Homemade Photo Memory Game

One of my favorite games growing up as a child is memory.  I loved it.  So I decided to make a photo memory game for my daughter for Christmas.  It's very simple and you can do in an afternoon.

You will need scrapbook paper, chip board, mod podge, foam brush, card stock (or copy paper), and some sort of cutting device (I used a paper cutter I already had, but you can use an exacto knife of box cutter to cut your chip board. 

First, you need to cut your chip board.  I cut mine 3x3 but I think the original memory game is 2x2 squares. I cut 20 squares but you can do more or less depending on the age of your child.

Second, you need to cut your scrapbook paper the same size as your chipboard squares. 

Third, print off 3x3 photos on your home printer.

  Fourth, modge podge your scrapbook paper to your chipboard and let dry.

 Fifth, flip over and modge podge your picture on the other side. 

Lastly, I modge podged over the surface of the scrapbook paper and the photo to seal it really good. 

Then, wrap up for Christmas morning.

Frugal Neighbor Gifts: Banana Nut Bread

Here is my frugal neighbor gifts this year.  I went with banana nut bread because it is so simple.  I  went to Michael's and bought these cute little mini loaf pans for $1. Then baked the banana nut bread using this recipe:

Ingredients

• 2 C. Sugar
• 3\4 C. Butter
• 3 eggs
• 1 1\2 tsp vanilla
• 2 C. mashed ripe bananas
• 1\2 C. sour cream
• 3 1\2 C. Flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 1\2 C. chopped pecans 

Method

Preheat Oven to 325' F. Lightly butter & flour 2 8" x 4" loaf pans (or 6 mini loaf pans) - - baking time for mini's 50 min. In a large bowl, cream sugar, butter & vanilla until fluffy. Stir in eggs one at a time, beating with each addition. Stir in bananas and sour cream. In a second bowl, combine flour, soda, baking powder, cinnamon and walnuts; stir into banana mixture just until combined. Pour into pans. Bake about 55-60 min for large loaf pans or 50 min for 6 mini loaves. Ovens vary - check bread with toothpick, when it comes out clean remove from oven - cool on wire rack.

I wrapped the loaves in cellophane, wrapped them in Christmas scapbooking paper, and then tied a ribbon around them.  

Note: They also had these in white and red which would be perfect for Valentine's day or any other time for a quick gift.  I would stock up on these now. I found these with Christmas baking accessories.

Personalized Dog Bone Biscuits

Here are the personalized dog bone biscuits I made this weekend. In our family our four legged friends ARE part of the family.  With the being said I have 6 dogs I buy for and it can get expensive even if you shop sales.  So I thought I would be creative this Christmas and make dog bone biscuits for each of the dogs.  I have NEVER attempted this before so I wasn't sure if they would turn out but they did.  I also wanted a simple recipe because remember I wanted my doggie friends to have a frugal gift.  I searched and searched and all were calling for all sorts of special ingredients (none of which I wanted to buy).  Then I found this:

Simple Dog Bone Biscuit Recipe

*1 1/2 C beef broth or chicken broth

(I used bouillon cubes since they are cheaper than beef/chicken broth in the can/bottle)

* 2 C Whole Wheat Flour

*3/4 C Peanut Butter

*1 T Baking Powder

* Cookie Sheet

Preheat oven to 350 degress.

Mix the ingredients in a large bowl.  You want the consistency to be similar to cookie dough so add more broth or flour as needed.

Knead the dough and roll it out on a flour cutting board.  You want to have the dough rolled to about a quarter of an inch in thickness. Note: I think I may have cut mine a little thick so I had to increase the cooking time.

Pick your favorite cookie cutters and cut away.  I used a dog bone I already had and a cat cookie cutter I picked up at a garage sale this summer.  And I thought the cat was fitting since most dogs love to try and eat cats.  But I don't condone such behavior from my dogs :) We love cats too.

I didn't show how I made the personalization in the dog biscuits but I got creative and used my William Sonoma message in a cookie cutter set and taped the letters together and used them to stamp each dog's name in one of their biscuits.

Place the biscuits on a greased pan (I used a silpat) and cook for approximately 20 minutes.

Note: I also doubled my recipe to allow for 6 doggie bags. Each dog received 3 dog bones (1 personalized) and 1 cat.

May Your Christmas Be Merry And Bright Sprite Label

Remember when I posted about this inexpensive hostess idea here.  Well I followed through with one of the projects I wanted to do and it was easy peasy and super cheap.  I bought the Sprite I think at Walmart on sale for 88¢ a 2 liter.  Used card stock I already had and used wired ribbon that I already had. I like the wired ribbon best because you can shape it and it stands up better.  So for 88¢ I had a practical and cute hostess gift.  By the way I had three parties to go to but you could take more than one if you wanted.  Make sure you go here for the labels since they are not my creation and I cannot take credit.  I did alter them a bit though in gimp (a free editing program) to include "The Jones Family" at the bottom of tag.

Inexpensive Hostess Ideas!

I love this cute little freebie available here.  I'm going to a pot luck dinner this weekend and thought this would be perfect to bring.  I usually always bring wine or champagne but since I'm pregnant I thought it would be more appropriate to bring Sprite instead.  All you have to do is print out these pre-made labels and attach a cute little bow to a bottle of sprite.  I enlarged my "May Your Christmas Be Merry & Sprite" label about 25% because I think the creator of this is using individual bottles of sprite and I will be bring a 2 liter.

This is also a cute idea for a Betty Crocker individual dessert.  I know there are a lot of couponers that may have these stockpiled and this would be a great way to dwindle that pile down a bit.  Click here to print your pre-made labels.
