A Single Strawberry


Hello, thank you for visiting me today. The other day i have tired to organize my papers.. what a mess... all the little scraps i can simply not toss in the trash....i need SOMETHING to hold them. I have made this card with some of the papers that had nothing matching from the same paper line. This card was made with bottom to top with Basic Grey, Making Memories and Cosmo Cricket papers. buuhuu.. my last scrap of that yummy strawberry paper is gone. I have spritzed the card with Shimmerz Babies breath - not sure if it shows on the picture to give it that hopefully vintage look. Stamps: Magnolia "Strawberry" can be found in the "Lazy Days of Summer Collection"
Embellishments: Shimmerz Spritz(Babies Breath), Joanns (lace), hardware sent by Carole, Stickles (Star Dust), Making Memories (red rhinestone brads), Pins a gift from Tina Bentley, Stampin up (ribbon)
Papers: a mix of scraps (Making Memories, Basic Grey and Cosmo Cricket)

This is a yummy strawberry. Too good to eat Claudia. I know what you mean about scraps- I just donated all mine to a friends niece who loves to stamp.
