For Inspiration Challenge, to choose packaging from Lovely Packages to be inspired by! I chose the Archer Farms Penne Rigate box seen here (scroll down):
Instead of turning lemons into lemonade, I turned penne into lemon pasta?! And I think PINEAPPLES mean welcome, but since everything was all mixed up with this already, and I saw that black scrap sitting there with "Welcome" on it, I thought, it would suit this card just fine!

Avon Lady, that sure is a heck of a story above. Lemon Pasta....hmmmm, sounds rather intriguing, dont you think? Love your cut out and that sponging on top is to die for, girl. Bringing in that colored ribbon was sheer genius. I happen to think your card is fabulous, darling. Come back later and see all the comments I know this will get. I'm not the only one with good taste!
