Strawberry Fields...

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see. It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out. -Beatles (Strawberry Fields Forever)
It's Sunday already...seems like it was just yesterday that I posted my last Cupcake Inspiration Challenge card...OH, Wait!!!! HAHAHAHAHA IT WAS!!! But this week I was on the ball! I set down my Droid for the hour it took me to make this card!!! YAY ME! Now if I could get laundry done, do some dishes, feed and bathe my kid...maybe I can say I am Not Addicted to my Smart...errr, SMART Phone!!!

I went pretty simple on my layout for my card, focusing mostly on the Strawberries and Flowers from the cupcakes...do you see the strawberries??? She hid them in there, they are green, like they are in my Mom's backyard!!! :) Oh, I can't wait for Ripe Strawberries!!! I grabbed some scraps from my Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety pack and a sentiment from Rosie's Sweets by Anita Be Stampin...then about a Gallon of Stickles and Voila! All done!!! The gems are from a Prima Gem Leaf shap I have had for AGES...like YEARS! I am determined to USE what I HAVE!! :)


More scraps on the inside, plus another sentiment from the same set...

Supples:
Stamps: Rosie's Sweets (Anita Be Stampin)
Paper: Garden Variety (Cosmo Cricket,) Pure Poppy, Harvest Gold (PTI,) Garden Felt (MFT)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Misc: Garden Variety Chipboard, Stardust Stickles, Taffeta Ribbon, Divine Twine, Vintage Buttons, Butterfly Die, Zva Roses, Prima Gems Shapes, Small Scallop Border Die

  4. I have a strawberry buddy, I may have to copy this for a card for her. We've been swapping berry presents for about 30 years now!
    Good luck using up your stash, I keep saying I'm not buying anything else, but....
