August 6, 2026 By Connie | Leave a Comment

It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! This week is a soft color palette for our challenge.

SCALLOPED BLOOMS

I’ve been wanting to do a flower card with layers of the scallops. Today’s challenge was a perfect time! The background Splashes of Sparkle DSP (unfortunately just retired) has lots of shimmer and shine!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Basic Beige cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Splashes of Sparkle DSP (now retired) was added to the background (love the metallic finish!)
The largest scallop used was cut from Daffodil Delight, the next two smaller scallops from Bubble Bath cardstock and the center from Daffodil Delight cardstock. They were assembled together and adhered to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The stem is a 1/4″ Strip of Basic Beige cardstock and the leaves were die-cut from Basic Beige cardstock. They were added under the scallop flower.
The greeting from Scalloped Blooms stamp set was stamped on 3/4 x 3 Basic White cardstock with Basic Black Ink and the end cut at an angle. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The pink Dreamy Flowers Embellishments were added to the center, greeting and the background.

So shimmery in real life! OK, check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.

IM435 – Scalloped Blooms

Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a happy birthday poster!

SCALLOPED BLOOMS

Actually I was kind of stumped with this inspiration…I don’t have any current cake, balloon or present stamp images! But then I remembered the Bee Builder Punch body kind of looks like a balloon! Bingo!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Blueberry Bushel cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
I made a rainbow ink pad using reinkers to stamp the Scalloped Blooms Happy Birthday image with a rainbow of colors in the background of my 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock. I didn’t have any baby wipes, so I used a paper towel (a baby wipe would make the colors brighter!), spritzed it with water and added 4 drops each of Daffodil Delight, Blueberry Bushel, Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade reinkers. It was added to the front of the base card.

A 1-3/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock was stamped towards the right side with the Scalloped Blooms happy birthday greeting in Basic Black Hybrid Ink. It was added across the front towards the bottom.
The body from the Bee Builder Punch was punched from Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, Blueberry Bushel, Poppy Parade and Daffodil Delight cardstocks, then added in a cluster to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The White Baker’s Twine Essentials was cut into five 3″ strings and adhered with a Stampin’ Dimensional under the bottom balloon. Some more white Baker’s Twine was tied in a bow and added to the balloon base with a Mini Glue Dot.
A White Gel Pen (love that we are carrying these again!) was drawn on the balloons for the highlight.
A trio of white Sunset Sparkle Sequins were added to the background around the greeting.

I think I improvised pretty well with my balloon bouquet, don’t you? OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!

Reinkers: Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Blueberry Bushel, Highland Heather

BOUTIQUE BLOSSOMS

I resisted this bundle on my first preorder, but after looking at my current stamp sets, I realized that I really didn’t have a lot of current flower sets! This bundle has both stamp images and die-cut flowers…so I love that!

Stampin’ Details:

The large Boutique Blossoms flower was cut from Poppy Parade and the two smaller flowers from Daffodil Delight, the leaf branches from Mossy Meadow using the Boutique Blossoms Dies. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The greeting from Scalloped Blooms stamp set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and cut withe the little Scalloped Blooms Die.
Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and the greeting added on top, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A trio of red Dear Dots were added to the background.

I love altering my DSP this way…I can make it any color! OK, check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
