Teresa's HYCCT challenge was to make a tall card, and the Ways to Use It challenge was to use chipboard. I bought a box of fall chipboard embellishments several years ago and found enough letters to spell out "apples." I have to tell you that I did this card twice. After I cut out the cardstock, I stamped my images and put it together -- longways (I forgot that it was supposed to be a TALL card.) So I pulled it apart and re-did the top layer. I had to cut the apple basket out and pop it up on dimensionals. I didn't want to have to color it again.

So glad you were able to salvage your card by changing the orientation, Lois! Your apple background, basket of apples, and the chipboard letters work together for a fun fall card!
