  1. Holly, this is such a cute card! Watermelon is perfect for summer for sure. We actually eat at least one a week, and it’s just the two of us at home now. Your bear is really sweet, and you did a great job coloring him. I like the sentiment, and that watermelon slice at the bottom is the best! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We appreciate your participation!
