Judi's challenge asked us to be inspired by a food that reminds us of Summer in a CAS format. Karen's challenge asked us to use water in the making of a card. So, I combined the challenges by using watercolor as a technique in the coloring of these juicy summer peaches.
Growing up my BFF lived across the street- Mary Agnes Parisi- and they had a big peach tree in their backyard. One year the tree got struck by lightening right down the middle and that tree still bore fruit on both sides of the tree that was nearly split in half. I used to sit on the back steps with my friend and enjoy the peaches right from the tree.
I embossed the image in dark brown and watercolored the inside. A very simple sentiment, ribbon and gems keep it simple, but sweet. Thanks for viewing and commenting.
