Anything Spring with Donna K

 Happy Friday, friends!
Donna K here with you today to share something
that goes along with our
ANYTHING SPRING
challenge this month.
Most everyone I know is READY for spring these days. I know I surely am.
Back in my craft show days I would hoard  buy up
tons of these tin buckets and items to use for altered gifts.
I thought it was time I actually started using them so I dressed up
this little bucket with some F A B U L O U S
Lemon-Lime crinkle ribbon from the new LG bundle.
New LG Bundle 3 Girl JAM
I added a strip of scor tape around the top and bottom
of my bucket and faux pleated the ribbon, topped it off with a shimmery white
ribbon from my scrap stash. I doubled tied my pretty bow and added the sweet tag.
All that's left is the candy!
Another little treat for you today is a discount code that you can 
apply toward your purchase at 3 Girl JAM
Pop in the code DB10 for 10% off when you check out. 
Pretty generous, eh?!  I know…right! Thanks, Julie.
I hope it feels like spring where you are!
Below is the link for the current challenge.
I hope you'll join us.

Fabulous Day to Celebrate!


HAPPY MONDAY FRIENDS!


I have a short but sweet post for you today!

For my Designer Day with 3 Girl JAM, I created a bright and cheery card to follow the theme for the current 3 Girl JAM 3GJ Challenge Blog.

The theme is All Things Spring with Ribbon.

I used the Mistletoe Green Crinkle Ribbon to give a feel of soft spring grass along the bottom of my card.  I love pleating this ribbon for many different effects.  I love the grass look it gives here.
