 I was not going to shoot for this challenge but then I got covid. After being stuck at home for days and having to stay in AND having bananas I decided to do it. I didn’t want black or white for a back ground - I wish I had a royal blue piece of paper but I didn’t, I did have this mint color and liked it better than plain white/black.

I loved the minty background, and the carved out teeth, made me laugh.

Congratulations, you can̢۪t put a foot wrong lately :)

I love the background ..!!..
it works so well with your wonderful design ..

I ate a frozen banana a little while ago .. I can't recommend them enough .. frozen is like having an ice cream but with none of the bad ingredients ..
and about 5 minutes ago I had some blueberries .. I get a little down when they go out of season ..

anyway .. enough about me .. lol .. ;)

this is just wonderful .. and out of a difficult situation something excellent emerged .. ie. this image AND getting a blue ribbon for it ..

many congrats and I hope you're feeling a lot better now .. :)

I'm not at all a fan of the background color.

But, I ADORE every single other thing about this!
