Welcome to another Stamp Review Crew blog hop!  Today, we are shining a spotlight on the fabulous set Country Home from the 2018 Holiday Catalog.  Rustic farmhouse style is very hot right now and this set is totally on trend! It is full of fantastic images and great sentiments.  Make sure you check out all of the stops in this blog hop – you wouldn’t want to miss all the awesome inspiration!

This set isn’t really my usual style.  I’ll admit I stared at it for quite awhile before diving in to create.  But, I am quite happy with the outcome!  I decided to bring back color on Crumb Cake card stock.  This time, I colored in the floral arrangement with Stampin’ Up!’s Watercolor Pencils.  I like the soft look, but I really LOVE the white colored pencil on the Crumb Cake card stock!

Hello:Contry Home - Center Stage Stamping

I stamped the pitcher in Night of Navy on Whisper White and Crumb Cake card stock.  I cut out the Whisper White one, sponged it with a little bit of Crumb Cake ink to “dirty” it up a bit and adhered it over the pitcher on the Crumb Cake panel.  I distressed the edges of the image panel to add to the rustic farmhouse feel of the card.   I punched out  a partial 1/2″ circle on either side of the card front to let the ribbon rest in.  I think the Harwood background stamp (on the card base) is a perfect compliment for this set.

That’s a wrap for me.  I am sending you on to the talented Lauren Alarid, or you can go back to the creative Mike Funke.  Either way, you are in for some fantastic projects!  Thanks for stopping by.  Join me again to put a spotlight on creativity!

  1. Beautiful card, Mary. We both seemed to be on a Crumb Cake mission. And I agree. The white colored pencil on Crumb Cake looks fabulous.
