Berry Sweet Basket 2 Ways

Today I'm sharing two cards that feature the Berry Sweet collection from Scrapbook.com and the berry basket two ways. While I created these cards and assembled the adorable strawberries and baskets I was taken down memory lane! As a child growing up in southeast Missouri, May was always strawberry month. It was also my birthday month so my Mom always made me a strawberry cake of some sort. We also grew our own strawberries and I remember the sweet joy of eating as many of them as I could without my Mom seeing me as we were picking them! Now that we've strolled down memory lane for a few, let's get into the making!

Berry Sweet Basket 2 Ways - cards by Juliana Michaels featuring Scrapbook.com Berry Sweet Die Set and Sunny Lane Florals Die Set

THANK YOU BERRY MUCH CARD | A2 Size

For my first card, I went rather traditional and used the Berry Sweet Die Set to create a berry basket filled with strawberries. I die cut the basket layers, the strawberry layers, the centers of the flowers, the leaves and the word berry from Distress Watercolor Paper. I then used ink blending brushes to apply various colors of Distress Oxide Inks to the die cuts. I die cut the flower base and shadow layer from white cardstock.

Distress Oxide Colors:
Basket - Walnut Stain and Brushed Corduroy
Strawberries - Scattered Straw, Festive Berries and Aged Mahogany
Flower centers - Fossilized Amber
Leaves - Peeled Paint and Forest Moss
Word Berry - Festive Berries

Thank you Berry Much Card by Juliana Michaels featuring Scrapbook.com Berry Sweet Die Set

After I applied the ink, I lightly spritzed all of the pieces with water using my Distress Sprayer and dried them with my heat tool. I then assembled the layers using Distress Collage Medium as my adhesive. I inked the edges of the basket with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I added tiny dots of Chocolate Kiss Pops of Color to add detail to the flower centers.


As I assembled the berries, leaves and flowers inside the basket, I adhered them with either Distress Collage Medium or Double Sided Foam Adhesive which gives them a little bit of dimension.

The sentiment was created using stamps from the Berry Sweet Stamp Set. I stamped it with Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink onto white cardstock and then trimmed them into small strips. All of the sentiment pieces are adhered with Double Sided Foam Strips.


The pink gingham paper behind the basket is from the Berry Sweet A2 Paper Pad. I trimmed it to 4 x 5.25 inches, inked the edges lightly with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and added some machine stitching. I then adhered it to a green plaid paper which is also from the same paper pad.


HELLO CARD | A2 Size

For the second basket, I departed from the berry theme and decided to fill it with flowers and butterflies! You might notice it also has a handle and I'll share how I created that.

Hello Card by Juliana Michaels featuring Scrapbook.com Berry Sweet and Sunny Lane Florals Die Set

This card was created in much the same way as the first card. I used the Berry Sweet Die Set for the basket and label. I used the Sunny Lane Florals Die Set for the flowers and leaves. The butterflies are from the Butterflies 2 Die Set and the sentiment is from the Thank You Sentiments II Die Set. All of the colored pieces were cut from Distress Watercolor Paper, inked with Distress Oxide Ink and spritzed with water.

Distress Oxide Colors:
Basket - Walnut Stain and Brushed Corduroy
Flowers - Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Festive Berries
Flower centers - Fossilized Amber
Leaves - Peeled Paint and Rustic Wilderness
Butterflies - Fossilized Amber
Word Hello - Festive Berries


The label, shadow layer for the sentiment and the flower centers were cut from white cardstock. I inked the edges of the label, flowers, butterflies and basket with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.


I adhered Hardware Heads to the label using Distress Collage Medium as my adhesive. Before adhering them, I colored them with Mushroom Alcohol Ink.


Now onto how I created the handle for the basket. I took 2 of the Scrapbook.com Nested Arches and nested them on a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper. I used a piece of Mint Tape to hold them in place so they wouldn't shift as I ran the dies through my die cutting machine.


And viola...a handle for my basket! I used two dies that were next to each other in size, but if you wanted a thicker handle you could go to the next size down.


I hope you enjoyed this bit of inspiration and seeing the Berry Sweet Basket 2 Ways! What would you fill the basket with? Strawberries? Cherries? Flowers? Or maybe something else?

