Cute Fruit

I have had fun creating cards with the Cute Fruit stamps.  Take a look!


This stamp set is in the Beginner Brochure - you can view the PDF on the right-hand column.  If you would like a Brochure, let me know & I'll drop one in the mail to you. 



The stamping on these cards ranges from quick, easy stamping, to ideas for stepping them up.
 So, whether you're new to stamping or have been doing it a while, I think you will have fun using these stamps.  

For the first card:

Card base: whisper white card stock, 11" x 4 1/4", folded at 5 1/2"
Layer piece:  Playing with Patterns DSP (152490) - 5 1/4 x 4"
Stamp the melon image with Magenta Madness and Just Jade onto white, 3 x 2 1/4"
Adhere to a piece of Magenta Madness card stock, 3 1/8 x 2 3/8".
Use Stampin' Deminsionals to adhere the image piece to card base.

********************************

2nd card, using the same melon image, but stepping it up a bit:

Card base:  white card stock, 11" x 4 1/4", folded at 5 1/2".
Patterned paper: In Color 6" x 6" paper pack (153070) - 4 1/2" x 3 1/4"
Image on white, 2" x 2 3/4";  stamp melon with Magenta Madness & Just Jade ink; stamp smiley face and the "smile" in Memento Tuxedo black.  I used a black Sharpie pen to draw the jazz hands.
Banner: Just Jade, die-cut with Tasteful Labels Dies (152886), but can also be free-handed cut, using a piece 1 1/2" x 7/8" and cut out the "V".  Cut a piece of Magenta card stock just slightly larger; adhere together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

******************************

Next, on to the pineapple image:

Card base - same as the other two.
Layers:  Playing with Patterns DSP (152490) - 5 1/4" x 4"
              Granny Apple Green card stock - 3 1/2 x 2 1/8
               White card stock - 3 3/8 x 2.
               Scrap of white to stamp & die-cut.
Stamp pineapple with Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green ink.  Stamp smiley face with Tuxedo Black Memento.  Draw hands & feet with Sharpie or other black marker of your choice.
Sentiment: stamp in Granny Apple Green onto white; die-cut with Tasteful Labels Dies.  Sentiment piece is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Other elements are glued with Multipurpose glue.

******************************

For this final card, I also used another stamp set:  Jar of Flowers (152515) and coordinating punch (152703) - available as a BUNDLE, saving you 10%.  Bundle item is 154064

Card base:  Whisper white card stock, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", folded at 4 1/4"
Layer:  whisper white, 5 1/4 x 4"; stamp the sentiment and add the other elements, then I used Stampin' Dimensionals to mount it to card base.
Sentiment is from the June Paper Pumpkin Kit, stamped in Daffodil.  You could use the sentiment from the Cute Fruit set, equally well:  "wishing you a slice of happiness"
Jar image: stamped with Seaside Spray ink onto white, punched out with the coordinating punch.  
The straw in the Jar of Flowers set is stamped in Daffodil.  Stamp it twice, once on the jar, once on a scrap of white & fussy cut the straw from the scrap.  Adhere it first to the card, the adhere the jar, lining up the straws.  This makes it look like the straw is in the jar.
Stamp the citrus fruits from Cute Fruit set in daffodil delight (lemons), pumpkin (oranges), and granny apple green & old olive (lime).  I punched these with a 3/4" circle punch.
