Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

Yes, my first thought was flowers – but, I challenged myself to create a not so feminine card with these colors –

This turned out soo fun! Just as fun as this silly sentiment which reminds me of my hubs!

The sentiment is from the Words & Wishes stamp set. The set contains several wonderful words, but this one is just not your everyday sentiment.

The whimsical background was stamped in alternating colors using the Balloon Festoon stamp. It creates a wonderful, fun background.

The background on the sentiment is from the Exciting Times stamp. It is a favorite of mine!

I succeeded in creating a non flower card suitable for anyone, especially your favorite person.

Check out the other Design Team’s use of these colors this week on our Create with Stamping Friends blog. You’ll see some fabulous ideas! Join us for the challenge too if you’d like!

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Weekly, we share various themes to inspire your creativity. This week, we are creating cards with foods!

Honey is a food, right?

I hand cut these cute little honey bears from the Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper. Then I started pulling card stock to see what matched the bears.

Calypso Coral was listed on the paper pack. And I thought the new Crisp Cantaloupe and Golden Glow matched too!

To add some interest, I stamped the Golden Glow with honey combs. For the Crisp Cantaloupe, I ’embossed’ it with the Eyelet Blooms Die* using the Impressions Plate. *The Eyelet Blooms Die is a specially priced Product of the Month that can be yours with a minimum purchase.

The sentiment is from the Bee My Valentine stamp set. Couldn’t be more perfect for this card!

Be sure to go around and check us all out to see how we used the theme this week! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Next up is Melissa Davies, back is Cindy Elam. Keep going to see all of us.

See you next week with more great inspirations!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

Classic layout for me!

I am playing with the new In Colors and today it is Hydrangea Hue!

And a new bundle, All Aflutter, stamp and punch bundle. It is soo sweet! I stamped these butterflies on the lighter side of two tone card stock. After, I added some details with the new White Gel Pens (these are awesome I must say). Then, I punched them.

I featured the Bloom Bouquet Designer Series Paper for the layout rectangles here. This paper is really pretty with gold accents on one side of the patterns.

Hydrangea Hue is a pretty blue. I’ll enjoy using it and pairing it with our other colors. What do you think of it?

Favorite New Catalog Designer Series Paper

May 2, 2026 · 1 Comment

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Weekly, we share various themes to inspire your creativity. This week, we are creating cards with our favorite new catalog Designer Series Paper.

We haven’t had a nice black and white pattern paper in a while. I’m really drawn to this new Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper.

I really like this sheet that is a variety of vases with flowers and greenery.

I didn’t get my Stampin’ Blends in yet, so I used the Blender pens and the ink pads to color the vase and flowers. It turned out very pretty! Almost better than Stampin’ Blends! Ha!

I did hand cut the flower image after coloring it.

I wanted the pattern paper to be a bit softer, so I vellum to the rescue! But, only a partial softness using a die from the Sweet Words & Labels Dies.

For a little bling, I used the Rhinestone Basic Jewels, a true classic, and cardmakers staple!

Be sure to go around and check us all out to see how we used the theme this week! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Next up is Melissa Davies, back is Cindy Elam. Keep going to see all of us.

Favorite New 2026 In Color

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

We share various themes to inspire your creativity. This week, we are creating cards with our favorite new 2026 In Color.

All the colors are very nice this year. I’d say, I am gravitating towards Peaceful Pine –

I used a simple layout featuring the 2026-2028 In Color Designer Series Paper and a great new punch, the Rounded Rectangle Punch. It is in a bundle with the Exciting Times stamp set.

For the flagged pieces, I punched two tone card stock using the middle of the Three Banner Punch.

Grad 2026

April 23, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

For some reason, I saw ‘graduation’ is this layout. So I ran with it –

I started with the Reason To Smile stamp set for the two sentiments. For the GRAD, I taped off part of the letters before inking it up, removed the tape, and stamped.

I added the ’26’ from the Last Chance, Alphabet a La Mode Dies. These are a must have set of dies as they include letters and numbers!

The two squares were placed on a full card of pattern paper from Regal Distressed Patterns Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Since this starts as a 12″ strip, I added a pocket for a gift card! I also added a piece of Basic White for a little thickness and support.

The tassel was one I had in my stash for grad cards, lol!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

I love to let the pattern paper / Designer Series Paper to do the work for me!

This Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper was great for this color challenge! A couple of us used this pattern paper this week!

I really like this larger swooping banner die from the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder. It is a generous size and looked great with the bold thank you sentiment from the coordinating stamp set.

Tying in the Crumb Cake, I die cut leaves from the same set to surround the sentiment. A little twine bow was the nice addition for some added texture.

All About Greetings

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

We share various themes to inspire your creativity. This week, we are creating cards with greetings as the focal point.

Since graduations are around the corner –

I combined the Reason To Celebrate stamp set with the Party Alphabet Dies creating a fun fold.

