Baked with JustRite Love!
My friend, Sue, is having a birthday soon, and to say that she likes to bake would be a gross understatement! Everywhere she goes, her arms are heavily laden with baked goods, particularly cakes, cupcakes and cookies. So when I saw the darling new Recipe Borders and Centers Set from JustRite, I KNEW it was perfect to make a little gift for Sue. Here’s what I made:
Though these may bear a resemblance in style to a recipe card, they are not. These measure just 3″ x 4.25″ and are gift tags for Sue to attach to the top of her bakery boxes when she brings them as gifts. A little adhesive on the back, attach it to her box, and she’s all set!!! The message is clear — a gift, baked with love, from Sue’s kitchen! Fun!!!
The new Recipe Borders and Centers Set has 9 different borders andcenters, giving youtons of ways to mix and match. I love their small size, and they are used on the new 1 3/16″ Wood Stamper – it’s so tiny and cute — totally fun to play with!!! These are both new product available from JustRite on 4/10; however, if you need them sooner, I can tell you how to get them. Please scroll to the end of this post for links under Shopping.
From Sue’s Kitchen was done on the smaller of the Harmony Rectangle Stampers with Times New Roman Font, both Uppercase and Lowercase (in 25 point), except the S — that was done with Special Occasions Font. I LOVE mixing up the font sets for an interesting look! The Times New Roman Lowercase Font is also available from JustRite on 4/10, but you can get those sooner too if you like. Again, scroll to the bottom and lookfor links under Shopping.
The pretty striped ribbon used is 3/8″ by May Arts, available in a numbr of colors at My Ribbon Sale. It coordinates perfectly with the Celery and Bashful Blue SU Prints DP I’ve used here.
And I just wanted to show you what JustRite productI used. See the new Recipe Borders and Centers Set? Anyone who likes to do recipe projects will love this!!! The borders and centers snap into the 1 3/16″ Wood Stamper shown. This new size is just PERFECT for recipe cards and little projects like I’ve done today. And the Harmony Rectangle Stampers are perfect for creating your own sentiments with ease. There are 2 stampers in each box, large and small. I’ve used the small one today, shown above.

Sharon these are so pretty and I love the colours you used. What a great gift they would make for a bride-to-be, hmmmmmmm I have a niece getting married in a few months maybe I’m on to something here. Thanks so much.
Sharon, since I have had the pleasure of meeting Sue last summer at the get together in the UP it is a minor statement to say she is going to like the tags. She is absolutely going to go nuts when she sees them.
The colors are so pretty, the ribbon is perfect and so adorable. Great job on it all. I love them and I can’t wait to get those new JustRite stamps!!!

These are so pretty, and so thoughtful…Sharon!! Sue is sure to love them!!
You never cease to amaze me! I love your blog posts with a capital “L” because your ideas are fresh and fun and oooh so usable. I admit that I have cased your stuff so often, and these little cards are on my case list! Thanks for all you do to inspire and motivate the card crafting community … I am blessed. I’m off to investigate the new JustRite products!
This set is beautiful as is all your work. I was trying to use up an old Su scrap kit-Just Delightful-and I used some of your ideas that I found on SCS from 2007-those were just as beautiful. Thanks for sharing all your ideas
Oh, she’s going to love this, Sharon! It’s perfect for her, and so cute! What could be better than such a beautifully personalized set? Wonderful!
