Hi Stampers,

Happy Tuesday friends ! 

 This card has a few layers and not much stamping …. Well some stamping with the Hardwood stamp  for the background  and then the greetings on the front and inside But  mostly  cutting and layers  is what this card  focuses on .

The pears I hand cut out from the Farmers Marker designer paper # 138448

The funny thing is I really tried to hand cut the stems out with the pears and well out of the 5 I cut out only 2 with stems survived LOL! 

Even without all the stems and leaves, I still love this card .

Here is the inside  decorated  with the pears  I used the Apple of my Eye stamp set # 140736 for both the front and inside greetings .

 I think I have found a  small  pattern in my creations when I actually  sit down and create just for fun I tend to lean towards the multi layer kind of cards  so needless to say  since I  found  a little extra time to create goodies for my blog over the next week or so  you will see a few cards with lots of layers .

If you are one that  tends to  create with minimal  layers…. just cut back~ Trust me  there is no right or wrong in  creating~ it's just whatever you prefer .

Here is the inside~ I layered a couple of  those hand cut out pears  on the inside too .
