I love cherries and where we lived before the house we live in now, we used to go cherry picking. It was so much fun! Now, we have a blueberry farm nearby and each spring we pick blueberries which means blueberry pie! Anyway, today’s post is all about cherries. I used the Sweetest Cherries stamp set and the Cherry Builder Punch to create today’s card.
I started with Sweet Sorbet cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a strip of Brights 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). Next, I stamped the word “sweet” in Sweet Sorbet ink and “friend” in Memento ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. I used my Stamparatus (retired) to get a good solid image for the words and cherries. Since Stampin’ Up! no longer carries the Stamparatus and you weren’t able to get one, you can find a similar product here. I owned a Misti before I purchased the Stamparatus and it’s an excellent product.
I adhered the sentiment piece to a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock.
I stamped the cherries in Sweet Sorbet ink and then punched them out with the Cherry Builder punch. I also used the punch to cut two stems out of Early Espresso cardstock and two leaves out of Granny Apple Green cardstock. I adhered the cherries, stems and leaves in between the two words and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three 2022-2024 In Color Pearls to the front of the card and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
Supply List
Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s card. If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store.

I’m currently on an extended break. My mom’s Celebration of Life was beautiful and my sister and I are continuing to go through her very big house and decide what to do with everything. The Celebration was at my mom’s home so we didn’t want to disrupt the house too much before we celebrated her life. I will still be checking my emails and can be reached if you have any questions, want to redeem Bradley Points, etc.
I am offering Double Bradley Points for everyone who shops while I’m on my break.
Thank you so much for all the heartfelt words of encouragement and prayers.

Today’s card was made using Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper, the Sweet Citrus stamp set, Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder and the Stylish Shapes Dies. If you received my Darling Details Card Sampler, this is another version of the first card.
I started with a piece of Copper Clay cardstock for the base of my card. I cut a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock that measured 5″ x 4″ and embossed it using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. Then I cut it into three 1″ strips which gave me (3) 1″ strips and one 2″ strip. I then adhered all the strips to the front of the card.
I cut a piece of Copper Clay cardstock (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List) and layered it with a piece of Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment using Pretty Peacock ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Sweet Citrus stamp set. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut a larger circle out of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the upper corner and adhered it to the front of the card.
Supply List
Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s card. If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store.
The Specialty Plate is used with 3D Embossing Folders.
Measurements
- Copper Clay cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″
- Copper Clay cardstock: 3-1/2″ x 2-3/4″
- Copper Clay cardstock: approx. 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
