March Calendar

Here's the calendar page we did for March.  I didn't have any paper that really screamed "St. Patrick's Day," so I customized the page with stamps. (Sorry - doesn't look as great in the photo.  Too much white.  It's really cute in person though!)




Supplies Used:
Pear and Topiary Cardstock
Inks: Topiary and Pear
Z1030 Monthly Calendar
D1386 Save the Date
C1390 So Lucky
D1270 March Word Puzzle (retired)
E1002 Rustic Alphabet (retired)

You can purchase any of the current Close To My Heart products here.

March Word Puzzle - Day 3

Fun, Fun, Fun!!! I am having so much fun with this March Word Puzzle that I'm thinking about tagging a few fellow CTMH bloggers. If I don't tag you and you want to join in, just leave me a comment with a link to your blog. I'd love to check out what you make.

Ok, so on to today's creations.

I used Clover Meadow ink, cardstock, texture paper and yes... sassy strands.
The white accents were made using my White Daisy marker. I forgot how much I love that marker!

Ooops, I think this is a case of which came first! The tag actually inspired the card. This is my "lucky" give away for my crop this month. I won a set of our new texture tools at the Las Vegas Regionals, so I'm passing them on to one lucky workshop attendee this month. Of course I probably won't make them go on stage and pretend they have absolutely no idea how to use them....which is how I won (hmmm earned) them.

And in keeping with the "Green" theme of this post... I re-used one of my lovely lean cuisine containers as the basket bottom.

March Word Puzzle - Day Two

Here's another fun creation using the March Word Puzzle....well one stamp.... This card was inspired by a design we did at my uplines house yesterday. I came home and just had to make a few more cards. The "Easter" stamp is from the March Word Puzzle. I used the rustic alphabet to spell happy and the paper is from the Sweet Pea paper pack. Colors are Key Lime and Amethyst.

Below is my version of a foam core stamp holder that I saw on Splitcoast Stampers. I couldn't quite figure out the need for a couple of the pieces that the original poster included in her design so I switched it up and changed it. It's probably one of those things that if you saw it in person, you would understand. I added a shelf so that I don't have to stack all twelve on top of each other.

Now that I have a spot to put them all, I'll have to finish switching over from the old style pads, to the new style....

Happy March - Peep Style

Think Spring.... Since it's already beginning to feel like spring in my neck of the woods, I thought I'd celebrate by playing with the March Word Puzzle. I've created several projects and I even took pictures already... so stay tuned... I'll keep posting cute samples all week long.
First Up... Having Fun with my Peeps....



I had so much fun making these cute treats last night. Today was our last game for church volleyball and I wanted to bring a little goodie to thank the girls that come. 9am on Saturday morning is pretty hard when Saturday is the only day you get to sleep in. (Most of the girls on the team go to seminary so their school day starts at 6am).

I think I drove my poor son crazy as I went through the possible sayings, before I finally settled on "Volleyball is S'more fun with your peeps." The bags contain graham crackers, a bunny peep and chocolate. Some had chocolate kisses in the front and some had the miniature candy bars behind the graham crackers. In our house we like to put the peep in the microwave to create our s'more.... the bunny grows and grows..... But, if you don't want to watch your bunny expand in the microwave, you can always pull out your heat tool and roast him....

Supplies - All papers, inks and stamps are Close To My Heart.
Amethyst and Sunkiss Paper
Key Lime, Amethyst and Baby Pink ink
The font is CTMH Uptown from the first font cd

Go ahead..... go make some with your peeps....
