Here's this week's CAS(E) this Sketch #322, compliments of yours truly.
I followed Stephanie's tutorial using glossy card stock and Distress Oxide inks
then followed up with a coating of Distress Glaze. I trimmed the fleshy part of
the fruit and added the "rind" on the bottom, then adhered them to a white
card base. The seeds and sentiment strip were cut from Steel Grey card stock
and adhered to the card.

Have you ever seen square watermelons? Apparently in Japan, they start
growing them in square molds and by the time they're ready to harvest,
a square watermelon is born. They're purely ornamental and not meant to be eaten
but still, fun to look at.

What a fun card! The square watermelon...odd but I can't imagine why you still can't eat them?! Anyway, love yours!
ReplyDeleteI do not like watermelon at all. But I LOOOOVE this card, Donna. Thanks so much for the inspiration sketch. ♥
ReplyDeleteOMG this is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab card, Donna. That square of watermelon is delightful! tfs
ReplyDeleteI love this card, Donna! The visual texture of your watermelon looks so realistic - juicy and sweet! Distress Oxide inks and Distress Glaze worked well. I've seen square watermelons on TV but I didn't know they weren't edible. Thanks for sharing!
