I made this after seeing Crystal's sample for Stamps and Smiles sketch challenge.
I just loved the colours she used and decided to 'have a go' as they aren't colours I usually put together.
I omitted the So Saffron colour, purely because I got carried away and forgot.
(Count the sun-rays on the box's label as the So Saffron)! LOL
I used the Fiskar's Threading Water border punch to add a little bit of an accent.
A Nestie scalloped circle behind a Leone EM Hollyhock punch-out behind a 1" circle punch-out, makes up the greeting.
The DP is SU DSP in Bashful Blue. (Not that you can see a lot of it). LOL
LOVE that turquoise CS. I coloured the stamped image with Copics and 'polished' the apples with Glossy Accents.
Well... Thanks must go to Crystal for her inspiration and to Jennifer for sourcing the Top Note Die for me, not to mention the ego boost she always gives me! ;0)
Thanks for stopping by, I love your visits. Viv xxx

Hi Viv, gorgeous card - love those shiny apples and that top note die is on my 'to get' list!
Sorry to hear about your hubby- must have been scary for you both. glad it wasn't heart attack (sure it wasn't to do with seeing all your 'stash' coming out your room during your cleaning sess?!!!! :P) Seriously though - hope they find out the cause soon. have a lovely sunday. Hugs, Fran xx

I love this card, the colours are great! I just need to ask, where did you get your punch that makes the slot for ribbons from? I see it every so often and would love one!
