Yep, we loooove green here at Scarlet LIME. And we hope that you all have a great day celebrating all things green! And speaking of green......Remember that this month we are hosting a Go Green Challenge: create a layout or project using recycled scrapbook packaging! You can find all the details in this post HERE...this is YOUR chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Scarlet Lime Mixed Media Shop. Christy is adding new things weekly such as Jumbo Roller Wheel Stamps, new Studio Calico Mr. Huey's and adorable chipboard tags and 7 Gypsies product galore!!! But grab them while you can because they are flying out the door.
Need a little inspiration on how to re-use and re-purpose all the amazing scrapbook packaging that you have laying about? Here is a layout that I created using this month's March Main Kit "Fresh Picked".
I used the left over packaging from the Jillibean Soup Corrugated Chipboard Alphabets as the background for my layout. I painted it with Liquitex Cadmium Light Yellow Ink and highlighted it with some Shimmerz paints:
The cute floral chipboard background that is acting as a photo frame is actually the left over packaging from the Jillibean Soup Chipboard Butterflies! I popped off the plastic dome that held the chipboard shapes and then stamped on the plastic with this month's included Glitz floral stamp:
So there are 3 examples on one layout on how to utilize all the amazing packaging that is coming to your door each month in your kit. So if you get a hankering today to "Go Green", try a few of these techniques yourself and come share them on this challenge post HERE....or else we might have to come pinch ya ;)
You are clever! That layout rocks!

Very creative! Thanks for the ideas. I also do not have children in school and needed some inspiration here.
