Avery Elle April Release Blog Hop

First, thank you for everyone's sweet comments yesterday!  Taking on the role of a Paper Crafts Magazine Go-to Gal is an absolute dream come true!  In case you missed the announcement, you can find it here.  For a chance to win Avery Elle's Petals & Stems, leave a comment here!

Now, let's get to the hop!

For the hop, I got to play with Bonjour.   

How cute are those macaroons?   When I saw this set, I knew immediately that I wanted to create a nice little treat bag to deliver some tasty macaroons!
To create this treat bag, I die cut the macaroons using the new dies *YAY!* from Pixie cardstock and stamped on them in pink and black.  
That grosgrain ribbon is the Raspberry color from Avery Elle.  I love this ribbon!

I don't typically post a ton of non-card projects on my blog but I create a ton of them.  I love to create favors and gift wraps and treat holders.  I'll try to do better at posting more non-card projects around here! :)

Now get hoppin'!!!

Those are macaroons? Really? I thought they were elegant little whoopie pies that I have seen on Pintrest lately? Either way, I love how you use them in your pretty creation. Happy Easter!
