gift card inside for a massage, wouldn’t it?  OK check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!

HOBBY HAVEN

I didn’t really know what to do with this DSP since there really isn’t a stamp set that “coordinates” with it…just a greeting set.  But I had fun cutting out a couple images and using one of the die-cuts for this card!  Reading is one of my favorite hobbies!

 

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • A 3 x 4 piece of Hobby Haven DSP was added to the bottom.
  • The medallion from Beautifully Celebrated Dies was cut from Basic Beige and brushed with Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana Inks.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The lamp and books were cut from the DSP and the coffee is one of the die cuts.  They were added to the medallion with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added next to the lamp.
  • The Banner Sayings greeting was stamped with Coastal Cabana Ink on 1/2 x 2 piece of Basic White cardstock and the end cut at an angle.
  • A trio of 2024-26 In Color Flat Pearls were added to the background on the medallion.

 

SUPER easy to pull together and perfect card for a book lover!  OK check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
