Fun card once got my idea. Have red card base, then white that I used sponge daubers to put down the colored circles. Cut circles of red for apples and then used the punch to take like a bite out of the top and bottom of each apple, sponged edges of the leaves and apples for dimension, started with a square for the basket, cutting each side at a slant, ran thru eb folder for design, made a long piece to fit the top of basket 1 in wide and long enough to extend over the top of basket a little, rounded the edges of bottom of basket and top brim, stamped leaves on the top of basket. Wrapped twine around before using pop dots to pop on top of dotted card piece. Used glue dots for apples, leaves and the hand cut stems as I put them in and on the basket. Made sentiment on computer, printed out and punched out then did red piece for layering it onto before gluing on basket, added stickles on apples to shine some.

It's no wonder someone has taken a bite from those apples, they look delicious with that sparkle. And both your basket and background are so clever and creative.
