When you think of summer, who doesn't think about kicking back and relaxing with a glass of fresh squeezed lemonade! Well, being that Flourishes is located in the heart of citrus country, we know that this is a part of summer we relish! We knew when we put our artist Marcella Hawley to work on a summer fruit set that this one would have people puckering up with joy!
Introducing....
This set is full of fun with a number of lemon images that are sure to please gardeners, cooks and those that just see lemons as a slice of summer! Our designers have been busy at work squeezing out some of their creative juices! So, be sure to stop by and see what they whipped up using this tasty set!

And thanks to for offering a free set as blog candy. Hmmm...got my fingers crossed.....
