Merry Minis

I'm lovin' all the Punch and Stamp set's that coordinate....These are the Merry Minis (#127916-wood $14.95, #127919-clear $11.95, pg. 6 Holiday Catalog) and the Merry Minis Punch Pack (#126882 $16.95)  Just got mine in the mail...so haven't had time to play, but will post pics as soon as I do.  You can order these direct HERE.  Or contact me by phone or e-mail. 

This is the last set that we got at Convention...sorry...ya have to be a demo to get it...it's a great business builder.  They gave it to us for attending ALL of our classes.  Can't wait to make up some goodies for my downline using it!!! 

Here's a few of the projects that I showed with the gift card M&T that we did this month at Stamper's 10.  The Just For You one was my hostess gift this month...held a little gift certificate, and I love the Graduation cap!!! 

 

My friend Abby, made this recipe a while back for a meeting, and she was generous enough to give me the recipe.  I was having a hard time finding the Custard Powder, until a few weeks ago, and finally World Market had it.   It is soooo...yummy!!!
