YOU'RE SO BERRY SWEET, BUGABOO!

I love strawberries - I think I have said it before, but I'll say it again!

I LOVE STRAWBERRIES!!!

So when Monday's Greeting Card Challenge at The Outlawz called for strawberries to be included, I jumped at the opportunity to create another card with this gorgeous Bugaboo image:



The image, called Berry Fairy Cupcake is available in the Bugaboo Stamps Store here.  I coloured the image using alcohol markers and added some glossy accents to the fruit.  The cupcake cake colouring is my attempt at making it look like one of those wafer cupcake cases - yum - I love those!
  The sentiment is a freebie from Tiddly Inks and the card is arranged according to a sketch from Challenge #111 at Craft Your Passion.  I added an embossed white card mat, three brads,  three flower gems and a glossy red satin ribbon.

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