Aren't done yet! LOL But I do have all the appetizer pages done and one of the main dish pages so I thought I would post them and see what you guys think. The books are only going to be 6x6 so I had limited areas to work with.
This is the Bacon Crisp and Chicken Tortilla Soup recipe pages. I did use the Cricut Markers on some of the elements and I think I like them! Of course I inked all the edges.....it is compulsive with me now! HA HA HA
I pop dotted the pigs nose and used small brads for the chicken's eyes.
Here are the Olive Garden Zuppa Tuscana soup recipe and the 7 Layer Salad recipe. Luckily I was able to cheat on some of these since I had the recipes saved for my own use and also on the 7 layer salad I had used it for a recipe card for part of a swap I did. The lettuce is made from handmade paper and the tomatoes are Robin Nest embellies.
Here is the Steak Marinade recipe, again I had used this one on a recipe card before, and the steak is from a swap I did. The blank page is where I will put Main Dish, but I don't have it done yet.
This one is the first page of the Main Dish section, it is my daughters favorite thing I make, which isn't often. Ya know you don't want to make too much of a good thing...well that is my excuse anyway! HA!
So ya'll let me know what ya'll think!
Very cute. Some ladies are very lucky to get your recipe book.

I can hardly wait to see the finished product. I've been thinking about making something like that with our family recipes that have been handed down for four generations. But first, I have three projects in the fire I need to finish first!
ReplyDeleteLove your work and the fact that you share so many projects with us. Thanks,
Carmen

Okie,
ReplyDeleteSuper job! I love what you did with all your recipes!
Great job on your recipes! I know your feeling.....I did the same thing last year for 2 recipe books I was going to give to my sis & mom! So good luck! I know you can do it.....me, I'm not too sure! :)
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH Okie... these pages are adorable! Now I'm having a dilemma due to seeing yours and Linda's wonderful books.... I've needed to make one of these for quite some time now and after seeing Linda's book I thought ok... I need to do one.... and NOW I see yours and It's like someone is trying to tell me something.... GEEZ... I promise to get one done soon and I hope it looks as good as yours and Linda's!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat recipes and cute pages.
ReplyDeleteI just finished one recipe book for my grandaughter and have 3 more to go..My pages are 8x8 cause I wanted to do more designing on them. I have to tell you I used your design studio designs for bowls and soda can. I used the can for soda, juice and condiments. I cut them down on some. I love that cut. So thanks for helping me do my recipe book.
I don't have a blog page, but maybe I'll email you some of the pages I made with your cuts..
hugs
