DCM 'Feeling Fruity!

The dare this week over at DCM is 'Feeling Fruity'................... Keryn has set the dare and she wants to see a piece of fruit on your card!...........

I'm sure this Watermelon stamp came from QVC in a wooden rack with loads of other stamps......about 48 i think! ........at the time i had only just started to make cards and thought that getting loads at once would be a good idea......wrong! ................truth is, i have now given away most of the stamps and this is the first time this one has ever seen ink!!!

Cardstock.... K&Co remake
Journaling Sheer.... Maya Road
Rub-ons.... American Crafts minimarks
Butterflies.... Dovecraft punch
Gems.... Papermania
Brads.... HOTP
scalloped edges... Fiskars 'Threading Water' punch
Image coloured with Adirondack & Distress inks
ribbon from stash!

I've thoroughly enjoyed the first day of my Holiday......i've made two cards today and even done some housework too!.......may even find time to do another challenge later............this certainly beats being at the office all day, and........i've not been spoken to like something on the bottom of one's shoe!!!................................so it's all good :)

    Oh my goodness Carol you deserve a medal - you have used the QVC melon that came with the set of stamps and storage rack that we all bought cause it seemed a good idea at the time!! To top the lot you have made a fantastic card with it too !! Holidays are definitely good for you - now can you do something stunning with the others you have left from the original 48? No pressure.
