Picnic Paradise Crossed With One In A Melon

This Alternative to Paper Pumpkin's July 2018 Picnic Paradise kit is so delightful.  I pulled out the stamp set from the June 2017 kit One In A Melon, using the watermelon stamp. The arrangement of the card is pretty much exactly like the designed 3x3 cards from the kit, 

except this one being a full size card. 

I stamped the watermelon image with Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade inks. I cut an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of Crumb Cake Cardstock in half at 5 1/2". Folding this piece in half makes your base for the card. The next layer is a piece of Whisper White Cardstock cut at 4"x 5 1/4", then I trimmed the Blue Plaid Tissue from the kit to 3 3/4" x 5". Adhere the tissue with some glue dots hiding them behind the Blue squares in the design of the tissue. I then wrapped the white twin around three times and tied a bow. Adhere the apple under the twine with glue then use dimensionals to adhere the rest of the fruit over the twine, also the white sentiment banner. The banner was stamped using the Detailed With Love stamp set from StampinUp! Annual Catalog.

Happy Stampin
