Sweet sweet Strawberries

Hello and good morning friends!!

Today, I have a really cute creation to share with you!!

Have you seen, the images that are arriving at All That Scraps?!

OMG....if you haven't...you need to swing by there and check it out!!

They are all incredibly adorable and I know you will find something to love.

I fell in love with Strawberry Beatrice! 

She is just so cute and so sweet, with here strawberry hat!!

So with it all the summer fruit and flowers, I had an idea that had to be executed. 

Here is what I came up with.

Is this not the cutest thing?

I had this weaved basket sitting on my desk since Easter, when I thought I was going to make an Easter basket for another challenge...but that never happened. 

So in any case...I had to put it to use and here it is!!  All spruced up and filled with Strawberry 3D boxes, which were cut out using my Silhouette!!  I love my machine!!

Super cute and super sweet huh??

CropStop #76: Banners

Good morning-

Happy Thursday!!

We have a new and wonderful challenge for you today over at CropStop.

This weeks challenge is:

BANNERS

Although I don’t allows ways use them and frankly I don’t know why…I love banners and the way that they look on projects. So I was really excited to give it a chance.

Here is my weeks card:

Here is a close up of Honey BEE-trice.

Isn’t she adorable!! And check out the hexagon embossed pattern behind her. This is Craft Concepts Bees Delight embossing folders. I saw it and loved it at first site.

So if you love to use banners or love the look as much as I do, then I hope that you will come play with us this week. Look forward to seeing your creations.

Friends til the end.

Hi everyone-

Well I am so happy to say that I got some much needed crafty time in today.

Hubby was off and just gave me all the time I needed to get caught up on much needed assignments.

So I am running out of time for the weeks SFYTT- April.  I’ve had this images colored for a few weeks now and just haven’t had the time to put it together til today!!!  YEAH!!!

This is C.C. Designs Swiss Pixie Bouquet Birgitta and tree swing digital images that I have merged together, to make this gorgeous set.  Isn’t she pretty!!!  The papers I used on my card are from MME: Dolled Up. Unfortunately at this time the paper is no longer available on the ATS site, but that just means they are making room for more goodies!!!  YEAH!!!

Here is a close up:

I normally don’t do close ups of my coloring, but I am pretty proud of this piece!!!  LOL!!

Well that is it for me right now, make sure to come back later for my SweetStamps challenge post!!!
