I’m sure you are bound to have someone ask you for one of your holiday recipes this year. Or you’re bound to come across a delicious recipe at one of your holiday parties. Why not have a few of these free printable Christmas recipe cards on hand? I think they’ll even work really well if you’re planning on giving out edible gifts in jars. Like these Peppermint Brownie jars 🙂
To get the printable Christmas recipe cards, simply click this link then print as many as you need! I provided a 5″ x 7″ and 4″ x 6″ size.
Hope you enjoy!
What will you be using these recipe cards for?

One of my good friends celebrated a birthday last month and I wanted to do something a bit more personal for her this year. We’ve been through our ups and downs together for nearly 18 years. 18! Now, that in itself is special. 🙂
I have been having a lot of fun creating the graphics for Simply Frugal so I knew I wanted to try my hand at creating some wall art. So, I asked her what her favourite bible verse was and got to work playing around with different fonts and colours. Fun!
This is what I came up with:

I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out and my friend seemed to love it! Especially, I think, that it was made just for her. I gave it to her in a picture frame I picked up somewhere along the way.
I was having so much fun, I decided to make another one:

Of course, I can’t show you these without making them available for you to download and print for yourself! Each picture is made to fit a 5×7 frame and perfect for decorating on a budget!
I hope you enjoy!

I know peanut butter cookies don’t exactly scream Christmas, but they’re my husband’s favourite and I wanted to share my recipe! Included with this post is a free “Send Joy” printable to help make your gift giving more festive!
While I think the printable tag looks cute with cookies, I think it would also look great with a loaf! Maybe banana bread? If you’re not too keen on peanut butter cookies, you might want to consider these holiday favorites of ours:

As I’ve been slowly cleaning/purging the house, I’ve come across a lot of little pieces of paper with phone numbers written down. Silly! This inspired me to make up a sheet that would include all the phone numbers that we need to keep on hand.
