Recipe Binders....

Wow - what a whirl wind this fall as been. I can actually say I can't wait for this year to be over! 2009 has to be a better year! On a good note - I have be creating like crazy and have gotten a lot done as far so here goes..you might want to grad a cup of coffee and sit back and enjoy!

A few weeks ago Doreen and I sat down on our usual 'creative thursday' and instead of scrapbooking pages - decided to make a book. I go this idea from two places - one, a Starbucks travel mug and the other a variation of a book my girlfriend Lynn made. I created this Recipe Binder for all my Epicure recipe sheets and have since made two more binders and a note book. check them out!

Recipe Binder #1:

supplies: all printed papers Creative Cafe Camden; solid cardstock & ribbon SU!; rubons MM & basic grey; tab punch SU!; page protectors from Staples & binder from Costco.

Recipe Binder #2:

supplies: patterned papers are all Cosmo Cricket Wanted; solid card stocks are Bazzill & SU!; ribbons are from my stash. I also used some magic mesh and some eyelets from my crop-a-dile case. The charms are some old ATB (sorry, no longer able to get). Font was off the computer (will update once I get it off my laptop)

Recipe Binder #3 (this one I will be teaching as a class at the lss):

supplies: Prima Cavalier Collection Paper Pack; cardstock is Scrapbook Sally; pen used for chalkboard look is a white Marvey Opaque Stix; Heidi Swapp Chandeliers; fiskars border punch; office supplies same as above and the curly q is from my Cricut cartridge Accent Essentials.

Recipe Binder #3 Add on - Kitchen Journal!

Thought this would a cool idea to make notes as I cook in the kitchen - especially when I modify or make up a recipe! Hard to see in my photo, but I used a stripe of the ribbon and made it into a page marker (inverted) so the dangly hangs from the top vs our of the bottom! This is simply a composition journal from the dollor store!

supplies: more from Prima Kit (and I still have stuff left)!
