NSD 2019 Challenge - Donna's Spiral Recipe Book

Hello Crafty Friends

Here is another fabulous recipe book from Donna...... pull out your binding machines - it's time to make a spiral bound recipe book (If you don't have a binding machine, I'm pretty sure Office Works will do the job for you ;) ) 

Hi all,

 It is NSD (National Scrapbooking Day) which lasts all of May in Aunty Vera Land..  

All of the Creative Team are going to have lots of challenges and tutorials for you to join in and there are also prizes to be won, so make sure you check in heaps to win..

NSD is about memories and can take any form; for me this month it is about my grandmother and my mum's recipes that I still use and have passed on to my children.. Wonderful Memories... 

I am going to be giving away one or two of my creations to someone who creates along side of me in all of my challenges.. That means you need to create my project, take a photo and post in my challeng folder on Aunty Vera's facebook group .. Here

Challenge Two

Today I would like to show you a book I created using the gorgeous paper from Bo Bunny..
And did you notice the paperclip dangle.. I cased the idea from Lolly Palooza, you can watch her videos Here

I cut the recipe cards apart from the 12 inch x 12 inch of the Bo Bunny paper from my package this month.. They have the ingredients on the front and the directions on the back..

I inked around the edges using Hero Arts Clearly Kelly's Coffee and Donut inks and Clearly Kelly's Outdoor inks. 

I wanted to be able to use this book (giving it as a gift) so decided to laminate the pages.. 

I cut the front and back of the book from Black cardstock 

6 1/2 inches x 4 1/2 inches.. 

 I adhered cut aparts from the 12 x 12 inch papers to the front and back.

I got my Zutter out from the dusty box it has been sitting in  and punched all the pages and covers.. ( To be totally honest I had to read the little instruction book again as it has been so long since I used this machine)..

I decided to go with this piece of paper as the cover as I just loved it..

The book opened ..

I created a tag to place in the little pocket on the back of the cover.. I fussy cut lots of little images from the papers and I adore those little enamel dots..

Now isn't that tea time border die just gorgeous.. I love it and with the Vintage Pearl embossing powder is my favourite items in the May package.. 

A look at the book from a different angle..

The paperclip dangle I made. I fussy cut all the tiny images you see on the charms.. 

The front of the book.. I love how it turned out..

A few more pages opened up so you can see how easy it stands..

I have tons of photos over on my blog for each page of the book.. 

Be Warned it is a huge heavy photo post..
