Have you ever gone apple picking? It’s fun climbing up the trees to get those apples you think are the best. I had never gone apple picking until 4 years ago when my daughter was in college and we went to visit her during family weekend. She went to school in a beautiful area in NY state where there are plenty of apples to pick – and not to mention the apple cider doughnuts that we ate after we finished picking – loved them!
When I saw the apples in the Perfectly Preserved stamp set, it made me think of our apple picking time so I decided to include in the card one of my favorite tree stamps from the Thoughts and Prayer stamp set. I used the Apothecary Accent Framelits to frame the sentiment from Day of Gratitude, which I thought fit perfectly. And I certainly couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use my new Woodgrain Embossing Folder. To line up my apples, I used my trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig – it works great each time. See my post on the Stamp-a-ma-jig here.
This also happens to be one of the cards we made at this month’s card class. What do you think?
