Flurry of Wishes

Do you love snowflakes? I guess it’s my Wisconsin roots, but for some reason I can never have too many snowflake sets, so of course Flurry of wishes is on my stamp set shelf. LOL!

This first card combines two of my favorite things coffee and snowflakes – so how can you not love this card done in traditional colors. Check out those cute little deer from the Be Merry Designer Series Paper.

It teams up the Merry Cafe Stamp Set (144965) and Coffee Cup Framelits Dies (143745) with the Flurry of Wishes Stamp Set (139732).

And here the snowflakes are done in shades of blue with a touch of silver.

This next card is done with Rich Razzleberry and Smoky Slate. And can you see the texture created with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder behind the snow flakes?

This final card includes some embossing for some pizzazz.

Wow what did I tell you? Love snowflakes too? Why not leave me a comment today and tell me which card is your favorite and why?

Merry Cafe Spiced Chai

I really love the Merry Cafe stamp set and the fact that it coordinates with both the Coffee Cups Framelits Dies AND the Coffee Cafe stamp set – After all who wouldn’t love more coffee or tea items?

Here is a cute little gift that I made for my peeps as a gift recently.

I had these cute little jars that I found a while back just laying around and they were perfect for this project!

Each jar help 2 cups of Spiced Chai Mix that I whipped up quickly – and can you say yummy?

I used the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper to decorate this little jars. Isn’t it great that this pack is part of our Buy 3 Get 1 FREE Designer Series Paper Promotion  this month?

Not only was I able to decorate the tag which held the recipe on the back to mix up your cup, but I punched a circle of coordinating Designer Series Paper for the lid – cute!

And since the mix it self looks like Crumb Cake it was even color coordinated. (I can hear my daughter’s groan and see her eyes rolling at that comment. Do you think in Stampin’ Up! colors when your out shopping or doing things too?)

Want the recipe for this quick and easy mix? I’ll warn you it is yummy you won’t want to just have one cup. LOL!

Spiced Chai Mix

Taste of Home

 

3 c. nonfat dry milk powder

1 1/2 c. sugar

1 c. unsweetened instant tea

3/4 c. vanilla powdered nondairy creamer

1 1/2 tsp. ground ginger

1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp. ground cardamom

1/2 tsp. ground cloves

 

In a food processor, combine all dry ingredients; cover and process until powdery. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 6 months.

 

To prepare 1 serving; Dissolve 3 tablespoons of mix into 3/4 cup (6 oz.) of boiling water; stir well. Add a dollop of whipping cream if desired.

 

Yield: about 5 cups mix (26 servings)

Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the back of the tag for you, but here is a pdf so you can print some off too. I’ve spaced it for the shorter coffee cup. So simply print it off onto your card stock, run it through the Big Shot and you’ve got yourself a tag.
