Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
I wanted to use this Strawberries set because Markie has a few strawberry plants planted in a "hens and chicks" planter right outside our picture window. He planted them with his father 3 years ago, and they are still producing strawberries. Yesterday, Markie ran in with 5 juicy berries and presented them to me like they were bars of gold. I swear, he was so thrilled! And, it makes me weepy thinking about how happy he can get over such wonderfully small things.
The images were stamped in VersaMark and embossed in white. Next, they were colored in with Copic markers and cut out.
The papers are various Basic Grey designer papers. I used a Finishing Touches buckle for the center of the bow.
