Apple Harvest

It seems forever since I was able to participate in a challenge. There have been so many great challenges lately and I have been missing all the fun. I finally was able to get a card done this weekend for a couple of challenges!
My card is 5" x 6 1/2 " white cardstock and is layered with a pretty Recollections pink patterned paper.
I was trying to include apples and a wheelbarrow into my project. I opened Cricut Freshly Picked cartridge for the first time and saw this apple frame. Well, immediately I decided to frame a wheelbarrow! Have you noticed the interesting frames on this cartridge...some would be great on scrapbook pages.
Cricut Cartridges:
Freshly Picked - Page 28 - Apple frame cut 4". Page 54 - Hat cut 1 3/4". For Apple Harvest, I used the Words feature on page 28 for the Apple and Words feature on page 59 for Harvest. Both were cut at 1 1/4".
Walk in my Garden - Page 107- Wheelbarrow cut at 1 1/4".
Cricut Essentials (preloaded on E2) - Page 45- Corner cut at 1.25"
A Child's Year - Page 49 - Apples cut 3/4"
Lots of inking! Hat and phrase are pop-dotted! Patterned papers are Recollections (24 in pack). I love all these colors. For the reds and kraft color, I use papers from my scrap stack. I used both the Expression and E2 on this card.

Challenges:
Bitten by the Bug2 - Walk in my Garden wheelbarrow. Of course, if you do not have this cartridge, you can use a similar cut from another cartridge.
Cooking with Cricut - Ch.# 53 - Apples and Honey
Link Up for Pink - Linking party - Pink as main color for Breast Cancer Awareness

Hope you enjoy my card!

  8. Hi Glenda, It's been awhile since we've chatted, so sorry time just flies! I'm so glad you joined us over at BBTB2 with your adorable wheelbarrow, I always love your cards and this one is too darn cute! Love all the papers and love your little pink hat! Boy all these apples I've been seeing lately makes me want to make me an apple pie, lol! I think I need to go to the apple farm out here and get me some and maybe even give a try to making some apple butter, a real sign that Fall is here, lol! I really need to stop by more often, I'll surely try! Take Care!
