Now for the more exciting part! My dear friend Dinah Corley, from Gourmet Gifts, came up with this fun idea for Valentine's Day, using one of her amazing Recipes! Notice how she placed a Heart Shaped Cookie over top of the Heart that the Scottish Boy is holding. So cute!! This is one of the many fabulous projects from Dinah's book Gourmet Gifts. You can grab her Scottish Shortbread Cookie Recipe and instructions for the project HERE. And don't worry the "glue" she used is edible and tasty too! Wouldn't these make a fabulous gift for Valentine's Day?!
This Giveaway is now Closed.
The Winner will be announced soon!
And even more exciting news, Dinah has agreed to give away another copy of her book, actually two copies (one will be given away here, and the other on Dinah's site), and she will be autographing them! You may recall when I did a giveaway of this book last year. It's fantastic book filled with amazing recipes and all sorts of wonderful crafty ways that you can package them to give as gifts!
Here are the rules:
Just enter a comment on this post in order to participate. The Giveaway ends on Monday January 30th at 10:00 PM Eastern Time. Anyone may participate, as long as it's legal for you to do so, where you live. The winners will be selected via Random.org. If you're entering anonymously please leave an email address, or some way for me to get in touch with you, in your comment, so that we can contact you if you win!!
Want more entries? You can leave a second comment HERE on Dinah's Blog for a chance on a second copy of her book!
FYI ...I was NOT paid for this Giveaway.
