Barbara chose some pretty colors for us this week in the Color Challenge.
For this weekâs Ways to Use It, Toni challenged us to use our scissors to snip elements for our card. Using Cinnamon Cider ink I stamped the Hardwood stamp on thin strips of Cinnamon Cider card stock. I sponged the edges of the strips of card stock and then wove them together to form the look of a portion of a berry basket. I snipped the ends of the strips at an angle. My strawberries are clipart which I downloaded, resized, printed and snipped around with my scissors and mounted on my woven strips. My sentiment is computer generated. I added a gem as an embellishment. Thanks for the fun challenges, Barbara and Toni!

What a clever, and thematically (is that a word?) perfect way to add in the scissors. I just love the creativity in this! You've really created a beautiful birthday card.

This card makes me long for spring and some sweet, juicy strawberries. Yours are so lifelike! But what I love most about this card is the amazing basketweave background. So inspiring--I need to try that! I love the fonts you chose for the greeting and the scalloped layer, too!