And, fully opened –

I stamped repeatedly the word CONGRATULATIONS on both the front, and, the inside. When the front is folded, CON shows and the left, ans RATULATIONS shows on the right! Yes, purposely done!

Pretty cool, huh? Simple, but stunning!

Be sure to go around and check us all out to see how we used the theme this week! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

I took the sketch and flipped it for my card this week –

This gorgeous pattern paper is the Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper. I chose one pattern and created a continuous scene. The large hand cut flower is also from the same piece. I used it as the focal point.

I chose to go with no sentiment here. This card was bold enough and did not need one. The style would be appropriate for lots of occasions or a simple hello!

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

Great spring colors!

These are some new products that were recently released : Paradise Garden Bundle and the Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper.

They are quite lovely I must say!

The coordinating dies have this inner hexagon shape. After I stamped and die cut it, I placed it on Calypso Coral card stock and simply trimmed around it for the layered piece. Looks die cut too!

I felt the card was a little plain when I finished. I didn’t have any white ribbon, so I looped a strip of vellum behind the sentiment. Done! It worked perfectly!

Awesome layout this week!

This is how I used it –

A fancy card from my usual style!

This is the Brushed With Beauty Suite of products. They are all soo pretty!

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

We are back to our different themes.

This week, our designs feature Easter bunnies and friends.

I just had to play with these cute little bunnies again! This time with a tone on tone color palette. I used both regular card stock along with two tone card stock for the little bunnies.

I used the Beautiful Patterns 3D Embossing Folder on the card base for a little added interest. It broke up the white nicely.

Be sure to go around and check us all out to see how we all CASed the same designer! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

I went with a simple design that turned out to be a little more challenging –

I had this Friendly Foliage Bundle that I had not used (gasp) – so I used it for the Highland Heather focal point.

After I die cut the image, I cut a window in the Very Vanilla card base. I added a piece of vellum over the window, behind the focal point.

It still needed a little something, so I added a piece of Cloud Cover card stock behind the vellum. For me, that is what it needed! Just a subtle shade of Cloud Cover.

I stamped the sentiment from the bundle. The Cloud Cover Moody Palette Glossy Dots just brought in the colors nicely.

What do you think?

CASing Connie Babbert 2026

March 14, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

We are bringing back our much loved, CASing (Copy And Share), our own designers series for a few weeks. We pick a card from the previous year, use the same layout and colors, and recreate the card with current stamps and dies.

This week, we are CASing Connie Babbert of Inkspired Treasures.

I really liked the colors and the layout in this card from Connie –

I chose to feature a different holiday, Easter –

These little bunnies are the sweetest! I stamped them in Basic Gray on Pretty in Pink, Balmy Blue, and Peach Pie. I used the new Stampin’ Positioner to stamp after I die cut. Personally, I go back and forth about stamping then die cutting, or die cutting then stamping. The second only works with a positioner to line images up.

I matched the bunnies to the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper. Such cute Easter products!

Be sure to go around and check us all out to see how we all CASed the same designer! We also love to read comments too. Take a few minutes to say HI, or why you liked our project for the week.

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

This is the new pattern paper, Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper. It really is soo sweet!

The tag and stamp are from the coordinating Filled With Sweetness Bundle. The other dies in this set are wonderful too!

I am always drawn to dies with bows. I was excited to see this cute little bow in this set. So much easier to tie, lol!

CASing Melissa Davies 2026

March 7, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Welcome stampers!

We are a group of stampers who get together weekly in blog form to create with a theme each week. This is our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

This week, we are CASing Melissa Davies of Rubber FUNatics. This card caught my eye –

I was interested in creating a St. Patrick’s Day card so I chose this design.

Here is my take on her cute card –

I used a couple different stamps sets : Seasonal Celebrations and Good Luck, both are a must for St. Patrick’s Day cards.

I stamped the shamrock on Soft Sea Foam to mimic the two tone stamped sweater with her card.

The sentiment was stamped on a die cut tag from the Filled with Sweetness Dies. The twine (sort of) cover the hole in the tag.

I glued a few Loose Gold Sequins to the card for a little flair.

Simply adorable!

Here is this week’s new color challenge to spark your creativity –

I took the pattern paper approach with these colors this week –

I used two different papers here : Love Notes Mix & Match Designer Series Paper and Pleasant Patterns Specialty Designer Series Paper. I added the solid Peach Pie to break up the patterns and ground the sentiment.

These birds are the cutest!!!! These are from the Cutest Crew Dies. I used the bundle here for this card.

To ground the birds, I added grass from the Easter Basket Dies.

Finishing off the card are these sweet little Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.

This card will brighten up anyone’s day!

Check out the other Design Team’s use of these colors this week on our Create with Stamping Friends blog. You’ll see some fabulous ideas! Join us for the challenge too if you’d like!
