Since I've been having fun playing with our Rock My World Stamp Set and Die Set lately, I immediately wanted to make strawberries with our rocks! And here is my take!
Easy peasy, right?
When I got to finish the card, I decided to add one more strawberry to the left. Don't be afraid to stamp off the edge!
These strawberries make me so happy! :) The sentiment "you're sweet" is a sneak peak to a stamp set in our next release! ;) Hope that you will join us on August 1-5 for the introductions. Starting next Monday, we will be sharing more sneak peaks on our social media outlets! Stay tuned~~

Since I've been having fun playing with our Rock My World Stamp Set and Die Set lately, I immediately wanted to make strawberries with our rocks! And here is my take!
How to Make Strawberries from Your Rock Stamps
1. Stamp the rocks on the card front.
I'm using the reverse side of the "live, laugh, love" rock to get a solid image.
2. Stamp the leaves (from Flower Circles Stamp Set) and cut out.
Cut about 1/16" away from the stamped image will actually give it a more finished look.
3. Use a black pen to add some random dots to your "strawberries".
Wait until your ink is dry on paper to do this. The dots do not need to be perfect.
4. Use a white gel pen to add the seeds.
Use the gel pen to cover part of the dots to mimic the look of strawberry seeds.
5. Glue your leaves on.
Try to use the leaves to compliment the shapes of your strawberries.
Easy peasy, right?

Beautiful Nina! I just love this tutorial! I just made a card featuring a pet rock and was lamenting the fact that I didn’t have this set! My rock ended up looking more like a potato! Looking forward to your new release, although I still have this stamp and your flower stamp on my wishlist!
