Contributor Insights

The Berry Harvest collection is just one of those that make me smile. I have many fond memories of blueberry picking in northern Minnesota (I’ve mostly forgotten the mosquito bites I endured to get them) and visiting berry farms with my family. I love that this set captures all kinds of yummy fruits and fruit treats. There are even a few mats that allow you to include a favorite recipe! Add the two jammin’ punches and the pages of fruit-filled memories and traditions practically make themselves! Tip: Get out your Black Micro-Tip Pen to add details to the jam jars you punch out.

- Advisor Krislyn Mattei, creator of Berry Harvest collection projects

Berry Harvest is a lovely collection that will work with all types of summer photos. While the two new punches are perfect for photos of delicious homemade goods, this collection also works for outdoor photos and precious pictures of children and grandchildren. Whether it’s the decorative side or the tonal side, every sheet of this paper pack is stunning. You’re going to want at least two packs of this paper. Okay, maybe three.

- Advisor Donna Guest, creator of Berry Harvest Project Playbook

I’m absolutely in love with the Berry Harvest collection! The vintage rainbow color palette is warm, inviting, and pairs perfectly with the nostalgic charm of the patterns and artwork — it’s like a walk down memory lane! The Canning Jars Border Punch is not only a delightful design on its own, but it also does double duty when you snip apart the jars to use them as adorable embellishments on your pages. I cannot wait to craft more with this collection!

- Advisor Meggan Jacks, creator of Berry Harvest Project Recipe™

2-Day Air Change: August 1, 2025

Starting Friday, Aug. 1, 2025, at noon CT, the 2-day air shipping option will no longer be available for orders with subtotals of $501 or more. This change is necessary, as these high-value expedited shipments result in a loss for us, and the cost to continue offering them would be unreasonably high.

2-day air will still be available for orders under $501. Fewer than 50 Advisors currently use this option at the $501+ level, so this change will impact only a small number of orders.
