You're One in a Melon

Here is another fun card with the One in a Melon stamp set.  


I used Calypso paper for the background of the card. Using Cotton Candy and Pear inks, I stamped the watermelon across the bottom.  I stamped "You're one in a Melon" directly on the card with Cotton Candy ink and then again in Pear on a piece of scrap cardstock.  I cut out each letter (yes - each letter!) and added it to the top of the Cotton Candy letters using little tiny strips of foam tape.  That is what I love about foam tape!  You can cut it into what ever width you need!

Since this stamp set coordinates with the Artistry Cricut cartridge I was able to cut out the pineapple and then stamped it onto my shape.   The little arrow at the top is one of the Calypso compliments.  I added black sequins from the Calypso sequins pack to accent my card.

OK - I think I'll go eat some watermelon now!

I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
