Start with a Granny Apple Green cardstock card base. Cut a Basic Black cardstock panel and a Basic White cardstock panel. Dry emboss the Basic White cardstock panel with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder. Glue the Basic Black cardstock panel and the embossed Basic White cardstock panel to the card base.
Cut a Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper panel and glue it to the left side of the card front. Stamp the image with the two apples from the Apple Harvest stamp set in Memento Black ink on Basic White cardstock. Die cut out the image with the Apple Blossoms dies. Color the image with the Stampin' Blends. Add Wink of Stella to the flower centers for sparkle. Use Stampin' Dimensionals to add the colored die cut image to the center of the card front overlapping the Designer Series Paper panel.
Stamp the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Memento Black ink on Basic White cardstock. Fussy cut out the sentiment and flag the end with paper snips. Use the bone folder to slightly curl the sentiment banner. Color the Black & White Gingham ribbon with the Light Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blend, tie a small bow, and add it to the card front with glue dots overlapping the image and Designer Series Paper. Use the Stampin' Dimensional at one end and a glue dot in the middle of the sentiment banner to attach the sentiment banner to the card front tucked under the image and overlapping the ribbon. Add black Classic Matte Dots to the card front.
Don't forget to add a Basic White cardstock inside panel to write your message. Stamp the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set and add a strip of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper to the inside and back of the card to pull the theme through.
