Hi everyone. Today I'm excited to be the Guest Designer for the newest challenge at Time Out Challenges (#15). Thank you Sandie and Nonni ... I'm so honored to be joining your team for this fun challenge!! :)
Here's the details about Time Out Challenge #15 ... the theme is Stamping with the optional twist of Apples. The challenge is sponsored by Avocado Arts.
I used my Paper Smooches stitched tag die, cutting out from card stock which was printed with a soft gray alphabet on my computer. I stamped the sentiment in black so it stood out from the other words. The apple is die-cut, glued together and then covered in a thick coating of glossy accents. A strip of washi tape is placed under the tag and red gingham ribbon tied at the top. I added a few red sequins and clear rhinestones to finish.
I hope you'll check out the challenge and take a look at the amazing cards from the Design Team. And I hope you'll play along!! :)

Gosh, I wish my students' parents were crafty so I could receive a card like this! Love it! And I know every teacher would be thankful to receive it!
The apple is super, I looked for the make and saw that you made it yourself, the card is gorgeous. Congratulations on your GD spot.

Loll, I've fallen behind in commenting once again, but here I am to join my cheers and applause to the others. Gorgeous card/tag; a fabulous GD showcase and guaranteed to be loved by the 'special teacher' receiving it (and being a teacher myself, I can verify that this truly will be treasured!)
