Mornin' y'all! Daphne is ensconced on the oversize chair near me where she can look out the window and she just looks so comfy and content : ) And cute, of course. Pretty soon she'll start poking at me to take her for a walk so I'm going to enjoy the tranquillity while it lasts.
I did a whole lot of apple cards in September but that didn't stop me from making one more yesterday.
Give Thanks is a sweet little stamp set from many moons ago and I love it. This year I have embraced using more of my retired stamps and other supplies instead of feeling like I *have* to have all the new things that come out. Anyway, I used a stamp with multiple leaves on it to stamp the Cherry Cobbler cardstock strip but it's not showing up that well on the photo. Just gives an extra bit of texture.
Thought I'd have another go at the As You See It theme, I had done a pumpkin card already so we had to do apples so I can represent the top two Thanksgiving pies in our house : )
Here's the CASE-ing Tuesday sketch I used:
That challenge is not just for Halloween cards anymore ; ) And last up is the Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge:
I stamped the main image and the greeting in Secret Sea and I discovered while coloring the image that I need to replace my Pool Party Blends. I also need to replace the Soft Sea Foam Blends and I just recently got new sets for Mossy Meadow and Shaded Spruce. Bit annoying, that.
Anyway, I did five loads of laundry yesterday but I need to do at least one more today. I have a few more things to do but the first on the list is taking our sweet Daphne out for her walk. Cheers!

Christy, I love that bucket of apples! The red looks delicious - although green Granny Smiths are my favourite apple, followed by Braeburns. The thing about it is that it matches in with the sentiment so perfectly... and I love the warmth of the colours you've chosen. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See It. :-)
So darling, Christy - that bucket of apples is the cutest apple image out there, lol. Such a sweet card - perfect for harvest! Thanks so much for playing at As You See It!
Apples and plaid - the perfect fall harvest combination! I love the deep red with the pop of Pool Party blue - it works so well. I have an apple tree in my garden, that for the first time in 25 years actually produced a bucketful at harvest this year - they are more a braeburn, but delicious nonetheless! Thanks for playing at As You See It too!
