Hi Everyone and welcome to Kickin' off Christmas Blog Hop.
If you arrived here from Susan's blog you are on the right track. I hope you are enjoying all the wonderful creations along the way and that you are remembering to leave comments so that you can win one of the wonderful prizes. Be sure to hop to the end because our caboose, Samantha, has a great give away. AND for each comment you leave, you have a better chance of winning a Custom Crops $25 gift card. Isn't that wonderful.
For my project I made a gift bag and filled it with puppy chow.
I love puppy chow and when I saw Christmas Emma by Samantha at SP & Company I knew I would be using her on some Christmas gifts. I made up a big batch today and set to work making a gift bag to fill.
So now I guess you would like to see the gift page.
This is the front with a gift tag/card and Emma peeking out. |
This is the back with the recipe and another cute Emma. |
This gift bag is going in the mail box for the mail person. I like to leave a little something at Christmas just to let them know I appreciate all that they do.
Now for the prize. Samantha from SP & Company has given me this gorgeous stamp set called Ornamental Trees to give away to one lucky winner. You can check out some of the beautiful cards that have been made with this set here.
In order to be eligible for the prize all you have to do is become a follower, if you are not already, and leave a comment. That's all!
Your next hop will take you to Jin Yong

That gift bag is adorable! And I love Sami's stamps.
Too cute...especially for someone that has dogs..I had never heard of "puppy chow" before. Love the idea. Thanks.
Wow! What a fun post. I love that sweet image (gee what a surprise- a dog lover! Ha!) What a great recipe and it sounds/looks delicious. Love the ornament tag/card too. Great stuff! Best, Curt
What a great idea! Love it!
What a cute gift bag and tag set! TFS!
adorable bag! you picked the perfect stamp for it too.
I am such a sucker for puppies! What a great combo snack, recipe and packaging. Love it!
so so cute!!! Just adorable.
Ooh! The gift bag is just so cute & such a great idea!
I love this tag and have some of these small bags (somewhere in my scrapping closet). How did you get the tag card to cut around your printed digi image? Great idea too. Thanks for sharing.
I think I see some "puppy chow" in my family's future. Although I will probablem call it kitten chow since my girls love cats. TFS!
What an adorable idea to make not only a gift bag filled with puppy snacks but then to include the recipie too. Too cute.
