Welcome to this week's project! I have been having lots of fun making these caramel apple cards.
They are quick and easy to put together.
Print an apple pattern.
Cut it out, including most of the leaves on top.
Trace *two* apples onto a piece of paper.
On one of the apples, draw a dripping caramel pattern. Be as messy as you like-it's hot caramel after all!
Cut out caramel and apple patterns.
Trace onto brown and green and/or red cardstock.
Shade the caramel edges with a brown ink pad, if desired.
Glue caramel to front of apples.
Glue a popsicle stick to the back.
Tie on a little ribbon.
Or a "sweet" tag.
You can send to a friend as is, or glue apple to the front of a card.
Another fun idea is to place your card in a clear goodie bag, along with shredded paper and lots of caramel candies!
I hope you have enjoyed this week's paper project!

I love your caramel apple card, I could eat that card! :) I think this is one of my favorites, thank you for sharing!
These are so cute!!! I absolutely love the idea!
Hi Kelli- These candy apples are wonderful! I'm using your idea for Sunday School this week. I've made the "candy apples" and put the memeory verse on the apple. Then I used the tag to say "(Child's Name Here) Memory Verse". They turned out wonderful and I wanted to thank you for sharing art!!! They go perfect with the lesson I already had planned. Have a blessed day! -Jules
These cards are just adorable. I love your choices of color and paper. They are deliciously sweet.
I made these cards :) They came out really cute. I'll be posting them on my blog when I get around to taking pics of them. I'll link back to your idea.
Kelli,
