Oh boy, when life hands you a new twist........I want to keep this a cheery place but my son and our family had a big disappointment this week. We are getting on with life and will probably be in a better place because of this. So we are trudging forward and I thought that making this card was fitting.
I've used Feeling Fruity from Whimsy Stamps. And don't we all know.......when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! :)
I made a cute little shaker card using various sequins from Pretty Pink Posh......clear, summer sequin mix, and lemon meringue. The circle was die cut with the Stitched Mats: Circles from Lil' Inker Designs.
I'm playing along with the Catered Crop challenge to make Shaker Cards!
Thanks for sharing a part of your day with me!
