Jewish New Year Cards

Growing up on an apple orchard, we did everything imaginable with apples, including using them as stamps. Around the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashana, it’s typical for Jews to send out New Years cards to friends and family. I had fun making these recently with our kids to wish our loved ones Shana Tovah and a sweet new year.

Apple Stamp Cards

Directions: Slice an apple in half from the stem down. Put a small amount of tempura paint on a plate and dip each half in like a stamp. Press onto thick cardstock-type paper. Use watercolor paints to add a stem and leaf and any personalized message. Mail as a postcard or pop them in an envelope to share.
