Have you seen the products in the Blackberry Beauty suite? They are absolutely stunning! Some of my card making favorites are the designer series paper and the ephemera pack. So today I want to share 4 simple card ideas featuring these products. And, as an added bonus, I have a simple gift box idea too!
Card Making Ideas
Let’s start out by talking about the 4 simple cards featuring the Blackberry Beauty Designer Series Paper (DSP) and the Ephemera pack. The DSP was used to create the beautiful background on these cards. The focal point on each of the cards features a variety of die cut shapes from the ephemera pack. The greeting comes from the Time of Giving stamp set and is the only stamping on these cards.
The first card features a 2 x 4-1/4 inch piece of Blackberry Beauty DSP in the background. The frames and floral pieces, from the ephemera pack, make up the focal point for the card. Super simple to create! The second card features a 4 x 5-1/4 inch and a 2 x 4 inch piece of DSP in the background. Add a little tag and floral piece from the ephemera pack and, voila, you have another stunning card idea!
The last two card ideas are just as simple and stunning as the first two. For all a complete list of supplies and all the measurements for creating these cards, be sure to download the free tutorial below.
Blackberry Beauty Gift Box
The last project idea I have to share with you is a little gift box idea. It features the use of a kraft window box which you can find in the Stampin’ Up! annual catalog. The boxes come in a pack of 10 and there are lots of fun ways to decorate them! I decide to place a 4-1/4 x 6-1/4 inch piece of DSP behind the window on the box to showcase it. Then I simply decorated the box with a variety of different die cut shapes from the Blackberry Beauty ephemera pack. Super simple to create!
The gift box measures 4-5/8 x 6-1/2 inches when closed. It’s about 3/4 inches deep. There is plenty of room in the box to placed 4-6 handmade cards with envelopes. Cards make such a great gift giving idea! Of course you can also use the gift box to package up other small items.
