"Apple Barrel" ~ My last "I Brake For Stamps" GDT card ;(

Hello everyone!
Today I played with another "I Brake For Stamps" image from their MS71 full plate.
Other cards that I have done with this plate are:
They have extended the coupon code that I can offer my followers! You can receive 10% off your entire order by using the code SAVE10True. 
This is the last card that I will be doing for my guest DT stint. I have loved using their beautiful images!
Thanks Della!


I used Bazzill Swiss Dots in Clover for the base with some Kraft pieces for contrast.
I don't normally use ribbon that is this big but I thought it would work great as a kind of second focal point.
The fun Ribbon and trim are from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
They are: 

I used watercolors on the image and the sentiment was added with a Sharpie marker.


Thanks so much for dropping by!
Hugs,
True :D

Happy Hopper-"Sweet Birthday" Card SC262, CDBC1 and other challenges

Hello All!
I thought I would play with the girls @ Split Coast Stampers again today so I am entering their sketch challenge #SC262. It is an adorable sketch and I just so happened to have an extra "Happy Hoppers" image already painted up from a year or so ago. You see...coloring is my favorite part so when I first started stamping I did all of my images in multiples. I have a couple of drawers full of images needing a home. LOL!
This one was just perfect for today's sketch!
It also fits perfectly into the brand new "Clearly Delightful Blog Challenge #CDBC1" which is "Bunny Rabbits",  that my friend Laurie is satating up. Hope you will join me in helping her get the first one rolling! I think it will be tons of fun and this month's challenge participants all get an adorable digi bunny stamp just for playing along!



The CS is Bazzill-Swiss Dots and the DP is K&Company's "Wild Raspberry".
I popped the side of the barrel and some of the apples once then popped a few apples again. I then added lots of Crystal Effects to make them shine.
