Stampers Dozen Blog Hop…Sweet Summertime

Welcome to the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month the theme is Sweet Summertime.  When you read that what came to mind?  Something we look forward to every summer is strawberry season.  We rarely buy strawberries any other time of the year and instead wait for the time Washington strawberries are ready.  The season is short but oh so sweet!!  This year the season seemed to be shorter than ever since we experienced very hot weather right around the time the berries were ripening.  

A trio of  strawberries created using the Sweet Strawberry bundle.  The sweet berries are mounted on tags made using the Tailor Made Tags dies.   In addition to the berries I added a few blooms accented  with  Matte Black dots.  The check paper is from the Pattern Party DSP which is a fabulous pack of paper that is available as a Stampin' Reward.  The background is one of the stamps from the Sweet Strawberry set stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

I have to laugh, I must have really missed the Black Glitter paper since I have used it a lot lately.  This item will be returning in August.  I used a new die from the upcoming mini catalog release called Christmas Cheer dies to cut out the happy.  Yes, I am thrilled to not have to fussy cut it, now if i can just have more word dies. 

Now it is time to check out what the rest of the team created.
