Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #10 - Custom Sentiments

Here is Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #10 - Custom Sentiments, below is the challenge photo:

And here is the card I made to attend this challenge:

I stamped "When Life Gives You" with Lawn Fawn's Milo's ABC's set with Versafine black ink and clear embossed them. I also stamped three lemons and lemonade with Lawn Fawn's Make Lemonade mini set with Versafine black ink and clear embossed them. It makes the custom sentiments of "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade". Then I masked the lemons and lemonade and brushed three different colors of Distress Oxide inks all over the background. I use a curve line die to cut out the background into two parts and applied foam tapes to mount them on a piece of yellow cardstock. I removed the masks and colored lemon and lemonade with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush. I also highlighted some areas with clear Wink of the Stella pen. Finish the card by sprinkled some water on the Distress Oxide background and dropped some Tonic Studio Nuvo crystal drops. Below is another look of the card:
