Strawberry Hugs with Laurie

Hello crafty  friends!  It’s Laurie Willison here! Welcome to the clean and simple side of The Greetery!  I have a card to share today that was SO fun to make, with a bold pop of color and an easy sentiment.

I am so in the mood for summer which makes me think of growing all the things in the garden, including yummy strawberries!  I had to pull out the BontaniCuts Strawberries die for the occasion. 

To create this card, I die cut all the pieces in the Botanicuts Strawberry Die Set.  Using a white card base, I layered on a Postal Frames panel, also in white card stock.  Adding in the sentiment from Arched Sentiments, kept this  clean and simple card very clean.  I love how this works for several occasions!  To finish the card, I layered on the berries inside the arched sentiment and one little one, off to the side.  I added in a bow too, from The Sweetest Frames Die Set,  just for some extra color!

There are lots of ways to add more detail!  

• Add in a background stamp or stencil.  
• Use coordinating patterned paper to add in color to match your focal point.  You can add many of The Greetery Florals here instead of strawberries!
• Add in a few more strawberries around the card front.

I am so glad you stopped by today and I hope you enjoyed today’s project!  If you are inspired to create a clean and simple card, please tag me when you share over on Instagram! I love to see all your creations!
