Johnny Appleseed and I have something in common...we share the same birthday! Not only did Johnny Appleseed (John Chapman) plant apple seeds across the nation during the westward expansion, he carried the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as he walked, telling stories to young and old alike. So in honor of both of our birthdays, I've created an apple card for today.
Creative Nugget: Square layers of Vintage Cream and Bo Bunny DP were stitched to Early Espresso and mounted to a Vintage Cream card base...also a square. The Decorative Corner Dies fit perfectly around the DP square and little squares of Vintage Cream completed the background for the apple basket image. The Apples image was colored with Copic Markers and cut with a SB Classic Square Nestie. This panel was layered onto a SB Decorative Labels One Die cut from Early Espresso. The little birthday sentiment is from another stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs, Peaches, and was cut with a square punch. Pearls were colored and added to finish the card.
