The first card I’m sharing today features the Premium kit.

To create this card I first, stamped several fruits from the clear stamp set in INTENS-ified Black Ink onto Deluxe Smooth White cardstock. I then copic colored the images, die cut them out with the matching dies and then added white gel pen highlights.

Next, I die cut an A2 panel of Dove White cardstock with the Fruit & Veggie Window Die. I then adhered panel to an A2 panel of acetate and then set aside to dry.

Next, I ink blended the front of an A2 top-folding white card base with Fruit Punch, Creamsicle, Lemon Drop and Key Lime Fizz Reactive inks. I then stamped the panel with a sentiment from the clear stamp set in INTENS-ified Black Ink.

Next, added foam adhesive to the backside of the windowed panel, then placed some of the clay fruit embellishments over the card front, and then adhered the panel to the card front. I then finished the card by adhering my fruits to the card front with foam adhesive.

My second card features a few of the add-on products, namely the Farmers Market Truck Fancy Die and the Farmer’s Market Icons Stamp Set.

To create this card I first die cut the truck out of Mist cardstock with the Farmers Market Truck Fancy Die. I then die cut the truck again out of Pitch Black and mirrored silver cardstock. Next, I trimmed off the tires and bumper and then adhered them to the Mist truck.

I then die cut several apples and pears out of Deluxe Smooth White cardstock and then copic colored the fruit. I then die cut two baskets out of Sand cardstock, ink blended them with a little Sand Core Ink and then filled them with the fruit. Next, I adhered the baskets on the truck with foam adhesive.

I then die cut a dog out of Cup O’ Joe cardstock and then copic colored the eyes, nose and body. Next, I die cut the dog again out of Mustard and Deluxe Smooth White cardstock. I then trimmed out the Mustard collar and adhered it to the dog. Next, I trimmed out the white bandana, copic colored it and then adhered it to the dog. I then adhered the dog to the truck with foam adhesive and then adhered the truck to the front of an A2 top-folding white card base.

Next, I finished the card by stamping a sentiment from the Farmer’s Market Icons Stamp Set in INTENS-ified Black Ink to the card front.