Mother's Day Card | Faux Bleach Technique

With Mother's Day coming this weekend, I wanted to create a special card for my Mom and I was inspired by Tim's recent YouTube Live where he demonstrated a faux bleach technique with colored cardstock and Distress Ink. I initially attempted his method with purple Kraft Stock, but I didn't like the results I achieved and I wanted to use the color purple since it is my Mom's favorite color. I then remembered doing this technique myself, many years ago and decided to revisit my method but with a Tim Holtz twist!

Happy Mother's Day Card by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Floral Trims Stamp Set and Faux Bleach Technique

For those of you who are interested, I created a video showing how I created this card. However, since Mother's Day has come and gone, I decided to recreate it with a birthday theme and to switch up the color pallete. Here's a look at the card I create in the video.


Head on over to my YouTube channel to check it out or you can watch it below.



FAUX BLEACH TECHNIQUE

I began with a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper and stamped one of the images from Floral Trims onto it using Black Soot Archival Ink. I then ink blended over the stamped image using Shaded Lilac, Dusty Concord and Villainous Potion. I created a gradient from dark to light with Villainous Potion on the far left hand side, Dusty Concor in the middle and Shaded Lilac on the right.

I then took a waterbrush and removed the ink from inside the stamped image to create the faux bleach effect. I made sure to wipe off the brush frequently to prevent just moving the ink around and I used a paper towel to dab up the areas where I applied the water to help remove the ink.


Next, I took the script stamp from Exquisite and stamped just parts of it along the right hand sided using Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink. I then splattered the panel with water using a brush to create small water droplets and dried the paper.

MONOPRINTING WITH STENCILS

Now for the stencil work. I took the hexagon stencil from Mini Stencils Set 55 and sprayed it with Villainous Potion Spray Stain and then a bit of water. I then placed some torn paper towels on my card front at a angle creating a mask of sorts so that only the hexagon area would apply ink to the paper and not the solid border area. I then dabbed over the stencil with a paper towel. I did this in the top left and bottom right hand corner. I then dried the ink with my heat tool.  I then inked the edges with a bit of Villainous Potion Distress Ink.


For a bit more texture and interest, I then placed the stencil back over the areas where I had done the mono print and applied Distress Translucent Crackle Paste through the stencil. I then set the paper to the side to allow the paste time to crackle and dry. You can just barely see the effect this created  in the photos, so if you'd like to see a video that really captures how it looks, make sure to pop over to my Instagram to check it out.

To embellish the card, I used the Sizzix Woodland Stems to die cut a piece of vellum. I trimmed off just a bit of the stem and then adhered it to my card using Distress Collage Medium. For the sentiment, I die cut the word happy from white cardstock that had been run through my Xyron Sticker maker before I die cut the word. I then stamped the words Mother's Day using black ink and the Scrapbook.com Celebrate Expressions Stamp Set onto white cardstock. I completed the card by adhering some clear water droplets using Glossy Accents.


Thanks for stopping by! Whether or not you're making a Mother's Day card, I hope you'll give this Faux Bleach Technique a try.

Happy Birthday Card | How A Piece of Patterned Paper Inspired A Card

I recently received the Berry Sweet Paper Pad from Scrapbook.com and I immediately fell in love with this beautiful floral pattern that was included and it inspired me to create the card I'm sharing today.

Happy Birthday Card by Juliana Michaels featuring Scrapbook.com Berry Sweet Paper Pad, Layered Roses Bundle Die Set

While a few of the patterns in the Berry Sweet Paper Pad have berries and cherries as part of their design, most of the papers are quite neutral in their pattern and there are even some solid papers as well. This particular paper though, really spoke to me so I went through my other supplies and pulled out some things that I thought would good to use with this including the Scrapbook.com Layered Roses Bundle and Sprigs Die Sets.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARD | A2

Because the paper I had chosen for my background already had a lot going on, I decided to pick just one other pattern and some of the solid colors from the Berry Sweet Paper Pads to die cut for this card. I also used some a light pink cardstock from the Sherbet Paper Pad, plain white cardstock and my latest addiction...Tim Holtz Black Kraft Stock. (This is kraft paper that has a black color printed on one side. It came out for Halloween, but it is a well loved staple in my stash at the moment!)


