My first card features the Strawberries<\/a> <\/a>Background<\/a> Stencil<\/a>. When I first saw this stencil, I knew I wanted to try a unique color combo. I googled “Strawberry Prints” and found several fun color combinations, including one similar to this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started with A2 panel of Concord & 9th Poppy Cardstock. I then used the first layer of the stencil with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink. For the second layer, I used Stormy Sky Distress Oxide Ink for the blueberries and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Ink. I let it dry for a while and the used the third layer of the stencil along Hero Arts Unicorn Pigment Ink. I found a foam blending brush worked best. I also found a pressing motion worked better than a swirling motion, especially with the pigment ink. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the sentiment, I used white embossing powder on a strip of dusty blue paper (cut at angle on one side) and heat embossed “You are the berry best” from the Sweet <\/a>Plates<\/a> <\/a>Sentiments<\/a> Stamp Se<\/a>t<\/a>. (I love all the cute sentiments in this set!) Finally a cut a strip of pink gingham paper from the Berry <\/a>Sweet<\/a> <\/a>Gingham<\/a> Paper Pad<\/a> and adhered it to the panel. I added the sentiment on top of that. I added it all to the top of an A2 card base. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love how the oxide and pigment inks paired with colored paper give a unique look to the card and allow for endless color combinations. I’m excited to try it with dye inks on white paper to get a completely different look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love the Strawberries<\/a> <\/a>Die<\/a>! For this card, I used classic red and green colors (Poppy and Evergreen cardstock from Concord & 9th) for the strawberries with a touch of gold for the seeds. For the white flowers, I added a little yellow inkblending (Buttercup from C9) to the middle before adding on the yellow centers. I added a heat embossed sentiment from the Sweet Plates Sentiments<\/a>. I adhered them all onto a Nectar panel cut from the previously released Nesting Rounded Rectangle Dies<\/a>. It all pops nicely on top of the white A2 card base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to mass produce strawberries, then them the Multiple Strawberries<\/a>-Die-n-Stencil<\/a> is for you! I used a blend of red and green inks for the strawberries and Gold Rush Lunar Paste for the seeds. (I still have another set of strawberries for another card!) Then, I diecut the Sweet Plaid Panel Die<\/a> three times, stacked the layers and glued them for dimension. Next, I created a red ombr\u00e9 inkblend over a panel and then used the Sweet Plaid Texture Die<\/a> on the panel. I topped it off with my strawberries and a sentiment from the Sweet Plates Sentiments<\/a>. This card has tons of texture and dimension but came together so quickly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My final card features this beautiful plaid patterned paper from the Berry Sweet Gingham Paper Pad<\/a>. It coordinates perfectly with the Sweet Plaid Panel Die<\/a> (which I again layered three times for dimension). The sentiment is from the Sweet Lattice Sentiments<\/a>–another beautiful and versatile sentiment set from JJ Bolton! The matching dies<\/a> make it easy to add the sentiments anywhere. I popped up some pink glittery flowers from the Strawberries Die<\/a> to add some sparkle to the card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
