It's Monday AGAIN! How time flies! Our BBTB2 challenge this week was chosen by our fabulously talented and pretty darn sweet, fearless leader, Heather. Her pick is the apple core from Preserves. WOW, ANOTHER cart I don't have (sure seems like I've got them all) and to be honest, I almost blew this one off coming off a birthday trip and all and I was a little off my game, but just 'cause it's YOU, Heather... Anyway, I used CricutSearch.com to pull up apples and lo and behold there was somewhat of a core on Give a Hoot. It was part of the border feature and didn't have any layering but I decided to see what I could do in DS. First I made a shaped card using the shadow of the apple from then on, who knows. I stretched and skewed and hid contours up the ying yang to get a size that fit correctly on my base and layered images until I managed cut a core and some peel. The center part is from George and the seeds were the result of some additional manipulation of one of the cuts from Give a Hoot. The adorable worm is from Create a Critter and the sentiment is from the Cuttlebug Everyday Greetings Card Making combo.
Sorry there's not as much layering as usual. I actually had an additional apple layer under the worm originally but when I decided I didn't like the first base color I chose and cut the whole thing over, I decided that layer didn't add to the design and I chucked it. Not quite as much detail, either, but DH was itching to go to the wine festival in town so... Now go be inspired by the rest of the DT's fabulous creations HERE and remember, we allow some artistic license if you haven't the cart in question. Oh, and if you're having a rough Monday, scroll down for a laugh.
