CAS285 - Watermelon Color Palette (8/11/14) by Lori
Thank you Lori for the wonderful color palette!

I do indeed like watermelon and so have taken the challenge literally.

I've used Lil' Inker "on the diagonal" die to represent the slice of sweet melon. The seeds are the fragments from die cutting with Lil' inker "swirls" cover up die.

Thank you for viewing and enjoy the vestiges of Summer!
