Apple Harvest Bundle

I used the Apple Harvest Bundle to make this card!

Wow- what a fun bundle to create with!

Check them out.......

 

#162526- Apple Harvest Bundle= $53.00

                #160255- Apple Blossoms Dies= $35.00

                #159944- Apple Harvest stamp set= $24.00  Holiday Catalog pg. 54

Do you like THIS OR THAT?

 

I think that these words from the 'Happiness Abounds' stamp set

work perfectly when stamped inside this rectangle die & on this card.

Don't you?

Notice how I used the Split Card Textures Dies

AND I added some of the little squares back into the spots for some added dimension.

 

Along the bottom I embossed using the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder.

How did I get the ripped edge?

I laid the die over the top of the embossed CS piece & ripped

towards me, using the die edge as a guide.

 

Here are the supplies & measurements.
