What's Cookin' Challenge......

The challenge at Flourishes is to share a favorite recipe in a stamped creation.  That's easy - Key Lime Pie!  It's easy to make, and so refreshing!  Add a dollop of whipped cream and everyone is in heaven!  Here's my card:


I wrote my recipe out, using an alphabet set to title it, then stamped some limes using distress inks and attached the recipe to the lime ribbon with those adorable tiny clothespins.  Just about as fast and easy as the pie itself! 

Supplies: My Time Made Easy "A Spot of Tea" set (limes), Hero Arts CG113 Write Your Own ("recipe" card), CL137 Small Variety Alphabet, CL153 Cupcakes ("yum!" and "delicious"), CH114 Little Clothes Pins, white cardstock, Dollar Tree lime printed paper, peeled paint and shabby distress inks, Versafine onyx black ink
