I’m back to share two cards with you today. The first is lemony goodness thanks to this new set from Flourishes called Live, Love and Lemons. Of course I had to throw in the Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Pendant, but I really wanted to dress it down a little bit to go with this casual card. See, how nicely that Pendant fits with the Spellbinders that are already in my collection? I’m just sayin’ . . . It reminds me of lace in this case, but it’s a nice little dressy touch but not as frou-frou as my samples from the previous two days.
I watercolored the lemons image with Tombow markers and popped up an additional cut out of the image for some dimension, placing it on Spellbinders Classic Square Large. Next I layered Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Pendant followed by Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Squares, Large. After stamping/masking five of the lemon slices, I cut out my self made border and mounted it on the bottom of my card. The rectangular tag is a retired Spellbinders tag that fit my sentiment perfectly.
My next card is today’s Sketch Challenge on Splitcoast – I haven’t played along on one of those for quite some time. For Sketch Challenge #234 I selected one of the June releases with Our Daily Bread Designs called Ask, Seek, Knock. I divided the sentiment so that it could fill the two side panels that the sketch calls for. Both selections today are rather clean and simple.

Your work is excellent. The cards are elegant and calming with the soft colours and the delicate ribbons. Well done.
Goodness these are pretty! I like how you did the bottom sketch; the way you put the sentiments in the corners is very interesting and creative.

Good evening, Becca – both cards are so very different to me yet both are so very beautiful. I love the modern touch you have achieved with the first one and I find the latter very peaceful to look at with the soft muted colours. In real life I’m sure they are both very striking.
My Gosh Becca – how on earth do you do it!!! One amazingly stunning card after another!!!! It is always such a joy to visit your blog!!
Becca,
Beautiful cards, both of them. What a treat for you to share two cards with us today. I love the lemons, so summery ans cheerful. I love what you have been making with your new Spellbinder’s die-cut. Gorgeous stuff!

Fantastic cards! The lemon card is just delicious looking and I like the calm feel of your second card. They are both really lovely.
Becca, you are amazing! Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Beautiful Becca. Another idea to use the Fleur-De Lis pendant with the Scalloped square background. And the Daily Bread design card is beautiful too. I love how you use your ribbons. Awesome
