Berry Sweet

I don't know about you, but I just love fresh strawberries. They are one of my favorite signs of summer.

I made this card using the new Strawberries & Watermelon digital stamp set from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. These look so yummy I just want to wash them off and dig in. I paired them up with a doily I have had sitting out for a while and some lace.


Here is a look at the dimension on the card. I used pop dots between the layers.






Here is a look at the complete set. You can get the entire set of 7 images for just $5, which I think is a bargain. You will definitely be seeing more projects from me using these. Lindsay has several new sets in the store so you might want to go check it out.





Please stop by the rest of the DT to see the eye candy they created for you this week. As always, Lindsay will have a freebie on her blog.
