It is "Sew" fun to make recipe pages

This is a post of my latest recipe page for a 6 by 6 album I am making. I just sewed all the layers together and added some buttons. I was pleased with how it turned out.

Recipe Pages are my FAVE

I really enjoy creating recipe pages. This is one that I just finished. My good friend, Cambria, sent me 360 pieces of paper from My Mind's Eye that she picked up at her Costco. I figured I had better start using this paper up. I sewed around the edges...love that Janome sewing machine!!

I turned the recipe around....What recipe would you put there? I know what one I have.

Guess what I made?

My aunts who were here for the family reunion are quilters. I took them to a local quilt shop. It is like looking at patterned paper but for fabrics. I saw this cute idea for a quilted bag and this is a picture of what I purchased for the material for the bag. And the finished bag is all ready done!!

Doing a Jigsaw Puzzle

My aunt, mom and dad arrived safe and sound for the family reunion.

Here they are doing a jigsaw puzzle. Our family likes doing jigsaw puzzle.This one is almost finished.

I have no pictures to post today. I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be blogging about my family reunion on my blog for the next few days. That way the folks that couldn't make it to Illinois this year can see what is going on with the rest of us.
I am getting excited to see everyone and catch up on what is happening and of course...eating!
I hope you and your families are as fortunate as mine and can get together this summer.

Chocolate, anyone?

I love to make 6 by 6 recipe pages and here is one of my fave pages. I Love the look of black and white. I used an ME stamp and a stamp from Crafty Secrets. I think it turned out really nice.

This is a recipe that I shared with my mom and she won first prize for Best Cherry Recipe with her church group. It was fun to hear that she won. Try this recipe sometime.........

Clipies are fun!!

I am finally back to bloggin'!! I had fun making these clippies. Thanks goes to Piris who invented them.

I used my cuttlebug and some new adhesive papers I got at Target. Not bad for getting on the Clippie band wagon!!!
