Shower Gift - Recipe Album


Tommy & Katie had a wedding shower a couple of weeks ago. My gift was a recipe book with 24 of Tommy's favorite foods. Of course it wasn't quite complete when I gave it, but they got the idea. I have it back and am 1/3 of the way finished with it. My due date for completion is his apartment move in date of August 11. Each album page is 6 1/2" x 4 1/2". I have made the recipes 4" by 3 1/2" to have room for embellishments.
This is the 1st page of the album.











On this page I used a scrap of paper I got from a garage sale stash of paper. It has old recipes on it. Fun!




The album is a Picfolio Minutes Album from Creative Memories. I don't know if they still carry this item or not as I ordered it from my consultant at least 3-4 years ago.








You undo the straps and wrap them around the back to form a easel type album which is perfect to use for recipes! And another bonus - my son's kitchen and dishes are in this raspberry color!
