Strawberry Fields

I needed to make some Thank You cards for my box and when I discovered this Strawberry Paper by "Paper Patch" in my stash (seriously, it's at least 5 years old!! OMG!! Do Paper Patch even still exist?) I knew it would be so cute with my Papertrey Ink Strawberries and cute sentiments! The green/cream stripe by Chatterbox is probably also about 5 years old too... man I need to get cracking on using up old supplies! I'm trying!!

So I stamped the Strawberries and the "Thank you Berry Much" sentiment onto a white scallop oval I cut out with my Marvy punch. I love that red and white spotty ribbon, it's so luscious and bold, it really sweetens up these cards!

And of course, when you're onto a good design.. stick with it! I made 3 cards in total with the green/red/strawberry design. This second one is probably my fave cos I love those 2 big flowers! Oh that's another thing I haven't even put a dint in, in the last 3 years. My prima flower collection. Do they multiply in the jars? Cos I have used so many and the level of flowers in the jars seem to be exactly the same!! What the?

This third card uses another one of the sentiments in the Papertrey set.. "May the Simple Joys of Life be Yours". How sweet is that! I thought it also went nicely with the Strawberries. My Real Red SU stamp pad is just so juicy that it made it hard to stamp out that little strawberry clearly. And when I stamped this one it splashed a tiny little red dot of ink on the white scallop.. so annoyed!! So I covered it with 2 little bling kaisercraft jewels! HA!! That'll teach you red stamp pad, I am infallible!
