Inkredible Stamping

I had so much fun playing with Rub-Ons at stamp came on Saturday. The possibilities are just endless!! For many of you this was your very first introduction to Rub-Ons so I decided to keep things simple. I think we all loved the quick and simple jars we made. Here’s a look for those of you who missed club…

The first jar idea we made came straight from Leadership. They had this fun idea on display and I loved it!! I filled my sample with Red Hots – You could really fill the jar with any kind of candy you want. It would make a great little party favor for a Birthday or Shower.

The second sample we made is similar to the idea I sent out in the January Stampin’ Update! I though these would make a great Valentine’s Gift Idea. Add a coordinating card and you’re ready to go. For my samples I filled them with homemade salt and sugar scrubs. Of course you all wanted the recipes .. so here you go.

Yummy Chocolate Hand Scrub Recipe

• 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder
• 1 cup of light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• about 1/2 cup of oil of your choice (I used Avocado Oil)

Mix the first 3 ingredients together in a bowl. Then start adding the oil gradually, mixing as you go, until you get the consistency of a thick paste. Fill your jar and you’re ready to go.

To Use: Apply it to moist hands, rub in a circular motion and rinse well. You’ll be left with smooth, soft, great smelling hands.

Lavender Salt Body Scrub

• 1 cup of Kosher Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of vitamin e (I just cut open a Vitamin e gel cap)
• Several drops of Lavender Essential Oil
• about 1/2 cup of Olive Oil (or whatever you prefer)

Mix all ingredients together. If the scrub is too thick you can add more oil to thin it out. You want a thin paste.

To Use: Apply to moist skin rubbing in a circular motion and massaging gently with your fingertips. Rinse it off with warm water. You should exfoliate about once every 15 days for soft smooth skin.

There are TONS of super simple homemade soaps, bath salts, and scrubs you can make. They are tons of fun to decorate and give with your Stampin’ Up! supplies. Here’s a website with a few more fun recipes Teach Soap .
