I am feeling spoiled with all the new products in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalogue! Add the freebies in the SALE-a-bration brochure (starts with a $90.00 purchase) and we have no excuse to sit around and ponder everything going on in the world at the moment!
My card today was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week! Sometimes I struggle to do ‘simple’ but the designers over at FMS knows how it is done and each week there is a new clean and simple sketch challenge!
Clicking on my images will take you to the cart/supply list for this card! Remember you can earn SALE-a-bration freebies!
Disclaimer! I use my sewing machine for the most part only with papercrafts but I suggest keeping a separate needle for paper crafting if you are a Jack of all trades!
Start with a Basic White card base trimmed to 14.5cm x 29.7cm and scored at 10.5cm and 21cm. Fold to create a fun fold card. Trim patterned paper to fit the card front (14.5cm x 8.7cm). The Sweet Strawberry set is a two-step stamp set and while I found it easy to stamp with an acrylic block (Block C) you can used Stampin’ Up!’s Stamparatus for perfect alignment. Stamp and punch two strawberry stems and two strawberries. For this specific challenge I stitched three lines in Golden thread and added a sentiment from the Many Messages Bundle (heat embossed on to Basic Black cardstock).
SALE-a-brations runs until the end of February 2021! Don’t miss out!
