Harvest Blessings

Here is a quick post showcasing the painted Autumn Designer Series Paper.  Every year I look forward to the Autumn DSP that comes out in the Holiday Catalog…..this year is one of the best!!  I love that there are images which can be fussy cut and added to a card or treat.  Here are couple of cards I offered at Stamp a Stack this past weekend…..they were a BIG hit!  (Unfortunately the color in my photo doesn't due it justice!!)


Love my sunflowers…. Check out the Black Rhinestones for the flower centers!!  They are not just for Halloween!!

And don't forget the inside!!




And here are some pumpkins…perfect for an Autumn Birthday!

And speaking of Harvest Blessings…..(the title of my post).  Here is a YUMMMMY snack mix I made for a recent Bingo event I held.  Everyone went home with a bag full of deliciousness!!





Again….I fussy cut the sunflower for the tag.   This is just a few bags….there were 30 of them!!!  Here is the recipe for this Harvest Blessing Mix….it is sooo good…a little sweet…a little salty!!


I use a big blue roaster pan and fill it full with a mix of
Bugles
Chex cereal or Crispix Cereal
Pretzels
and a can of Peanuts
Then in a  medium sauce pan over medium heat mix ..
1 1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
4 tsp of Vanilla
Heat until brown sugar is dissolved completely just to the point of boiling. 
Pour mixture of bugle/cereal/ pretzel / peanut mix until everything is coated.
Bake at 275 degrees for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.  Let completely cool. 
After it is cooled mix in 1 big bag of Candy Corn/ Pumpkins and 1 bag of MM’s or Reese’s Pieces. 
This makes a nice , big, batch!!   Your friends and family will love it!!
Enjoy!!

Until next time…..
