Berry Blessings

Berry Blessings-Wishing you the Berry Best

There are few things that I like better than free stamps and right now during our Sale-A-Bration event free stamps is the name of the game.

One of my favorite items in the SAB (short for Sale-A-Bration) catalog is the Berry Blessings stamp set and the Berry Delightful Designers Series Paper pack, which can be yours FREE when you make a $100 purchase.

The Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper pack really is delightful and the hints of water-coloring scattered throughout the patterns and the variety of berries is so welcoming that it is sure to be a spring favorite.

My card today was created with the Pacific Blue Plaid and the berries from the reverse side. It truly was an quick and easy card.

  • Begin with a Pacific Point card base 4 ¼ x 11. Score in landscape position at 5½”
  • On a 4 x 5¼” piece of white cardstock, stamp the outline of the leaves and blueberries from the NEW Berry Blessings stamp set in memento black ink on the upper portion of the cardstock.
  • Cut a 3 x 4” piece of the blue plaid paper from the Delightful Berry Designer Series paper pack and then cut off ½”, flip it over to reveal the coordinating side.
  • Layer the larger plaid piece on the bottom of the white cardstock and then adhere the ½” coordinating piece on the top edge of the plaid. Attach this layer to the Pacific Point card base.
  • Using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine cut the largest circle from the Stitched Shape Dies with white cardstock and stamp the greeting on the lower middle of the circle. 
  • Stamp a leave and some berries on the circle and then cut out the largest circle from the Layering Oval Dies in Pacific Point cardstock.  Layer the two together.
  • Using some Stampin’ Dimensionals attach the circle to the card front
  • Next cut the largest circle from the Layering Oval Dies in Pacific Point cardstock. 
  • For the inside cut a 4 x 5 ¼” layer of White cardstock and stamp a leaf and some berries using the same supplies as the card front.
  • Stamp the greeting in Memento black ink and your creation is complete!

A Berry Simple Thank You!

Today’s card is a sneak peek at the NEW Sweet Strawberry stamp set featured in the JJ2021 mini catalog and the Berry Blessings stamp set featured in the Sale-a-Bration brochure. Berry Blessings. The Berry Delight Designer Series paper pack and the Berry Blessing set is FREE with a $100 purchase beginning on January 5, 2021.

I created this card for my daughters totally “sweet” roommate to thank her for some delicious homemade granola. It is always a blessing with your children have great friends!

  • Begin with a Pacific Point card base 5½ x 8½”. Score in landscape position at 4¼”.
  • Cut a 2 x 5½” strip of the Berry Delightful Designer Series Pack and cut again at 1½”.  You should have a 1½” and a ½” strip.
  • Flip the ½” strip to coordinate with the larger strip and adhere across the center of the card.
  • Using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the Layering circle dies, cut a scallop circle from Night of Navy cardstock and a plain circle from White cardstock. Adhere the white circle to the Night of Navy.
  • Using the Sweet Strawberry bundle stamp the strawberry in Real Red, the outline of the strawberry and the leaves in Memento Black and the solid leaves in Granny Apple Green and punch out using the Strawberry Builder Punch.
  • TIP: I made a template for the Strawberry Builder Punch and placed the template in my Stamparatus. Then I matched up the desired images using the template. Once I had my stamps aligned with the template, I used a piece of white cardstock to punch out all images. Then one at at time I placed my punched images back into the template and stamped with the desired color. I found this method easier and quicker the traditional stamp and punch. Another advantage to stamping this way is that you waste less cardstock every time you punch.
  • Layer the strawberries and leaves on the white circle and the circles onto the strip of designer series paper.
  • Stamp the Thank You sentiment in either Night of Navy or Memento Black ink.
  • For the inside add a 4 x 5 ½” layer of white cardstock and stamp the sentiment in Pacific Point ink. 
  • Using the berries from the Berry Blessings set, stamp the outline in Memento Black and the solid in Pacific Point ink.  

This was a very easy thank you card that took no time at all. I love the way these two sets pair perfectly together. The Sweet Strawberry set will be available for purchase beginning January 5th. Also start making you list, for those FREE Sale-A-Bration sets! If your online order is less than $150, please use the Host Code: SM7SJPZZ
