Stampin’ Up! Blessing Mix

 Blessing-Mix-Jar_c

For 2013 my Blessing Mix is in a Wide Mouth Ball Jar and there’s no stamping involved…. but you could add a cute little tag if you have time.

Since I’ve been traveling the entire month of November I needed something really quick and simple and the jar is just the ticket … with the Burlap of course … I love that stuff!!

Here’s the Blessing Mix Poem:

The Bugles are a symbol of the Cornucopia, a horn of plenty.
The Pretzels represent arms folded in Thanks & Prayer.
The Candy Corn reminds us that during the first winter, the pilgrims were allowed only five kernels of corn per day because the food was scarce.
The Fruit is a reminder that Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest.
The Peanuts represent seeds, the potential of the bounteous harvest of the next season if they are planted & well tended.
