BERRY BACKGROUND/BACKING PAPER: A4 with Commercial Use
This pretty and versatile background, features repeated red and orange watercolour berries on a branch.
It's designed to match my "Happy Thanksgiving Berries card", but would work wonderfully in any autumnal project (and could even be used to make gift bags, small boxes or printable gift wrap for smaller items.
It's also designed so that it can be used both horizontally and vertically, and prints well (300dpi) at ordinary A4 size, with a small border around the edge for easy printing and cutting.
And, as with all my designs, you're free to sell anything you personally physically hand make using this sheet, whether on CUP, or anywhere else. Happy making!

I am uploading this pair of photographs, even though there is a very detailed explanation of how I put this card together to achieve this outcome in my previous upload for the cup918212_79993, Happy Thanksgiving Berries, the design by Clare Walker that is the main card for this backing, background sheet.
I used the backing sheet to print onto both sides of an A4 white 120gsm card and trimmed it to measure 25cm x 15cm, then scored and folded it before I attached the orange and chocolate brown backing sheets to the main image and then used 2 ribbons together to wrap across the front before attaching this to the card front.
I used a second copy of the main image to attach to the card front adding some leaves and berries as decoupage before adding gold dust sprinkles and a ribbon tie.
As the insert was already prepared with the print of the berries, I was then able to add the frame from the main image and some more decoupage to complete the look.
I used D.S. tape tp attach each layer and Padded D.S. tape to attach the main image. I have used thickened white glue to complete the decoupage.
I have defined the edges of the main backing sheet and the brown backing sheet with silver metallic pen, and the rest of the work with a brown permanent pen.
This backing, background sheet has such universal appeal and usage, like all of the other art work by Clare, can be used to embellish and high light many greeting cards and paper crafts.
I am sending a huge hug to you, as a thank you, Clare. Pamela Horton.

. A piece of the background paper, just slightly smaller than the front of base card, was mounted onto black card with DST, trimmed to leave a narrow border and secured to front of cream base card with DST. A 'topper' was made using a die cut doily and a die cut hedgehog and secured to front of card with foam pads. The card was completed by securing the 'thank you' insert with DST. A lovely card, quickly and easily made, by combining both design sheets){kind=link}
Printed and cut out design sheet, as well as matching insert sheet (cup918219_79993).
