Hey everyone! I’ve been enjoying my last weekend of my summer vacation getting ready for work. Hmmm, you may think that is strange, but I’m an organized work gal so getting all my eggs lined up for one of my busiest weeks of the year is a great thing :) Today’s card was made a while back, long enough ago that saying, let alone thinking, “Back to School” was a BIG no-no. However, I wanted to get a head start on my DT challenges so I bit the bullet and actually LOVED making this sweet little apple for the new Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Back to School.
I found these Spellbinder Apples at a discount store and just couldn’t wait to use them. The largest one is PERFECT for making an apple shaped card :) I chose a red patterned paper (with little hearts) to act as a sweet background for the rest of the card. Verve’s Teachers Count set and matching Apple dies were just the thing to anchor the “First Day of School” sentiment from My Favourite Things. This sweet little card will be sitting on one of my colleagues’ desk Tuesday morning with some jelly beans :) Head over to the Curtain Call Inspiration Blog to see how the whole Design Team was inspired then play along! Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your weekend :)

Absolutely adorable. I love how you lined up the apples. I thought I was going to read that you opened your Cricut to cut out the apple!!
Very cute and some teachers day will be really special when they see it on their desk!
That will no doubt be your colleague's favorite apple. . .ever! It's just adorable, Maureen! Have a great first week of school! :)

Love the apple shape - thought it was the MFT die when I first saw it. Such a wonderful card with the apples and the notebook paper.
