Sugar High

I have had this layout in mind for years, collecting strawberry embellishments but never quite finding the right paper, until now. I loved my Grandad and spent a lot of time with both my grandparents when I was little as both my Mum and Dad worked. We spent as much time in the garden as is possible bearing in mind the British weather. LOL. Every year he would grow strawberries in the veggie patch at the end of the garden and we would watch them grow and grow until at last they were ready for picking. No one but me was allowed the first strawberry of the year, even when I was at school, it was kept in a bowl for me until I called in on my way home. Special times, precious memories.

The papers, overlays (words) and die cuts used are from the Sugar High range from My Little Shoebox. The mini alphabet stickers come in 6 colours and are also from MLS. The frame around the top right photo was in fact a die cut tag - I used a craft knife to cut out the middle.

Extras from my stash:
Strawberries - Artoz
Garden buttons - Jesse James
