I love Fall and all the goodies it brings with it! Caramel apples are one of my favorite fall treats (: I had this idea to take my children (all 4 of them) to the store to get apples and caramel. I had envisioned an excited and grateful group of children, (clearly a fantasy). What really happened was protests and fights all the way to the store, inside the store and again at home! It wasn't until they saw me making the apples that they decided to be civilized, and join in on the fall fun (: We did have fun making these, I purchased caramel ready to wrap around the apples! This was really easy for my three and four year old to do, because the caramel comes in a flat circle, sheets of five. It is not sticky and is easy to peal out of its wrapper. After the children added caramel to ten apples (I bought two caramel packages of 5) I baked them for 5 minutes in a 200 degree oven. They looked really great when they were done and we had eaten them by the next morning!!!!! It turned out fun in the end and the children were proud of their apples (:
This is a card I am bringing to the St. Louis shoebox swap this Saturday. It was inspired by my favorite treat (: I made this little treat by using my cricut. I cut the apple out twice using a sheet of 12x12 red and a sheet of brown paper (one sheet cuts 4 apples on setting 5). I used thick clear embossing powder on the caramel and I rubbed stickels over the caramel to give it a yummy glow (:
The back is stamped with a Stampin Up stamp and reads love ya bunches.
I made this paper bag card using the new stamp set Whimsical Autumn designed by Carolyn King at
My Blog. This stamp set can be purchased on Gina K Designs website and it will benefit the Alzheimer's research. Carolyn recently lost her Grandmother to this awful illness, so go support her effort and buy this amazing stamp set!
