Strawberries

OK, I love strawberries and today's post has me craving the red lucious sweet fruit. When we lived in SC we had a friend that had a strawberry farm and each summer I would help them sell and pick strawberries.

This is July's release from Flourishes - Strawberries. The card base is on Chocolate brown layered with White cardstock, punched by Martha Stewart punch, one layer was embossed with the cuttlebug swiss dot folder. I used Spellbinders - Petite Circle and Scalloped Circle to mount the image.

Several weeks ago a few of my friends and I visited a stamp convention and discovered a company called Heartfelt Creations. They had a sample of their image of strawberries and I just had to have it. I've followed basically their sketch but used colors that I had.
All images are colored using the Copic markers.

Ok, do I have you drooling for strawberries. Note these are the first cards I have ever done sewing on. Wasn't that hard on my normal sewing machine, can't seem to get the little sewing machines to work as well.

Todays bible verse: At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10-11
