More Herbs, Less Salt Day - CCEE1634

Today is More Herbs, Less Salt Day!! Herbs and plants add so much to our lives, so in honor of this unusual day, our hostess, Liz, has asked the CCEE Stampers to make a card with an herb or plant on it. Many of you love gardening, so any of these images would work great. You might even want to add colors that are named after herbs and plants: sage, thyme, lavender, cinnamon, nutmeg, mint, celery, olive, or cocoa, as well as all those you can think of. Have fun with it.

This is the closest thing I have which looks a little like flowering chives. I think the sentiment helps it fit today's celebration of herbs!
