Gift Giving

Hello and welcome! We are giving gifts at the Sisters in Stamping blog... here is my gift for today's post--



I took the canister above and covered it with Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper (#161958, $12.50). Tied a bow around it with some White Iridescent Ribbon (#161955, $9.00), 


and made a tag using set Christmas Classics (#161970, $21.00). 


 Note in the picture above, I used the red Iridescent Discs (#161954, $7.00) to fill in for the holly berries. Yes, I did fill it with Peanut Blossoms they are a Christmas Cookie tradition! Here is the recipe so you can make some for yourself!

Peanut Blossoms
1 3/4c. flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1c. sugar
1c. brown sugar
1/2c. butter
1/2c. peanut butter
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
Chocolate Kisses, unwrapped
extra sugar to roll cookies in
    Sift together flour, soda and salt. Add sugar and brown sugar, mix well and set aside. In mixing bowl cream together butter and peanut butter. Add egg, vanilla blend well. Add dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Shape into 1" balls and roll in sugar. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8min. Remove from oven and place a chocolate kiss in the middle of each cookie. Return to oven and bake additional 2-5 min longer until edges crackle. 

Thank-you for stopping by today!
Happy Stamping, Karla 😀
