I was invited to participate in a cookie exchange today. I must say it's been 10-15 years since I've done one. Back in those days I stitched...no cards/stamping card for me! You know I've been doing recipes cards all year (and yes I know I'm behind but I'm catching up (stay tuned)). So it's seemed natural, even mandatory to give the cookie recipes the "treatment".
This is a new recipe for me - Pistachio-Cranberry Biscotti - taken from last year's Betty Crocker's Christmas Cookie book (you know--the ones at the grocery check-out that look so darn good!)
It doesn't have a lot of ingredients but it does have a lot of steps. So, it didn't fit on the standard card. I solved that problem with a flip page. The paper and image is all Stampin' Up.
You remember my Tim tag from day #2. You might have wondered why I made a BUNCH of them. It's simple...they were the fronts to a recipe. People always ask me what I do with my tags. I generally just stand them in a box to look at now and then. This seems like a better use!
Here's the back - my Grandmother's Ginger Snap recipe. I have to say it's my favorite Christmas cookie.
