Mornin' y'all! The hubs has had to work some odd hours lately so he wasn't home for dinner yesterday, and so Ryan and I went on a date to Texas Roadhouse : ) That child put away four rolls, ate all his dinner, and *then* begged for ice cream. He says he has two stomachs and I believe him. We're gonna have to start saving up now to feed him when he's a teenager.
Anyway, I shared a lemon card yesterday and guess what, I have another one today. Check it out:
As soon as I saw the Inspired By... challenge, I knew I would be using the Mediterranean Blooms DSP that recently went on the Last Chance List.
It's got lemons and a bunch of patterns in blues, so perfect. I paired that with the peekaboo sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:
It was kind of an interesting brain exercise to figure out how to cut the papers so the lemons peeked out where I wanted them, but I like the result. I think I'll send this one to my parents as it reminds me of the vintage fruit crate labels from where they grew up in California.
Gotta hustle Ryan out the door. Cheers!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Sending Smiles
Ink: Daffodil Delight, Old Olive
Paper: Lemon Lolly, Thick Basic White, Mediterranean Blooms DSP

Perfect positioning of those lemons Christy - and a lovely mix of blues and yellows too. Your tale of your dinner date with Ryan made me chuckle - my Ben is now 17 years old, 6ft tall with serious hollow legs - he could eat me out of house and home without even trying lol!! Teenage growth spurts are something else!
Oh, gracious, Christy! You ACED the placement, and I have to say that is one of the prettiest papers I have ever seen! So fabulous with the tiny daisy on navy paper!
I'm sure your parents will love it - it sure brightens up our gallery at FMS! Thanks so much for playing along again this week!

So pretty with the detail on that paper peeking through the patterned frame! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Delightful summer vibes. Thanks for joining us at FMS this week.
