Bright Summer Watermelon

Hi friends, Jeanne here. I hope you’re loving the fresh new release! My card today features the new Watermelon stamp and coordinating die set!

I like to arrange my images on a piece of clear plastic the size of my card face to help me decide on placement before I commit and adhere everything in place. It’s also easy to pick up the entire design and layer it over different backgrounds to choose which one I like best.

I stamped the sentiment in the center of a Scallop Oval Frame and then arranged the watermelon, slices and leaves around the frame.

I decided on a stitched zig zag border in watermelon shades of ombre red and green. I love the Stacked Edges series of dies because they make quick detailed backgrounds in a snap. The die cut borders fit together like puzzle pieces so the finished background is smooth and flat.

The finishing touch is a sprinkle of Lime Shimmer Confetti. They shine like juicy dewdrops!
