An Apple a Day...

If you are looking for my Stop and Scrap Giveaway, click HERE or scroll down to the last post. If you didn't see it, I get to giveaway a $25 gift certificate, and 3 $10 gift certificates! Also...in case you didn't know, they are having a great sale today only - 25% off everything except pre-order items! Use coupon code "FRIDAY." 

Okay, on to the rest of my post! I have kind of a funny card today - isn't this sentiment the cutest?!?!?


I stamped the image from Unity Stamps, and paper-pieced it - which in hindsight was a bit ambitions. Those are some TINY pieces!!! The sentiment is from the same set - Apple Cheddar Soup.


Did some Machine stitching, inked the edges of the paper with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Antique Linen, then added some Bakers Twine bows.


The pattern paper is all from Basic Grey's Picadilly collection.


Now - I am entering this in the Unity Friday Friends with Flair, as well as the Challenge over at LaVikingascrapp to use either Basic Grey or Graphic 45 paper. I also think this fits well for the weekly challenge on the Basic Grey blog - go bold with color!
