Sweet as a Peach Treat Tag, Team fun & more

How about some swaps, team time and a fun treat tutorial? Today I thought I’d share what we’ve been doing as a my group recently. I’ve got a great team and we have a lot of fun together when we gather each month, so I thought I’d share some of the groups swaps first. I’ll start with some of the Sale-a-bration cards.

this first card uses the lovely Feels like Home stamp set (Sale-a-bration 156607) and has been colored with our Watercolor Pencils (141709 & 149014) assortments for a softer look. And this next card was created using the Delicate Dahlia stamp set (Sale-a-bration 156601) and Merry Merlot for a bold look.

If you don’t recognize the polka dots it’s from the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper pack (Sale-a-bration 156630) which as you can see is quite versatile. A bit of fussy cutting and some Wink of Stella finish off this lovely card. And how about this big bold sunflower?

This card uses the Celebrate Sunflowers (152517) and the coordinating Sunflower Dies (152704) and it’s also a fun buckle card, the sentiment tucks into a punched slot behind the sunflower.

Not only do we do team meetings each month, but we also had a team retreat in August, so I thought I’d share a couple of the swaps from that today. This first project uses the Friends are Like Seashells Bundle (159516) and Seashells 3D Embossing Folder (154309).

And how about some pansy fun using the Pansy Petals Suite (155810)? A simple cutting technique creates this criss-cross pattern for the card front.

We also made a fun little box that was filled with some treats.

I really love this Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (155807) and the fact you can cut tons of flowers out with the bundle’s dies and isn’t the little box adorable? Want to see more team fun? This month was our bi-annual Peak Princess event. What is that? It’s a special day filled with pampering that my team can earn. This time we made 3 special projects, won prizes and enjoyed a nice Hawaiian inspired luncheon together.

The pulled pork and Mango Salsa we had were a hit so I thought I’d share the recipes with you. The pulled pork is soooo easy with just 3 ingredients and you make in the crock pot too! And you may find the Mango Salsa addictive – eat it with chips, or you can add it on top of fish or shrimp taco too.

And as a little gift everyone received a charm for their lanyards that was placed in this cute Treat Tag marking this occasion.

Today I’ll be sharing some wonderful cards using the Feels Like Home Stamp set (156607). This stamp set is FREE when you place an order with $50 or more in product. This set contains some wonderful line art images that are wonderful all by themselves, making it so each to create quick and easy cards.

And of course the sentiments are lovely and use a wonderful font too. Today’s I’ll be sharing this fun fold with you using Evening Evergreen and Soft Suede.

I just love the way this card opens

and gives you a full panel to stamp on too.

This next card uses the Soft Suede and Evening Evergreen but also adds a bit of interest with the Stacked Stone Background (152556) and bit of Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (155426).

Our Double Oval Punch makes this sentiment quick and easy! This next card uses our Misty Moonlight and Crumb Cake Card stock along with our Very Vanilla for a softer feel.

The door has been colored to add some interest and the Bark 3D Embossing Folder (155431) adds a lot of texture to the background.

this next card uses the Sahara Sand, Pale Papaya and Calypso Coral for it’s color pallet. Once again interest has been added with our Embossing Folders, this time it’s the Brick & Mortar 3D (149643). I just love how our products work together making them a great value! And moving away from the neutrals and natural color pallet, check out this lovely card done in Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape.

the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch (152883) highlights the sentiment along with a piece of the beautiful Highland Heather 1/2″ Grosgrain Ribbon (155812) that has a beautiful shimmery feel. And for a final project today

The set has been done in Mint Macaron, Misty Moonlight, and Calypso Coral. The Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper (156494) add some interest in the background and the Champagne Rhinestones (151193) a pop of shine.
