Trish chose Ann(Dockside) as the new queen for this week. Ann has a terrific gallery with many beautiful cards. She is also a stamper that leaves well thought-out comments to encourage and compliment other SCSers. Since I'm more "inspired by" than actual "CASE-er", I chose this CARD for its color which reminded me of a watermelon and its layout. Turning her lovely spring card into one for summer.
Jeanne's F4A was to use things from our stash that tend to linger there. The gingham ribbon is one of mine. Have rolls of ribbon and seldom use them on my cards anymore......get crushed in mailing and get "tired" looking as bows, etc after awhile. The other "stashed" item is the grunge stamp that I used to make watermelon's stripes in the bg. I think the grunge stamps look so neat when I see them, but then rarely use them......could be that I'm not too good with the grunge style. : )
A BIG CONGRATS, Ann. Your work is beautiful, you are a most kind person....a WELL-deserved honor. Enjoy!!

Oh My Goodness! Your coloring has always been at the top of the charts but you outdid yourself on this one! Who would have thought to use a grunge stamp for a watermelon pattern! Sally, this is phenomenal!
