CTMH Hug Around The Neck

Good Morning Ladies,
It snowed again....I feel as if this winter is never going to leave us! I did make good use of yesterday as far as creating goes. I have been playing with a few Close To My Heart stamp sets.
My card for today is CTMH Hug Around The Neck. And here it is ....

This is a new stamp set my mom purchased from Kathy Anderson. It is set D1543 Country-Barn Seasons & Nature. This set is so easy to work with. I started with the bushel of apples. They were stamped on Bristol paper with Momento ink. They were then colorized with Prisma pencil and Gamsol. Next I choose my paper. The dsp is from an old Daisy D's pad. I have been using paper from my stash. It is better to share it, than keep it stored away somewhere. If it is stored I can't even enjoy it. The red layer is corregated cardstock from DCWV. And of course kraft cardstock. My sentiment ink is Archival in the color coffee. All edges were inked with brown color box ink. A piece of kitchen twine from the hardware store tops this card off.
