Project 56 - The Best Cookies in the World!

Oh my goodness,  you guys have got to try making these!!!  I found this recipe over  at Kerry's Blog.  They are the easiest cookies I have ever make, and the best tasting I have EVER tasted!!  I made them for my neighbors and friends!  Here is the recipe:
Praline Strip
1 cup real butter not margarine.
1 cup brown sugar (firmly packed)
1 cup chopped Pecans.  I purchase the whole Pecans and chop the up myself.

Approx. 24 Graham Crackers...enough to cover the cookie sheet.

1. Line a cookie sheet with tin foil.  Spread out Graham Crackers, splitting them into halves and/or quarters, to cover the entire sheet. 

2. Bring to boil: 1 cup butter & 1 cup brown sugar.  Once it reaches a boil, simmer for 2 minutes.

 

3. Add 1 cup chopped pecans and stir.

4. Remove from heat and pour mixture over the Graham Crackers. Spread evenly.
5. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes.

Mixture will start to spread out over the Graham Crackers in the heat.

Allow to cool completely, then break apart. 

 I lay them on a clean dish towel to get rid of some of the butter. 

All done.....Wrapped and ready to go!

BUG HUGS!!

Project 54 - Car Vinyl Completion....

Ok....so I know I posted this pic of my car, 

all dressed up for the holidays.  

There was one thing I didn't put on there because

 it was a little too early when I first put the vinyl on.  

So, since we only have 7 DAYS  till Christmas.....

I decided to complete it with my greeting. 

"MERRY CHRISTMAS"!!!.   

What do you think?

Project 53 - Santa Says Ho.Ho.Ho..

I've been playing with this product called Liquid Applique'.  

It's a nice thing to use when doing  a 3D effect on your project. 

 It applies like a liquid, then you use your heating tool 

and it gets real puffy.  

Check out my 

Santa!

I made my own glitter paper...and it doesn't make a mess!  I'll post a video on how I make my own glitter paper real soon!
