You are Berry Special to me

I know...you're probably getting sick of fruit cards...but here's another one. I decided to give this little strawberry a face. I think he turned out cute. I had to use my Gypsy to remove a few of the spots...so I had room to stamp the little face. Again....a lot of scraps were harmed in the making of this card. I swear...those scraps breed in my drawers. I actually throw out scraps that are too small now...otherwise my scrap space would be overtaken by loose paper pieces. Thanks for stopping by...Lee-Ann :)

I think this pea pod cut is too cute. I wanted to use a Peachy keen face stamp set on these...but I don't own a small enough one. I drew on the smiles with a Zig black marker and just added google eyes. I think they turned out cute. Thanks for stopping by...Lee-Ann :)

Thank You Berry Much

This is another fruit card in the set that I'm making using My Pink Stamper's Fruit and Veggie puns...and some Cricut carts that are neglected in my collection.

Birthday card

I made this card for the DAT'S Designing Divas blog challenge. Right now the challenge is suspended due to my city being a "disaster" from a failed pumping station. About 300 families were affected. My place is fine...but unfortunately DAT'S my LSS is not. It has been closed since the big rainfall. Donna, the stores owner...has her home attached to the store...and has been forced to move in with her family as her home isn't livable right now. Not to mention that her gorgeous scraproom was in the basement and is totalled. She was able to save some items...but lost so much. Therefore...our challenges are on hold until this can all be fixed.We were to make a Canada Day card or a birthday card. I chose to do a Birthday card. I used this beautiful new line of paper from MME-On the Sunny side. Thanks for looking...Lee-Ann :)
