A Treat for the Tastebuds and the Eyes!

Can you tell I have spring fever? Today, I’m working with another green-centric color combination of Key Lime, Olive, Heavenly Blue and Crème Brulee. In addition to some great cards, I’m also sharing some sweet treats, Close To My Heart style.

I know that Consultants and customers alike love saving the craft tubes that our ribbons or Just Blooms come in and repurposing the tubes for other projects. And if you ask me, they’re the perfect complement for apple rings, mints, and other colorful treats. Add a little ribbon and a stamped lid, and you have a really fun “Treat Tower” great for a favor, a teacher gift, or a thoughtful thank you. And while you’re in the kitchen, why not dress up a batch of cupcakes with adorable toppers or make a handful of chocolate coins glitter with possibilities. It’s the stamper’s pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!

Green with Envy!

Hooray for March and the green it promises, from the green shamrocks of St. Patrick’s Day to the optimistic buds working their way through the dirt of my garden. Today, I’m celebrating all things green wit h a monochromatic color combination featuring Ponderosa Pine, Sweet Leaf, Topiary, and a touch of Colonial White as a base.

My cards today really express my joy for spring—and my love of that “So Lucky” stamp set, C1390, I’ve been raving about. For my artwork today, I’ve also incorporated the “Embrace Life” set, C1391. They’re two spring favorites that are easy to use for just about anything!

Also, to kick off a new month, I’m continuing my tradition of sharing a calendar page you can create at home and use all month long (and then scrapbook, of course). This one uses the “Title Topper: Pieced Together” pattern from Reflections (on page 16), along with the new “In the Month of March” stamp set, C1404. It already has me looking forward to a vibrant, verdant month of many possibilities. May your March be lucky, lovely, and full of green—and don’t forget to share your artwork using this color combo by including links to your art in comments. We’ll all be green with envy!
