Lemonade Paper Bag Cards

-
Good Morning everyone.  I trust you are having a great day and are looking forward to a good weekend.  I know that much of the country is hot so I think this card is perfect for today.  This card was designed for a swap over at Art & Sassy. For more information on their great swaps, click here.  I made 3 cards for the swap and have an extra one to encourage someone else.



For this swap, I used the following items:
Paper lunch sacks from the dollar store
"Ice Blue" ribbon from 3 Girl JAM (here)
Recollections - yellow paper from the Spice Market and Jewel packs
My Mind's Eye - Stella and Rose "Hattie Papers" in 6X6
Close to My Heart - Indian Corn Blue ink
Memento - Tuxedo Black ink
TPC Studio stamps - Slice of Life
Spellbinders and Cuttlebug
Clear glitter glue
Scrappy tape and ATG adhesive


After I was all finished, I went to the dollar store and bought a box of individually wrapped lemonade packets.  I stuck a couple in each front pocket.  I thought it worked out really well.


Here is a video tutorial that I hope you will enjoy.



I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by today.  Remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today.
