I like to try new recipes, don't you? But I don't like going through all of the work of making a new recipe only to find my family and I don't like it. That's one of the reasons I love my recipe club! I have 5 or 6 ladies who switch off being hostess. The hostess provides 3 recipes for me ahead of time which I create 6x6 recipe cards for. On the day of recipe club the hostess makes her recipes for the rest of the club. We all get to try her recipes and then everyone creates the 6x6 recipe cards so they can take the recipe home. You get to taste the recipe to decide if you would like to make it yourself and get some fun stamping time in. It works for me!
Here are the 3 recipe cards I created from this month's hostess, Beckie.
I went for a sophisted look on this one with the recipe printed on River Rock cardstock, and the striped designer paper from the Mocha Morning Specialty pack. I used the new Apothecary art stamp set and labels collection Sizzix die both from the new Occasions mini catalog. The veggies are from the stamp set, Homegrown.
I used my new favorite ribbon from the mini the pleated ribbon! This one is in Riding Hood Red. the stamp set is Fruits and Flowers. Colors used are Early Espresso, Whisper White, Pear Pizazz, Daffodill Dellight, and Riding Hood Red. Can you see the subtle stripe of the stripes embossing folder beneath the fruit?
I have been itching to use this stamp set with my recipe cards and I finally did. This one uses the designer paper, domestic goddess. The stamp is a single stamp called Now You're Cookin'. I see lots of possibilities for this one. I used the labels die cut again and backed it with the 2 1/2 inch circle punch. Colors used are Basic Gray, Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight and Whisper White.
I hope you enjoyed these. Thanks for stopping by today!
