I made these notecards this year. I am a hopeless romantic, and still believe that a hand written note is so much more loving and personal than email. A handmade one is even better! For this one, I got some card stock, sliced an apple in half, poured 3 colors of craft paint into a paper plate, and started stamping. There were blank spots where the seeds were, and I just drew in the seeds with a black pen. I cut them out when dry, and edged them with a bit of green paint. Separately, I used a basic printing program on my computer, and arranged the words...various types of apples...for a 4x5 card. Using card stock, I printed out several and cut them to the right size. I found a nice scrapbooking checked print paper and cut rectangles of them out, edged the papers with green ink, and glued them onto the printed cardstock. Finally, I glued the cut out apples on. I am pleased with the results, and excited that each one is a little bit different. Can't wait to try some green pepper prints next!
