Strawberry Shutter Fold

There's a first time for everything, and today is the first time I've ever created a shutter fold card! Lots and lots of fun!!
I chose the Juicy Strawberries digi from Power Poppy as my focal point and coordinated my paper with the colors of my image.
I printed three images and colored them with Prismacolor pencils. I then used baby oil to blend the colors, and after it dried I added some details with a Sharpie marker and white gel pen. I cut out four strawberries and using dimensional tape popped up on the main image and added the fourth to the inside panel. The three on the front also have clear glitter on them to add extra sparkle and shine!
A strip of Washi tape and one tiny strawberry decorate the inside panel where I'll write my message.
 Supplies and Tools:
Juicy Strawberries digi (Power Poppy), Prismacolor Pencils, Baby Oil, Sharpie Marker, White Gel Pen, Clear Glitter, Tiny Pearls, Hello Doily Dies (Sizzix), Washi Tape
