Berry Blessings -- Blueberries

Each month I do a swap with some US Stampin' Up! Demonstrators. We have been doing it for years. There is a theme each month and for January, it was "2021 Sale-a-Bration" and this is my swap card for this month. I used the Berry Blessings Stamp Set plus the Berry Delightful DSP that can be earned FREE with a $100 order which can be seen on page 14 of the 2021 Sale-a-Bration Catalog which is good until the end of February, 2021. I also wanted to use the Small Bloom punch (AC page 165) that coordinates with the Sweet Strawberry Set that is in the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog on page 44.

Here are my instructions for my card:

1. The base of the card is Pacific Point card stock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle. Insert the front of the base into the embossing folder and run it through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine.

2. The second layer is Berry Delightful DSP cut at 2” x 5-1/2” and adhered to the center of the card.

3. Die-cut a 3” scalloped Granny Apple square with the Layering Squares Die.

4. Die-cut a 2-5/8” Whisper White square and ink up the blueberry stems/leaves with Granny Apple Green ink. Stamp it twice on the square.

5. Ink up the blueberry stamps with Pacific Point. Color them with the Watercolor Pencil and Blender Pen. Adhere to the scallop Granny Apple square. Put Dimensionals on the back and adhere to the top of the card front.

6. Ink up the small blooms with Granny Apple Green ink and stamp on Granny Apple Green cardstock. Punch them out with the Small Bloom Punch and put Dimensionals on the back. Place two of them near the blueberries.

7. Ink up the sentiment “Just For You” on Whisper White cardstock using Pacific Point ink. Die-cut it out with the 2” Oval Die. Die-cut a 2-1/8” Granny Apple Green oval using the Layering Ovals. Put Dimensionals on the back and attach below the layered squares.
