Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

I just couldn’t resist, so here I have another strawberry card.  These layering strawberries from Strawberry Jude Stamps are the best.

• Ink Pad Colors for Strawberries – 1 (bottom layer) Memento Angel Pink, 2 Simon Says Stamp Teeny Bikini, Stamp this layer again using My Favorite Things Persimmon for a brighter berry.  3  This layer is not needed since it will be covered with chocolate. 
• Ink Pad Colors for Leaves – 1 (bottom layer) Simon Says Stamp Green Apple, 2 Simon Says Stamp Green Leaf, 3 My Favorite Things Gumdrop
• Nuvo Crystal Drops Gloss, Dark Walnut – for the chocolate
• Sakura Glaze Clear Gel Pen – Apply to the strawberry tops and leaves.
• Scissors to cut out the berries.
• Mounting Dots to adhere strawberries with dimension.

This was a fun card to make, and I am pleased with the way it turned out.  I’ve had chocolate-covered strawberries on my mind to make a card for since Valentine’s Day.  Right now, while there are no holidays or birthdays to rush about for, I should make some REAL chocolate-covered strawberries!  Especially since strawberries are coming in season.  Now that’s a thought.  Hmmmm….

Thanks for joining me,

Tricia
