Creative Cuts & More Mega Recipe Blog Hop

It's Here!!!


Welcome to the first day of the Creative Cuts & More Mega Recipe Blog Hop, which will feature the 8”x8” Treasured Family Recipes Kit. We have 24 designers who will be creating wonderful pages to inspire you. Plus we all will be sharing some of our own delicious treasured family recipes.

At the bottom of this post, I will have some BLOG CANDY for you! Please scroll down before moving on!

Make sure you check back at www.diecutdiva.com tomorrow for the Holiday Treats Apron Recipe Kit Blog Hop. We will also have 24 designers who will be showcasing their great creations and sharing holiday treat recipes.

Now, did you see Lisa's ADORABLE project!? I am such a huge fan of her talent and I am blessed to be on another Design team with her. (If you didn't arrive here from Lisa's blog, you don't want to miss what all of the very talented designers have in store for you! The CC&M Mega Recipe Blog Hop starts at http://diecutdiva.com...

Treasured Family Recipes Kit

As part of the celebration CC&M will be having a great sale. For the next six days, we will offer 20% off the entire store. But act quickly, it is only for six days – this sale will end on Nov 14th. Make sure you enter this code recipebloghop2009 during checkout.

As a continuing part of the celebration CC&M will of course give away great gifts. Each day we will give away one kit. Here is the twist – go through the blog hop, leave wonderful comments for the great designers. After you have finished the blog hop, return to www.diecutdiva.com and instead of leaving a comment, you need to share a recipe to have a chance at winning the kit. Share the recipe on your blog and link it back and get another chance to win the kit. Help us also make this a great recipe swap.



Now without further delay here is my creation. If something was not included in the kit, I will make a note of it right below each picture...
The Cover: Not included in the Kit: Stamp Set: Baked With Love by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, Accessories: Wide Twill

Page 1 and 2: Holiday Pretzels stickers...

Pages 3 and 4: Not included Family Fudge - black cardstock. Also the Black bazzill cardstock pocket and the ribbon and brad.


Pages 5 and 6: Not included ribbon and brads, and Black bazzill cardstock pocket.
This flips up to show more of the recipe and a family picture...


Pages 7 and 8 Brads not included - recipe flaps up to show a family picture and remainder of the recipe...


Pages 9 and 10 - not included is the White Gel Pen, ribbon and Brads and the Black Bazzill cardstock pocket.

Pages 11 and 12 - everything is included!




OK!
Here is a note for the BLOG CANDY!!! While I was working on this little scrapbook/ recipe book I was thinking this stamp set (Baked with Love) would go perfectly with this kit! All you have to do is leave a comment here with your name and contact information if it is not attached to your name.



Here is a picture of the set that I will be giving away on November 12! Come back and join us for the HOP on Friday!
