Post Cards from the Berry Patch
By Heather Collins

Taking a walk in nature was one of my favorite childhood memories. My Dad and I would walk and talk for hours. Truly don’t remember what we talked about, but I remember this being a carefree time of my life.

I wanted to capture nature when I made this project.

To start this project I took a small media tag and added some distressed, inked papers using the iCraft Ultrabound Permanent Dries Clear Adhesive. Next using a pallet knife, molding paste and a stencil to add another layer.

I used several stamps to add more contrast to this layer. By doing all these steps I basically created my own background paper.

Then I used the Ultrabond Clear Adhesive and applied it in random places around the tag and let dry for 20 seconds. Then I pressed the Deco Foil Transfer Sheet in Copper to where the glue was still tacky.

Lastly using the iCraft Ulrabond Permanent Adhesive I added the Berry stamps that I had stamped, colored and fussy cut out.

I also added my found tree bunch, faux nest, rocks and lace. To add another dimension iCraft 3D foam tape was added underneath some of the stamped images.
