Life is a Picnic!

I picked this cute stamp up at HL and I wanted to use it so bad. I started out by using my decorative scissors around the green background paper by DCVW. I stamped the little grass images from Roughing it as if the bee was sitting on the grass. I used my paper tearing ruler for the gingham dp. I stamped the watermelon bee onto whisper white c/s with black stazon. I then used my primascolor pencils with mineral spirits for the coloring. I started to mount it to black c/s but didn't look right so I trimmed the image close just barely showing. I picked the ribbon up at HL when they were having a huge clearance on a few years ago and thought it would work great with this card. The gingham dp is held on with pop dot squares. I attached some felt flowers with rhinestones in the corner. I used diamond glaze for the watermelon, liquid applique for the salt, and stickles for the twinkling from the bees antlers. I wish I had some ants to put on this card. Oh well!
Thanks for dropping by!
