This is for Cindy's Teapot Tuesday Challenge 76. I have never played in this challenge and am in awe by the ongoing story. I guess it will take time to catch up. It sounds like some fun goin's on around here. I just got home from work and wanted to try my hand at a free hand apple tree in a field. I used dry brushes and sponges to add the color and used the little mini fern image from my Kittie Kits Outdoor Master to add texture to the ground and tree top. I added the apples with a SU red marker.

Hey girls! Kittie is here! Holy cow Kittie, if I knew all it would take to get you to one of our tea parties was to have it in an apple orchard I would have done it long ago!
Have you seen all the amazing Kittie cards here in the orchard? Actually the teapot reminded me of you too. Now, let me give you a heads up....just in case......
It can get a little rowdy but that might change as I have put Bertie on probabation, no more flinging stuff! And I think we finally have our injuries under control, and at the moment we have no law suits from previous tea parties! Life is good on Teapot Tuesday!
Your card rocks....its so YOU! Its been awhile since I have commented on one of your cards and I can see you are still da bomb! I am honored you came to our party.....now come on, let me show you where the treats are...and tea, yah, tea.....its a tea party ya know!

Totally adorable, and I am so glad you jumped on board - this train is a wild and crazy one, but you will fit right in with all your creative talent!
I love your scene and how you surrounded it with tons of red - super cool!
