Harvest Blessings - Paper Craft Crew Challenges #8

Today is a bright sunny day, but a bit on the chilly side.  We've already had a bit of frost, but not a 'killing' frost.
This card is based on the sketch on the Paper Craft Crew Challenges #8 here

Card Sketch #8 

Technique:
The Raspberry Ripple card base is matted with Crumb Cake upon which was stamped the image of a tractor using Crumb Cake ink.  A strip of Orchard Harvest designer paper was adhered to the bottom of the Crumb Cake after attaching a scalloped strip of Raspberry Ripple card stock.  A piece of Gumball Green stitched satin ribbon was attached over the seam between the designer paper and the scalloped strip.
The image was stamped in Black Stazon on Very Vanilla card stock, and colored with markers and an Aqua brush.  Some Crystal Effects was applied to the pumpkins and apples to make them more 3D.  It was die cut using the Apothecarry accessory framelits and adhered to a Labels framelit die in Raspberry Ripple.  Some pricking was done around the image and along 2 sides of the Label framelit die.  Dimensionals were used to attached to image to the card front.
Three apples were cut from the designer paper, covered with crystal effects and adhered to the left side of the card with a glue dot.
