Stamps: Seeing Spots, Little Pieces, Classic Alphabet (retired)
Ink: Wild Wasabi, Pumpkin Pie, Brilliant Blue
Paper: Brilliant Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi, Whisper White and Jersey Shore DS Paper
Accessories: Circle Punches 1-inch and 3/4- inch, Velcro circles for the closure

Recipe Swaps

They're finished! My daughter and I are headed for the CK Scrapbooking Convention in Manchester New Hampshire next week. It's our annual "girls weekend" with my sisters-in-law. This year, Flora gets to take classes for the first time. One of the most exciting ones

we're taking is the Paper Crafts Magazine "Recipe Swap" next Friday night. We each had to scrap 20 copies of a recipe on 6x6. At the class, we'll embellish an album and make 3 food-related projects. Then we swap recipes with the other attendees. What fun. Recipe collecting and paper-crafting all in one class. Two of my favorite things. Here are our recipe pages. Flora's honors her Gram's famous Whoopie Pies. She's going to journal a bit about what the recipe means to her on each page. All her idea, as is the layout. My recipe is a favorite of Flora's, Stuffed Shells. It uses that cute Crab and Company set.

Stamps: Crab and Company, Sandy Shells wheel, Seeing Spots (Flora's), Little Pieces (Flora's), Live Your Dream (journaling lines, Flora's)
Inks: River Rock (mine), Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Basic Black (all Flora's)
Paper: Sahara Sand, River Rock, Blue Bayou, DS Paper Western Sky (all mine), Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue (Flora's)
Accessories: Punches (1-1/4" circle, 1-3/8" circle, scalloped circle, 1/2" circle, 1-1/4" square, 1-3/8" square), Bashful blue striped grosgrain ribbon
