I stamped and embossed the 3 candy apples first, not knowing how I was going to display them. When the idea hit for a garden, I put my 3 distress browns onto a craft sheet, spritzed with water and mopped it up with my white card stock for the dirt patch. Same thing with blues and purple for the sky.
I added the foliage and the scarecrow, and tore the top off to fit the gray-blue card. The whole time, I was making this and even now, The Beatles' "Octopus's Garden" has been playing over and over in my head.

Very creative take on the apple challenge! How fun to think of putting your candied apples in a field with a scarecrow....now I'm going to have to google "Octopus's Garden" to fully appreciate the creative inspiration for this fun card!
