Fresh & Fruity Googly Eyed Fruit Bowl Thank You Card with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here today to share some inspiration with you. I just came back from Bali for my holiday, and I must say that I'm still in a holiday mood. Bali is one of the most popular holiday destination in Indonesia, both for local tourists and foreigners, and everyone loves to be there. I took inspiration from Bali's popular fruit stacks for my card. I used the Fresh & Fruity Stamp Set and it's coordinating dies to create this card.

I started my card with a piece of 4.25" x 5.5" white cardstock and blended Tumbled Glass Distress Ink on the bottom part to create a gradation. It helps to ground my bowl, so that it doesn't look like it's floating on air. I stamped all the fruit images from Fresh & Fruity Stamp with Versafine black ink and then watercolored them with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring I cut all of them with Fresh & Fruity coordinating dies. I love the thin white lines around the images ... perfectly cute! 

After I arranged all the fruits in the bowl, I felt somehow this card looked unfinished. I got the idea to create a "roof" so it looks like a fruit stall. I used the bigger scallop from Sunny Borders and drew lines in between each scallop, before coloring them in with red and white. To tie in all the red in my card, I die cut a "thanks" script from Vintage Jar Dies from red cardstock and finished the sentiment with "from the whole gang" using one of the stamp in Comfy Creatures.

Last but not least I adhered some googly eyes on every fruits to add extra cuteness. Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you like my card and have a wonderful day!
