This Stretch Mark Oil Recipe from Pure and Natural Soaps is great if you are pregnant and trying to prevent stretch marks, and also makes a great gift for any friends having a baby!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup coconut oil
2 tbls. cocoa butter
2 tsp. sweet almond oil
Directions:
Combine these ingredients over low heat until it has turned into a clear liquid.remove from the heat and let it cool for a while. Once it is cool to the touch you can pour it in a tightly sealed container.
If you’re gift giving to a coffee lover give them a gift card to their favorite coffee shop in a handmade coffee themed gift card holder. Nicki created this delicious and cozy card with a rounded flap that has a die cut Cup of Joe and some tasty cookies. For the cookies she die cut and dry embossed them, adding some white pigment ink for color and texture and glitter for sugar. I love how the bold red mug pops on the blue card base!
Inside on the flap is a pocket for the gift card and a sweet stamped and die cut sentiment.
