For today's Free for All challenge, we are to have dots. There are dots (circles) in the embossing on the apron, dots on the strawberries and big starburst dots in the paper.
For the apron, I stamped the gingham bg with bamboo ink onto ivory, die cut it, trimmed off the edges and embossed it. I like the way the embossed pattern went with the gingham. I die cut another apron in ivory and attached it behind the trimmed gingham version. I die cut two each of the pockets as well and did the same trimming on the patterned versions. I used the small tag die of the Recipe & Tag die set to die cut the pick your own tag. The strawberries were stamped, colored w/ Copics and fussy cut. I added the word Strawberries down the right side using the red & green inks.
Thanks so much for looking! This card measures 5x5. My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

What a fun card! The "25 cents a pint" reminds me of when I was a kid and we would pick strawberries and sit by the side of the road and sell them! Thanks for the memories!!!
