Fruit & Flowers

I saw a card much like this on Pinterest and I really wanted to make it.  But I didn't have the set with the apples in it.  So I looked through my stamps to see what apples I had.  I found this apple in the Fruits & Flowers set.  I had bought that set because I thought it was cute and I had never used it.  So it was fun to be able to finally play with it!


The original card was found here.  I didn't pay attention to the design of the original card so when I went to add the dots to the bottom I added a few rows too many.  But it worked and it still looks good.  

After coloring in each apple I cut them out.  I set them in place on the card but didn't tape them.  My eye was not liking what it saw, the card still needed something.  These apples had a heart in the center and I had colored the center edges in using Cherry Cobbler but it just wasn't enough.  Then I got out the heart punch and punched 3 out of Real Red card stock.  I taped them in place and took the Chocolate Chip marker and added the seeds and that was exactly what the apples needed.


The words are from the Just Believe set.  And that was it.  It's a very clean and simple card to make!  It was fun and quick too!

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
