Pickin' apples and a snowman!

Two really contrasting cards tonight. The first is for The Sugar Bowl. The image is Sugar Nellie's pickin' apples, papers are BG Euphoria and flowers are Prima. I also used a new Cuttlebug embossing folder.


When I saw the challenge at Crafty Catz was red, green and use a punch I immediately thought of Christmas. This is another of my new WOJ stamps. I added lots of glitter and used a Fiskar embossing corner punch. Holly leaves are a Sizzix die cut with a Hero Arts poinsettia and Prima crystals. I had decided not to add a sentiment when I found some little epoxy stickers in my stash and this one fitted perfectly. The fab sketch at Moving along with the times fitted a tall card perfectly and the challenge at ABC Christmas is holly and touchy feely is for Cute Card Thursday.
