The June Memory Box Challenge is Summer Vibes. The inspiration for my card was one of my favorite summer photos.
This photo of me was taken at a summer outing and published in the local newspaper … I felt like a rock star.
I stamped the whole watermelon from the Memory Box Thanks a Melon on a piece of green designer paper, and then I colored a few stripes with a darker green. I stamped the slice on white cardstock and colored it with markers.
I die cut two of the Memory Box Knotted Circle Wreaths from a coordinating pink cardstock and a third wreath from a darker watermelon hue. I finished with the coordinating sentiment from the set and sprinkles of black gems that reminded me of watermelon seeds (and made me smile as I remembered a watermelon seed spitting contest in a hotel hallway … and how much I miss my friend Diana).
I'm also linking-up at the Make Your Mark challenge at Addicted to Stamps & More!
What an adorable card! Love the happy colors and the way youse circle die cuts work with your watermelon pieces! Thanks for joining Addicted to Stamps and More “Make Your Mark” challenge. Cathy ATS&M DT.
