Sweet Strawberry-You are Amazing!

This card was totally inspired by one of my customers, Betty, who brought me a sweet valentine. I should have taken a picture of it before I ate it. Not the card, but the chocolate candy heart! LOL

Betty’s card looked exactly like the one below, except she glued a chocolate candy heart in the center of the Stitched Shape Circle. I copied her card, but instead of the candy, I added a few strawberries-less calories! LOL I also added the greeting from the In Bloom Bundle.

Here is my card~

  • Begin with a Basic White card base 5½ x 8½. Score in landscape position at 4¼”.
  • Next cut a 4 x 5 ¼”piece of Real Red cardstock and using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine, run it through with the Tastefully Textile 3-D embossing folder. Layer to the front of the card base.
  • Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine to cut one of the Stitched Shapes Circle from Basic White cardstock.
  • Stamp the strawberries, leaves and flowers from the Sweet Strawberry Bundle and layer on the circle.  Color the inside of the flower with a Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. Attach the circle to the center of the red panel.
  • Use the Stamparatus to add the greeting in Memento Black ink.  I love this tool and it really does help get a darker image, especially when stamping on a textured image. 

Betty wrote a very sweet note to me on the inside of her card. And on the inside of mine, I added another greeting from the In Bloom Bundle and one of the flowers from the Sweet Strawberry Bundle. It really was that simple.

Thanks Betty for your thoughtfulness, it really touched my heart! I just love how stamping and crafting has allowed me to make new and wonderful friends!
