Happy Friday, everyone! The weekend is upon us, yay! It's time for a new As You See It challenge, too, and we have some fun, summery colors for you:
My original idea for this card featured something totally different, but it just wasn't doing it for me, so I decided to go in a different direction altogether:
I made a big juicy slice of watermelon with my colors, doesn't it look yummy? I used the ice cream drip from Sweet Ice Cream for the "seeds", and a few tendrils from the Patterned Pumpkins dies. I added some Peach Pie flowers and mounted it all on a Basic White mat that was embossed with the Eyelet embossing folder:
My sentiment is from the retired Sunny Splash:
And for the life of me, I couldn't get my photo program to capture the Peach Pie base, so you'll just have to use your imagination! The sentiment is from Sunny Sentiments, also retired:

Oh, yes it does look yummy - fun, bright, and cheerful, too! Thanks for the tip for the seeds!

What a cute summer card and yes, it looks yummy! I bought a melon the other day, cut it and it was bright yellow inside. I said what the heck, then read the label... yep a yellow watermelon and it's delicious!
I LOVE watermelon and yours looks delicious. I like the way you've manufactured it out of all sort of bits and pieces - clever thinking. :-)
such a delicious design LeAnne! So creative!
Very clever - and a great non-floral use of these colours too!
