TGIF – Basket of Berries with Laurie

Happy Friday! Laurie is here with a yummy project to brighten your day, using a great mix of older and new products. I always love seeing new and inspiring product combos!

Hi there friends!  It’s Laurie here, stopping in with this week’s TGIF.  I am sure by now you have seen all the new goodies and maybe even received your orders from last week’s amazing Greetery Release.  So you will know just how amazing the Botanicuts: Strawberries Dies are first hand.  I just love all the detail created by these dies to give us the most beautiful strawberries.  

I created a simple little scene using the Create-A-Crate Dies.  After cutting out each piece, I cut the back of the crate off, leaving tabs to glue to a Postal Frames Die cut, which I used for my card front  This way  it still has a little 3D look to it, but it works great for a card front.  I tucked in 2 Just Mason Around Jars inside the crate and stamped the “Fresh Picked” Sentiment on the bottom of the crate from the same stamp set.  

After die cutting all the greenery pieces, I added in the strawberry dies to that beautiful stem.  Using pop dots, I added it to the front of the crate so those leaves and berries have some dimension.  I tucked in a few more around the crate and then added in a tag die, from Sentiment Suite Basics, and a sentiment, from Market Basket Sentiments, and finished it off with a twine bow.  With foam tape, I secured my card front to a white card base to complete the card!

I hope you are enjoying these Strawberries as much as I am!  Thank you so much for stopping in today.  Have a great day!
