I had a completely different design ready to go, when I accidentally found this large strawberry reach out to me. Really. It was a random white paper that I happened to turn over, which was my first attempt at WCC007 Watercolor blending lesson back in July. Hadn't come across it since then. Do coincidental things like this happen to you? I love it when it does! I improved it by covering it.
If you're interested, this was my not-that-much-better 2nd attempt: WCW007 Berry Kind by ArtzadoniStudio at Splitcoaststampers.
Anyway, I was inspired by this washi tape at Eyelet Outlet. https://www.eyeletoutlet.com/strawbe...shi-tape1.html ; I stamped and fussy cut craft foam to match the berry stamps, then partially inked them with the "chocolate" and heat embossed. Touched them up with embossing pens, and another layer of EP. I added their decorations with a glaze and a Pitt pen. Die cut the berry tops from Christmas DP scraps. Punched the corner for a little more interest.

I love how you used your watercolor painting as your background for these chocolate covered strawberries.

Oh, I love this! I love that you rescued that yummy strawberry. The gold embossing is so pretty and I love that the smaller strawberries are chocolate covered. YUM!

That's what happens when you play with the WCW, you have things left over to use later. LOL Love the chocolate covered ones, too. Wonderful gold embossing and looks great. Good work with that inspiration.

Your array of "dipped" strawberries is so cool but while I think they always look so elegant on a tray my favorite for munching would always be the plain lush red one you rescued from WCW. The gold flourishes look fabulous here.
