The base box is Cherry Cobbler and I covered it with paper from the Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack. I inked one of the cuppy cakes from the Cupcake wheel and colored it in with my markers then punched it out with my 1 1/4" circle punch, adhered it to a 1 3/8" circle punched piece in Cherry Cobbler and then to a scallop circle punched piece out of Chocolate Chip card stock. The ribbon that I used was 5/8" satin ribbon.
I stamped the recipe cards with my "From the Kitchen of" stamp set on to white card stock then I adhered them to a piece of Chocolate Chip card stock. I know that it is using more card stock than needed, but I thought that the extra piece would make it a little more stable and I think that it looks nice. The last card that you see pictured is a little kitchen prayer that was in my Mother's cookbook that I thought was nice ~ I added Cherry Cobbler card stock to the back of that one so I can tell that it is different from the others.
I was thinking of offering this as a kit complete with instructions, what do you think? I think that it is perfect for those holiday cookie exchanges - or the holiday pot luck's that we all have at work. If you are interested just leave me a comment and I'll get back to you. This is all I have for you today. I know that I will be working next week so I won't be on the computer til late in the day - but I will be getting back to you all. If you would like to check out my Stampin' Up! blog HERE you can see that I have all the links for you to the products that I used.
Have a super great weekend!

I like the "kit" idea - go for it!
Count me as your first customer - send more details on cost, etc.
Hi, Joani!
I don't mean to be a STALKER *lol*, or anything, but, where the heck are you????
I have been checking your blog, and frankly, I'm worried 'boutcha...
Hoping it's just a computer issue, and nothing in real life.
Hope you see you around SOON!
