Just love that melon image! And is that your handwriting? WOW! I wish mine looked like that, not sure I'd ever buy a sentiment stamp again! Love the ribbon and star holding back the corner - great stuff!

Oh my STARS, Wow, I wish my watermelons grew that big..it's a monster.
How cool that you mixed the B/W images with that very vivid stripe.
The Together letters are great and I love how you flipped the corner with the ribbon treatment. Thanks for creating a 2nd card for this week's challenge...love that l o n g shape.

How awesome!!! Your fun, vibrant card really connects us to the people and activities in the pictures so that even though they are vintage/sepia, they really come across as part of an ongoing tradition; TFS!!!!!
