Strawberry Patch...

Congratulations on your garden!  
This is a really easy version of a circle card - with just a brad to keep the circles together.  I used a Sissix to die-cut the circles and felt a swivel opening would be fun.  Additional flowers were added for the background along with distressed edges.  
Card swings open pivoting on the brad.
