A Taste of Fall...

Hey there, inky friends!
Sherri here with a tiny bit of inspiration for you on this fall day.  :)
 
As a teacher, I am always receiving little gifts from my students and their families.  I made this little "thank you" card for a student of mine who brought me some fruity gifts.  Her family owns an apple orchard, so of course she brought me a HUGE shiny apple.  She also brought me a watermelon!  It was a mini one-and looked quite curious on my desk! LOL
 
So here is the little "thank you" that I made for her:
 
The "thanks so much" sentiment is from {ippity}'s "Just Wanted to Say" set.  I traced an ancient template and handcut the apple from kraft cardstock, then trimmed some American Crafts patterned papers to fit just inside the edge.  The little apple seeds are actually leftover heart die-cuts from another project.  They added just the right touch of sweetness, don't you think?
 
Don't be afraid to mix in those old tools and paper lines!  Bust that stash and create some fun little cards.  {ippity} stamps will give even your oldest or most neglected supplies that "WOW" factor!
