I wanted to make this bucket look really old and beat up and turned on it's side overflowing with apples. I sketched the trees and fence with an artist pen and used the Watercolor Minis fern stampto make the leaves and fill in the grassy area. I used the artist pen to mark up the bucket and used Sahara Sand and More Mustard to color it. I mixed Ruby Red and Close to Cocoa to make the color for the apples. I painted most of each apple with Barely Banana as an undercoat for the reddish brown ink. I was trying to make a more natural looking apple.

Kittie, You combine your drawing talents with your stamping into such a creative and beautifully artful card. I just find myself always totally engulfed in your art. TFS
