Watermelon Thank You Card

Happy Tuesday, everybody! I hope your week has started off on a nice note! Has the weather warmed up any where you are? It’s still chilly here but we’re expected to have temps in the 60s this week so just maybe spring has sprung! Leslie here, sharing a super cute watermelon thank you card featuring our new Lessebo cardstock! I used Lessebo Cherry Red, Pitch Black, Hunter Green and White cardstock. And I also used Cougar Smooth White cardstock for the envelope. I totally enjoy making fun cards and 3D projects with my Cricut, and have quite a few cut files. This particular one is easy and works up fast, and would be adorable as a summer party invite! The sky is the limit, as they say!

Cut Card Base & Layers

Using an electronic cutting machine, cut the card pieces and envelope.
1. Cherry Red for the card base and watermelon layer.
2. Pitch Black for the seed layer.
3. Hunter Green and White for the rind.
4. White for the inside sentiment layer.
5. Cougar Smooth White and Hunter Green for the envelope and flap layer.

Adhere Layers

To create the focal panel, adhere the seed layer beneath the watermelon layer and then adhere the two rind pieces.

Next, adhere the white sentiment layer to the inside of the card base.

Finally, adhere the green flap layer to the underside of the envelope flap.

Stamp Sentiments

Stamp the front and inside sentiments in black ink.

Complete Project

Affix the focal panel to the front of the card base.

Assemble the envelope.
