Saturday Blog Hop – Casing Lori de Groot 2025

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 from the past year. We will use the Colors and Layout of her design and recreate our version using new stamps/bundles and products!

This week we are “Casing Lori de Groot”!  I love her style!

STORYBOOK FRIENDS

Here’s how I used the colors and layers of her card to create my own version with an updated stamp set, Storybook Friends!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Peach Pie cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was embossed with the SAB Starstruck Embossing Folder (FREE with $60 purchase!)
  • The Spotlight on Nature circle was cut with the die from another SAB product, Bloom Impressions 12×12 Designer Paper.
  • The carrot patch from Storybook Friends was stamped with Memento Back Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Dark Peach Pie, Dark Lemon Lime Twist and Light Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends.  It was hand-cut around the top and added to the circle and trimmed.
  • The bunny was stamped with Memento Black Ink on scrap Basic White cardstock and colored with Light Bubble Bath, Crumb Cake Combo and Lemon Lime Twist Combo.  It was cut with the Storybook Friends Dies and added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The Storybook Friends greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 1/2 x 2 piece of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and the end cut at an angle.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the greeting.
  • A trio of Antique Pearls were added to the background for a little bling.

 

Isn’t that a sweet little card to celebrate Spring?  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!

  • The Mixed Media DSP was cut to 4 x 5-1/4 size, then water colored with Smoky Slate, Poppy Parade, Petunia Pop and Shy Shamrock Makers and a Water Painter.  Let dry.
  • On top of the water coloring, I used the same colors of Stampin’ Blends to highlight and deepen the tones.
  • A 1-1/4 x 4 strip of the Shy Shamrock Mixed Media DSP print stamped with the greeting from Mixed Labels in Memento Black Ink.  It was added across the front towards the bottom.
  • Two stems from Mixed Florals stamp set were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Shy Shamrock cardstock and cut with Mixed Florals Dies.  Thy were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Gold Twisted Thread was tied in a bow and added to the stems with a Mini Glue Dot.
  • Some Two-Tone Sparkle Gems were added to some flower centers, the leaf stems and next to the greeting for a little bling!  You know how much I LOVE these Gems!

CS180 – Storybook Friends

By | Leave a Comment

This month our Creatively Simple challenge theme is Designer Paper as the focus on our cards!

STORYBOOK FRIENDS

I admit that I wasn’t sure about this suite of products at first…the small size of the images was a little intimidating!  But after working with the set for a little bit, it actually was fun to use!  The only stamping on here is the greeting…the rest is the Designer Paper!  Made it pretty quick to pull together!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Old Olive cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 piece of the house print in Storybook Moments DSP was added to the base card.
  • A 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Pecan Pie cardstock was added on top.
  • The circles were cut from Calypso Coral, Basic Beige and Old Olive cardstock with the Stylish Shapes Dies.
  • The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on the Basic Beige circle and added to the front towards the bottom.
  • The seed packets die-cut from the Storybook Moments DSP was added to the Calypso Coral circle and adhered on the front.
  • The chipmunk die-cut from the Storybook Moments DSP was added to the Old Olive circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the circle added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, too.
  • A trio of Antique Pearls were added to the background of the Pecan Pie strip.
  • Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added above the greeting with a Mini Glue Dot.

IM371 – Hearts of Elegance

By | 2 Comments

Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges.  This week’s inspiration is some heart nail art!

HEARTS OF ELEGANCE

I get my nails done all the time, but I’ve never had artwork done on them, too!  So fun!  I decided to hand make my background using the difference colors of hearts I see on her nails!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Highland Heather cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was randomly stamped over the background with the Hearts of Elegance heart in Highland Heather Ink, Melon Mambo Ink, Summer Sky Ink, Pumpkin Pie Ink, and Azure Afternoon Ink.
  • I used 1/4 x 5-1/4 strips of the same colors of cardstock and added them across the center.
  • Be Mine was stamped with Highland Heather Ink on Basic White cardstock and cut with the larger Hearts of Elegance Die.  It was added to the center with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The smaller stitched heart was cut from Highland Heather cardstock and added next to the larger heart with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Tinsel Gems Three Pack were added to the center hearts for a little bling!

 

 

What do you think?  Did I capture the inspiration in the nail art?  I think so!  OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!

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 from the past year. We will use the Colors and Layout of her design and recreate our version using new stamps/bundles and products!

This week we are “Casing Debbie Henderson”!  Here’s her flower card from last year that I chose to CASE.

OCEAN FRIENDS

And here’s how I updated her card using the new Ocean Friends Bundle for a fun card!  I loved the colors!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Blueberry Bushel cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was added on top.
  • The 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Summer Sky 2024-26 In Color 6×6 DSP was cut with the circle from Spotlight On Nature in the center.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • On the Basic White under the open circle, the coral was stamped and stamped off with Highland Heather Ink several times.  The bubbles were stamped with Summer Sky Ink.
  • The crab outline was stamped on scrap Basic White cardstock with Blueberry Bushel Ink and the inside solid body with stamped off Blueberry Bushel Ink.  It was also colored with the light Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends on the body only.  It was cut with the Ocean Friends Die and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • A couple seaweed pieces were cut with the Dies from Summer Sky cardstock and tucked in the side of the circle.
  • The greeting from Ocean Friends was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 3/4 x 3 piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock and cut with a flag end.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • A trio of Two-Toned Sparkle Gems were added to the background (LOVE the colors on these gems!)

 

So, I matched the colors and the layout on my re-done Ocean Friends card!  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!
