Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week: Make Lemonade

Hello fellow crafters!

Today, the Lawn Fawn Design Team is showcasing “Make Lemonade” another mini-set not short on cuteness 😉

I decided to make a wall hanging with one of my favorite adages, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” I altered the color of the “Jump for Joy” Bright Side paper by using a yellow Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Gelato and my fingertips! I thought the circles resembled lemon slices. It was super easy! And then I used Jessie’s ABCs and various Memento Dew Drop inks to create the white word panel.

Here’s a quick video showing the Gelato technique I used on the paper:

Altering Paper with Gelatos

Hope you enjoyed the video!

I wanted to give a quick shout-out to one of my favorite crafty peeps evah… RYANN! Congratulations on your Moxie Fabber of the Week feature! You can find Ryann’s Blog, Freshly Squeezed HERE (very appropriate for today’s post, lol) and see her feature HERE!

Thank you,

    I always love this phrase and been thinking if I can incorporate it in card. Well, with Lawn Fawn “Make Lemonade”, it is possible now like what you did!
