RECIPE BOOK FOR GRANDDAUGHTER

I made three recipe books like this for my granddaughters. I must admit it has taken me a while.

I used From My Kitchen for everything...book pages, words and pictures. The paper is from Nana's Kitchen and Bazzill for the solid colors.

The front and back covers are laminated. I made each recipe 3 1/2" x 5" and laminated each one. They fit into pockets created with an EKSuccess border punch and machine stitched to each page.

I plan to add some photo's of granddaughters helping me cook.

Christmas Cheer.....tree cut @ 4 1/2" and decorated with I-Roc Jewels
sled cut @ 2 1/2"
reindeer cut at 2 1/4"
Joys of the Season.....gift cut @ 1 1/2"
Santa hat on pup cut @ 3/4"

This was fun to do and as always, love including a pup.
