Another apple picking layout.....

Last month I scrapped a couple of pictures of Craig apple picking last fall with my Counterfeit kit. I thought the pictures of me apple picking were particularly heinous (especially one where I realize the apple I just bit into had a spider living near the stalk - it's the bottom pic in the layout below), but I decided to scrap them to go with Craig's layout. And I absolutely love, love, love, love, love the layout that I created. I used my Counterfeit Kit. Well, the embellishments at least - I didn't use any patterned paper, but using cardstock still counts as using up my stash (especially as I have a mountain of it). Here's the layout:And here are some close ups of the embellishments:OK, the bright green buttons are Jenni Bowlin, there are also some Stampin Up buttons in there - the rest are probably from mixed manufacturers. The title alphas are thickers, the little letters of the photos are Cosmo Cricket (this is getting a little old - I should copy and paste the same list as my last two layouts). The chipboard birds are Maya Rd. The paper hearts are UmWowStudio. The gnarly old tree is a Spooky Tree from Magistical Memories that I have had in my stash for ages. Thanks for checking out my page - leave me some love! Kylie xxx
