Recipe Sharing

Hello! And welcome to another My Pink Stamper Design Team day! Our challenge for the month of February was to use as many My Pink Stamper stamps as we could on one project. I had a few ideas in mind, and after playing around with my original creation, I went to my second :).

As most of you know, I absolutely LOVE to bake - it's my second addiction (I mean, umm, passion)! Every time I show up at a get-together or an event with something sweet, it almost never fails, someone asks me for the recipe and I don't know it by heart. I don't know why I never thought of this before, but I made recipe cards to keep in my purse for those occassions that someone just falls in love with my recipes. My Pink Stamper's Yummy-licious set was PERFECT for this idea....





Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to swing over to My Pink Stamper and check out all the wonderful creations our designers have in store!

November Pinkalicious Blog Hop

Welcome to the November Pinkalicious Blog Hop! If you've just hopped over from Tracy's @ Craft Junkie Too, then you're in the right place! If you're just stopping by for a visit and would like to hop along, go to My Pink Stamper to start at the beginning. Now onto my post....

Do you ever shy away from things that are new to you? I do, when it comes to crafting. I guess in my head I'm worried I'll have no idea what I'm doing, but then again, do we ever?! :) That's how I felt when I found out the assignment for today's hop was a scrapbook page or a mini book. I have no problems with scrapbook pages, but I've been wanting to make a mini book forever now...so I finally did it! I wanted a place to keep a few recipes that I use often for cupcakes, icing, cookies, and other sweet treats.

I started by finding the cereal boxes I've been collecting just for this type of project, and cut them down to 4x6" rectangles (no fancy shapes with the cricut for my first try lol)



Then using my wonderful imagine (that collects more dust than I would like to admit), I cut out a few "kitchen" items - and very cute patterned paper - to make my cover. I added some ribbon (straight to the little wholes I made with the zutter, because I could SWEAR I had a notebook wire/coil at home and I didn't) and a little tag that says HAPPY EVERYTHING! - from My Pink Stamper's newest release Itty bitty-licious, because any occassion is a good occasion to bake something up!

Here's a quick close up!

I added one cut to the back, and curved a sentiment to "move" with the cookie bowl cut...and this is such a cute one for a Sweets Recipe Book (from My Pink Stamper's More Fabulous Phrases)....

There you have it, my first mini book! I'm looking forward to adding my recipes, and maybe some tabs in the near future! Thanks for stopping by! Your next stop is KARLEE!
