Pink Strawberries?

Hey everyone - happy Monday! It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month & the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is Think Pink. Their team created with Pink & Main products so I thought I would too! 


Supplies: Paper - Spellbinders A2 card;
Paper Studio basic cardstock; Lawn Fawn Plaid;
Core'dinations kraft; Neenah Solar White
Stamps - Pink & Main Berry Happy
Dies - Pink & Main Berry Pop Up;
Other - foam tape; scrap of ribbon;
various Hero Arts inks for shading; white gel pen

Have you ever heard of pink strawberries? I hadn't until I googled them and found Pineberries; how cute are these?? So I went for my Pink and Main strawberry basket set. It makes a pop-up but with some trimming, you can use the  pieces without the interior walls for a flat A2 card. If you want to see it as a pop-up, please go HERE - I made one at Paperganza this summer.

Simply die cut and assembled the basket, then added it to an A2 card with a plaid mat. Stamped a sentiment from the coordinating stamp set and die cut it with the tag included with the basket set. Added a pink ribbon to the tag and adhered it to the basket with foam tape - done! This card will go to my niece who has a birthday later this month.

I will also add my card to Seize the Birthday #314 using the Anything Goes option.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!

I love it when craft supplies are used in ways other than what they were intended for. That's true creativity. And your basket of pink strawberries looks wonderful and delicious.
