Good Morning. This weekend we will be celebrating our Thanksgiving here in Canada and so many blessings to be thankful for.
The challenge at Splitcoast this morning is from the Fine Art America site. So much to be inspired by but considering the season and the fact that I live near an apple farm I spotted this print and made a card. Who can resist a shiny, delicious apple.
I have had this apple stamp from Serendipity for a long time, so got it out. I stamped it twice, once on my card front being sure to center it then again on another piece of cardstock used for die cutting the tag. I left the image on my card front plain and coloured the image on the tag using Copic markers. I covered the apples with Glossy Accents to give them that shiny, apple delicious goodness.
When dry, I mounted the tag with pop dots over the first stamped image then stamped the sentiment from Paper Smooches under that.
I am adding my card to these challenges:
Virginia's View- CLEAN and SIMPLE
Little Red Wagon- GIVING THANKS
Addicted to Stamps- ANYTHING GOES
Tag You're It- INSPIRATION
Crafty Catz- AUTUMN
