Harvest Twofer

Greetings from Stamp Camp 2018.  All the Cardologists were here this weekend - lots of laughter, eating, and best of all, crafting.  More about that later.

Last night one of my dear friends asked if I was going to enter the Twofer Harvest challenge this month.  And when I gave the excuse that I didn’t bring any harvest stamps, all the Cardologists started digging.  Of all the stuff we brought, and I am talking about carloads, we had only one set with a basket of apples.  My friend had been joking, but I took it as a challenge.  Long after everyone else went to bed, I was stamping and coloring....even when I went to bed, I was dreaming about these cards.  I hope you enjoy the effects.

This first card was inspired by text messages one of the Cardologists was receiving from her husband.  He was signing off all his text messages with food endearments....my little artichoke, my asparagus sauce, my seven layer chocolate cake...it was so cute.





No beautiful sunsets this weekend; in fact, it has been cold with snow flurries. Although most of the leaves are down, there is still a grouping of beautiful trees with reddish orange leaves outside our window.  This second card is only partially inspired by our fall weather. At least we have three kinds of farm grown apples on our shelf (not that we eat a lot of healthy snacks here).





I used: Inky Antics Apple Pie (basket of apples, slice of pie, sentiments), Loralie Art Stamps Jake the Baker (Jake).
