Today's set is another lovely one, called "Fall Apples", it is a perfect set to have in your stash at this time of year:
I couldn't help but do more colouring for today's cards:
Using my markers on kraft was a really fun technique to play with. For some reason the kraft seems to pill less than any brands of white card stock I've tried, and the darker colour gives a nice tint to the image that I really like. Yet another technique I will be using in future! :)
I hope you enjoyed my cards today! The fun is not over though, talented Toni is
