Scor-Pal and American Crafts Blog Hop



The Scor-pal DT has teamed up with American Crafts to bring you a blog hop that is sure to inspire! You will want to start at the Scor-Pal Blog to see the full list of designers as well as the prizes that are being offered.When I saw all of the adorable accessories that went with the Garden Cafe line, I knew that these little paper strawberries would be a fun way to welcome spring! I

The strawberry template came from the Whiff of Joy blog.  I just used the template, and scored all of the folds with my Scor-pal.  I used a Crop-o-dile to punch the holes at the top of each "petal" and then Scor-tape held the tab firmly in place. The Twinery's Baker's twine  was used to lace the top together.  The strawberry top was made using  a Punch Bunch Cherry Blossom punch instead of the template provided.. The strings were drawn together and pulled through the leafy top, and tied in a bow.

The box that holds the strawberries was made using the Christmas Treats Basket Tutorial from Scor-pal. It is such a quick but cute basket to put together, and was a great canvas to add some of the AC dimensional stickers.

We hope you will enjoy this hop!
