Very effective Carol with the black embossing, I haven't seen that before.
Thank you for joining us at OLLCB.

Super sponging on those pears Carol, they really pop off the card. Your sentiment made me smile as it is so appropriate for those juicy pear images. I bought a pear tree last autumn so I am eagerly awaiting to see if it will bear fruit this year, but I have to wait as we are only just entering spring here. Enjoy your pears. Thank you so much for sharing this with us at Less is More xx
Oh, these are pretty pears. Love how they look and the color. My Aunt had 2 pineapple pear trees and they used to be loaded with fruit every year.
Thank you for sharing this fantastic card at Ooh-la-la, the pears are a beautiful focal point
SMASHING make, great to see the teal as the "white space" too

This is brilliant! What a super idea to use the teal as the background, and those pears really pop against it - your black shadow sponging is a great touch. Love the creativity! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)
