Stamp Happy: Sweet Watermelon

Hello, and happy weekend! Our Crazy 4 Challenges team has a new challenge for you today! Since July is known as National Hot Dog month, we’re incorporating picnic themes in our creations today!

Well…. I went through all my stamps and dies, and would you believe I just had nothing to use? And even at my crafty day last week with friends, no one had any stamps with them that would do! So I turned to my favorite digital images at A Day for Daisies and created this card…

Who doesn’t love watermelon at a picnic, right? So I printed out this juicy Watermelon Wedges image from ADFD to create my card. I colored with Copics for another day of coloring in The Daily Marker 30 Day challenge. And I added some green gingham paper from the Farm Fresh Gingham Paper Pack from My Favorite Things, because every good picnic includes a gingham tablecloth, amiright? Using some Blu Raspberry card stock, I die-cut the “you” using the You craft die from Simon Says Stamp. (I get SO MUCH use out of that die!) and then to finish the sentiment I added “are so sweet” which comes from the LLD Donuts and Sprinkles stamp set from MFT. Behind the die cut circle, I added a double-ended Fishtail Flags STAX Die-Namics cut from Razzle Berry card stock, and embellished with some black enamel dots.
