Summer Strawberries

 


Card #1 inspired by 3 challenges...

Inspired By Challenge // #IB337 ...A photo inspired challenge!!  DRINKS!!  FRUITY DRINKS!!  This challenge also offers up an optional sketch, and today I used the sketch as well.

Allsorts Challenge // #AC824 ...An "anything goes" challenge with an optional theme.  BIRTHDAY is the optional theme for this current challenge.  No sentiment on the front but a happy birthday sentiment on the inside for a friend who loves fruit smoothies!!  My cup stamp is from Verve stamps (no longer in business), strawberry die is from Kat Scrappiness and my papers, vellum, & twine are from Stampin Up.  Card #2 is also a birthday card!!

Never Before Used Schtuff // #NBUS74 ...A "never been used" challenge!!  This tiny, adorable strawberry dies was a prize that I won for one of my cards.  Today I am using it for the very first time.



Card #2 was inspired by 5 challenges...

Addicted to CAS // #283 ...A "code word" challenge!!  BIRTHDAY is the code word for this current challenge.  B is for birthday!

Addicted To Stamps & More // #ATS&M493 ...A theme challenge!!  BIRTHDAY is the theme for this current challenge.

Color Throwdown Challenges // #ctd833 ...A color challenge!! Aqua, gray, and red are the colors called for in this challenge.  I was inspired by the photo depicting these colors...the garden theme and the monogram B.

Make My Monday // #MMM252 ...A theme challenge!!  GARDENING is the theme for this current challenge!!  There is alot of that going on at our house right now...picking sugar snap peas, blueberries, & squash and using the watering can alot because it is so dry.

Inspire.Create.Challenge // #ICC193 ...A theme challenge!! SUMMER VIBES!!  Nothing like a sunny, summer day for picking sweet strawberries!!
