I made these two note cards for two sweet ladies to send encouragements to them. I decided for my sanity I would make them look the same
I simply use some scrap pieces of paper from K&Co, red cardstock, and my Flourishes Strawberry stamp set, stamped, colored them, and cut them out. I used a Cuttlebug die for the squares that the strawberries sit on. And I used my Distress inks to color them in.

Very cute, simply stated and would not "need" anything the way it is, but if you wanted to liven it up just a touch......add.... well on second thought why add anything, I like it the way it is!!

I'd agree that they really don't need anything. If you had Glossy Accents, I've seen it used to great effect on those strawberries, but maybe more when they are on a panel, rather than cut out as you have done. I'm not a great one for too much embellishment, but I'd sponge the edges of the spotted panels just to add more definition.

I like the shape of these cards & the colors you used! it's fun to find them not in the most popular rectangle a-2 shape sometimes. ( ok every time) ;)
