update on week 1

So I've gotten all of my recipies printed out. if you would like a copy of the template I made so that you don't have to write out your recipies (it look a lot nicer in my opinion to print), let me know and  I can e-mail it to you... well, try at least, it's through google drive with Lucidpress... I'm still learning how to do it...

so my book should be here tomorrow. I did order extra pages because of all of the recipies I have, and that will arrive at a latter date. I will update and post tomorrow.


My advice for this project:
-have lots of ink
-have lots of thick paper
-it takes time, don't give up
-order the book asap, it takes time to arrive

Starting over. 52 weeks of projects...



Ok so in this day and age, doing 3 projects a week for someone who works is just impossible unless you stay up till 3 am every night and wake up at 6. Sorry, that's just not happening here. I like my sleep. So This week I told myslef that I would be starting my projects again, but this time I am only going to be doing only one project a week. Right now I've started re-doing my recipe's. Instead of just making cards like i've done before, and probably many of you before me, I will be creating a recipe book. Now, I know most of you are thinking ugly white paper and as many recpies on one page as I can get. But that is not the case.

I was browsing on pinterest the other day and I cam across a beautiful template. it is off of this site: http://www.avegasgirlatheart.com/2013/06/june-1-monthly-freebie-recipe-book.html This woman has a whole list of freebies that are just amazing. So I downloaded this recipe book template, and then i got onto Ludipress (because I do not have Microsoft publisher) and I created a template so that i didn't have to write out all of my recipes (my handwriting is atrocious). I will be taking pictures tomorrow, I did get the same book as her, but I have a feeling i will be needing more inserts.

I was so excited about this project, that during the next few months until Christmas, my father-in-law and I will be stealing my mother-in-laws recipes and making her a recipe book as well! YEAH! Check it out, check out the other freebies too. Any digital scrapbook-er will love this site! ENJOY.
