For a Friend Who Loves Fairies

I have a friend who loves fairies and who also loves strawberries.So she gets this card I think. Over on the Daring Cardmakers challenge site the subject this week is Fruit. I tried printing out a picture of some fruit but wasn't over the moon with it then remembered this strawberry stamp which came with a copy of Craft Stamper last year. I've never used it so thought I'd give it an outing. I stamped it several times and gold embossed it and then coloured with pencils glazed over with Sakura clear glaze. The image it from a set of Match It Fairies which I've had for ages and so far only used one. It's difficult to take a decent photo of as the silver reflects. The backing paper is from the Crafter's Companion Flower Fairies CD.
Thanks very much for visiting.

A lovely card. I think Faries are the in thing at the moment. This one is lovely and the strawberry's are just scrummy. My Mum always told me I was destined to sit on a cushion and eat strawberrys and cream all day, I'm still waiting!!!
