Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Berry Burst Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" of tiny light purple and pink circles scattered all over white background design from Bright & Beautiful 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper
-1-1/2" x 3-1/2" of Berry Burst Cardstock
- 1" x 2-1/2" of Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock
- 1" x 2-1/2" of Old Olive Cardstock
Pick out the largest die from the Stitched With Whimsy Dies. Put it on top of the Bright & Beautiful Designer Paper rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered on the paper. Run through the machine.
Note: This die doesn't cut anything out. It just adds some stitching.
As you are ready to stamp using the Sweetest Cherries Set, place the cardstock or designer paper on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the sentiment of choice from the Sweetest Cherries Set on an appropriate size block. Ink it up with the Berry Burst Ink Pad. Stamp it in the lower right corner of the horizontal, stitched designer paper.
Adhere the stamped and stitched designer paper to the front of the Berry Burst card.
Mount the solid, whole cherry image from the Sweetest Cherries Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Berry Burst Ink Pad. Stamp it on one end of the strip of Berry Burst cardstock. Re-ink the stamp with Berry Burst Ink and stamp it again on the other end of the Berry Burst strip. Leave lots of room between the stamped images.
Unlock the Cherry Builder Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide one of the stamped cherries into the punch and get it centered in the cherry punching area. Punch. Repeat with the other cherry. Leave the punch unlocked.
Slide the thin Old Olive strip into the unlocked Cherry Builder Punch so you'll punch out a stem. Punch out another stem from the other edge of the Old Olive strip. Leave the punch unlocked.
Mount the solid leaf image from the Sweetest Cherries Set on Block A, Ink it up with the Lemon Lime Twist Ink Pad. Stamp it on one end of the strip of Lemon Lime Twist.
Slide the stamped leaf image into the unlocked Cherry Builder Punch and get it centered in one of the leaf punching areas. Punch.
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the punched out cherries, stems, and leaf on the front of the card to figure out spacing and placement.
When happy with the spacing and placement, adhere the left cherry in place using Stampin' Seal. Adhere the right cherry in place using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Adhere the stems in place using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen.
Adhere the leaf in place using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Cut an 8" piece of the Lemon Lime Twist ribbon from the Ribbon Duo Combo Pack.
Tie a small bow in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon bow in place at the top of the stems on the card front as shown.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up a large Moody Mauve dot from the sheet of 2023-2025 In Color Dots making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the upper right corner of the card front.
