Framing Summer Citrus

Do you love lemons? In your tea, in water, in a pretty bowl on your table? I do!
I bought the Summer Citrus set when it first came out last year. I googled lemon illustrations and although I found amazing ideas, I never got around to using them. You could say the card with this set and color combo has been steeping on the back burner of my mind for a year. 

Turns out I really like how it turned out. I call it SWEET when that happens!



I've been focusing on appreciating and using what I have. The result?  I've never had more fun creating projects.
Achieving the right mix of Hero Arts inks was important for the lemons to look real and bright enough. I stamped each image repeatedly to add more color and detail.


I took a second photo in better light today so you can see the tone on tone background stamped on the Night of Navy card stock. Thanks for your visit! 

Be yourself
     Delight in your craft 
        Make something beautiful!
