I stand by my motto.
Food is art
Genius right? Thanks to Maureen for the absolutely brilliant idea to use a stalk of celery as a stamp. I upped the cheese factor by using this freshly veggie-stamped notecard to write P a love letter for our anniversary. Gah! Who am I? Though it was worth it to see his face =)
Obviously I soon tired of celery and glanced around the room for something else to paint. I spotted C-Dawg. Poor little guy... you would have thought he'd been through enough by now. But no! I not only threw him in some salsa to munch on, but also plucked a few leaves to paint.
I don't think I'll ever stop playing with my food =)

You're so right. Food is art! I love it, I'm not that creative ;)
This is all kinds of great!!!!
The best ideas come from playing with your food!
Hahaha. You are so stinking cute, Jenn!!
Cute idea;)
That's awesome! So beautiful and creative. I totally love you :-)
I think I like celery better as art than food. :-D
PLEASE don't stop playin with your food, you're art is soo cool! I never would've thought celery would make such a pretty stamp, love it! :)
I'd never stop playing with my food either if I played with it like this. Love it! My version of playing with my food involves swirling it around my plate, tossing peas at people, and making mountains and valleys out of mashed potatoes ;)
I hope you never ever stop playing with your food!!! You're too cute :)
Love it and I bet the kids will too!
I marvel at your greatness, sometimes. I have no idea how you are so talented when it comes to all things food. You're amazing.

These are adorable! Yet another use for herbs!
I LOVE my celery flowers! I have put their photos on my blog before... when I was making this afternoon's juice, I left the celery flower on the counter (to take a photo!) and Jason was helping clean the juicer parts, saw it and threw it in the garbage! :D I can take a photo of another one tomorrow...
so clever!!
Oh my gosh!! I would have never even thought that. What a great idea. I love how the celery one turned out. :)

That is super cute! You are way more creative than I will ever be! I think if I told my husband I made his card with celery he'd think I was nuts.
Your celery art is to cute! If I can ever tear myself away from eating celery, I'll do this... I suppose I could just cut off the painted ends though!
Ahhh I love it! Such a cute idea <3
celery stamp=genius!!!!! i love it!!! PS: super stoked to link up this week for WIAW :)
Ahahaha... you really do take playing with your food to a whole new level. That's pretty cute. :p
woow i love it, so creative :D
so cute! i did this with my preschoolers when i taught a few years ago and they loved it! we used all sorts of vegetables. and i loved it to!
Wow, I'm amazed at what a cute stamp that makes!
What a great idea! I could totally see using food as art stamps for cloth napkins and place cards for a dinner party in your new casa :)
I've seen the celery art on Pinterest and am fascinated by it (previously I've only stamped with apple).
The cards look very cool.
Keep us posted if you paint with more :)
I don't think your images are cheesy, I think they're beautiful, free and creative!
I personally would love a celery card :D

So awesome! I just thought of the apple stamps this morning when I was writing my post. You know, when you cut them in 1/2 and it makes a star? So pretty when you add paint to it!
Food is 100 percent art and girl....celery has never looked so good! You are fabulous.
Love the food art!! I need some of your craftiness. My kids would love to do this!!
Ah this is such a cute idea!! I feel like I love the celery one so much that I would hang it up in my house!
that is so cute, I love the celery stamp. I will have to do that with my little nephews some day :)
Playing with food is so fun!!!
Woah, that is AWESOME! Such a fun idea :)
Weird--> I can write comments from my laptop, but not from my computer or phone...
I love playing with my food! Never gets old!!
LOVE the 'Celery Heart Stamp'
Comment success!! :)
Such a cute idea! My future children will definitely be playing with their food ... not at meal time of course :)
you are too cute. i bet he loved it :)
I think we have to find/make art out of our everyday lives to fully enjoy it! For me, it's about finding the beauty in things that helps me to make it through the day/week - or at least makes it more enjoyable!
OMG! That is soooo sooo cool! That design would make a great foodie blogger tshirt!
you are amazing! <3

Awww, when we were learning about plants, I had my kindergarteners paint/stamp with celery and other chopped veggies. It was super fun and the kids loved it!!
GOOD ONE!
Thanks for sharing my idea! You got so many great comments!!! I actually have a few ideas similar to this one, me and the kids will have to do a part 2 sometime! : )
You should never stop playing with your food. Your cards look delicious! Thanks for sharing!
How cute! I just had a great idea! White canvas type pillows...fabric paint...celery stalks...yesssssss, this is happening!
I just made a painting like this and now just found your blog!! crazy!! I posted it a couple of hours ago and then went blog surfing...nice to find you :)
You have to admire the design qualities of food - don't you? Happy stamping/printing. :)
Right? Thank you! If I had some apples handy I probably would have to eat
one and paint the other ;) Have a fabulous weekend!
