A Fruity Flourish

It's that time of year here, when the strawberries are fresh and ready to be picked. I love that time.  There's nothing better than fresh produce.  That's what inspired me to use my Flourishes strawberry stamp today.  I also had the spotlight technique in mind, and it worked well with this image.

Supplies:
All die cuts courtesy of spellbinders, copic markers for coloring, paper from my stash, TH distress ink sponged around the main image, cuttlebug embossing templates, corner piece by seven Gypsies.
