Every year, around this time, I design a project inspired by Wimbledon for my Card & (Your) Cuppa Class.
These projects are normally in Wimbledon colours. However, as we now have a Strawberry Bundle (Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and Strawberry Builder Punch), it seemed appropriate to make a strawberries and cream project for this year.
Using the Stitched With Whimsy Dies and cutting around the outside edge, the Gorgeous Grape picnic blanket takes shape. I then added a grid pattern using my Simply Scored.
After this was attached, it was time to create the bowl of strawberries.
Layering circles in Very Vanilla and Daffodil Delight are stuck together and have their edges curled using a Paper Folder.
The strawberries, in Poppy Parade and Real Red have a touch of extra colour and shading added with a Sponge Dauber. Next, the stalks complete them.
These are added to the bowl, with the three front ones raised up on dimensionals.
A sentiment, from the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set, part of a Bundle, is tucked behind the bowl.
Finally, some Opal Rounds add some sparkle.
If you want to see some of my previous Wimbledon projects, here are links to the 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017 designs.
