I used re-inkers on a stack of baby wipes to create a custom color ink pad for the pear, I masked the stem and colored with marker before stamping. light mist pear before stamping with water to help colors blend.

I used ruby red on this card, not the burgundy and I can't find where to edit the info under the photo. sorry for the mix up. I bet the burgundy would still be a nice choice but it'd be much darker than the ruby red!! enjoy - Lisa

I think the pear colors are fantastic! Great color idea, I'm going to try the baby wipe technique now too. The ribbon pulls it all together! Terrific card!

Great inspiration. Love that baby wipe idea. I am going to have to go buy some today.. (Oh, Ron, will you go to the store for me?) He is so great to be at my beck and call! Thanks for the idea, Lisa!
