A Very Berry Thursday!


I am up to my eye-balls in Strawberry Jam! I have been making it since yesterday. My final batch just came out of the water bath. I will be including a jar of it for my son's teacher for her end of year gift as well as some other *berry goodies*. I will post everything when I am done. So...with all my jam making, I haven't posted any creations for the last couple of days! I am sorry! I decided to post a card I made last week, but hadn't posted yet. The first time I saw this darling tree image from Papertrey Ink. it reminded me of some capris my daughter has with button apples on them. So...I decided to make a card using the same concept. It is simple and straightforward, but the buttons give it some interest. I also used my cuttlebug and my swiss dot embossing folder for some texture. Hopefully I will be posting more in the next few days. We are having a birthday party for my husband with my side of the family at my house tomorrow night, so I have lots to do! Thanks for fluttering by!
