RIC#27 and some cookies

There are already so many gorgeous cards at the RIC#27......


 Here is my take on it - quickly, before Linky closes.




I used the Memory Box Bare Oak stamp for this card. The little blue leaves I found in my ancient Hero Arts Birds Branch alphabet set. I colored the leaves with my Marvy Markers, since I don't have such a vibrant blue ink pad. The sentiment is Papertrey (Mixed Messages)

Every once in a while I make those delicious breakfast cookies - they are pretty big and one of them is enough for breakfast, which I bring to work and have it with a cup of coffee. My hubby devours them for dessert after dinner - so they really do not last very long. 



And that's how you make them:

Breakfast Cookies

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour    
1 t baking soda
¼ t coarse salt
2 sticks butter – room temperature (I use about 2 T less)
1 ½ cups dark brown sugar
2 eggs
2 t vanilla
2 cups rolled oats
½ chopped almonds
¼ cup each: sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins,  cranberries,  dried blueberries, unsweetened coconut

Beat butter until light and fluffy, add sugar, beat again. Then add eggs, one at a time and vanilla. Add flours, baking soda and salt, beat until well combined.
Add nuts and dried fruit.
From dough into cookies – ½ cup dough makes about 10 - 11 cookies. 
they get a little larger while baking.
Bake at 350° for about 20 - 25 min. on parchment lined baking sheets.  Let cool completely on baking sheets.

ENJOY!

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
