Watermelon Slice with Smiling Face

"Watermelon Slice with Smiling Face" works well as a craft template for cards, window decorations, or table settings. To frame the finished piece, mount it on colored cardstock, which instantly gives the work a more polished look.

The watermelon definitely needs intense red or bright pink for the flesh – feel free to mix red and magenta tones to make it look juicy. The green rind should be kept in a dark bottle green to create depth. Color the seeds in black or dark brown. The funny face gets even more character with a red mouth and black eyes. Yellow and orange for the sun add extra summery cheerfulness.
