I have said it before, I am seriously addicted to "step" cards. I thought a center step card was perfect for this Graphic 45 paper. I tried putting the apples where the buttons are, but it didn't look quite right.
I have not played in this challenge before, so I hope I haven't broken any rules by not having the apples as the main focus. Thank you for looking.

VERY cute card! Love the Graphic 45 image and your apples look perfectly "natural" on the card. BTW, I don't think to be in the challenge, your card had to be dominated by apples; it just needed to be inspired by them. For example, one participant mentioned that she didn't have any apple stamps so she got her inspiration to add red to her card, from a red apple. Okay, then. 'Nough said.

This is a fab card! You didn't break any rules, the apples are perfect and perfectly placed. I really like this card and the retro, vintage feel to it. Beautiful!!

Yikes! I think I am getting addicted to your gallery! What a lovely vintage scene. I smiled to see this paper at work....my sits, unattended! May have to fix that! Lovely work Susie!
