I used Easy Folder Frames to avoid embossing over my image. The strawberries are my fruit for this week's 'Let's get Fruity' CAS challenge and the flowers are for the Ways to Use it 'May Flowers' challenge. Nothing beats wild strawberries for taste and they are merrily flowering in the grass now. ...and in my garden where they don't belong! :-)

OH Mrs. Dockside, you've created a lovely country themed card today with those strawberries. I've never hear of easy frames. I'm not going to research what they are because my credit card is still over the limit. Great card.

I really like the effect that the easy folder frames gave your card and your strawberries are beautifully colored. Volunteer strawberries? How awesome, like your card.

That net EF looks just like a berry basket! The image of your berries is really pretty! Love that you left the blank spot for the image instead of adding another layer. The gingham DP and greeting to match are really nice with the berries!

I have that ef thing to keep from embossing the entire bg, but have never thought to use it. It looks fantastic on this card, and now I will have to search for where I put mine. Those strawberries look good enough to eat. I like that you left a lot of white on your card...gives it such a fresh spring look.
