Shabby Apples~The Spendor of Fall

This has been a superb year in Michigan for the apple crop....

There are so many apples on the trees that even the ground is loaded with them....

A blessing, as last year we had a hard frost when the apple blossoms bloomed

making the crops not too plentiful!!

 

I have been "pinning" all sorts of apple "foodies" on Pinterest...

I have been buying bags of apples...yum!

 

So, it was a pleasure to see that this week the theme at

The Shabby Tea Room is "APPLES"

using this inspiration photo....

 

 

I made a card with some "shabby goodness"

 

 

using a paper doily or two.....an apple stamp from a "Unity kit of the month"....

adding some sequins for a bit of  "bling".....

shabby twill tape....

and the best part...

this card smells "yummy"...

I had a bit of creative goodness and I added a tiny cinnamon stick

tied with a piece of twine!

 

 

Also want to thank The Shabby Tea Room once again for choosing

my card for last week's Top 3...

so very honored!!
