More Berry Blossoms Samples


  • Another Sneak peek card from my Aug 14 Fruit and Berries Class
  • Register now for the FREE Aug 7 Post Convention Open House
  • Designer Series Papers Special.  Buy 3, get 1 free
Here's another peek at my upcoming August 14 Berry Blossoms Card Class. 
This Designer Series papers are wonderful to work with.  I keep finding more and more ways to coordinate them.  And the good news is the Berry Blossoms Designer Series Papers are part of the Buy 3, Get one Free Special on Designer Series Papers going on this month!  Double click the photos for a larger view.



Now for more details on my latest edition for this class (below).This card showcases a ruffle at the bottom of the card.  It uses yet another print from the Berry Blossoms Designer Series Papers as well as the new Designer Printed Brads.  I inked the Thank you from the Elegant Thank You stamp for the sentiment.  Another tip I use to save time...  I've ordered multiples of each of the Sizzlits Dies.  That way, when I host a class, I can run mutiples of the Little Leaves Sizzlits through my Big Shot at the same time in one pass rather than cranking my Big Shot a gazillion times to make all the die cuts needed for cards.  Click on the photo for a larger size.



Here's the Receipe:



  • Stamps:  Elegant Thank You (sentiment)


  • Papers:  Calypso Coral, Berry Blossoms DSP,  Lucky Limeade


  • Inks:  Chocolate Chip (sentiment)



  • Accessories: Designer Printed Brads, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Little Leaves Sizzlits, Word Window Punch, Bird Builder Punch (leaves), Red Sticky Strip (to hold the ruffle in place), Dimensionals

    We'll I'm just about finished with my first projects using the new Holiday mini catalog preview samples that arrived earlier this week.  Watch for a post later today.  (Love being a demonstrator and getting access early to previews of new catalog products!)

    Fun Flowers and Berry Blossoms

    • Another card from my upcoming Berry Blossoms Card Class
    • Buy 3, Get 1 Free Promotion
    • Open House this week end
    Tonight's post is going to be fairly short.  My Holiday mini catalog pre-order was waiting on my door step when I got home from work tonight.  And I can't wait to finish unpacking it and playing with these wonderful new Peekaboo Frames, holiday stocking dies, quilted satin ribbon, and loads more!

    First, another card from my upcoming August 14 Berry Blossoms Card Class.  This card showcases not only another print from the Berry Blossoms Designer Series Papers, and also coordinates with the Fun Flowers Bigz L Die.  I'm so loving the vibrancy of this card.  I used the White Gel Pen to outline each of the flower petals from the Fun Flowers Bigz L Die. 




    See more Berry Blossoms projects I posted earlier showing what we will be making in this class.  More cards coming, so check back.

    Here's the recipe:

    • Stamps:  Build a Blossom (leaves) Three Little Words (Sentiments)
    • Papers:  Calypso Coral, Berry Blossoms DSP, Wisteria Wonder, Lucky Limeade
    • Inks:  Lucky Limeade (leaves)
    • Accessories: Designer Printed Brads, Basic Pearls, Fun Flowers Die, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, White gel pen, Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Eyelet Border punch, Blossom Petals Builder Punch (leaves), Modern Label Punch, Boho Blossoms Punch,

    I made a couple versions of the card, changing the sentiment and using a different color Designer Printed Brad.  Love how the 2011-2012 In Colors work together so well.
