I love strawberries, and Ontario strawberries picked right from the field still warm from the sun, are some of the best in the world (but I'm a bit prejudiced). So, it was natural that I would select a strawberry for this card.
Using a template in the Stamparatus I stamped the strawberry from the stamp set "Fruit Bowl" in a circle - the berry Real Red; the topper in Granny Apple Green - on a Whisper White square. The square was matted with Real Red card stock and then added to the card front.
The card base of Real Red was matted with Whisper White card stock with a 1/2" strip of retired Tutti Fruiti DSP at the top and bottom
The sentiment was stamped with Black Memento on a strip of Whisper White notched at both ends and after matting with Real Red card stock, was added to the circle using dimensionals.
Just for interest - did you notice the little pear?
Supplies Used:
Stamp: Fruit Bowl
Ink: Black Memento, Real Red, Granny Apple Green
Papers: Real Red, Whisper White, Tuttu Fruiti DSP
Accessories: Stamparatus, Dimensionals.

Strawberries are one of my favorites and I like how you created a yummy circle with those juicy berries! Thanks for playing along over at The Paper Players this week!
Your wreath of berries is just delightful, and my mouth is watering, thinking about eating them fresh from the patch!! I didn't like strawberries when I was a kid...I didn't like anything with seeds, and those little seeds sticking out all over made me give them a thumbs down. As an adult, I've made up for lost time, because I love them!!! Love your card too! Thanks for sharing it with us at the Players this week!
Fun idea to make a wreath of berries..so creative! AND cute. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players!
