An Apple A Day...


Hi there! It's Product Spotlight day at DeNami Design, and today we're featuring the Small Apple! I LOVE this image! It's the ideal size to color or paper piece! And it's so perfect for teacher gifts and autumn-themed projects!

You're probably thinking...there she goes again with that paper piecing...but I couldn't resist!!! A gingham apple...c'mon...so cute!!! And, do you like the apple background panel??? I handstamped that using the solid and outline apples from the Apples and Pears Stamp Set! It was really fun and I LOVE the results!


Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to head on over to the DeNami Design Blog to check out what my fellow DT gals and our Guest Designer, Emily, have created!

Lisa, this is ADORABLE! I love how the black dotted background gives a kind of chalkboard feel to this fun school-themed card. And your paper-pieced apple? Fantastic! Red gingham was the perfect choice. Super card!!

Love the combo of fun colors, patterns and stamping you did. The notebook edge really finishes it off along with the ribbon, twine & button.
