Layout: What I’m Loving Now

This layout came from a challenge to use a grid when editing photos. I created this while taking the BPC Art+Science class and this was one of the Left brain challenges.
For me, using a grid was a perfect way to capture some of the details of life right now that wouldn't necessarily require a full layout.

Layout: My Girl (Throwback Thursday!)

This is one of my new favorite layouts. I hand cut these mason jars over the course of an evening. Cutting paper is therapeutic for me! 
I used this print of Amelia that was taken last summer (Photo by Pixels on Paper) journaled on several of the mason jars.

Wildtree Wednesday: Lemon Rosemary Green Beans

We had a pot luck at church on Sunday and I concocted this green bean dish to take. It was simple, quick, and tasty. I was pleased to see so many of the children of the church taking big scoops my green beans- they didn't last long at all and we very yummy! 
Take 1 pound of green beans, wash and cut the ends off and place them in a microwave safe dish.
Add 1 Tbsp of butter (cut up) and 1tsp of Wildtree's Lemon Rosemary blend. When you are ready to cook- add 1 cup of water, cover, and microwave for 6-7 minutes. Drain the excess water and serve!!
You can toss the beans with extra seasoning/Grapeseed oil if you want after draining then, but it is not needed.

Layout: Now is the Time

This layout was inspired by one of my young Scrapper pals, Stacy. She challenged us to create a layout about our health. This layout is a manifesto of sorts, claiming the time to become more healthy is now!

Wildtree Wednesday: Lemon Rosemary Roasted Fennel

I love farm share days!!! This week was a real winning box: leeks, fennel, zephyr squash, zuchini, carrots, and lettuce. I love getting a box of fresh, organic produce each week and trying new things! 

Preheat the oven to 375. 
Drizzle with Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil
Sprinkle with Lemon Rosemary Blend 
Add a bit of lemon juice to your taste and toss. 
Roast for ten minutes, toss, and return to the oven for another 15 minutes. 
This was so great it didn't make it to the table! I ate it all straight from the pan!!!
