Hello! Here is the next addition to the May release, fresh from the studio. This release is taking its sweet time for some reason. Apart from all that has gone on in Boston recently to distract, I feel generally scattered. I am sure it has something to do with pregnancy, but I have really intense moments of inspiration, clarity and focus, that are heartily offset with an inability to focus on much of anything and a slight feeling of detachment. It's strange. So, I am trying to go with the flow, and really capitalize on the moments when the energy is there and let myself drift a little in the rest of that space.
This one is a little cheeky, but it is meant to speak lightly to the idea that what we need, we will get. The concept of abundance and non-scarcity is big for me in this year of “plenty” and I tried to distill that concept into its simplest form. Lemonade from lemons. Cake from the rest.
It is also about making delicious things out of the most basic ingredients. There is art in there.
Hope you enjoy it…love to hear your thoughts!

Yummy! And on a rare sunny spring day in the Northwest, it’s perfectly light and fresh! I love the idea that we are given what we need in life, and it’s up to us to make something of it. It also makes me want to make my favorite luscious lemon cupcakes with lemon buttercream frosting.
Cute, cute card! Good timing, too! I can think of all kinds of reasons to send this card, but right now I’m realizing it’s actually a great graduation card. I’m thinking about two amazing girls who are just about to enter their exciting college years. They each have all the ingredients for a terrific start. Thanks for another PERFECT card, Leigh!
I love it! That would be great o a tea towel. (I’d actually like it on a t-shirt.)
This is a beautiful and simple thought and you’ve captured it in such an appealing way. I’m a big fan of your wit and work!
You are so clever with words! Love it!
I want this card now! I want it for my kitchen wall, and to give to three people who would understand it and be encouraged by it.
I love it! Hoping you offer it as a round cutting board!
Hi Leigh- When is this going to be available- it’s the final piece for my kitchen!?
