Friday Challenge...fruit


Tootie fruity oh rootie....Well I don't have many fruit stamps so I went to the old stand by... the pear. Since this is a flat solid stamp I decided to get out my Lyra water colored crayons which I always forget to use. These little bums are tricky because too much water or not enough water and you just get a glob. This is not perfect but it ain't too bad. My stamp is from Stamp in Hand and the leaves are from
Autumn Leaves, used my # 2 Nesties and since we were to be fruity I chose "soft lemon and avacado " colors for the paper,a bit of 2 ribbons and gold blingers.Can you believe it's time for the weekend again??? Me neither and since I know I can't beat the time I had last weekend ( with the Queen and her court ) I will just sit and read a good book. Have fun dear friends and I'll see you next week.
