Full list of supplies needed, listed below. A die cutting machine is needed for this card.
Blackberry Bliss Cardstock: 5 1/2″ w x 8 1/2″ h folded to 5 1/2″ w x 4 1/4″ h

Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper: 5 1/2″ w x 3 3/4″ h

Basic White Cardstock:

• scrap for sentiment
• 4″ h x 5 1/4″ w

Let’s Create

1. Affix all stamps to Acrylic Blocks.
2. Fold the Card Base in half using a Bone Folder to sharpen the crease.
3. Stamp the Watercolor World stamp on the the Fluid 100 watercolor paper in Versamark ink. Sprink with white embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.
4. Press a spare block onto Bubble Bath ink. Use a Water Painter to add a few drops of water to the ink on the block, dip the Water Painter into the diluted ink and spread color onto the background of the Fluid 100 paper. It’s OK to paint right over the embossed image, just use a tissue or paper towel to lift any ink off the embossed image. Let it dry a bit and then repeat with Berry Burst and Blackberry Bliss ink until you have the desired look. Allow to dry between colors.
5. Wrap ribbon around the watercolored panel and tie a bow. Secure with a Mini Glue dot, if needed.
6. Stamp the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink, trim to size and attach with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
7. Sprinkle on the gems.
8. Stamp and decorate the 4″ h x 5 1/4″ w for inside and attach with Stampin’ Seal.
9. Decorate your envelope.
10. So pretty! Now send it to someone special.

Let’s Create

1. Affix all stamps to Acrylic Blocks.
2. Fold the Card Base in half using a Bone Folder to sharpen the crease.
3. Secure one of the Artistic Mix Masks over one of the 5 1/4″ h x 4″ w Basic White panels layered on a piece of scrap paper. Use a Blending Brush to apply Boho Blue Ink to the panel. Apply lightly toward the edges for more concentrated color in the center. Remove the mask and stamp the crosshatch stamp in Misty Moonlight ink. Apply the panel to the card base with Stampin’ Seal.
4. Run a strip of Tear N’ Tape down the right edge and gather the ribbon down the edge along the tape. I wrap the ribbon over the pointed end of the Take Your Pick Tool to pull the ribbon up and then push the ribbon down on the Tear N’ Tape. You may also need to secure with a bit of Multipurpose Glue.
5. On the Basic White scrap stamp the cluster of apples in Tuxedo Black ink. Use Real Red, Old Olive, adn Pebbled Path Stampin’ Blends to color in the apples, leaves and branches. Use the Apple Harvest Dies (now on clearance!) to die cut the brankc or fussy cut out with Paper Snips. Attach with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
6. Die cut a rounded corner rectangle from the Nested Shapes. One in Basic White and one in Misty Moonlight.
7. Stamp the sentiment on the white rounded corner rectangle in Misty Moonlight ink. Use Stampin’ Seal to attach the white rounded corner rectangle to the Misty Moonlight. Trim bottom edge of the stacked rounded corner rectangles and attach with Stampin’ Seal.
8. Sprinkle on the Adhesive Backed Glitter Sequins (from the ’23 Sept – Dec Mini coming out tomorrow!)
9. Stamp and decorate the reamining 5 1/4″ h x 4″ w Basic White panel for the inside and attach with Stampin’ Seal.
10. Decorate your envelope.
11. Pretty! Who will you send it to?
