Stampin’ Blends: Light and Dark Granny Apple Green and Dark Daffodil Delight
Cardstock:  Poppy Parade– two pieces; one piece cut to 8 ½” x 5 ½” and scored at 4 ¼” and one piece cut to 3 ¼” x 3 ¼”
Basic White – four pieces; one piece cut to 4” x 5 ¼”, one piece cut to 1” x 3 ½”, one piece cut to 2 ½” x 3 ½” and one piece cut to 3” x 3”
Designer Series Paper (DSP):   Berry Delightful (see photo for pattern used) – two pieces; one piece cut to 4” x 5 ¼” and one piece cut to ¾” x 4”
Accessories:  Adhesive of choice, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Blending Brush, Pick-A-Banner Punch, Strawberry Builder Punch, sticky notes, ¼” White Crinkled Seam Binding, Mini Glue Dots

 Directions:

 Adhere the ¾” x 4” piece of DSP to the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of Basic White Cardstock.  Adhere this to the inside of the card.  Adhere the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of DSP to the card front.  Use Memento Black ink to stamp the outline strawberry image onto the bottom portion of the 2 ½” x 3 ½” piece of Basic White (put the top of the strawberry toward the bottom of the cardstock so it will fit correctly into the punch).  Use Poppy Parade ink to stamp the solid inside stamp of the strawberry onto the outline strawberry image.  Punch out using the Strawberry Builder Punch.  Use Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the strawberry stem outline (with the stem facing to the left) on the remaining portion of the 2 ½” x 3 ½” piece of Basic White cardstock.  Use Granny Apple Green ink to stamp the solid portion of the stem onto the outline.  Punch out using the Strawberry Builder Punch. Adhere the stem to the top of the strawberry image and set aside.  Use Memento ink to stamp the flower and leaf image onto a sticky note being sure all three flowers are at the top of the sticky note so they will have adhesive on the back.  Fussy cut out the three flowers to use as a mask.  Use Memento ink to stamp the flower and leaf image onto the piece of 3” x 3” Basic White Cardstock.  Be sure to leave enough room for the strawberry.  Cover the three flowers with the masks which were cut from the sticky note.  Ink a blending brush with Balmy Blue ink and brush the ink onto the 3” x 3” piece of Basic White to create a halo effect around the image, darker in the middle and lighter toward the outside..  It is okay that the ink will cover the leaf portion of the stamp.  Be sure to extend the ink toward the bottom so it will surround the strawberry when it is put in place.  Remove the masks from the flowers.  Color in the leaves using Light and Dark Granny Apple Green.  Adhere the strawberry in place using the photo for placement.  Tie a ribbon using the ¼” Crinkle Seam Binding and use Mini Glue dots to adhere it at the top of the strawberry.  Adhere this piece to the 3 ¼” x 3 ¼” piece of Poppy Parade cardstock.  Use the Pick-A-Banner Punch to punch one end of the 1” x 4” piece of Basic White cardstock.  Use Memento ink to stamp the “Just for You” sentiment onto the banner.  Adhere this to the bottom of the 3 ¼” x 3 ¼” piece of Poppy Parade cardstock.  Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere this whole piece to the card front.  This makes a great Thinking of You or Birthday card!
