This is the last of the trio of cards made with the Apple of My Eye Stamp Set. Here's the details.
- Score & fold the card base.
- Use the Watermelon Inkto stamp the "grapefruit" once in the bottom right corner of the card front.
- Use the Cucumber Crush Ink and the "stamping off" technique to stamp a row of leaves along the bottom of the card front, and a couple above the "grapefruit". Tip – Stamping Off Technique – Ink the stamp, and stamp it two/three times before reining, for a lighter image.
- Use the Memento Black Ink to stamp the sentiment off to the left a little of the "grapefruit"'
- Use Snail Adhesive or Fast Fuse to attach the card front to the mat.
- Wrap about 36" of the Linen Thread around this piece three times before tying off in a bow in the top right corner.
- Use Snail Adhesive or Fast Fuse to attach this piece to the card base.
- Use Glue Dots to attach 3 Gold Sequins randomly to the card front.

Great quick-and-easy card, Ginger!
I love the colors! It does look like a quick but great card. You have an eye for color and design. That makes you an artist.
I am with Marjorie about the colors. That was the first thing that struck me. I also like the placement of the sequins. This is a “Happy” card.

“Orange” you clever! I thought you would make a card with an orange on it and here you switched it up and made a red grapefruit! I would have never thought about that! I could drink my weight in grapefruit juice, regular or red with vodka in my wild days! Gee, I am wondering what color would make it a blood orange? This was just too much fun! I guess you could do a normal grapefruit still and a lime for two more versions! Oh wait, I forgot the orange! Well, done my friend!
