Recipes



Had some fun with this!! It's a school exercise  book underneath all that stuff. I'm forever tearing recipes out of magazines, trying them, loving them then losing them! So I decided to try and keep them all together.

 First I tore up and crinkled some lovely handmade paper that the cat had chewed through...SOD!  He's forever heading to my stack of paper, reaching for the nice textured stuff and pulling it out to sharpen his claws and teeth on!! I then tore up some tissue paper that came in a shoe box...nice deep red shoes...hmmm. ( Do I think I have a problem with my NEED to buy STUFF? Well I don't think its a problem but others might think otherwise!LOL!) This was all stuck down with Mod Podge, dried then painted with acrylic paint and highlighted with bronze paint. The flowers and buttons are from my stash. The metal plates are coloured aluminium from Ten Second Studio, which are embossed then sanded to bring out the pattern. Cool stuff! That was FUN!

What a brilliant idea, sounds like you collect recipes the same way I do...with a magazine tear, here and there. I love this book, Viv.
