Wordless Wednesday

A blog I follow has a "Wordless Wednesday" post each week that showcases a photo that needs no introduction.  She's a better photographer than me but I thought I'd give it a try.

Recipe Books.....

Isn't this the cutest little recipe book ever!!!  It's made using CTMH's My Creations 3-Ring Binder and Twitterpated pp. I added some embellishments to dress it up a little as well as ink distressed around all the edges using Chocolate Ink and a Sponge Dauber.
----------------------------------------
My workshop attendees got to choose the paper packet or color scheme they wanted to use....the choices ranged from Christmas-themed, Grace pp and random colors to match their kitchens.




We used Flip-Flaps for the recipe card protectors.....I printed the recipe cards using Excel.




Additional products used not listed above:
Dimenstional Elements - Basic Alphabet, Bookplates & Shapes (discontinued)
Font used: Pharmacy from www.dafont.com

Trick or Treat.....

I just love Halloween...you remember the days of hurrying around the house to find all the makings for the perfect costume (we never got "bought" costumes when I was young).  I loved coming home and dumping all the candy out on the floor, hiding all the "good stuff" and giving my mother all the stuff she loved (or so she said).  I ate candy for DAYS (might be why I'll be seeing my dentist twice this month)!!!!

Here are two 6"x6" cards and one 5"x7" all using one of our NEW paper packets, Jingle!!!  It's fun and funky and since there are no traditional Christmas colors, it can be used for just about anything!!!
