I needed to make a fun combination birthday/Christmas gift for two of my BFFs and found some wonderfully aromatic rosemary bushes at my local grocery store. So I decided to give them both a rosemary bush, with a little recipe holder and some recipes featuring fresh rosemary.
I was visiting Vicki over at Wizard's Hangout and she linked this amazing project idea and tutorial over at Stampin Inspirations! It's made of just cardstock and patterned paper (plus a piece of sticky-backed velcro to hold it closed! Super easy and super cute. I also like the flower embellishment that Vicki linked to as well, at Wendy Smedley's Blog. This combination was perfect for the recipe card holder!
I used some paper from My Mind's Eye and matted it with green/blue cardstock. I used my Cricut to cut the 2" circles for the flower embellishment (George cartridge). Then I just tied some coordinating ribbon on the handle and inserted the recipe cards.
P.S. They loved them! :)
Thanks for looking!!!

very cute idea!
I was SO SUPER IN LOVE WITH THESE!!!!!! You have NO IDEA!! Also, I tried to comment on the card you made using the Felicity papers but couldn't for some reason. Therefore, I will do it here! HAHA! That is my FAVORITE card so far!! L-O-V-E. In fact, I love it so much, I will probably scraplift portions of it for one of my altered canvases. I say portions b/c you know I cannot match your mad skills!!
