Here are four delightful strawberry-themed cards to make. The ink pads used on all cards are Poppy Parade and Garden Green.
Measurements
- Base card 14.8cm x 21cm, scored in half LS at 10.5cm
- Berry blessing DSP 14.8cm x 8 cm
- Basic White card strip: 14.8cm x 6 cm, plus scraps
This card uses masking for the strawberry hulls which are stamped direct onto the white card strip, then the strawberries are stamped on top.
The third strawberry, hull and leaf are stamped then punched out from scrap card and mounted on dimensionals.
The sentiment is punched out and set onto a same punched DSP shape which was cut in half to show each side. The top card used the Tailored Tag punch, the bottom card used the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch. Any suitable sized punch can be used, or the sentiment can simply be cut to size. It is mounted using dimensionals.
Add gems, twine or other embellishments as required.
