Watermelon Gnomies Slimline Cards

Looking for absolute cuteness???  Then look no further!  Close To My Heart's new Chillin' With My Gnomies stamp set is just that!!  Today, I want to feature the watermelon gnomie.  He is stinkin' cute (at least in my opinion!)  And because of his simple lines, he is easy to manipulate and use the piecing technique with - which I love!


When designing these cards, I wanted to use the Smoothie cs but quickly found that I didn't have a marker that was close in color to our Smoothie.  So, easy win...I stamped the gnomie on Smoothie cs and cut out the center of the watermelon out with my non-stick scissors and then pieced it into my watermelon.  I then used the same technique to stamp, and paper piece his little hat.

The slimline overlays were from Close To My Heart's Artbooking Cricut Collection, were manipulated, and resized in Cricut Design space.  There are a multitude of possibilities in this collection that are perfect for Slimlines with just a little tlc!

All three of these Slimline cards are a create and take that I designed for the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo Red, White and Blue event and my be purchased my shop.  Here are detailed photos of the cards.

"You are one in a melon" Slimline card.
