CDAC PROGRESSIVE FREEBIE CHALLENGE #18

The last round of the CDAC Progressive Freebie Challenges (#18)  is currently underway and there are 5 summer related images up for grabs.  One of them is a delicious Doodle Pantry image of a Banana Boat Dessert *(mmm I remember having these as a birthday treat when I was a child).

Here is my inspiration for you:

.

I coloured the yummy image using alcohol markers and added some Glossy Accents to the cherries.  The image was cut out using the (Spellbinders?) die and then I popped it through the Cuttlebug again so those pretty cherries were embossed into the frame.

Here is a detail of the glossy cherries and the embossed frame:


There is a fabulous prize at the end of this round and you can read about it HERE

I would like to add this card to the following challenges too:
