Wacky Watermelon

"When do you go at red and stop at green? 
...eating watermelon!" 
(according to my 8 year old cousin). 


A summer staple. 
A Fourth of July necessity. 

This design is really cute and fun for summer. 
Instead of a watermelon design that looked like a green french tip, 
I decided to switch things up and turn the 
watermelons all different directions to liven it up.
 The base color is a bright little-bit-darker-than-bubble-gum pink. 
Add random and alternating light or mint green tips and stripes to be the rind. 
Add contrasting smaller stripes of a darker green to the 
light green to be the stripes on the exterior rind. 
Finish off with a few black dots here and there for seeds and a top coat.