The dies I used are the Scrapbook.com Layered Roses Bundle and Sprigs Die Sets. The rose has a solid shape and an outline shape that can be layered to create the flower. I die cut the the solid piece from white cardstock to have a base. I then die cut the outline 4 times...once each from white, dark pink, and light pink cardstock and then from Black Kraft Stock. I used the negative pieces from the dark and light pink die cuts to fill in the white outline and make it look similar to the roses on the background paper. I then took the black outline and trimmed it to fit around the rose and create another layer of interest. One other note of interest, I used a sanding disk to sand all of the Black Kraft Stock die cuts. This removes the black color and reveals the kraft paper underneath, giving it a slightly distressed look.


Once I had all of the die cutting completed, I inked the edges of the green leaves with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I trimmed the background paper down to 4 x 5.25 inches and inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and adhered it to a piece of Black Kraft Stock. I then adhered the began adhering the die cuts to the background using a combination of double sided foam adhesive squares and liquid adhesive.

The sentiment is from the Berry Sweet Stamp Set. It was stamped with embossing ink onto Black Kraft Stock and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I then trimmed it into a strip and adhered it with double sided foam adhesive strip. The final touch was the addition of some Pink Fresh Studio Iridescent Clear Drops.


Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed learning how a piece of patterned paper inspired a card. It just goes to show...you never know where you might find inspiration for your next project.

Bee Mine Card | How 2 New Products Inspired A Card

Scrapbook.com continues to expand their Pops of Color Collection. Most recently they added some dreamy spring time colors including Banana Split, Honeydew and Vanilla Bean. These new colors along with wanting to play with the Honeycomb A2 Plate Die inspired the card I'm sharing with you today.

I'm often inspired by the products I create with and this card is no exception. It was completely inspired by the Scrapbook.com Banana Split Pops of Color and Honeycomb A2 Plate die. After making the decision to create something with these products, I went through my stash and found other items that worked with the theme including the other dies and stamps I used.

Bee Mine Card by Juliana Michaels featuring Scrapbook.com Pops Of Color, Honeycomb Plate Die, Sprigs Die, Sweet Heart Stamp Set

BE MINE CARD | A2 SIZE

I started off with a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper and applied Banana Split Pops of Color directly to the paper. I then used an old credit card to smear the Pops Of Color across the panel. I choose to use a credit card instead of the Scrapbook.com Scraper because it was smaller in size. The smaller size allowed me to better control where the color went. I wanted to keep it toward the center of the paper and leave a border around the outer edge of just plain paper thus creating a frame for the Pops of Color.

I set this paper to the side to dry and I will admit the paper warped quite a bit. But after it was dry I adhered it to the card base using a strong adhesive and it was fine.


While the Pops of Color was drying, I worked on the other pieces for the card. I die cut a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper using the Honeycomb A2 Plate Die and ink smooshed it into a bit of Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I then used my scissors to trim it down and create a more organic look to it. I die cut a piece of patterned paper from the Scrapbook.com Berry Sweet Paper Pad using a die from the Scrapbook.com Sprigs Die Set. I die cut the bees from Black Kraft Stock (which I sanded with the Distress Sanding Disk) and Distress Watercolor Paper inked with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide.


I also did some stamping using the Scrapbook.com Sweet Heart Stamp Set. I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Ink in Onyx Black, fussy cut it and then inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I also stamped the outlined mini hearts using Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide, trimmed them into strips and inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

Once the Pops of Color was dry, I began adhering the various layers using a combination of liquid adhesive and double sided foam adhesive. 

The final touch was to ink the edges of the background with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and to add some machine stitching.


Thanks for your visit and I hope you enjoyed seeing how two products inspired the card I created and shared. Do your products and supplies ever inspire you to create? I'd love to hear more about it!

Bold Botanicals Notecard Set

Hello friend! I hope you're doing well! Did you catch the Tim Holtz 2023 Stampers Anonymous LIVE launch?! Tim shared all of the new stamps and stencils along with some amazing inspiration from the makers. If you missed the party, you can watch the replay and see all the maker inspiration over on Tim’s blog.

