When Life Hands You Lemons...

you make lemonade! With a record heat wave scorching the entire country, an ice cold glass of lemonade sounds pretty good! This card will go to a dear friend who recently opened her home to us. John and I had such a nice time visiting and her hospitality warmed our hearts!

And speaking of warming my heart, a big thank you to my dear friend Sabrina for sharing some lovely products I am using on today's card! Thanks girl! You rock!



I enjoyed pulling out the Cricut to make die cuts for this project! I had the lemon DP on hand but thought it needed some fun cuts! The glass is 3 1/2 inches and the lemon itself is 2. Both are on the Just Because cartridge. And isn't this ODBD stamp the perfect sentiment? You can find this on The Living Bread set. Thanks as always for reading... a complete product list follows...

See ya next time!

Nice! Hey, look! Your glass is half-full! *grin* Do you use full sheets for your cards? They look bigger than half-sheet cards.
