Well, I must say – I am not at all familiar with the true color of Watermelon Wonder or Taken with Teal. Pineapple Punch was my only ace in the hold for this challenge. So for me, the challenge began with trying to best represent Watermelon Wonder and Taken with Teal. Of course, I had to research thoroughly online before I could allow myself to make the final call. For this challenge Watermelon Wonder became Calypso Coral and Taken with Teal became Bermuda Bay.

I chose to go with a stamp set that has been screaming at me for some time now – the Batik Boutique, 2 floral images that are quite happy to take center stage, with filler images to boot. This stamp set does not have sentiments, so for the sentiment I reached for On the Horizon stamp set. The final panel is die cut with Scalloped Contours. I used first and second generation stamping with Calypso Coral. The Bermuda Bay flowers in the background, I wound up reaching for my colored pencils.
