:gift: Prize Reveal! :gift:

Drum roll please… :drum:

Here’s the prize for this season’s craftalong, made by yours truly :blush:

A full page of Celebration-inspired ATCs spelling out the word “Celebrate.” I left the back of each card blank, so you can reuse the cards for whatever you wish.

Plus, lots of holiday-themed stickers, and some cute ephemera (not made by me):

These will go in the back of the sleeves, as shown here, so they can travel to the winner safely.

I may also add some extra surprise goodies, too, so be sure to post 3 projects and comment on 3 projects by others this season to become eligible :slight_smile:

Winner will be decided by pulling a name out of a hat, because I’m not high tech :joy:

March is a busy month for me! We have MAR10 day, Pi Day, St. Paddy’s Day, both of my kid’s birthdays and my daughter in law’s bday! That’s a lot of treats!
On Monday, MAR10, Mario Day, I decided to make some snacks for the office!
Piranha plants (strawberries and grapes)

Tomorrow is pi day! My 3 selections
Key lime in a Florida shaped pan (thanks, Sam’s club)


Peanut butter pie thanks to Amanda yoders recipe. If you’ve been to yoders in Sarasota you know this is the real deal

And last but not least, tomato pie. Needed something savory to offset the sweetness. My lil southern heart is abuzz with this one

@bethntim Welcome to the Everyday Holidays Craftalong!

Those Mario plants are awesome and look delicious!! And the cupcakes/eggs/stars are on point also.
I love that you shared the pictures of the cartoon/video game as well. You must be the office’s favourite person :heart:

And that’s so cool that you have a pan in the shape of the state!

I’ve never had peanut butter pie, but it sounds delicious!

The tomato pie looks delish, too. What else is in it?

Holidays Update :tada:

Better late than never! I’ve finally added the March holidays. I’ll add resources and ideas this week also. As we continue this craftalong over the years, I’ll refine how I post the holidays and will be adding more resources as well.

Do you have buttons hanging around that could be used for a craft? This week is the perfect time to do it!

Or you could interpreted it differently and make some buttons to wear!

Thanks for the kind words!
Tomato pie is a ritz cracker crust, sliced tomatoes, basil, then a mixture of mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and garlic, one more layer of tomatoes then more crushed ritz crackers. It was nice to have a savory option

Peanut butter pie was made from a recipe I saw on diners, drive ins, and dives from when they visited Yoders in Sarasota. It is so yummy and refreshing on a hot day, not nearly as heavy as a peanut butter pie sounds
