Tried and True Recipes




Do you know any awesome cooks? I sure do. Our church is full of them! Since we are so close to our church family, I decided to make a keepsake book containing the handwritten recipes of the ladies at church. I'm going to give it to someone who is getting married this summer (shhhh--it's a surprise!)

I embellished a gift book that I got from Clear Artistic Stamps using scrapbooking paper (source unknown), Stampin' Up cardstock and ink, and letters from American Crafts. I ended up mixing and matching stamps from four different stamps sets from Clear Artistic Stamps. The pages are all ready to glue in the recipe cards to save for a lifetime!
