Berry Christmas Gift Cards


Ok, so this is my last  Berry Christmas (Holiday Mini) entry.  This is a set of 3x3 Gift Cards in a Medium Cellophane bag.  Remember that the cello bags are a handy place to put gifts of cards and there is a cello bag size whether your gift set is 3x3,  5 1/2 by 4 1/4 or what ever!

  This is a very easy gift set, with card base of Bashful Blue and Soft Suede trim.   The little scalloped trim beneath the bird image is a 1 1/4 inch Scallop Square Punch that has been cut off.  It makes a cute little trim element.

 

It's almost Friday!!!

Berry Christmas Continues!


Another neat aspect of the Berry Christmas set is that it is not just for Christmas.  This 3x3 card uses Soft Suede, Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Bashful Blue and the Soft Suede Patterns Designer Series Paper.   It was a very quick flower kind of card!

So much for Hump Day!!

Berry Christmas Scrapbook


This is an 8 1/2 by 8 1/2 Berry Christmas scrapbook page.  The colors are Soft Suede, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Whisper White.  Accessories include Soft Suede Patterns Designer paper and the 3/4 inch Real Red Polka-Dot grosgrain ribbon.

Markers were used to mask part of the sentiment, with repeated stamping used. Again, another quick project using the Berry Christmas stamp set from the Holiday Mini.

As you can begin to see from this series of posts, you can purchase the set and several accessories to complete a variety of cards and projects.  More to come soon.

Happy (gulp) Monday,
Jackie

Berry Christmas tree


As promised, another Berry Christmas (Holiday Mini set) card.  In this example, the flower is used to build the Christmas Tree.  The "turtle dove" at the top is Bashful Blue.   The Real Red Polka-Dotted ribbon is positioned along one side.   The end of the sentiment was made by taking a square punch and positioning the flat end of the sentiment strip in a corner.  Add a coordinating button, punched flower and you have another fast card.  I just think that this is so cute with the little bird perched at the top.

Berry Christmas


My next series of posts will feature the Berry Christmas Set from the Holiday Mini.  This is a very simple, elegant set that makes Christmas Card production easy.

The colors for this card are Soft Suede, Certainly Celery and Real Red.   The 1/2 inch circle punch was used to punch out the berries, which were attached to the wreath.   A 2 inch piece of Real Red Polka-Dot grosgrain ribbon was attched to the card and then stapled.  Used in this way, a little ribbon goes a LONG way.  Also, you don't have to tie a bow!!  The addition of just a touch of red ribbon adds texture and coordinates with the stamped images.

Other Options:  If you want to add sparkle to this card, try the following technique:

1) Ink up your stamp. 
2) Use a sponge dauber to apply some Champagne Mist Shimmer paint to the inked stamp.
3)  Huff on the stamp to re-moisten.
4) Stamp your image.   You will notice a nice little shimmer!
5)  Clean the stamp immediately and thoroughly.

Happy Saturday,

Jackie
