New Stampin' Up! Products, A Challenge & Lemon-Raspberry Coffee Cake

Thanks for stopping by! I created this card using some new designer paper and stamps from Stampin' Up! I rounded corners all the corners to fit in with a challenge over at Scrapbook & Cards Today's Blog. I love the soft look the rounded corners give. It goes great with flowers! I'm in love with these bright, summery colors too - Rich Razzleberry, Lucky Limeade and Tangerine Tango. It sounds like a great combination for a smoothie if you ask me! ;)
I'm not sure why this photo turned sideways - it was straight when I edited it!

Also, I made this Lemon-Raspberry coffee cake and I just wanted ya'll to know, it is delicious!! So, make it for Mother's Day or your next brunch and everyone will LOVE it. The only thing I changed was I added about 1 tsp of lemon zest and 1 Tbs of lemon juice to the cake batter. (Since it had no lemon flavor besides in the cream cheese) It had just the right amount of lemon flavor - not too much!  The cream cheese made it so moist. I think I will add a few more raspberries next time too. It's an impressive coffee cake!!
