Mona is our challenge hostess today. She asked us to use a fruit image on our project. I had to use the strawberry image. Ever since I can remember, on my birthday my Mom would make the first strawberry cake of the season. I continued this tradition (except for this year….I need to loose some pounds and that cake does not help with that.).
I stamped the big image of the Strawberries stamp set twice in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on white cardstock, colored it with Copic Markers (Strawberries YG03, R08, R24, R29, R39 Flowers: Y21, Y35, Y38, T0, T3 Leaves: YG01, YG03, YG17 Background: B0000, B000) and cut and embossed with a Standard Circle Nestabilities die. Part of one image was adhered on top of the other. The circle was adhered to a piece of white cardstock, cut and embossed with the largest Splendid Circles Nestabilities die.
Two pieces of Bo Bunny Country Garden Patterned Paper were cut and embossed with a Grand Rectangle Nestabilities die. The edges were sanded and stitched and May Arts Ribbon was tied around around the vertical strip. The layers were adhered to the card base, white cardstock cut and embossed with a Grand Label 23 die.
A sentiment from the Strawberries set was stamped in Tuxedo Black Ink on a piece of white cardstock cut and embossed with a die from the Home Sweet Home die pack. The embossed part was colored with Copic Markers B0000 and B000 before the tag was tied to the bow with embroidery thread and a button. Want2scrap bling finish off the card.

Beautiful Beate! Wonderfully coloured! I love how you always colour the background and I need to do that more often. Today I’m hoping to stop at a LSS after work and I want to look at their selection of Flourishes images. Really want to practice colouring some floral images!
thanks for the recipe, my mom always made what she called black forest cherry cake. back in the 50s we had to go to a german store in st. louis to find the metric measuring cup. she was from frankfurt and i was born in wiesbaden. came here when i was 3or4. love german cooking. my favorite is german potato pancakes.
