My favorite Summertime treat.

So I have this unmounted stamp. I am pretty sure I know it's a High Hopes stamp, but I need verification. So I go to the High Hopes online store and sure enough it's High Hopes.  However, in the process of verifying, stuff just started jumping into a basket!  Let's just say, NOT labeling can have its consequences.

Watermelon  is my most favorite summertime food.  It even surpasses (gasp!) chocolate.


I stamped on white card stock and colored her with Copics.  I wanted "Summertime",  but I had already stamped and colored her, so I couldn't do it on my PC, so I went with "Sunshine", which is a clear stamp from Snag'em Stamps.  The flower border is a sticker from Paper Studio. This is the first time, I've ever used a sticker and I just love them.  The only DP I used was as a backdrop and it is DCWV.  I did add a little Stickles to the top of the watermelon.
