Lemons are sour citrus fruits that grow on trees. There are many ways to use lemons. Next time you encounter one, remember funny lemon puns.
I don't know what it is about this citrus stamp set, but out of all the things in the new catalog, the Lemon Zest stamps and punch bundle made the final cut for my very first order! I think I just knew I was going to love the bright colors I'd likely be using with it, and the in-your-face cheer of the funny sayings. Those colors... yummo! The new Lemon Lime is just revitalizing all my combinations. I found it paired best with Pumpkin Pie as a nice bright orange, and Daffodil Delight was the best yellow for matching intensities....

Spotlight on Nature die
Join Kim Kesti in the Creative Classroom as she creates with a fresh, new die set from the Be Bold collection, called Lemon Zest. The Lemon Zest dies (S4-1173) include leaf dies with a unique feature. In this set you’ll find a 5-leaf cluster but also 5 extra half-leaf dies to add a highlight or shadow to the leaves. Simply die cut the half leaves using an alternate shade of cardstock and layer onto the leaf cluster to bring your leaves to life. To add extra dimension and personality, Kim adds some simple inking to the leaves and lemons. In today’s video, you’ll see Kim work on a Stencil Mat from Waffle Flower Crafts. This multi-function silicone craft mat features raised edges on two sides to hold cardstock and a stencil in the place. It’s also the perfect surface for Kim to blend Distress Inks onto her lemons and leaves. She uses Mustard Seed and Mowed Lawn to deepen the colors and add shading. Watch today’s video to see Kim’s trick to make the lemon’s white highlights pop. You can also see how she uses the slot at end of the lemon to attach it to the stem. The die set comes with additional stems, and blossoms to create fresh citrus bouquets and clusters. Watch video below or on Youtube: To create a bold background, Kim uses a favorite technique that begins with a white cardstock panel. Then she trims and adheres black cardstock stripes. She attached the striped panel onto a blue card base for a fresh and pretty springtime card. The only thing missing is a sentiment, so Kim uses the Many Birthdays stamp and die cutting set (coming soon!). This new set contains large script words Happy Birthday with coordinating dies, plus other birthday sentiment stamps to combine or use on their own. This is definitely a powerhouse set that you’ll use again and again. Kim adds the stamped sentiment to a die cut circle and then finishes off the card with die cut blossoms and Color Essential Gems. (What card is complete without a little sparkle?) Be sure to watch the video to see the beautiful color of the AB or Aurora Borealis effect on our new gems.

*This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp There are so many great dies in the Simon Says Stamp Dream Big release. This Lemon Zest set is another of my favorites that I couldn't wait to work with. I wanted my lemons to be on the graphic side of things, so I went with two yellows with a fair amount of contrast. I used the lighter for the lemon body and the dark for the highlights. For those little lemon 'freckles' I applied adhesive all over a small piece of printer paper, adhered it to the back of the lemon, and then inlaid the little bits. Two pretty different shades of green added to the contrast as did the ivory flowers with the yellow centers. I played around a bit with the different die cut pieces to get the arrangement right, and then I added some dimension by popping some pieces up with foam adhesive while adhering others directly to my cardstock mat. The sentiment is from the Reverse Chill Summer sentiment strips. That's all for me. Hope that you are staying cool where you are! After a week of high 90s, we're in the low 80s today and it feels great!
Hello Crafty Friends and welcome! Today's card was my runner up for the Craft Roulette challenge this week. I couldn't decide which of the two cards to use, but in the end I chose the fun fruit card to send in. For this card, I used Lawn Fawn's Zesty Lemon die set. For this card, I started with an A2 sized card using smooth black heavy weight cardstock. I die cut a rectangle using MFT - Stitched Rectangle A2 STAX in the largest die from gold glitter cardstock. Then I die cut a rectangle using MFT - A2 Double Stitched Rectangle STAX from smooth white heavy weight cardstock. I die cut several of the lemons and lemon slice from Lawn Fawn's Zesty Lemon die set from smooth white heavy weight cardstock. I colored each one with Copic markers to either look like a lemon or a lime. I also die cut the leaves, branches and flower buds and colored them as well with Copic markers. I then marked out an area to create a split down the middle of the card. I placed my lemons and limes across the area and glued them down once I had them placed where I wanted them. I then die cut a middle border strip to go right across the fruit. I stamped a sentiment on the top using Lawn Fawn's Jet Black Ink and MFT - Anything but Basic Birthday Wishes. Then I added a yellow gingham border, creating a scalloped edge using MFT - Stitched Basic Edges 2. I added foam tape to the back of the middle strip and then placed it down the center of the card. Lastly, I added a couple of tiny hearts I had from Sizzix. The final touch was adding Glossy Accents to the fruit slices so they looked juicy! This is a clean and fresh looking card, perfect for anyone's birthday! Thank you so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
