Cookie Exchange
.
This year, I joined a Card Club with my two sisters, two nieces and a friend of one of my nieces. We meet every other month and make two cards, two scrapbook pages or a combination of both. Last Sunday, we had a cookie exchange. In fact, it was a cookie and card exchange. Here are the rules we followed:
1. Bring one handmade card for each person.
2. Bring one dozen homemade cookies for each person, plus one dozen to share.
First we exchanged cards, then cookies.
Some of the gals had “extra” gifts for each of us.

Here are the cards we made:
It was a great day. My cookies were horrible, but I’m planning on doing better next year.

Ribbon Christmas Tree
Sounds like great fun and looks like you are talented bunch of card makers: each one a masterpiece!
Oh, the cards are beautiful! I have never participated in a cookie exchange, but have hosted a cookie baking day two times. Those are a lot of work and sometimes there are just too many cooks in the kitchen.
How on earth did you make that ribbon tree? I love that!
Cookie exchanges are always fun! Some years we have a cookie baking day at my SIL’s house, and it is so, so good!
I’ll make the ribbon tree the “craft” on Thursday. It was very easy and fun to make.
