How hungry does this card make you feel?! If I'm not crafting, I'm usually in the kitchen, I love cooking and baking and I'm an avid jam and preserve maker. I make loads of edible gifts for Christmas and my friends start mentioning my chili jam to go with their Christmas cheeseboards in about July!
These lovely papers were free with Quick Cards Made Easy and they reminded me of this gorgeous digi form A Passion For Stamps as soon as I saw them. I've coloured the image with Promarkers (what else?!) and added tiny beads to the strawberries to look like seeds. I've added a wee hint of colour round the edge of the topper with Distress Ink in Antique Linen.
The "With Love" ticket is a Papermania Urban stamp, stamped onto kraft and the "Bliss" ticket is a Tim Holtz one.
The strawberry flowers were made with an Xcut punch and leaves were die cut with Marianne dies.
Some red mirri Card Candi, a gingham bow and a few gems finish it off.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Crafty Catz - #126 - use a digi image
The Deconstructed Sketch - #45 - sketch
I Love Promarkers - #110 - bead it, must use beads
Tuesday Throwdown - #91 - outside the box

Hi Wendy, Oh how delicious these look l love scones especially with lots of cream and jam so mouth watering:)x
ReplyDeleteOh Wendy, just as well I am going to the Mils for lunch - ploughmans - sun is shining and were going to eat in the garden - Anyway this is a sumptious card, and I am now very hungry and hope we have cream teas to follow. Yummy yummy. And Chilli jam sounds very cool with a great piece of strong cheddar. hugs lisa xx
ReplyDeleteOh it does make me feel a great urge for fresh strawberries Wendy.
ReplyDeleteI buy them year round from the supermarket, but they never have the aroma and taste of the ones from up the road which should be ready in about six week time - they 'strawed' them up a couple of weeks ago so know it's getting close.
Have a good Sunday.
