Sometimes you don’t even know how or where you came up with an idea for a card, and this To the Point Punch Berry Burst Card is one of those! I just had the idea of using this new punch in this design so I just started stamping and punching. And it worked out!
The card base is Berry Burst, one of the colors in the Brights Family. I don’t use this color a lot, but it is what I chose glancing at my cardstock. The Basic White layer on top of the Berry Burst is stamped with the little flowers in the Bright Borders Stamp Set. They are just randomly stamped around on the cardstock because the background needed something.
I stamped the outline image on Basic White with Berry Burst ink. I chose one of the greetings from the Bright Borders Stamp Set to stamp in the center. For the other two side border pieces I stamped the flower from the Hearts of Elegance Stamp Set. I punched those out, but after placing them on the card, I decided they needed a Berry Burst layer behind them. I trimmed down each white stamped piece with Paper Snips, then punched three Berry Burst pieces with the To the Point Label Punch. I adhered the stamped pieces on the punched pieces and then they could show up better on the card.
The center border image is popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals, but first I applied Stampin’ Seal to the back so I could wind the Gold Twisted Thread back and forth on the back so some loops would stick out from the sides. For a little more embellishment, I added two gold dots from the Low Profile Dots.
That’s all there is to this card. It is monochromatic but you could add other colors instead of making your card monchromatic.
