Easter Card for Hubby - Bunnies, Bicycle & Drink - Simon 2021EasterCardKit

Made this Easter card for my hubby. For those that do not know I cannot ride a regular bicycle, never learned since I grew up near a highway and not a street (yes that is my story and I'm sticking to it & also I'm a pilot of single-engine planes, yes, I know a pilot that cannot balance a bicycle). Hubby & I ride a tandem bicycle and I also have an adult tricycle (bicycle with three wheels and a basket in back). When I got the 2021 Simon Easter Card Kit and my like for Starbucks drinks I knew that I needed to make an Easter card for hubby with me sitting on back of bicycle holding my drink.

Photographed with Sisal bunnies that are part of my Easter Bunny collection.

What's Happening Thurs 3/25 - Recycle/Use of Cup Holder & Cups - Prize Giveaway

Welcome to What's Happening Thursday. I'm Melissa, nickname "Sunshine HoneyBee", an independent Close To My Heart CTMH Consultant/Maker, and I want to share what's happening on Thursday.


Please check out my CTMH site and order wonderful items like what I use. Please let me know if you found this helpful. If you know of any corrections that need to be made please let me know.


 What's Happening Thurs 3/25:

 

1. Recycle/Use of Cup Holder & Cups

Had a Cup Holder that holds 4 cups from Starbucks and some extra unused cups (when ordering a Tea or Tea Latte the barista uses an extra cup to support the cup & tea bag(s). Got to thinking how to recycle/use the Cup Holder & extra cups. See in photo below what I did. I used the cups to hold items (i.e. tools, pens, markers, adhesive, etc.). In one holder spot I put my handy magnetic piece that I got as a freebie from Harbor Freight and I use all the time when cutting dies apart and to hold dies). The Cup Holder has a ridge also that you can prop up an item of your choice (in my case the After The Rain die set I ordered & rcvd from Kat Scrappiness that I'll be playing with today). 

Show me your recycle /use of any Cup Holder and or any Cups repurposed by emailing (email is on my blog sidebar) me a photo and I'll draw a name for a prize giveaway. Please email photo & comment on blog post also. Due date Wed 3/31 12 noon CT.