Bold Botanicals Notecard Set by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector Stamp Sets

I used the new Bold Botanicals to create a set of notecards that can be used for any occasion. I think they would make the perfect gift and I plan to create a larger set to gift to my Mom for Mother's Day!

I have to admit that when I first saw this set, I wasn't so sure about it. They are quite bold and modern looking. But after some stewing on ideas of what to create, an idea popped into my head and I had to give it a try. This set is the end result! I went with a slightly rainbow color theme and you could repeat the flowers to add even more colors, pick your favorite colors or go more neutral and create some in shades of brown and gray! The color options are limited only by your imagination.

Bold Botanicals Notecard Pink by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector Stamp Sets

I'm going to share a photo tutorial with you on how I created each note card.  To get started, I stamped the image onto a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper cut to 3.25 x 4 inches using Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry.


As I've already mentioned these images are quite bold...hence the name Bold Botanicals! And since they were a little too bold for me, I choose to use the stamp and smudge technique. For this technique you simply stamp the image using Distress Oxide Ink and then smudge the ink to create a distressed effect. Distress Oxide is the ink of choice for this technique since it stays wet for a bit after stamping.

Before you begin smudging though, I suggest dabbing off some of the excess ink in the more solid areas. If you don't do this, the ink will smudge so much that you will lose all of the details from the image.


After I dabbed off some of the excess ink, I used a paper towel to smudge the ink.


Take a look at this photo to see the effect this creates. On the right hand side you can see how it looks before the smudging and on the left side how it looks with the smudging.


Once the smudging was completed and the ink dry, I went a little old school and used my Deckle Edge Scissors to cut around the outer edge of the image leaving a small white border. If you're lucky enough to have Tim's Deckle Edge Trimmer, you could use that to get the same look. The final touch for this layer was to take the Register stamp from The Inspector stamp set and stamp it in the bottom left hand corner with Hickory Smoke Archival Ink.


Now for the background. For this step, I adhered a piece of Distress Watercolor Paper cut to 3.5 x 4.25 inches onto the center of my stamping platform using temporary adhesive. Because the paper is smaller than the stamp, you can't use the magnets to hold the paper in place.


I then took one of the stamps from the Tiny Prints Stamp Set, centered it over the paper in my stamping platform, pushed down and picked it up with the lid.


I then inked it Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide and stamped it onto the paper. The tiny floral prints on these stamps are some of my favorites and I know they'll be getting a lot of use in my future projects.


Once the ink was dry, I then took the Strictly Hand Made stamp from The Inspector stamp set. I used a stamping block to repeatedly stamp it across the paper using Distress Archival Ink in Picked Raspberry.


I love the finished look of this, but you could certainly skip this step if you are wanting to mass produce these as a gift for someone.


After I finished stamping the background, I layered it onto a piece of Distress White Heavystock cut to 3.75 x 4.5 inches to complete the card.

Here's a look at the other cards I created. For this card I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide for the Bold Botanical and Scattered Straw Distress Oxide for the Tiny Prints and Fossilized Amber Archival Ink for Strictly Hand Made. 

Bold Botanicals Yellow Notecard by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector Stamp Sets

For this card I used Peeled Paint Distress Oxide for the Bold Botanical and for the Tiny Prints and Peeled Paint Archival Ink for Strictly Hand Made. Even though I had done some test stamping, afterwards I felt like the Strictly Hand Made image didn't stand out as much as I would have liked. Another option to help it stand out more might be to use Bundled Sage when stamping with the Tiny Prints.

Bold Botanicals Green Notecard by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector Stamp Sets

On this one I used Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide for the Bold Botanical and for the Tiny Prints and Mermaid Lagoon Archival Ink for Strictly Hand Made. Here, Tumbled Glass might be an option to help the Strictly Hand Made stamping stand out more.

Bold Botanicals Blue Notecard by Juliana Michaels featuring Tim Holtz Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector Stamp Sets

All in all, I'm quite pleased with the completed set and I'm pretty sure I'll be making a larger set of these to gift to my mother for Mother's Day! I hope you enjoyed this bit of inspiration and tutorial using some of the new stamps from the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous 2023 release including Bold Botanicals, Tiny Prints and The Inspector.
