Morning Chat Challenge – Summer

Good Morning Everyone!

Donna at Butternut Sage Designs gave us a great challenge this time.  Her challenge was

PICNIC 

create a card with a picnic theme. 

  
The other day a new lady came in the chat room – if you have not ventured in you should as we have a fun time every day – and asked us if we had any ideas for make a card that would fit in a business envelope.  She was looking for something different so I suggested she cut the front of the card in 3 pieces and as each part opened there would be patterned paper for the rest of the side.

When we were talking about the challenge I knew I wanted to use that idea for my card for this challenge.

I began by making the ant panel because what picnic doesn’t have ants.  Next I did the watermelon panel as you have to have watermelon at a picnic.  That left the last panel and I had no idea what I was going to do.  I decided I would search for some punch art for a hot dog or hamburger.  When I did my search it took me to Ann Marie’s blog where I found a cute grill she had made.  I decided to case her grill for my card.  Here is my PICNIC creation.

So what did you think of my picnic card?  I had lots of fun making it.  I hope you had a fun 4th!  Thanks for looking and have a Great Day!
