Open House Today

Today I am having my new catalog Open House. I've been busy prepping for it and getting carried away with refreshments. I've been making cookies!!!!! Check them out!!! And now my counters are covered in royal icing (that needs to be cleaned up before the open house in 2 hours)!!!



I also wanted to share with you one of the projects I will be demonstrating. These covered Peppermint Patties are a great project for a Valentine's Day gift. If you have kids, these would be great fort hem to give to their classmates. And they're so easy. Start with your Scallop Circle Punch and punch out two scallop circles for each peppermint patty. Then with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch, punch out your next layer. Then stamp your image, here the Love stamp from Tagger's Dozen and punch it out with your 1 1/4" Circle Punch. Put all your layers together and attach them to your peppermint patties with a glue dot. They take no time and are so cute!
