This card is going to Doreen in Arlington Texas who is recovering from her 2nd kidney transplant. I love this strawberry background stamp but don't use it often enough so I'm thrilled to have an opportunity to ink it up. This is a straight forward flat card. The bg is coloured with copics the tag is a SU punch and I cut a white oval for the sentiment. The tag and single strawberry are popped up. Bit of doily action to countrify things a bit and there you have it.

Countrified yes (did I spell that right?). But, wow, is this ever elegant! Beautifully colored, the tag is precious, and I love the doilies in the corners.

Oh my gosh Elizabeth, I keep looking a this amazing card and I can't believe your colouring. I love the layout and the doilies look terrific. The dp has a lovely country feel to it and sets of the strawberries and leaves so perfectly.

The more I come to this challenge the more yummier these berries look and the more hungrier I get. What a perfect time to use that pertty bg stamp. It's so neat. Beautifully colored, it looks like its own paper not just this stamp...well done, especially with all the " countryfing " TFS..:0)
