I made these recipe books for my family for Christmas. We all contributed recipes, then I compiled them and put the books together. It was a fun project!
I used my "Voila" stamp set to decorate the front cover. I bound the books myself using my Bind-It-All. The books measured 6-1/4" long by 3-1/2" high. I made the front and back covers by covering chipboard (I actually recycled that chipboard/cardboard stuff that comes in the Designer Paper Packs during shipping) with Riding Hood Red card stock. The design on the front of the book uses Kraft & Very Vanilla card stock. The image is stamped in Basic Black and colored using blender pens. I finished it off with Black Gingham ribbon.
