Joan's Touch Belly Band Challenge

Good Morning Ladies,
I got plenty of sleep last night and should be chipper this morning and today. I did wake up a couple of times with artsy things in my brain. I did not write them down.
The card for today is Joan's Touch Belly Band Challenge
The requirements are as follows...
Use polka dots
Make a gate fold card
Use a fancy belly band around the card
Use something that can be purchased from http://www.atjoansgardens.com/
You can see and enter the challenge here.... http://www.joanstouch.com/
The gate fold card base is made with DCWV cardstock. The polka dot layers is a card stock from Doddle Bug and the dots are glittered. 
The belly band was created using the same card stock. The flowers were created using a Cheery Lynn die purchased at Joan's Gardens and a Sizzix rolled rose die. The rest of the flowers are pre-made from Prima. The pearls were added to the center of the prima flowers. The zebra was stamped with purple die ink and hand cut. The zebra image is from Rubber Cottage. This is the same company that the sentiment from the first challenge card I made this week is from. 
 This is the gate fold card without the belly band.
This is the gate fold open to show the inside sentiment. The Doily Die is from Cheery Lynn. It is the Italian Flourish DL 103. This was also purchased from Joan's Garden and is one of my favorite dies.
This is a close-up of the die and sentiment.
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog
