To create my apples and pears, I first die cut the fruit out of white cardstock. Then, I started daubing several colors until I was happy.
I created my "accidental background" when I was coloring my fruit on a piece of scrap piece of cardstock. I thought it looked so pretty with the colors all mixed up, so I decided it would be the best background for my card.
There's still some time if you want to create your own card. Here's a link to all the rules.

<<< DESIGNER TIP OF THE DAY >>>
Don't be afraid of colors. Most objects have several different, sometimes surprising colors. I used four colors on my apples and three on my pears. I tried several different color combos before I was happy.
Jump in and give it a try! And remember, it's only paper.
May the Lord be glorified by the work of my hands,
Pamela
