Inspired by slanzal to try a cookbook journal, I gave it a go. I plan to gather some family recipes, in hopes that I can cook a real meal one of these days. I loved playing with this stamp guy!
I paper pieced his matching hat and pants... then went for a coordinating jacket. I added shadow on his DP jacket using water color pencils and blender pen. I added more color for his necktie (on top of the green DP) with watercolor pencils and a blending pen, also. Spaghetti & meatballs are also pencil colored.
Not sure if it's a different way of using pencils, but I had fun with it!

I love what you did with this guy! His outfit is wonderfully pieced, and I love the tabs. I hope you fill this book with those great family recipes - a pinch of this and a sprinkle of that!
