Hungry Strawberry Mouse

 I fell in love with this Strawberry Mice workshop set from CTMH.  Sadly, it was only available for a short time...maybe it will come back?  LOL  The hanging strawberries are from one of the great CTMH digi sets called Backyard Bliss.  If you cut with a Cricut, you can actually turn the digi set images into digital stamps (print and cut).  After Paper Piercing below the checkered paper I hand stitched some black thread into Xs.  I also embossed one of the sentiments from the stamp set. I watercolored the stamped images, including the strawberry on the bottom.


Thanks for looking!
