Fandom Gratitude Cookies

I'm a huge FAN of showing Gratitude. These days gratitude is lacking yet greatly appreciated. This is a simple and affordable way to say "Thank-you", "I appreciate you", "Thinking of you". These little crimson gems freeze well too making it easy show impromptu gratitude.

Cool and put into little bags to give away. There's more happiness in giving then receiving, but seeing the faces of those you share with light up! Pure joy and I'm a massive Fan of giving joy :)
