Hi Lemonheads! How was your weekend? I hope it was great. Purple Lemon Hubby took me out to take pictures on Pickwick Lake in the top corner of Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee last weekend.

My Purple Lemon momma wanted me to design some note cards and calling/enclosure cards for her. My whole family loves outdoors, gardening, etc, so she wanted to reflect her love for these things in her design. I thought I would make a very simple design using fern fronds in cool colors. What do you think? [...]

I love, love, love this color palette! I think it totally beautiful. It is called Fresh Light by smartalec. It feels very new to me…very fresh (for lack of a more original description).
