Apple Harvest

Hi everyone! So good to see you today. I wanted to share this beautiful set from Flourishes Stamps. It is called 'Apple of My Eye' and you can find it here. What an awesome stamp company, they have such beautiful images. Please check them out if you haven't yet.



Here is a shot of the main image which is from the Flourishes stamp set 'Apple of My Eye'. I stamped the apple image on Georgia Pacific White paper and then used my Copic Markers to color with: O, W0, W1,W3, E41, E43, R0000, R000, R12, R21, R27,
R29, R89, Yg0000, G12, G20, G21, G28. I know, I use a lot of colors when I color but I just can't help it. I used Label's Ten Nestability from Spellbinders and sponged around the image while it was still in the die with Destressed Ink Antique Linen. I added Book Corners form Bonnie's Best.



Here is a close up of the easel base. I used an image form 'Vintage Picnic' stamp set form Papertrey Ink. You can find the set here. I just love this set because it can be used for so many occasions. The word apple is form the Flourishes set ' Apple of My Eye'. I went over the letters with a clear glaze pen. I stamped the smaller apple form 'Apple of My Eye' on polyshrink with Black Stazon ink and colored it with Stampin' Write Markers, then shrunk it with my embossing gun. The Ribbon is 'Pure Poppy' from Papertrey Ink and the little white apple blossom buttons are from my button stash. I had to add some bling so I glued several Red Swarovski crystals across the top to hold the main image from slipping forward when standing.

I made this little plaque for my stamping buddies just because I love them. I made each of them a little different so the two gals who haven't gotten theirs yet will still be surprised. I had so much fun designing this piece not only because it was for my friends but because it had to do with CHOCOLATE! What could be better than that? (tee hee).
Here are the details:
Stamps: Chocolate Delight House- Mouse and I Love Chocolate House-Mouse
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette, GP White, Doodle Bug designer paper
Accessories: Copic Markers, Copic Glitter Pens, Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder, Sugared Brads, Swarovski Crystal Rhinestones, Stampin Dimensionals, White Satin and Brown and White Polka Dot Satin Ribbon from Paper Trey Ink, I love this store!Ticket Corner punch, Metal Corners form Bonnies Best,( a wonderful place for embellishments). and last but not least Rain Dot Hearts.

I covered the front and back of a piece of firm chipboard with Chocolate Chip card stock and added a little hanger on the back. I used a piece of my hardware hodgepodge for this.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a blessed day.
