Hello, sweet friends! What a busy day it's been. I have two cards for you - one is this card for the latest remixed digital images - Juicy Strawberries. I absolutely love strawberries and have them on my cereal every day. So this was a fun card to color up these strawberries, and I fussed over what layout (what else is new for me - haha!). But I used one of the pretty Spellbinders borders and used it on top and bottom, inspired by one of the beautiful cards my DH gave me this Christmas. It has a pretty border like this with beautiful sparkly DP underneath. I used a more "country" DP for this image, and I even used sequins. I always love seeing them on other cards but just don't seem to feel they are right with my cards. What do you think? Well, they are there to stay with the glue I used - haha!
My DH has had three Supartz shots in his knee, and we'll see how he does after the fifth and last one. I know he is hoping to delay knee surgery, but time will tell. But I think he is seeing some improvement. As for me, I take it a day at a time. Some days a good and others - well, I sit and color!! Thanks for your continued prayers for my DH and me.
Well, my sweet friends, thanks for taking a closer look at my card, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week. Happy Monday!
Stop by my blog for more details and to see both cards and the new digis. (Hint: One is irresistible to anyone who loves to color, no matter whether it's a card or a coloring book - wink!)

Another wonderful card. Such a treat - two in one day from Cheryl. This is stunning - I love that perfect cross stitched design paper - matches the sweet country strawberries so well.

Perfect DP for a sweet, tasty treat. I may have to break my no digital tendency, I always loved that stamp when Flourishes had it. Those strawberries look just ready to pick, eat and enjoy.
