Thank You Berry Much: Fresh Fruit Card Set Part Three

The third installment of our Fresh Fruit Card Set highlights the strawberry image. The strawberries seem to cascade down the front.

The layout and directions for this card are very similar to the Peachy Keen Thank You Card. First cut all of your paper. You will need Emerald Envy, Fruit Stand DSP, Whisper White, and Watercolor Paper.

Card Base
Emerald Envy
5-1/2” x 8-1/2”; scored at 4-1/4”

Punch the DSP Strip with the Triple Banner Punch on one end.

The thank you sentiment area is masked first with a strip of sticky note 3/4" by 4". Cut your sticky note to at least 4" so some overhangs each edge. This helps secure your watercolor paper to your work surface.

Stamp the strawberry image with Real Red down the left side of the watercolor paper. Then stamp the strawberry image with Watermelon Wonder down the right side of the watercolor paper, leaving room for the banner.

Stamp the leaf image with Emerald Envy ink above each Real Red strawberry and with Pear Pizzazz above each Watermelon Wonder strawberry. Once the ink is dry remove the sticky note mask and stamp thank you with Basic Black Archival ink.

Adhere the DSP strip banner in the upper right corner of the watercolor paper. The banner strip will be longer than the watercolor paper. The DSP strip will be longer than your card base. Allow the glue to dry. Then trim the excess. Cutting the strip longer ensures a clean edge.

Adhere the watercolor paper to the Emerald Envy card base.

On the inside of the card, I stamped the strawberry image in the lower right corner, leaving the rest blank for a personalized message. None of the On Stage samples showed the insides of the cards, so all of the insides are my own design.

Here is another strawberry color combination. The left strawberry is Watermelon Wonder ink with Emerald Envy ink. The right strawberry is Flirty Flamingo ink with Pear Pizzazz ink.

I hope you give this summertime strawberry thank you card a try. I would love to see what you make!

Stay tuned for more Fresh Fruit cards Monday.

Thanks for stopping by!
