Happy Sunday, everyone! Today, Nance is our hostess at the Paper Players, and she has a theme challenge:
Of course, everyone knows an apple for the teacher is very apropos for the first day of school! So I made use of my new Perfectly Preserved set and matching framelits, with some Orchard Harvest DP, Natural Composition DP, wooden buttons, and some linen thread and grosgrain ribbon:
Oh, these fall colors and images just make me HAPPY! I also used the sketch from the Stampin’ Queens:
My apple is stamped on Textured Very Vanilla with Raspberry Ripple! FUN!
Hope you can play along too! Hop on over to the Paper Players blog where you’ll see a plethora of back-to-school goodies!!! I can feel the nip in the air!!!
More “stampin’” with Grammy…..can you see her right foot propped up against my rolling cardstock holder? Tooo funny!
Love this card. All those apples!! Yummy.
