Art with Heart Challenge March “Go Green”

4 Mar

Hey everyone! It’s hard to believe that March is here and spring is right around the corner. This month our Art with Heart Challenge is “Go Green”. Whether you want to interpret that theme with a St. Patrick’s day project, an upcycled creation or simply add a little greenery to your makes is completely up to you. We can’t wait to see what you create for the Go Green challenge. As always there is a fun Sizzix die up for grabs from my From the Heart Collection…the mini shopping bag! Let’s Go Green and see what the Inspiration Team has in store for you this week…

Tracy Evans is bringing us a lil’ Luck O’ the Irish with this gorgeous green Good Luck Travel Journal. Stitching, inking and tons of creative techniques can be found on this fabulous creation using my soon to be released Travel Journal die from Vintage Travel!

Try your luck over at Tracy’s blog where you will learn lots of mixed-media tricks to “Go Green” with your projects.

Nicole Wright will be the wind beneath your creative wings with this clever cookie box Windmill creation! Every detail on this project will literally “blow” you away from the feathers down to the textured embossing!

Harness some creative wind power for your next project by visiting Nicole’s blog for more gorgeous details on her amazing Cookie Box Windmill.

Rina Gonzalez is sharing a lovely and quick greeting card project featuring Stampendous Stamps and my Ribbon Die! Rina created this project almost entirely from wayward craft room scraps, talk about going green!

Stop by Rina’s blog to learn how to create these Lovely and Quick Greeting Cards with YOUR craft room scraps.

How’s that for some Go Green Inspiration? You have until March 30th to link up your Go Green creations below! I’ll be back later this week with last months winner and top 3.
