Create With Stamping With Friends Creatively Simple 145

It’s A Foodie Theme This Month!

Welcome to a weekly Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple where Connie & I create simple cards with a theme. This month, our them is…

My foodie for this week are tomatoes! This makes me think if my younger days when I hated tomatoes as a child. Mostly because of the seeds in them. I love tomatoes now as an adult, but prefer to eat roma tomatoes because of their lack of seeds. I even grow them in my raised bed veggie garden. I have 12 tomato plants growing as I write this.

The tomato image is from the Market Goodness Bundle and the To Market Designer Paper. I love how the two products are matchy-matchy:

The tomatoes are stamped with the two-step stamping technique. I started out with the red tomatoes and then added the green vines:
