This week, the tea partiers are off to help Annie Mae Appleseed get the apples in her orchard picked and stop the BAD APPLE from puttin' her on her fannie! Check out the full MMTPT76 story.
Also for Colour Challenge CC253 to use Chocolate Chip, Pretty in Pink, Rich Razzleberries and a neutrral - GREEN'S a neutral isn't it LOL? And for dessert - houndstooth!
So Sammy the Snake is helping out. Don't be fooled by the bookwormish glasses and shy smile - Sammy is a SNAKE - a mean, hissin, slitherin' snake. And he will stop anyone who gets in the way of Miss Annie and her apple pickin'.
Ran the Chocolate Chip card stock through the CB Houndstooth embossing folder. Created a panel of pink and razzleberry and punched out a half circle at one end and inserted a ribbon tab. Stamped and coloured image and then cut out and popped up. Punched out two razzleberry apples and cut off the leaves. Backed it with dark green apple so the leaves and stem are green. Added a get well soon sentiment from the SU Mini Mates set.
Thanks for taking a peek!

Oh come on now. This cute little guy couldn't hurt anyone. Well, I guess I won't take a chance and make him mad.
The embossed choc. chip is very effective. Like the hint of ribbon. Actually I like everything about this card!

Too cute! Great job with the colors. And I don`t know...he looks pretty harmless to me. In fact with those glasses on I thought he was our detective. TFS!!!

I thought it was a snake and I had a hard time opening it up. Then I thought maybe it was the worm in my sister, mutnik's card, but no you had to say it was a SNAKE!!! I hate snakes. Years ago we had a dog that thought it was a treat to bring me snakes. He needed therapy!!! I was getting out of the shower, just about to step out and there was a snake coiled right where my foot was about to land. I really cannot remember what happened to that dog!!! Not really. I love dogs but this one loved me way tooooo much. tfs.

Green is so full of nature it has to be a neutral! I think that made better sense in my head! Oh well, I do love the bespectackled hissing snake! And that houndstooth bg is wonderful. Love it!
