Whimsy by Victoria: Cards

I know my Whimsy Spotlight has been a little delayed this week. So much going on with kids back to school and trying to find the time to work on the things I would like to. So please forgive the delay, we will now have our regularly scheduled program...

As the saying goes, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Well I definitely feel I have been given my share of lemons in the last couple of days. So... taking these lemons and am doing just that!

I am even going to share my very delicious Strawberry Lemonade recipe with you! You might just think it is the best you've ever tasted ( just my personal opinion.) It is a recipe I have been making for friends and family for the last 18 years. No matter the occasion, it is always right. Here is my secret recipe...shhh...O.K. I guess it won't be secret anymore...just enjoy! :)

Can't wait to hear if you liked it. What do you think of my fun and cute frame around this yummy recipe? Well...I thought it would make the recipe extra special by adding a very whimsy frame. I bet you want a cute frame like this too. The"Whimsy Spotlight" this week is all about these whimsical frames, and many beautiful designs from creative blog couture, unique jeweled wall art, fun fonts to unique digital scrapbooking kits. Still there is more to see. The House of 3 has it all!

I am going to tell you though...be prepared to fall.in.love! The first time I layed eyes on these whimsical designs I was smitten! ♥♥♥ This unique business is all about Inspiring, Creating and falling in Love with design. In fact, this is their motto...Inspire. Create. Love. Simply said and true!

However, there is nothing simple about these many wonderful,and intricate details in every design.
