This week's Friday Focus over at Flourishes is brought to you by Danielle..
She has challenged us to "Kick off Summer"...
Last week I saw Maki use this Easter Basket set with flowers in it..
What says summer more than these sweet ripe strawberries.
Colored with copics from the Flourishes Collection sets.
I added the awesome lace from the Flourishes Ribbon
Collection (Ivory Crocheted). I cut out and weaved the
bottom of the card to make it look like my basket.
Be sure to head on over to the Flourishes Blog to see what Danielle cooked

I am also adding this to the Stamping Sister's In Christ Challenge this week.
Peggysue is hosting this week. I always love her insight.. She challenged
everyone to make a card with distressing. She chose this scripture:
Isaiah 64:6,
"But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our
righteousness as
filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf;
and our iniquities, like the
wind, have taken us away."

oh...just noticed. Thanks for joining the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge.
Fresh strawberries here sure do mean the beginning of summer. There is nothing like putting a warm strawberry in your mouth right after picking it. You have certainly captured summer in this card. I absolutely love the basketweaving you've added. Such a wonderful touch.
ReplyDeleteI am trying so hard to catch up on my blog hopping and not only to stop by once but to take a long visit through recent weeks. I love the patriotic creations you have made (I'm moving backwards) and I just had to stop by here to comment on this clever card. The woven papers coordinating with the basket image are brilliant! Warmest wishes, Lesley
