Tuesday's color challenge, hosted by the wonderful Barbara (bejoyce), includes the SU colors of Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, and Mossy Meadow. Her dessert is "Summer Treats". Thanks, Barbara for your color choices and dessert!
I used the Power Poppy Apples In Season Digital Stamp Set for the image on my card that is shaped like the largest SU Oval Framelit. I used the SU colors for some of my coloring and Copics for the remainder.
The Golden Delicious apples remind me of my family's summer treat of picking apples and making apple sauce, apple butter, apple pies, and so on. I loved going to my uncle's to pick the apples from his many and varied, gorgeous apple trees.
Apple blossoms can be various colors, depending upon the type of apple. Sometimes, a particular tree, such as a Golden Delicious tree, will produce white blossoms while another could produce white/pinkish blossoms. Therefore, I added just a touch of pink onto the blossoms.
I allowed three Clear Crystal Drops to dry completely and colored them with a yellow marker before adding them as an embellishment.
Enjoy and thanks for viewing and commenting!!
