Once again, it’s my favorite time of the month… when I mail out my Customer Thank You cards to everyone that made a purchase the month prior. I love being able to tell my customers how much I appreciate them.
This month I used the Harvest Hellos stamp set and used the apple to make caramel apples. To make these apples, stamp the apple stamp on your red card stock and punch it out. Then punch out a second apple in Mango Melody. I used a sponge to add a little bit of shading around the edges of the Mango Melody card stock.
I wanted my apple to look like it’s dripping caramel so I decided to make my own pattern to create the wavy edge at the bottom. Here’s what my pattern looks like.
The popsicle stick is taped to the back of the apple using our Tear & Tape adhesive. Then I used dimensionals to adhere the caramel apple to the card. For the sentiment on the card, I used the Everyday Label punch. I just trimmed it straight across so it would fit better on my card. Altering punched images is a great way to stretch the use of my punches to get different looks.
If you missed out on September’s card, don’t worry, you still have time to make a purchase in October to get on the list to receive October’s card. If you make a purchase online in my shop, subscribe to Paper Pumpkin through me, or make a purchase at an event, you are automatically on my list to receive a thank you card.
