Need Any Strawberries?


I’ve been thinning out my strawberry patch. I cleaned out a ton of them over the weekend and some again this morning. Frankly I’m tired of playing in that particular plot of dirt. But all my neighbors and several co-workers are strawberry plant rich now too. I’ve given away 20+ plants to 10 people already. I have enough left for two or three more strawberry lovers.

I’m hoping folks will grab them up tomorrow. Because after this weekend, I’m finished messing around with these things! I hate to send the leftovers to the trash. But I’ve already started two new strawberry beds at my house and I simply don’t want anymore. I think I’m starting to see strawberries in my sleep now.

Last year I purchased this little mouse stamp and made several cards from it. The photos here are examples of three of them. I think this little fella might just be berried out for a while too. Isn’t he just the cutest?! If you click on the photo you can read about the methods used to create the cards.
