The adorable Strawberry Shortcake Housewarming Surprise Recipe Booklet

9/6/2023

This is the cute little Strawberry Shortcake Housewarming Surprise Recipe Booklet that comes with the Strawberry Shortcake Housewarming Surprise board game. There is a white and bright pink version of this booklet. The pink one I believe. is from Canada. I did not know there were 2 different versions of this booklet until I found this one of Ebay recently. I am currently still searching for a new version of the pink one as mine is in awful condition. This booklet contains various simple recipes you can try. I will be creating larger images of each panel soon. These 2 images are very large, too large to really enjoy the art and information. Stay tuned.......

Beautiful Strawberry Shortcake Stationery Paper, complete

8/26/2023

I recently found this stationery paper set complete in an unopened box. I had this one already, in case you may recall my sharing it in the past. But it had only 4 sheets in it. This one has 16 decorative and 16 plain, plus 16 envelopes. I love the graphics on the front of the box with Blueberry Muffin. It is one of the cutest box covers of the Strawberry Shortcake Stationery sets, in my opinion. The stationery is very cute as well, with the Lucky Bug ladybug on beautiful drawings of strawberries.

Adorable Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Markers...

8/24/2023

These Vintage Markers are from The Netherlands from 1982. They were sold as sealed and never opened. The tape keeping them shut was poorly stuck, so I peeled it off. I was sticky all over and damaged. I was able to see the marker tips. Can you believe they are still in working condition? Like new, no joke. I couldn't believe it. I am so glad I got these!

Beautiful Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Card for an 8 Yr old....

8/21/2023

I added this beauty to the Birthday card page today. It is adorable. Unfortunately, the date was torn off, but it is likely from 1979 or 1980 going by the art style.

Adorable Hi, Daughter card for a Birthday Girl!

8/9/2023

I love these types of cards that are die-cut to the large writing at the top.
I have several of these types. I had not seen this card before I bought it recently.
Strawberry Shortcake and Custard look particularly adorable in this one. The art
reminds me of the very first cartoon.

Another Valentine's Card Varient for this graphic!

8/7/2023

I found another variant of this beautiful card. The new one is the one that reads "Everyone wants to be your Valentine". So far, I have found 4 different ones. I thought I had found all of them when I had 3, lol. Now I will assume there are more than 4 out there. I will keep looking for more variants The Custard on the inside of this card is the cutest! I have added an image of all the other variants of this card, How many could there possibly be? Will this one be like that paper doll card that has 7?

Berry Rare Christmas Pamphlet

8/4/2023

This is an extremely rare vintage Strawberry Shortcake Creative Christmas Ideas Pamphlet. It is so hard to find due to the fact that it was usually tossed in the trash because it was a little insert that was given out during the holidays. I am not 100 percent certain where these were given out. I am also uncertain what was associated with it's being given. Was it given at the stores, or was it in a magazine? If you happen to know I would love to find out and share the information on here. It is by Plus Mark 1983 under American Greetings Corp. Trademark. Since this item is so incredibly rare, I wanted to make sure everyone can have a copy of it. There may not be enough out there in the wild for every single person to add it to their collection. I have uploaded a high-resolution version of this file to my Vintage Shortcake Ephemera 2.0 Berry Group on Facebook . You can join it by clicking the link below:

The image is in the group's files. I also have added other high resolution image files of several lovely items of interest. This is where all high-resolution images will be added from now on. I hope you enjoy it. It is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 folded. You can print the front and back on an 8 1/2 x 1 1 sheet of paper and it will fit on it perfectly.

Adorable Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Card....

7/27/2023

This is another adorable Birthday card I have recently added to my collection. It is from 1980. The image is not used very often. I believe, if I recall correctly, that it was also used on a gift tag sized card. This is a regular sized card, and the image looks so awesome printed bigger. It is a showstopper !

Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Mysterious Birthday Card...

7/27/2023

I ran into this cute card several weeks ago. It is die-cut and embossed with many tiny polka dots all over. both of these card parts. These two panels are part of the card, but it is missing 2 panels to complete it. The inside message and the back cut removed at some point in time. I love how Custard is all by herself on the second panel with just polka dots all around. I hope to find this card complete one day. It is adorable!

Beautiful Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Valentine's Day Card....

7/22/2023

This is a lovely Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Valentine. It is from 1983. This one is pretty rare. It has pretty foil wording on the front of the card. This lovely image of Miss. Shortcake is not a common one. She is adorable holding a heart in her arms with a well bucket next to her filled with heart wishes. The strawberries at the right of this image are just the icing on the Strawberry Shortcake! Inside of the card you see Custard with a heart in her little kitty mouth, next to the bucket full of hearts that seems to have been cut off the well. If you read the message on the card, this whole image makes a lot more sense, Super adorable!!

Cute Strawberry Exclusive promotional note card

7/21/2023

This is a special promo card that was given out at an event by AG Properties. It is very hard to find because it was only given out at the special event. It is a more modern card, but still berry special.

Sweet Vintage Strawberry Shortcake BIRTHDAY CARD.....

7/7/2023

This is another adorable card I recently added to my birthday card album. I love the die-cut cards so much. The font of the "You're 7",
really stands out on this one. I love it!

Aborable Vintage Strawberry Sahortcake Berry baby card featuring Lemon Meringue

7/6/2023

This cute card is from the Berry Babies cards. It is Lemon Meringue as a baby/toddler with a cute old-fashioned phone. To me it's just a regular phone like we used to use when I was a kid, lol. But for today, it is likely considered a very old-style phone. She looks extra-specially cute as a baby!

Adorable Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Mother's Day Card

5/13/2023

Just in time for Mother's Day, I wanted to share this sweet card I recently added to my collection. The front wording is done in red metallic reflective foil. The front is also embossed over the art. Inside there is a sheet of pink paper with the greeting printed on it separately, then glued to the card at the back. Shortcake Mother's Day cards are not very common. It is berry sweet to find this card now . Happy Mother's Day to all of you berry mamas out there !

Adorable Shortcake Pop-Up Varients.....

5/13/2023

These two cards are so sweet. One is a Valentine and the other is a Birthday card. They both have the same pop-up mechanism. These cards are both embossed on the front. The biggest difference between these 2 cards is the size and message. The Birthday version measures
7 3/4 x 5 inches, the Valentine measures. 9 x 6 inches. There are color differences as well as vibrance differences. The colors are much more vivid and dark on the Birthday version. Another really cute difference on the Birthday card is that the writing on the front and inside of the card are done in a shiny lifted enamel sort of paint. I really like that feature. The background on the front of the Valentine appears much lighter than the Birthday version. I prefer the pinker one. Over all these cards are adorable. It is one of my favorite images within the pop-up versions of this type of card. I love the combination of the front and inside imaging. So many beautiful things have been incorporated into this card. The giant strawberry bush that reaches into the sky. The view from above looking down on Strawberry land. The sweet face that Mr. Sun has on the inside of this card. I love all the hearts on the front of this card and how Lucky Bug is on the inside and outside of the card. How about that mountain in the background with a strawberry on top? So wonderful!
