April Showers Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 We think 2020 needs to end on a sweet note, don't you?! Jump on board our 15th Annual Scrap Girls Cookie Exchange! It's the lowest-calorie cookie exchange in the country because we're exchanging cookie recipes, not actual cookies. Download our recipe template HERE and then insert your favorite cookie recipe and embellish it as desired. When you send us your recipe card, you're automatically on the list to receive everyone else's cards! Here's how to join in the fun: · Design a 4x6-inch recipe card (300 pixels per inch) using mostly Scrap Girls products. Use one of your favorite holiday cookie, candy, or sweet treat recipes - something "tried and true" is preferred. Using the free template is not required. All skill levels are encouraged to participate! If this is your very first time to try your hand at digital scrapbooking or if you’re a pro, please join in the fun! · When you design your card, avoid putting any text within ¼ inch of the edges. Anything close to the edges can get cut off when the card is printed. Place your name or Scrap Girls Forum username somewhere on the recipe card (small text is fine). Save your design as a JPG file, with a file name that includes your name or your ScrapGirls Forum user name (for example, my file might be called aprilshowers_gingercrinkles.jpg.) We want to know who made what! Attach your card to an email and send it to cookieexchange@scrapgirls.com. Please include your first and last name in the body of your email. A confirmation will be emailed to each person who sends a recipe card so they know their card was received. Please allow 48 hours for confirmation. Cards MUST be received by Midnight (ET) on Sunday, December 13th. Unfortunately, if you don't send in a recipe card, you will not be able to get a copy of all the cards. No exceptions. Your recipe card is your ticket to all the fun! We ask that you not post your recipe card in your Gallery, Facebook, or anywhere else until the swap is over. This way, we can all be surprised by the cards we get! You can post your own card in the Gallery or anywhere else any time after December 13th. Please don’t sell or give away any of the finished cards on blogs, emails, etc. You may print some or all of the recipe cards as a gift for someone you know personally, but wide-scale distribution or sale is not allowed, as per our commercial use terms, which can be read in full here. You can submit more than one card, if you wish - the more the merrier! On December 15th, each participant will receive the links (via email - the same way that links come when you buy Scrap Girls products) to download the recipe card files.Participants will need to include their First Name, Last Name and email address for us to send them the recipes.

MariJ Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I’m glad to see the cookie swap back. I’ve scrapped so many recipes I’ll have to try hard to find a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcgal00 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Sounds like fun but since my family is mostly gluten free and sugar free, I don't particpate in dessert exchanges. Have fun ladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsoarty Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Oh gosh Now to come up with a new one... like @MariJ I’ve done so many. Today I baked snickerdoodles with my grandkids. I supervised, Dashiel read the recipe and ... well you’ll see a layout soon I’m sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celestine Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I just finished my recipe card! I used an old recipe that my great aunt and grandma used to make. I've made it several times myself and am always surprised at how much I like this old, simple recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosie Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 OK, I just checked. I started this in 2006, and did every year since! Does that mean I've participated in all the Scrap Girl Cookie Exchanges? I counted it off on my fingers and this will be my 15th! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Oh, darn. I sent in two and was trying to do a third but I’m in the midst of setting up a new laptop and transferring from one to another so it’s given my no scrapping time since I need to clear up the old one for a trade-in within 14 days. I can’t wait to see everyone’s recipes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapgarden Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Just sent mine in. This is my favorite cookie, well almost, after chocolate chip. Almost missed the deadline. Forgot I couldn't wait until the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
