Summer Watermelon Cards

 One of my favorite foods is watermelon.  I could attempt to live on it!  LOL  I made two different cards using the same watermelon set - from CTMH (no longer in business).

The first one is a more traditional colored watermelon card using red and green and black.  I used an EK Success edge punch and some black ribbon and gems.  I also used a Cuddlebug embossing folder.


My second card was made using pastels.  The paper pack is from a CTMH set from last year.  I added some purple gems.  The pink behind the sentiment is from an older Easter stamp set by CTMH.  The "Birthday" die is an older die that I have no clue who it's from.


So do you like the traditional or the pastel better?  I can't decide what one I like best.  LOL

I like non-traditional colorways and your pastel one grabbed my attention. (The top card is also nice though!) The fruity goodness is so cute! Thanks for playing with us this week at Just Us Girls "Summertime" challenge.
