Lemonade Stand Card

Hi Paper Lovers....

My Gypsy is HOME!!!! and its WORKING!!!! I am so excited...I have missed her OH SO MUCH!!! I have been wanting to make this card ever since I saw the Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy sentiment on the Scrappy Mom's A Pinch and a Dash set!!! As soon as I finished uploading ALL my carts AGAIN to my Gypsy and finished her update...I got right to work and this is what I came up with!!!!!

here is all the size info....

The BANNER is cut from Straight From the Nest at 1"

The STAND I designed in my Gypsy by welding different size rectangles together.

The LEMON at the top of the stand is cut from Simply Charmed at 1.8"

The BOWL is cut from Simply Charmed at .8"

The CUP is also cut from Simply Charmed at .8"

The GRASS is cut from Create a Critter at 1"

The SIGN on the front of the stand is cut from Walk in my Garden at 3.1"

The LEMONS in the bowl are circles from a regular hole punch.

This card came out exactly how it was in my head =)

Here is my YouTube tutorial....Thanks everyone for stopping by and have a blessed day!!!

Hi Paper Lovers....



My super sweet friend Trish has been organizing a card drive for a special little girl Madison who has Leukemia. As a Mother or two young boys, what this little girl and her family are facing....just breaks my heart...I can not even imagine. We all can do a little part in bringing a smile to her adorable face! There is still time to send cards...please click HERE to go to Trish's blog for all the information. Even if you can not send a card....please pray for her and her family for strength during this most difficult time!

Here is the card I made for Madison....I pray it does bring a smile to her face...cause SMILES ARE CONTAGIOUS....and so is kindness!



Please take some extra time to love on your kids, family, friends, whoever you care about! We are so very very blessed!!!
