Scrapbook style cookbook, image heavy

[cottonpatch]

This is a cookbook I made for my sister for this past christmas, yeah I know i'm a little behind on posting my projects!  I had bought a set of matching paper and bought the rings and tab dividers as a set at a scrapbook store, typed out some recipes, and tada!  The creation was born!

That looks really great.

I would use the binder loops to hang it from a hook in my kitchen to keep it handy.

Absolutely adorable!!  I love it!!  I might have to adopt the idea and make one for myself.  I started making a scrapbook, but I LOVE this wayyyyyyy more!  Gorgeous!!

[cottonpatch]

Thank you both!  I never thought of hanging it on a hook  I'll have to tell my sister, she's got hooks above her counter!  I'm glad I have smart people around me cause my brain doesn't think sometimes, lol.

Cool!

 I was thinking of doing somthing like this for my sister as well, for this Christmas! Yours looks wonderfull!

[crafty-minou]

Oh deffinately making myself one of these when I have the time! I was looking for a better, prettier way to keep my recipes rather than a binder and this is perfect!

[cottonpatch]

I'm glad I could inspire other creations!  Good luck, I know they will turn out great!

This is awesome! I've had a similar project on my To Do list for _months_. Thanks for sharing!

[Craftastrophe]

that's such a great idea! i wanna make one 

[queserasera]

What a cute idea!  I could see doing a couple different categories and then putting them into one of those tins that you decorate!

looks so good!! i love it!!

[Funky_Fairy_Wings]

I really love this! I think I'm going to have to make one for myself 

[sewingcybermom]

I love this idea...my swap partner has this on her wist....and thanks for the onion soup recipe on the card....I'm always using that stuff!!

[MamaHateful]

i LOVE this!! I have the same paper, wild saffron, i made a paper bag album with it.

[Serenthia]

Very nice choice of papers

[MsMia]

I love paper products and I am so going to make this.  The options are endless.

[cottonpatch]

wow thanks everyone!  I didn't realize I was still getting comments on this.  I am way over due to make more of these, Christmas will hit me before I am ready, it always does, and sewingcybermom, I am so glad I could give you a recipe you could use, haha.  There is some yummy stuff in there!  I actually have a recipe blog I am posting that recipe tomorrow, haha.

[garden.girl38]

I love this!  I actually have recipe swap pages already in a box that I could turn into a little book like this.  Great idea.

[The_ChiHa]

What a fabulous idea! I'm making one for my mom but I'm doing it in a 12x12 scrapbook. Now I might have to make one this way for my sister!

[cristal84]

Hi i'm a french crafster (sorry for my english ). i love this scrap, the idea, the creation, very good

[katie08]

oh wow! I love this! Very cute idea and a great gift! I want to make one now haha. Maybe if I ever finish my list of projects..

[heatherface]

Very good idea!!  This is an awesome idea to archive family recipes in an interesting way.  I love the colors you used, also!

[Kajikit]

What an adorable idea... I keep my recipes in a binder with plastic pockets but it would be such a cute idea to make a little scrapbook of my favourite go-tos. I might have to steal your idea...

[RosieGressett]

Hi...I absolutely LOVE this scrapbook. I am looking to make one for my sister. Would you be willing to possible give some instructions on what you used and such? Thanks =)

[josywosy]

What a great idea! And a great gift idea....very cool!

[missimoinsane]

This just screams cute and organised.  I have lately been thinking of something similar to record my stocks of what I have, don't have, need, want etc etc and this would be super cute and not too big.  I would however change the binding on mine to ball chains instead of hinge-rings but that's just me.  Anyways well done on what you have created here.  Super cute and I love the colours and how the whole thing looks ~ you should be pleased

This is super adorable. I like your choice of patterns and colors. This is definitely an awesome present.

[GypsieJ]

What a great idea...this would be a great way to give everyone in the family a collection of family favorite receipes to hand down!
