Just in case the post title made you think you'd see something from or about New York -- nope, we're talking real apples, the kind a kid takes to his teacher. At Pile It On this fortnight, our challenge theme is "Animals Dressed Up" and our fabulous sponsor is QKR Stampede, where you'll find dozens of cute images of animals in human clothing. I happen to adore QKR images, and they have both rubber stamps and digis. This one is a digi called, appropriately enough, "Big Apple." Go find a "dressed up animal" image and then come play in our challenge.
My daughter actually requested a card that would go along with a gift basket of classroom supplies she's donating to my youngest grandson's school. I did a super CAS, single-layer design, and the image is hand-colored with ProMarkers. The only embellishment is the little red bow.

Is everyone in your family already back to school? Or does your school district start after Labor Day? When I was a kid, we always started on either the Tuesday or Wednesday after Labor Day Monday, which seemed to mark the 'official' end-of-summer, at least for the kids. Of course, we didn't get out of school until the end of the second week in June. My grandkids all start in mid-August now, and get out sometime in May -- always before Memorial Day, in any case.
I hope we're going to see you playing along with us this time. Just get your animals dressed up and come play. :-D Happy Stamping. NanaConnie
