WMS Blog Party Strawberry




First Waltzingmouse Blog Hop of 2013



Hi, the theme for those of you who don't know is.. LOVE, HEARTS  and all things mushy
Well, I LOVE strawberries they can be a bit mushy 
and I see a bit of a heart shape in it.
 It really was more love. I would have loved to do one with love of country, but did not have the stamps for that. I, for a change
 like the way this turned out. 
Keeping it short so you can see what the others came up with. The strawberry is heat embossed.

That strawberry looks good enough to eat! Such a great idea to put it inside the seed packet with that great gingham background. Such a bright cheery card on a cold windy day here!

This is creative and different. Your strawberry looks incredible, and I love those little pearls you put on. Great idea to combine those sets, too. I am excited because you made me realize that strawberry season is coming soon.

Gee, Marybeth, I had to scroll down a REALLY long way to leave my comment!! (I couldn't resist!)

Your card is, literally, scrumptious! OMG, you have so made that a real-looking strawberry, with the added pearly dewdrops. Genius!! And I'm a sucker for gingham, which here is perfect and picnicky for strawberries!

Thank you so much for your sweet anniversary wishes BTW! I'm sorry it's taken me so long to say that. I took some time off the computer to celebrate with Mister and I'm slowly making my way through the wonderful wishes everyone left.

Can you let me know when your anniversary is and link up a photo over on Ardyth's blog? It's so fun seeing them all in the thumbnails and I'd love it if you could add yours!

Thanks again! I'm not a football person normally, but have to add, Go 49ers!! Mwah! Darnell
