Wow it's time for the next #SUOC271 challenge, and the theme for this week is Sweet things - food & drink. I just couldn't resist using the really lovely 'Sweet strawberry' bundle, which is a stampset and a punch. With strawberry season fast approaching us here in the UK I think this delightful bundle will be great for those of us that make our own jams!
The card I've chosen to make this week is a very easy to make card but I think anyone that receives it will love it all the same. So let's get started.............
Materials needed
Basic white thick cardstock
1piece - 5" x 10" scored on longside at 5" - cardbase
1piece - 4" x 4" - front of card layer
1 piece approx 3/4" x 3" - sentiment

1 piece - 4-7/8" x 4-7/8" - front of card layer
1 piece - 4-3/4" x 4-3/4" - inside of card
Scrap piece for 3 x strawberries to be punched out
Old olive cardstock
1 piece 4-1/8" x 4-1/8" - for front of card layer
Scrap piece for 3 x leaves and strawberry hulls to be punched out

Card Instructions
Fold and burnish the card base using the bone folder.
Stamp strawberry images around the edges of both the real red pieces of card using real red ink. Adhere the inside piece in the card, tear a few bits on the edges of the front of card piece and using your fingers ruffle them up a bit, this gives the card a different look and a bit of dimension too, adhere to the front of the card base.
Stamp 2 of the leaf and flower images onto the white card piece, and just a leaf in the corner section of it. Dab the corner of the clear stampin' block into the old olive ink pad not too much you only need a small amount. Now using the wink of stella mix the ink with the brush nib and colour the leaves and flowers in, gives a nice glittery blending effect. Attach this to the old olive layer using glue and then attach the whole piece to the front of the card base.
Punch out all of the elements required - strawberry in red and hulls and leaves in green. Now to stamp the images onto them all using the stamparatus....
First with scrap card punch all of the images out, then place this piece onto the stamparatus foam pad (as its a photopolymer stamp) and hold into place using the magnets, place the strawberry stamp into the cut out, close the clear plate and the stamp will attach itself lift and proceed as follows......
