Watercolor Watermelon

The background for this card is a total and utter CASE (Copy and Share Everything) from Kreativformat on Instagram. I loved the stripes, and the fresh vibrant colours. It was the perfect fit for today’s As You See It Challenge!Themes are so fun and completely open to interpretation. I feel like the colours on my card are bright and fresh, but the watermelon is also juicy fresh fruit.

I used an Aqua Painter to paint with my Stampin’ Up inks: Flirty Flamingo, Call Me Clover, and a wee bit of So Saffron. I drew in the watermelon seeds by hand using my journaling pen after the ink was completely dry, then I stamped the cheerful sentiment “happy life” from the Tabs for Everything stamp set with Tuxedo Black Momento ink.I die cut the watermelon image with a Stitched Shapes framelit circle, then matted it with the Cool Caribbean scallop circle , die cut with a Layered Circle scallop. The tag is created with the Scallop Tag Punch and a piece of the Share What You Love Designer Series paper. The background was created using a piece of Whisper White cardstock and 1/2″ strips of Gray Granite, Mint Macaron, Soft Seafoam, So Saffron, Petal Pink, and Flirty Flamingo cardstock.I loved the look so much that I tried it with another image as well.

Which card do you like best?
