Thank you BERRY MUCH

Hi everyone!

June is over, and so is the first half of the year!—Unbelievable how fast time flies!! 

I'd briefly like to remind you that we're now kicking off the second half of our Dream Factory challenge 

 

Cleaner

This month's theme is CAS—pretty simple, right?

...or maybe not! ;))

It's been months—if not a year—since I made a card based on a sketch but...

...yesterday I saw a sketch on my friend’s blog that inspired me to make this card. 

Of course I’m entering it in her challenge—after all, the sketch was what sparked my creation!

The fence and mouse images are once again from a picture book (Deco Time). They're so cute! I’ve already used them to make a card and an ATC. The foliage (Deco Time) is leftover from this pop-up card. The sentiment embossed on black cardstock is from Stampin’ Up.

You can see tiny strawberries (Studio Light) on the strip behind the mouse. To create them, I stamped tiny hearts and added tiny leaves with a felt-tip pen.

The yellow paper along the lower diagonal is patterned with white flowers. The design is so delicate that you have to squint to make it out—even up close!

For the two sets of three dots, I stamped tiny little flowers (Stampin'Up).

To add a nice finishing touch to the card, 

I cut out the panel using a scalloped die and then glued it onto a blank card.

The card looks a lot more complicated than it actually was. 

What took me the most time was coming up with the idea! LOL
