REFRESHING LEMONADE, ANYONE?

 


I needed a sweet little hello (in the form of a card), and the perfect pitcher-shaped creation was found in Cricut Design Space.  It was a design by Robin Hardy, and I nearly squealed with excitement when my eyes saw it!  The sweet lady who will receive this card recently lost her husband, and I wanted a cheery way to let her know that it's okay to not be okay.


It's a cheery little card, isn't it?


I brushed the background layer with Wink of Stella, and (roughly) smoothed Nuvo Crystal Drops onto the lemon slices to make them look a wee bit real.


The tiny lemon slice embellishments were found at Trinity Stamps.  I don't know if they're polymer clay, but they are so freakin' cute!  I really had no ideas for how or when I would use them--they were just so cute that I thought I should have them, and wasn't this the perfect project?  Have a closer look:


And let's take one more look at the card:


It makes me want a cool glass of tangy lemonade, but I just hope it makes the recipient smile.
