It's the weekend again - and I'm back to share another card using our latest kit from the Creative Cafe's- Too Much Sun!
Today I decided to make a wreathe out of the lemons! You know what they say when life gives you lemons... well I made a wreathe instead of lemonade.
Before adhering my squares down I distressed the edges with my scissors and inked them all with Antique Linen- Distress Ink. I used Scrap Happy glue to adhere them to my card. I used this so I would have time to align and adjust them evenly on my card front. As you see below:
I used the orange wire cord in the kit and loosely wrapped it in a few rounds - using again my Scrap Happy glue I adhered it down. I used some painter tape to hold in place until my glue had dried.
To finish I laid my cluster lemons in a round wreathe shape working in my leaves as I went. I used pop-up dots to adhere it to my card front - and a stamped phrase from the set 'Sending you Sunshine' tops it all off!
Here's a close-up - thanks for stopping by, I hope you're being inspired this month to take time out of all the summer time fun to stamp and create some cards of your own!
