Fruit & Veggie Valentine

Hi!  It's been a LONG time....so sorry for my absence.  I've been kept very busy by travel and opening my Etsy store.  I have a new website...it's a slow work in progress, but ABA will still be here on Blogger.

Anyway, I had an old apple in my fridge that was starting to wrinkle and I thought I'd make some valentine prints with it!  No doubt, you've seen this project....it's been around forever, so I'm showing you nothing new.  BUT...even I had forgotten about this golden oldie of a Valentine project, so I thought I'd post it just on the off chance that someone out there hasn't seen fruit & veggie prints.  THis is great for DIY Valentine cards or just for a dun painting project.

It's as simple as 1, 2, 3...
Get an apple or potato and slice a bit off.
With a knife cut the shape of your heart...or whatever then cut away the surrounding part of apple.
Press onto a paper towel to remove excess moisture then dip into paint and print!

Have fun & get messy!
