Hello My Crafty Friends,
Did you stop by yesterday and check out the "NEW" challenge over at Decorate to Celebrate?? If not you can check out the post HERE.  Thank you for stopping by today and do I have a SWEET adorable looking card for YOU to enjoy!!!

I found a new challenge blog called Casology and love their challenges!  You should stop by and check them out.  The challenge was to use fruit and make a card easy to reproduce and I think I have captured that with my cute card, however, I did heat emboss but you can easyly skip this step and only use ink to stamp for a fast quick card.

The die cutting was simple and fast with our "NEW" Sneak Peek Cannery Set Framelits Dies to match the stamp set Perfectly Preserved available August 1st.  I hope you like my card for today and will give it a try:)
Challenges:

I heat embossed using Gumball Green, Tangerine
Tango, Pewter emboss powders

The extra leaves were punched using the Blossom
Petals Builder and I hand drew the vines on the leaves.
