MADE WITH LOVE BAKING RECIPE BOOK | with Kathy

 I'm excited to be kicking off a couple of weeks of Made with Love Inspiration.  I adore this collection.  As a baker, I think all the cute little cooking icons are just the sweetest!  I decided to make a little baking recipe book to fill with my favorite treats.  This would make a fun gift for someone moving out on their own or for a new couple.  Take a peek...

The covers of my book are covered chipboard measuring 5.5" x 7.5".  It is bound using a hidden disc method (see this video for a tutorial).  I love using disc binding, especially for recipe books.  It makes adding pages so easy!

The binding is covered with some of Doodlebug's new Heavy Weight Acetate.  

On my inside cover I printed a kitchen conversions chart.  I always find those handy!  I decorated it with some of the Odds & Ends.    I divided my recipe book into 4 categories... and created a divider page for each.  They are decorated with Odds & Ends, Chit Chat pieces and they are labeled with Alphabet Soup Puffy Stickers.  I added a punched tab to the sides to easily turn to different categories.  

I punched the Made with Love Recipe Cards using my Cinch Multi Tool, so they could be added into the book.  In between some of the dividers, I added tags, cut-aparts and Odds & Ends for a little color and fun.  Here are some views of all the inside pages/dividers.

I just love all of the punny sayings!  I love that by using the disc binding that I can add in pages as needed!  I created a video run through of the album and it can be seen on my YouTube Channel below.

That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
