fantastic fruit

Happy Thursday crafty friends and welcome to July! We are finally getting some hot weather here and I love it. It's time for another Seize the Birthday challenge and this time, Colleen has picked fruits for the theme. I don't have a lot of fruit stuff so I decided to have them be more of an accessory instead of the main part. I love these fun Happy Hour drink dies. I couldn't find the ice cube die from that set so had to improvise with the negative of a mesh die from another set (which I can't remember the name of). The drink and fruit colours are courtesy of Distress Oxides. 


Head over to  the blog to give our Surprise Party Guest Julia, previous winner Fran, and the rest of the DT some crafty love for their spectacular creations. Hope you can play along with us.



Have a terrific day and a wonderful upcoming weekend. 
Thanks for stopping by.
Glenda
