Sweet Peach Suite!

I love the layout & way these peach cards turned out.

I used the Sweet Peach Suite!

Notice the stitched leaves.

I used the Stitched Greenery Die for them!

I just LOVE IT! 

 

My peaches are all different.....

 I inked the peaches in the Pale Papaya ink pad & then took a 

sponge dauber & tapped on some Calypso Coral ink pad.

 

I stamped them onto a strip of Basic White card stock & then die cut them out!
Notice the shading in my peaches.

Each one of them is different!

One peach or Two?

I think that they are both super cute!

Adding the stem/leaves to the peach top sure completes the peach!
