Tart n Tangy

 Bright and fun card to share today! this made me feel all summery! Notice the two tone colors on the fruit? Very simple to do. for the apple, first i inked it w/ so saffron and then gently rolled the edges on the old olive pad. for the orange too, i first did so saffron and then rolled it once on the peach parfait ink pad.(RULE of thumb, always start w/ your lightest ink color and then roll on the darker..this will not hurt your ink pads) then for the strawberry i used the stampin write markers to color it. tip:  after i inked my strawberry, it didn't have a nice smooth stamp or picture on my white. it was kinda like there was a film on the rubber. you can quickly remedy that by taking your sanding block and gently sanding the actual rubber!  Now my strawberry looks edible again! ;)
