Creative Stamping & Scrapbooking By Kim

Cookie Swap Scrapbook Page...Two Versions!

I recently participated in my first ever "Cookie Swap" with my stamping friends in Colorado!

Thanks to my friend, Sherry who made my cookie recipe so everyone at the swap would not only have my scrapbook recipe page, but they also were able to taste the cookies! 
WOO HOO!

I created two versions of the scrapbook page because honestly, I was pressed for time, since I had to allow for extra days for mailing...So, the second version pictured here is what I created for the swap and the first photo shows the version I created when I had more time.

What a great way to get a ton of delicious cookie recipes!

TIP:  I printed the cookie recipe on postcards that are 4 to a sheet made to run through a printer...This really saved time because the postcards are perforated, so just print and add to scrap page, embellish as desired and it's done!
