New Sets are in the Store!
I have one last fruity card to share before I wrap things up for the weekend. This very simple card uses Flourishes’ new Life, Love & Lemons set. I mounted the lemon slice, the wedge, and the juice droplets all on one block and stamped it twice, then colored with Prismacolor markers. I colored over the juicy parts with a Sakura clear glaze pen and added a little bit of Stickles glitter for sparkle.
I wondered at first what I might use this sentiment for, but this card is on it’s way to someone who has been running a little low on juice lately and perhaps this very bright and juicy card may help to perk her up a little bit. That vivid orange certainly is an eye opener, isn’t it? Yikes!
So, here they are…the sets we’ve been previewing this week…click for a close up:

A very fun and colorful card. I’m sure it will be a pick-me-up for your friend. I know what you mean about preparing for a vacation - we’ve been trying to get things ready for a couple weeks.
Adorable card! Lemons look like real!
So glad that you will have a vacation soon! Hope preparations will not be so long!
Perfect and cheerful for someone a little low on juice! I was a little confused with that sentiment too LOL!
This is cool! I like the juicy look of those lemon slices across the center. Enjoy your vacation!
Leslie — this is bright and fun and…. I love the sparkle!!!

It would certainly perk ME up Lesley! It’s a little smasher!

Leslie - your lemon slices card is sensational with the Sakura clear glaze pen effects. I adore the way you’ve made those sliced lemons pop and look so realistic. I am just amazed with your lemon card and degree of your talent. I hope you’re going to have a wonderful vacation.

Perfect bright juicy colours. I keep seeing these wonderful “citrus” cards and know that I need that set! I like the button detail too.
