My inspiration came from the photo directly center............I think a cold glass of lemonade is one of the best things about summer. Now for my card.........I had this idea since receiving this set to design with to add a little lemon slice to the side of my glass......sooo fun!
I also made this for the challenge over at Wee Memories..........anything SUMMERTIME. There is still time to check out this challenge!!!

I'm off this evening to my son's last regular season baseball game. Kinda sad but never fear......we are going to the Single A World Series this weekend in Liberty, Missouri!!! Go Bulldogs! This picture was taken early on in the season where we actually HAD to wear sweatshirts! My little guy is the second one from the right (he's standing next to the boy without a hat). They have improved soo much this season and I can't wait to see what next season has in store for them!!
