Welcome to Create with Stamping Friends Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Debbie and I will pick a theme for our simple cards. This month the theme is “Foodie”.

BLUEBERRY BUNCHES
Well, this card turned out a little more involved than I intended because of the hand-cutting! But it really isn’t too hard, so I’m using it for my Creatively Simple Challenge this week!

- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Balmy Blue cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock is embossed with the Eyelet Embossing Folder.
- Two sizes of the Spotlight on Nature Dies were cut from Lemon Lolly cardstock and added to the Basic White embossed layer, then the sides trimmed off to fit.
- The Blueberry Bunches images were stamped with Gray Granite Ink on Basic White cardstock, colored with Balmy Blue Combo and Lemon Lime Twist Combo and Light Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. They were hand-cut and added to the circles with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Hello There from Blueberry Bunches was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 3/4 x 2 Balmy Blue cardstock and the end cut at an angle. It was added to the front.
- A trio of blue Tinsel Gems Four Pack were added to the background.
- Some Wink of Stella was added to the blueberries.

I love the circles in the Spotlight on Nature Dies…and they worked perfectly with this stamp set! Check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
