Papercraft Star

Happy Wednesday friends ...
I had a lovely lunch and catch up with my GF's yesterday ... We really don't do it often enough and I always feel so much happier when we've had a relaxing few hours together ...

So today I have my DT project for this weeks challenge at Papercraft Star


As you can probably guess from this photo ... the theme this week is 
"Fruit"

Whilst those strawberries look so delicious ... my preference are raspberries ... though having suffered from kidney stones in the past ... I have to be very careful ... seems the seeds in fruit can cause these stones ...
Anyway ... I found a lovely vintage image on the web for this challenge 


and used papers from Websters Pages 'Cherry Pie' as my background


I made the flower with burlap, tulle and fabric ... and a little help from a TH die
The button is from my supplies 


A sticker from October Afternoon and some lace just finish it off

The girls at Papercraft Star have some more inspiration for you and Steph is our featured designer this week using digitals from our sponsor THATB.
You have till Monday 13th August 6am EST us time to link up your entries ... so I hope you'll join us and have fun!

Keep safe

Oh wow Ros you really dressed up that burlap! The flower looks great along side the fabic. Love your color scheme. I myself enjoy the strawberries if I only could have a taste of them before my daughter gobbles them all up!
