Recipes of Love

I am so Blessed to work with women who are so creative  and   who share their creativity!!

A fellow consultant named Bonny Tullo developed a BONUS recipe card workshop to compliment the GIMME SOME SUGAR recipe book kit sold by CLOSE TO MY HEART this year.  I offered it to my CLUB members and had 10 people sign up.  What a great class!

I, of course, forgot to take pictures during the class. I do have plenty of pictures of the pages we made.  Such a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon in July.  Friends and Air conditioning who could ask for anything more!

So, I'm sure you're not here to read my blather ... on to the pictures!!

Starting with the beautiful COVER piece.  This will be attached to the front of out BLUSH 6X8 ALBUMS.  The GLITTER isn't really showing up well in these pictures, but in person, it really makes the cover POP!

PAGE 1

Nothing like starting your album out with a picture of food!  I love the idea of having pictures in my recipe book!  I am looking forward to going through my photos and finding one of EVERYONE in my family in the kitchen!!

PAGE 2

I totally LOVE this picture of my grand daughter making chocolate chip cookies!  The minute I saw the ALBUM kit I knew I was using this picture! 

PAGE 3

I didn't have any 3X4 pictures ready to go, so I put place holders in.  3 photos on this page!! 

I love, love, love arrows with hearts on them.  I think this stamp set was totally purchased for the arrow and the camera!  LOL

More cameras.  That means more pictures today!  I know I can find some to fill these spots!  And check out the embellishments.  All of these were stamped and cut with a CLOSE TO MY HEART stamp and thin cut set!!  So easy!  And I will be adding many more to my album as I get recipes written and pages filled.

Because I put the kits together with what I had - some of us used B&T on this page, and some of us used the FLOWER PML card.  I love how the ZIP STRIPS on the right hand cards continue the flow of the album.  

 I just laid a PML card from one of the other kits over my page so you could see what it looked like.  The embellishment is from the SCRAPBOOK workshop, and will appear like the picture above.

Again, the ZIP STRIPS at the bottom of the recipe cards pulls the viewer along the path.  And then you are at the 'picture' page!  Again, some home made embellishments make up the cluster in the lower right corner on the right hand page. And more GLITTER paper sparkles in real life. 

PAGE 7 

'FINE AND DANDY' in the instructions used stickers from the SCRAPBOOK kit.  I used those stickers on my scrapbook pages, so I stamped the phrase here.  I think it works just as well!  And, I gave away all my PML cards for the right hand page, so again , I stamped my own and cut out the rolling pin.  I popped mine with DIMENSIONAL TAPE for more interest.  

Isn't that a great album.  I can't wait to add the pages from the CTMH kit and get my recipes in there!  

Thanks to Bonny for sharing her talent and to all the girls who came to play with me this week!  

I can't wait for my next class!
