Recipe Folder with Cake Ribbon


 
 
I'm sharing with you a recipe folder I have made for the Inspirations site.
 
 


I got the template for the idea from the Art of Pen Pals course Ronda Palazzari is running.  We are using them as letter holders but this one I have repurposed for a recipe folder.




I've used regular 12x12 sheets of card and some freebie stamps and Banana Frog stamps for the decoration...


 

And the yummy cake ribbon from Crafty Ribbons.




I've used one pocket for some of my Granma's recipes and one pocket for a couple of recipes from my Mum.


 

 
 
Did any one else have a favourite birthday cake as a child?  Mine was a Harriet Hedgehog cake...  Yum!

 
 
I've also added a loop of ribbon to make a pen holder so any adjustments for ovens or half quantities can be jotted down easily.


 
 
I reckon Birthday ribbon for a card holder, macaron ribbon for a biscuit recipe folder, paw print ribbon for a vets folder or pet insurance folder, car ribbon for a road tax and MOT folder...  Super cute, easy to keep all our bits in one place and easily personalise-able!


 
 
Thanks for stopping by!!
:)

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   ...
