Farm Fresh.

I think I have a problem - I buy way too much patterned paper.

I realized when I went to choose this tag and card to share with you today that I haven't done much with October Afternoon's Farm Fresh line. And I've totally got nothing against fruits & vegetables, I think maybe they're a little more difficult to incorporate into a card or something. Not sure. Need to put that paperpack on my craft table and leave it there to remind me to use it!

First up today is a little tag I made for a teacher gift. My daughter's teacher's birthday is next month - don't know what we're giving her, but I've got a taggie ready for the package - heh. I cut out a little flower using the Nested Flowers Shapeabilities, topped it with a little Imaginisce sentiment and a little apple from Papertrey Ink, embellished with some buttons, a little chipboard from Sassafras and some ribbon.

For my second card, I thought this new stamp from Hero Arts kinda went well with the whole produce theme. I've got Spring Moss cardstock and ribbon, a little Jenni Bowlin bingo card, some buttons, and some BasicGrey chipboard.

Don't forget to eat your fruits and vegetables!

Awwwww! I LOVE your tag!!! I have a patterned paper weakness, too! I'm sure if I ever saw your stash I'd just cry with joy. Lol! Your stitching is yum! And I LOVE the BG chipboard! :-) I'm feeling the love of Spring colors these days. :-)

Love that "flashcard" on the tag. The GROW Bingo card is perfect for the fruits and veggies - too cute.

Oh, that tag for the teacher is unbeatable! LOVE IT! I don't think it really matters what you get her to go with it, she'll probably spend all her time looking at the cool tag!
