Who can resist summer's first, sweet strawberries? Yum! I made this card for my Mom who thinks dipping them in chocolate makes them an "extra" sweet indulgence!
Stef chose SV Soaps as our IC challenge site today. I was inspired to focus on the green and berries in this lip balm packaging:
I intended to put glossy accents on the strawberries, which I've seen done and it looks waaaay cool, but my bottle never dispensed it correctly and as of now, it's a gonner. Darn! :(
Sketch is based on Unscripted Sketches #165 found here:
Stamps: SU, PTI, Hampton Arts (on the inside)
Paper: Walmart black cardstock, Paper Studios kraft cardstock, SU ? green cardstock, SU real red cardstock, SU dp border
Ink: PTI, SU
Accessories: SU sponges for distressing edges of green panel
THANKS for looking!

I have to agree with your Mom... the addition of chocolate to fresh picked strawberries is the ultimate sweet indulgence! She's going to love this delightful summer card!

Now those wouldn't be choc. covered strawberries would they! I had a friend who always brought some over for my birthday. Yours bring back the memories. Great card. The green dotted paper is cool.
