Cricut 360 Challenge #6

Good Morning!
Its still HOT HOT Hot here in the valley! So what do I think of as refreshing? Lemons and lemonade...it's "A Slice Of Summer" That is our challenge this week over at Cricut 360! Things that are refreshing! ahhhh....
For this card, I used George Basic Shapes to make the circles and the triangles. I chalked all the pieces very lightly and used a white marker for the slices inside. I used a stamp in the background for a touch of swirl...and just added pearls on the tips as well as the center on the lemon. I actually have white paper in the back and ribbon but it didn't show the way I thought it would...oops...it was a boo boo...lol....guess it can happen sometimes...i just made the best of it!
A side view: I used some green leaves instead of stamps....I also found free lemon clip art re- sized them, printed, colored and glossed them. just to add a bit more lemons to the card...
I used the circle pathway again to make the title. Finished the card with a small yellow ribbon.
I hope this card quenches your thirst and inspires you to make something "refreshing" for this week's challenge over at Cricut 360!
Here is this week's PRIZE!....so come on over and play!

This card rocks! I love everything about it. The paper choices are phenomenal and I adore that you made your own lemon slices. The background black swirl stamp is the PERFECT finishing touch. Really, I adore this card and I hope you don't mind but it's going into my inspiration gallery. Thanks so much for making this Lisa! ~ Sabrina @ sabrioletdesigns.blogspot.com
