Hello Sunshine...

 

I had cut out a few lemons with my Silhouette for a commissioned card and had some left over, so I decided to make this card.. I added the die-cut fancy oval and a very bold stamped sentiment.

I inked around the edges of each lemon and then embossed them with a randomly bumpy embossing folder.

The leaves were created with some leaf dies in my stash. 

The largest lemon was popped up on foam tape.

I still had a small lemon, so I added that one to the inside of the card along with a stamped sentiment.

I actually still have three lemons left to make another "Hello Sunshine" card, which I hope to get done soon.

This week I have been culling some of the really, really old craft supplies in my craft area. I am either tossing them or donating them. It feels good to get rid of some of it. I had inherited a lot of items when my mother passed away in 1992. I figured if I haven't looked at them in 31 years, it's time to make them available to someone who will appreciate and use them. There were a lot of embroidery kits and craft books that I think someone else will enjoy. I also threw out a large box of dried and fake flowers that I had collected over the years. I saved just one little bunch of daffodils that I put on my dining room table.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
