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.
