It’s Saturday and time for our Create with Connie and Mary Blog Hop. This week our theme is “Sugar is Sweet”.  Let’s use some of the “sweet” stamps we have in our lineup on our cards today!  What will our Design Team use?  I decided to use my new Blueberry Bunches stamp set, available in the Jan-Apr Mini Catalog.

Here in Florida, we have a blueberry farm just about 10 miles away that gets a WONDERFUL crop of blueberries that you can pick your own!  A couple years ago, I picked a couple galloons and froze them to use all year long!  They were big, fat and juicy just like these!  SOOOO good in my blueberry cobbler!

BLUEBERRY BUNCHES

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Boho Blue cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was added on top.
• The 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Countryside Inn Designer Paper was added on top with a coordinating 1 x 3-3/4 Countryside Inn DSP print added to the bottom.
• The large medallion from Thoughtful Expressions Dies was cut from Basic White cardstock, then stamped with the blueberry cluster image in Memento Black Ink.  It was colored with Boho Blue, Balmy Blue, Old Olive and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The greeting from Blueberry Bunches was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Boho Blue cardstock, then cut with the label die in Thoughtful Expressions.  It was run thru again on one end to make it shorter.
• Some Silver Simply Elegant trim was looped and adhered behind the label, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A trio of 2022-24 In Color Pearls were added to the medallion.

 

I’m so happy with how this turned out!  These blueberries just look SO sweet!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
