Twilight Tuesday #49………

Well it is Erica’s turn to pick our theme.  And this is what she picked: "Home is where the Heart is." Great theme right?  Loving it!

This is what she had to say:

Several homes are mentioned in the series, Bella's mom's home in Phoenix, Charlie's place, The Cullen's residence, the bright and open house on Isle Esme, Jacob's tiny home and finally the cottage. No matter how big or small the thing that these places shared was a lot of love. What makes home home? Draw inspiration from one of the places in the book or your own version of home for a project.

 

And this is what I came up with:

I Am Keeping With My Promises……

Bet I had a few of you worried huh?

Well this is another card I made with my Club Scrap Henna kit.

If you want to watch the Club Scrap video and get the full details.  Go here!

 

Rhino Grip…..carpet tape.  Man what will they think of next to use for crafting huh?IMG_9135IMG_9136

This is actually called the herringbone technique.  You cut your paper into strips and then stick them onto the carpet tape you already have in place on your card base!  It is like paper quilting really!  I hope you try it.  It is lots of fun!IMG_9149IMG_9152 IMG_9150 IMG_9151

Red Hot Sugar Cookies………

I found these in my Better Homes and Gardens magazine.
They are super yummy.  Especially right out of the oven.  The red hots are a little mushy.  {They harden back up once they cool.}

IMG_0054 This is before I baked them.
IMG_0055After….

2 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
Large bag of Red Hots {I found mine at the dollar store}

Heat oven to 375.  In small bowl sift together flour, baking soda, and baking powder: set aside.
In large mixing bowl beat butter with electric mixer on medium to high speed 30 seconds.  Add sugar: beat until combined, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in as much flour mixture as you can with mixer.  {I was able to mix in all} stir in remaining by hand.
Use your cookie scooper to form balls.  Place on ungreased cookie sheets.  Use bottom of glass to flatten cookies.  Lightly press in candies.  Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden.  Cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes. Move to racks to cool.

Why do I blog?

I have never been one to keep a journal. I have never been able to write in a diary for more than a week! I have countless scrapbooks that still need to be journaled. I do this in hopes of becoming a better journalist. I do this to document everyday life. I do this so I don't have to scrapbook EVERY picture! I do this for me, our friends and family, & mostly the kids. One day they will have it all - because I took the time to document all the little things that REALLY do matter. Everyday life....all the little moments you & I can't remember because the memories are long gone.......
