Here is the sketch . . .
And here is my design . . .
There were a few things that had me stressed about this card. First, sticking to one layer and trying desperately not to mess up the stamping (stamping in the wrong spot or smearing the wet ink after they were stamped). Second, I was so torn when cutting off the tops of that bottom layer of berries, but I wanted to stay true to the sketch . . . so I cut the stems . . . Ouch! Third, white seeds or black seeds? Quite a dilemma. I went with white.
I have to say that the seeds were therapeutic. I was so concerned at first with being symmetrical with the stamp, and then I realized that the seeds in a strawberry are far from symmetrical. So I went a little rogue with the seed stamps.
Hope you can find some time today to create from your stash!
