A Slice of Summer

Well, I have two girls, two scrapbooks and therefore two watermelon pages! LOL! This is Isabelle chowing down on some fresh melon. Is there anything that captures the taste of summer as well as a fresh melon?

I altered the pic digitally to make the melon stand out. I made bead flowers and added them to the large blooms to give a little bit of sparkle.

Thanks for looking!
