Shopping Our Stash GDT Project Challenge #271

This week for Shopping Our Stash Challenge #271, it is a Apple for Teacher, or use fruits/veggies or make a teacher appreciation card.

I am still over the moon for being a Guest Design Team member and for the last challenge I am using some stamps I have not used in a very long time.

 I started off using the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangles from both sets, the largest.

I am using some heavy weight weight card stock from Hobby Lobby and some Crumb Cake card stock from Stampin UP.

 I am using a Stamps of Life stamp and die set called strawberries2stamp.

I used Real Red and Emerald Envy card stock along with Versa Fine Black Onyx ink.

 Using a scrap of Crumb Cake card stock and matching ink along with a wood grain back ground stamp set.

I cut them into 1/4 inch strips after stamping.

I started off weaving them back and forth to see how many I would need.

I have them on my 4 by 5 1/4 inch stiched white rectangle for size comparison.

 I decided I needed five each way and brought them close together.

I added the strawberries using some foam and then flipped it over and added more foam.

 Again using the white rectangle for comparison I cut a angle pattern on each one.

I have added no liquid glue or tape runner just the foam holding it all together.

 I am combing two stamps sets and its OK they will not scream when you cut them so go ahead get more life from them.

I am using the strawberries2stamp from Stamps of Life and a My Pink Stamper School Days set.
