hey guys! i just wanted to pop in with this month’s recap of the roost tribe, which gives you a sneak peek of what february has brought to the roost tribe. i also wanted to let you know that it’s not too late to get in on the goods! i’ll be sending out a newsletter recap on monday, march 4th with all of the content in it so no one will have missed anything, regardless of when you might have joined.

that means, that if you join before monday, march 4th you’ll still get all of this yummy content from february plus march’s content as well- that’s two months for the price of one!

this month, i shared a really fun tutorial on one of my favorite techniques in illustrator using the rotate and duplicate tools.

fun photo corners in several styles and colors plus 2 frames, perfect for both regular photos and instagram pictures!

several lovely printables including a coffee cup sleeve, coaster, notecard and chocolate wrapper. pssst.. this is perfect for mother’s day, too!

4 spring inspired patterns to use as wrapping paper or gift tags, backgrounds for photos or for all sorts of uses on your blog or website.

a sweet little desktop + iphone background to remind us to do all that we do in love. :)

one of my all time favorite southern recipes- veganized. sauteed apples and cabbage with apple sage ‘sausage’ and cornbread!

a truly inspirational article on how to stay connected with our friends by the lovely natalie borton.

and that’s not even all! tribe members also received a list of favorite links and resources and got exclusive discounts and deals in the awesome spring greens gift guide. being a member is tons of fun and we would love to have you join the family!
