Today's challenge was to used ruffles. I hope my lace on this jar counts as a ruffle. I wanted to use my new Papertrey set that I won in Feb. This set is so cute and summery. I love to pick strawberries....so my card today reminds me of things to come in June...sitting in the strawberry field, eating as many fresh berries that I can...hauling a huge box of fragrant berries, riding on the hay truck that takes you back and forth to the field..mmmmm...can't wait!

Polly, our strawberry season comes a month earlier....and you are making my mouth water with those luscious strawberries in a jar...expertly colored, by the way. Love the colors and design of your card. You chose well with this PTI set.....and have certainly used it beautifully.

Nice lace around the jar! I LOVE strawberries, and not just because they're RED!
