*CC384 Sweet Cherries

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

MaryR gave us the following colors which, indeed, are very "Christmasy":

very vanilla
cherry cobbler
gumball green

She suggested we make a Christmas card. As you can see, I skipped the option in favor of a summertime card. I was in a local craft/home decorating store today and was completely turned off by the copious amounts of Christmas stuff they already had for sale. Guess it is about "making a buck"....can't start too early. : )

TFL

Edited to add: Mary R raised a good point: These stores are also sources of supplies to those who make things to sell at craft fairs and the like....they need to get going now. So true!

I am so happy to see these colors changed up to make a beautiful summer card, Sallie. I really like that double border die - I may have to put this on my wish list :) And, those cherries look delicious enough to eat. Thanks so much for the inspiration, Love it!
