Playing with Berries

Or rather playing with a palette which to me evokes the image of fruits such as plums, strawberries, blueberries and cranberries and so forth. It's this week's Play Date Cafe Challenge choice. They are all selected from an photograph of an exotic, richly-hued, flower. You just can't go wrong when taking inspiration from nature.

I dug out my spellbinders nestabilities and cut a variety of sizes from the Dahlia & Blossom sets, using card in the three different shades of red. I embossed them using a starburst pattern on the larger pieces and dots on all the rest. I inked the edges before scrunching up the petals to add dimension. The sentiment, stamped in the dark blue, is from Papertrey Ink and the scroll shape is another spellbinders die.
