Strawberry Social Stamp Set/Paper Collection

Candy Coat

This was fun to make!  I had been wanting to make this strawberry shortcake...

it looks so yummy, right?  Let me show you how I made my delicious card!

I started by making my background panel.  Using plain white card stock I stenciled

the panel using the Strawberry Seeds Stencil and Yellow Candy Coat.  I let

this dry completely before adding dots from the red dotted paper in the Paper

Collection.  I used my hole punch for this.  I went around each of the dots with

a red Copic marker.

I trimmed this down to 3 1/2" x 4 3/4".  I stamped my strawberry

short cake image onto white card stock with a Copic friendly ink.

I colored the two strawberries on top first.

Then moved onto the biscuit part.  You can see in the picture that I made little

dots with my marker for the biscuit to give it some texture.

Next was coloring the chocolate.

My Copic palette:

Berries:  R02, R05, R17, R59

Leaves:  YG23, YG17, YG67

Biscuit:  Y21, E33, E35, blender

Chocolate:  E7, E25, E77, E79

I decided to use a yellow card stock base.  I die cut an oval from the same

yellow card stock and stamped my sentiment with red ink.

Now it was time to put my base completely together.  I used a white A2

size top folding card base to which I adhered a red panel that measures

4" x 5 1/4".  I adhered my stenciled panel on top of that.  I cut and adhered 

another red panel that measures 2 3/4" x 4".  I took a piece of scrap yellow

card stock and spread on a layer of the yellow Candy Coat.  I let that dry. 

I cut that panel to 3 3/4" x 1 3/4" and adhered on top of the red panel.

My last panel was white, measures 2 1/4" x 3 1/2".  I embossed this with

a 3D embossing folder that had big dots on it.

With my strawberry shortcake fussy cut and the letters of the sentiment

outlined in black pen, it was time to put this together.  I popped up the

strawberry shortcake and the sentiment on foam tape.  I added a clay

heart to the sentiment and yellow confetti to my background and my

project was done!

I enjoyed making this card so much!  And I do want some strawberry

shortcake on a warm biscuit, with homemade whipped cream.  YUMMM!
