Here is the inspirational picture....so Let's get Fruity!!!!!
For my card this week I decide to use my new BasicGrey, Sweet Threads, 6x6 papers, painted brads and a Glazed Epoxy brad...such lovely fruity and summery colours in this collection...love it....my new fave BG papers, for now anyways,smile. Then I went in search of a stamp in my stash with fruit in it. I just so happened to have this absolutely adorable Belles N' Whistles stamp called Sunshine and Apples, on my desk and so I inked it up and coloured it with my Copic markers. I cut the image out with one of my older Nesties Label 1 that I haven't used in a while but it is one of my all time favourite label Nestie. I left the image in the die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink and I used my glass cutting mat and Fiskars Finger tip control craft knife to cut around the outer edge of the Nestie die to get the slim mat for my image.
I used a MFT Die-namics Scalloped Ribbon border die and also added some natural twill tape, some Prima flowers and a sprinkling of pink gems here and there. The sentiment is a Melissa Frances rub-on.
Thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card for this week's fruity Simon Says Stamp Challenge! I hope you can join us and if you need a little more inspiration then pop on over to the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog and check out all the pretty and delicious fruit inspired creations by the Simon Says DT!!!!
