Hello!! I squeezed four more Dare To Get Dirty Challenges into this card. I will save this for one of my niece's birthdays later in the year. The sentiment at the bottom is from the 'Flip Flop Fun' set and was stamped directly onto some Basic Grey 'Lemonade' paper which coordinated with the felt watermelon. The polka dot banner was cut from ODBD 'Blushing Rose Collection' designer paper with a layer of vellum as a mat. The letters at the top from the 'Pennant Alphabet' set were stamped with Stazon onto a re-purposed stamp package insert, cut out with scissors, made into stickers, and layered onto the pennants cut with the ODBD Custom 'Pennants' Die Set. The bumblebee from the 'Zinnia' set was stamped, cut out with the ODBD Custom 'Zinnia and Leaves' Die Set, colored with a yellow marker and glitter pen, then adhered with foam tape. To match the black gems in the watermelon and the black pearls on the banner, I used Black Stickles for the bee trail. Yes, this card is a bit 'funky', but I love the fun colors!! Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!
