Printable sunshine in a bottle

Today I am grateful for…. MY GIRLFRIENDS!!!!  Over the last 3 weeks I have been down with health issues and my girlfriends swooped in until my mom could come to town to help me recover and keep my household functioning.  What would I do without my BFF’s… honest to goodness, these women know exactly how to bring sunshine to my world and so I wanted to give them a bottle of Sunshine to help brighten their day like they did mine!

I created a collection of sunny & bright printables that include:
1. Large Lemon Silhouette: “When life gives you lemons, you make Lemoncello”
2. Small Lemon silhouette: “Lemon Honey”
3. Tea Bag:  “Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea”
4. Sun: “Hello Sunshine, You make me happy when skies are gray”
5. Lemonade wrap
6. Message Tag: “Yello?” Thanks for the sweet messages
7. Bottle tag: “A bottle of Sunshine to brighten your day as you always brighten mine”
