I googled them Karen.  Downloaded them, added my text and printed them on photo sticker paper.

Thanks Kim!  I have been making food gifts for kindy/playgroup teachers and have been looking for nice labels for them - there are just perfect.  I like some of the other ideas on her website too.  Thanks!

That hamper looks fabulous Kimmy. Your friends are very fortunate. Thanks for the link to the labels. Very interesting

I found this site for gift labels last week and really liked the options there.  I will have to experiment how best to print them up ... transparent labels?  plain white?  coloured?  ...   decisions, decisions, decisions!

MM has put this website up on our FB site, non-TMX but some great ideas for Christmas.  I love the marshmallow pops.

Thanks MM.  Have saved several recipes to make as special treats for Xmas.
Judy, several have TMX instructions at bottom of recipe.

I received this in my FB feed this morning and thought it would be a great idea for those making Christmas hampers this year or even for their own use.  Remember it is an American recipe so the tablespoon is 15 ml compared to the Australian 20 ml. A US cup of flour weighs 125g and a cup of sugar weighs 200g but I'd appreciate it if someone could confirm those cup weights  as it wasn't that clear cut finding these measurements. I will be interested to hear if anyone tries it, the vanilla cake looks very moist.

We'll done girls.

Why don't all recipes use grams? Some good cooks give a choice, cups, grams and ounces next to each ingredient.
Thanks for the link Judy. Very good idea.
My GC made jars of cookie mix for friends one Xmas. Think Marina posted the recipe.
