Seize the Birthday #287 - Fruits - Colleen





My card for STB hosted by my Bff, Colleen.  She would like to see fruit on our cards. 
Come see the gallery and look at all of the fantastic inspiration by our team.

This is PinkFresh's Berries and Blossoms, stamp and stencil set, using Gina K's inks.  I used a technique by Gina on a recent video from her You tube Channel.  It's called Fancy Fold. When the card is closed it looks like a one-layer card, but then you open, and it has a stenciled piece inside.  Fun and very easy.  Not as easy to photograph.  




If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just

stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!
The choice is yours!



Surprise Party Guest
is Julia


Thanks for stopping by.

Beautiful card Linda. Love the Berries & Blossoms set and the fun technique you used that makes it look like one layer.

What crisp and clean stamping/stenciling Linda - don't you just love the sets that make the coloring so much easier to do?! Beautiful berries and blossoms and great colors used as well as a very fun fold! Julia xx

I really enjoyed this card and how you got the fruits for this challenge on it. Very colorful and a fun new technique to try as well.

That's a fun technique, both for the maker and the receiver!! I love the image that you've used as well. Not only does it fit the technique well, but it also looks so bright and cheerful too. Awesome delivery, Linda!
