You’re The Berry Best with Laurel

Hey everyone, happy Friday. This week’s inspiration just gives me all the feels. Who else just loves vintage and the stories that are behind the items?

I was inspired by the theme, the colors, the gingham and sketch (I guess pretty much everything) for my card. I pulled out the Strawberry Fields collection from Echo Park.

To tell the truth, I attempted some die cut strawberries using my Silhouette but lately I fight more with it than use it and for this card I fought more with it and thus decided to do my tried and true… fussy cutting LOL.

I actually was able to use some of my scraps on this card which always makes me happy. I added stitching and scallops to carry out the homespun feel. I left the bottom with no sentiment as I thought it could be added later – either teacher, mom, friend… when I decide to use the card.

I fussy cut the strawberries from pattern paper and then mounted on foam squares.

That’s all for me today. Hope you have a great weekend and can’t wait to see how you are inspired.
