blob isn't any kind of protocol PHP handles (see http://php.net/manual/wrappers.php).
imagecreatefromstring() expects a string of binary data, not any kind of URI.

I think you need

$uri = 'https://myweb.com/1475db94-d450-44c7-a02f-c06e9fe46a6a';
$image = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents($uri));
