I truly could not believe my eyes when I saw the site for today's IC challenge!! It was Crate Labels! I had just received this PSX apple stamp in the mail today from an EBay auction! As is my normal routine when I get a stamp that I know I am going to color with my Copics in a more detailed manner, I ink it up and do a "trial run". I had just completed doing this when I checked to see if today's IC was up! I about fell off my chair and back to my craft table I went to create this card! : )

You must live right -- having colored (and I might add, beautifully) this apple and then being able to use it for the challenge. I like the blue gingham paper and the embossed background. Great card!!!
