Everybody Loves christams ...especially me!!

Huge hello everyone!!
I'm sure your all like me at the moment,
running around tryingf to get organized for chrissy (that is only a week away!!)
Finding that your scrappen time has been cut down and the challenges are piling up
and all you can do is dream of what you'll do with that sketch
and hoping you wont fall asleep again in front of TV...lol
well thats me..lol
still you got to love chrsitmas!
i had to make a huge Cleaning and weeding list to bring the house up to scratch before the
the big day....only four more days and i get to see my Big brother!!!
and Jenal and my Neice MAddison and bubba Zander!!!
WOOHOO! i'm so very excited!!!
between that i've got to get some scappy pressies done...lol

well today i want to share what Ash and I made for his Kindy teachers : D
we made chrissy cookies! and some super cute tags! too!
even more super cute with Ash's own handwriting! :D


How cute are these!! and so super easy to make
Christams Tree cookies
2 cups of plain flour
1/2 cup icing sugar
200grams of butter

put that all in to a vitamizer/ blender
zap in short bursts till looks like breadcrumbs
then add 2Tablespoons of cold water
zap again till forms clumps and
then break out the baking papers and roll between sheets
cookies cutter and away you go!
bake in oven @ 180c for 15mins
or until golden brown
to icing mix is just 2cups of icing sugar and boiling water
dip cookies and let the acess drip off
then sprinkle!...i love sprinkles!!

For the Tags i used the Echo park Everybody loves chrsitams collections,
totally happy colour combo!
