Lucky Dog

 

Today I'm playing along with Color Hues Challenge #36: Green and Gold.

St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner :) Although I don't usually make or send cards for this particular holiday I do love celebrating it in other fun ways. This year I'm making treat bags filled with homemade dog treats and decorated with handstamped tags to deliver to the mailboxes of Pepper's mountainhood friends! I haven't made the treats yet, but here's a look at the tags I created:

I heat embossed the word "lucky" in gold and I love the little bit of shine it adds to the design :) I had such a great time making these (17 in total) and look forward to baking the treats, packaging them up and passing them out to our mountainhood pups!

I'll also be cooking up some corned beef and cabbage and baking some treats for my husband (Bailey's Irish Cream Chocolate Chip Cookies---a new to me recipe---hope they turn out yummy!). Do you have any special traditions or plans for St. Patrick's Day?

Thanks for visiting!

Have a fabulous week!!!
