A non-flower card for Grammy for Mother's Day. I grew up picking strawberries by the quart for my grandparents on the farm to sell. I earned a super shiny quarter for each one!!!! So this card is from all my sweet sweet memories of eating and picking those wonderful berries! I used some stickles on the berries.

This image is so adorable! Love the intense coloring and soft shading. I mentioned on someone else's card today that I remember the first time I ever tasted strawberries. I must've been about 5 years old, went with my cousin to her MeMaw's house and had strawberries and fresh-from-the-cow cream. Yum!

Wow! Those strawberries look good enough to eat! As a little girl, I also got a quarter for picking a quart of strawberries from my parent's patch- fond memories. Thanks for sharing your beautiful card!
