We love fresh picked berries

 We had another snow day today-so I got to stay inside and be a little crafty! It was fun to make a layout about a hot summer day. Every year we pick cherries, but there was an early frost in 2012 which killed the cherry crop. So when we went to Virginia to visit my sister we thought it would be fun to pick our own blueberries and blackberries.

The we and heart were cut from the give a hoot cricut cartridge, I used a MCT stamp to stamp the words love on the purple heart. The rest of the title is cut using the country living cartridge. When I embossed the letters I had used my glue pad on the embossing folder, afterwards I sprinkled the title with purple glitter and it stuck to the embossed design. I had seen people ink their folders before embossing and thought I would give glue a try-and it worked!

All the paper and embellishments are from Imaginisce, except for the blue background paper. I used the I-rock to make the blue heart and dots on the paper.

 I also used the I-rock to make a blackberry, and just cut out the leaves by hand.
