    1. Cover the card front with striped Berry Bliss paper. Cut 5”x1 ¼” blue with berries paper and mat the long sides on dark red Christmas Floral Solid. Glue 1 ¼” from the bottom of the card. Place pink thin line Dazzles™ on each long side.

    2. Use the Tag in a Bag dies to cut a bag from dark red Solid and run through the Gemini. Use extra sticky tape and follow the directions on the package to form the bag. Note: my bag has dark red on the inside and brighter red on the outside. Glue to the card.

    3. Cut 2 ¼”x3” pink dot Berry paper and use the corner rounder on the corners. Use Christmas Solid papers with the Berry dies and run through the Gemini. Glue as shown. Position in the MISTI with “amazing” stamp as shown. Tap tuxedo ink pad on the stamp and close the MISTI. Repeat if necessary. Foam tape to the bag and glue a ladybug as shown.

    4. Use the tag die to cut a tag from the same cherry paper used on the card plus another from blue Berry Bliss paper for the inside. Thread red grosgrain from the Red Ribbon set through the tag’s hole and knot red metallic ribbon to secure it. 

    5. Cut 2”x2 ¼” pink dot Berry paper and cut the corners with the punch. Glue to the tag. Use the Berry Bliss dies with Solid cardstock and run through the Gemini. Glue as shown. 

    6. Place the tag in the MISTI with the “sweet” stamp positioned as shown. Open the MISTI, tap tuxedo ink on the stamp and close the MISTI. Repeat if necessary.

    7. Inside: Glue 4 ½”x6” pink check Berry paper in place. Repeat step #4 to make another “Berry best” greeting.
