I covered my strawberry in crystal effects because we weren't allowed any cream - unless we come in the back door. I just hope that Cindy doesn't have to get out the garden hose this week if the cream starts flying. I've never heard of such rowdy tea parties before, but let me tell you they sure are fun!

Hi Lorraine! Sorry I was late coming to the door! I had a stamp class in the middle of my teaparty last night!
What a great idea to pull out the garden hose! Thanks for the suggestion, I was wondering what on earth would do the trick! Do they pay you to think like that? Snort!
Your card is precious! I love a pretty red strawberry against a stark white background and your little ribbon embellishment is perfection! Love the coordinating brads and piercing in the corners!
Hey, you are no dummy, making a white card was brilliant, can't even see the whipped cream that got smeared all over it the minute you walked through the *front* door!
So glad you could come! Thanks for the link and great clean-up tip! Might come in handy in the weeks to come!

What a sweet little card!! I love that you combined the color challenge!!... I still haven't done the CC this week yet!
I love the layout of your card, and the little ribbon accent is so cute! I always LOVE when people do CAS cards. I struggle with them so much. Yours is just perfect!!

Very pretty! Your strawberry looks yummy and I love the ribbon tab! That is one of my favourite ways to quickly add ribbon without adding the bulk! Thanks for the warm welcome to the teaparty
