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!

ReplyDeleteJeanette, thank you for adding a smile to my day! What cute ideas! With all the turmoil in our lives right now- such as a nephew who is a Marine in Afghanisan, it is so nice to have something fun to look at and think about! Thanks again.
So cute! So clever! So you! Now I have to do something to tell the people in my life, how lucky I am to have them. Thanks for the never ending inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI love Close To My Heart and I love the color me monday card that Jeanette has posted on her website. You can bet we will be making one in card class this month! Just click on the link above to see. Card class is March 24th. Contact me for further details.

ReplyDeleteJeanette thank you so much for your awesome ideas! Without you and your layout books my pictures would be sad and lonely waiting to be scrapbooked! I've been able to do so much more this way! Those treats are adorable, I'll have to use them, and I'll have to buy more ribbons and flowers so I can use more!! Ok, time to stop sloppering over you!
Might we see some type of tube in an upcoming Idea Book for us to decorate. Then I could quit hoarding - I mean saving for good - the ones I have!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute and thank you,
Mary
Key Lime and Olive, huh. This is going to be a bit of a challenge for me as I am not a huge green lover......but I love all of these colors together. SOOOO, off to my "play" space to see what I can come up with! I am thinking Olive and Key Lime accents.....lol
ReplyDeleteThanks for the color inspiration and challenge! Hope your week is a good one!!
This is such an Awesome idea!! I love recycling items and coming up with neat things to do with them...I will be doing this for sure!!! Thanks for sharing!

Just wanted to stop in and say that my prize from your blog giveaway last week arrived today! Can't thank you enough, it really brightened my day!
ReplyDeleteSuch cute projects! I admit I was quite skeptical at first of putting Olive and Key Lime together. I never would've put those two colors of green together. Of course, they ended up looking fabulous together! I made a card and it's on my blog. www.missioninkpossible.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLove it, love it, love it. Your artwork is amazing! Thanks for sharing!
