Theme: Fruit

Fruit is our theme this week on Sunday Postcard Art (SPA).

From my stash, I pulled out an old promotional booklet (from a Paper Company) that featured vintage produce ads. My postcard's background paper is actually a picture of an apple crate. I then chose three fruit labels and decorative papers for my card. Last, I added highlighting with oil pastels.

This was an interesting challenge for me because I picked two colors (orange and green) that I normally don't like to work with. Be sure to check out the other creative entries on SPA. (My post is late due to Typepad issues which have been resolved.)
