Berries are one of my favorite things about summer. Sweet, juicy, low in calories, great alone, on cereal and yogurt or paired with desserts....oh boy! When I saw that Simon Says Stamp has a challenge called Summer Fruit, I was in!
This is rather a fancy strawberry card, isn't it? The delicious berry is from Mason Jar Summer Add On by Inspired By Stamping. I made my own 'patterned paper' with a houndstooth stamp from their Background Basics II set, and added a sentiment from Small Fancy Labels II. I layered them on a fleur de lis frame from Fancy Labels 2, on a Fancy Labels 2 die cut. See, I told you this was fancy! Hee hee.
Mind if I show you the cutest strawberry I ever saw? This is my oldest daughter when she was almost 5 months old. I made her costume from a little red sweatshirt, tights, and a bathing suit hat, some black fabric paint and green felt (looks black in the picture, though).
Oh, this brings back wonderful memories!
