It’s been cold here in North Georgia and while I don’t like the snow and ice to stick around long the lows at night haven’t been above freezing, so it’s still sticking around in the higher elevations and in shady spots. While it’s cold like this it makes me think of our blueberry bushes. Odd, right? But I know that the chilling hours we get now will help give me a bumper crop come June and I’ve loved picking blueberries and of course using them in all kinds of things from our bushes since our children were small.
So today’s card shows off those wonderful blueberries I’m anticipating with a fun fold. Open the front panel and you’ll see the beautiful Designer Series Paper inside.
Open the second panel and you’ll have a full panel for writing.
Want to see how I made it? Why not check out this Video Tutorial showing you how I cut this fun fold card and decorated it using the Blueberry Bushel Stamp set Last Chance List (163432) and Brights Designer Series Paper Assortment (163775).

The holidays are upon us and that means gathering and traveling, unfortunately the end results can mean being under the weather. And who doesn’t like a little pick me up knowing someone is thinking of them when you don’t feel good?
The Embraced with Love Stamp Set (Last Chance 164246) gives you get well options and more. And these little animals are adorable too. Check out this lovely card using a quick and easy stripping technique for the background.
While the image was colored with our Stampin’ Blends and cut out using our Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) the background technique adds bold color and pulls out the colors Peach Pie, Azure Afternoon, and Cajun Craze that were used for the bear and blanket.
How was the background made? Everyone has those 1/2 inch strips laying around, right? simply draw a line across the card front at an angle starting at the top left down to the bottom right. Add your first strip along this line for a starting point then add the next strip and so on until top section is filled. Trim ends to line up with the card front. Next, line up the ends of the strips along this line for the bottom section, adhere and trim with the edge of the card front. Yep, that simple! and what an impact.
