Lennette, It was easy to do the crayola one. I bought this pattern but you could make your own and add your applique. I drew the appliques on good muslin, colored them, pressed them to heat set the color. If I wanted it darker, I just colored more and heat set again. I added the beading for a little spark. I machine appliqued and it was dificult to do the forgetme nots so I did hand embroider over these teeny appliques and added beads there too.
Have fun with it. You probably have some patterns with appliques in them and just make your blocks different sizes for interest.
