WT603 = apples(or any fruit) Theme was "An Apple A Day"
I printed the digi on watercolor paper. Watercolored and then cut out the image to mount on the oval. Thought it might be fun to do another color for the apples rather than red.

Bestill my heart! This is so gorgeous! I love how you so expertly and meticulously water colored this fabulous digi image, then cut it out in order to mount it on this black background. The dark background really showcases these fabulous apples to their very best advantage. I am putting this right into my favs! ~Karen.

As with Sabrina the first thing through my mind when I saw your gorgeous card was 'the golden apples of the sun'! Your mastery of watercoloring really shows with these beautiful apples. However your skills at presenting them to best effect are evident too! Fantastic card Sallie!

Oohh, Sallie! Of course you would find a different spin and make it look AMAZING! I love golden delicious apples in the yellow apple varieties They are especially yummy sliced very thin and put in between two pieces of sourdough bread with some applewood smoked cheddar, then grilled and dipped in pepper jelly

Your gorgeous glowing apples and gingham background make me think of my grandmother's kitchen (she made wonderful pies), one of my favorite places as a child. Thanks for the warm fuzzies!

This is a jaw-dropper! The way you watercolored those apples has me shaking my head in wonderment - totally gorgeous! Love the gingham background, too, it adds a nice, classy-country feel to the card. TFS this
