We don't have a watermelon patch, but we probably should for all the watermelon we eat in the summer. I love it in smoothies too! : )
Irene is the QFTD and such a deserving Queen she is! A fabulous gallery...AND always leaves the sincerest comments on other's cards. She had so many cards that I would love to case, but I chose this one since I was so enamored with that interlaced loop edging when she first posted it! SO clever!! It wasn't as easy to do as I thought it would be either! I changed the colors, image, and proportions, but kept the loopy laced edging and general layout.
Enjoy your week, Irene!

What a special card... the painting... the interlooping of the martha punches.. the colors... the thought behind it... you have gone way over the edge GF... LOVE IT ALL... We have watermelon growing.. but they are very small this year... the size of a cantelope... but very sweet and delicious... I think yours are wonderful... and grow some next year... they are so good when you pick them fresh... love this Sallie...
