Congratulations to Jessica aka jlararski as Featured Stamper FS822.
I thoroughly enjoyed browsing her gallery, finding quite a bit of inspiration.
I selected April thank you! by jlazarski at Splitcoaststampers to case for the Challenge because it has a favorite old background AND I have strawberry stamps! The envelope was pre-stamped in a stash I recently uncovered, so I just added a strawberry.
I used a punch for the fruit, but the stem and leaves were fussy-cut because I wanted them in front of the berries.

Jessica's strawberry cards caught my eye too in her gallery. But I decided to go with a Christmas design instead to work toward the goal I need before December gets here. Your card is awesome!

Well, that was so sweet of you to share this delight with us. I love that sentiment as much as I love that great diamond dp layer. Kudos on the fussy cutting the leaves. They look great and I think having them in front of the berries really takes the card design up a couple notches. Wonderful card, Gayle, and, truly, a very sweet way to say thanks.

Love the berries as they grabbed my attention first, but the embossing, papers, ribbon and sentiment are also fabulous. This card is super fabulous. LOVE IT! Into my faves. Hugz

Wow, Gayle this is just the sweetest looking card. Your fussy cutting is impressive. I like how you got in the harlequin pattern with that great ef. Perfect choice of ribbon and wonderful colors on this!!
