What girl doesn't love Barbie?! And the Inspiration Challenge website IC268 is a Barbie lovers paradise!!
When I saw Teacher Barbie holding that shiny red apple I decided to use a stamp I bought a while back and still hadn't inked up.
I ran the black card base through the Houndstooth embossing folder. Stamped and coloured the apple with copics and then matted with some red cardstock. Strayed a bit from Barbie's solid red bow and went with a gingham bow instead. Added a shiny Get Well tag tied on with some white string and then added three silver half pearls to finish things off.
Thanks for taking a peek!

Love this CAS card with the black houndstooth bg - I really like cards with apples and just realized I don't have a stamp with any - this is a good image!

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. What a great idea for a get well card! I can't believe I've never seen one before. I love the texture and the color combo. You should enter this in Sugar Creek Hollow's weekly challenge. This week it's B&W with a splash of color. http://sugarcreekhollow.blogspot.com/
