Welcome to the Bake and Recipe Blog Hop hosted by the awesome Erica of My Cricut Craft Room . You should've came from the super crafty Tracy.
With the holidays coming fast and furiously we need some good baking and recipe crafts.
Here's what I made....
It's a recipe book.
I cut the bases at 6". I cut this cute tree from Create-a-Critter at 4". I inked the edges of the tree with some MS pigment ink in the Aquarium set to make it have some depth. The awesome crinkle ribbon is a mix of my stash from 3 Girl Jam and My Craft Spot .
Here is a close-up of the back of the white 3" x 5" card to write down the recipes. I adhered some of the patterned paper to give the back a touch of the book. I put these lil velcro tabs on each end of the recipe card so you can remove when you use and replace when done.
Here is a close-up of the inking and corner rounding I did on the pages. I used my X-acto corner rounder and the same MS ink as I did on the tree.
I pop dotted the tree to make it stand out.
And what would be a recipe book without an awesome recipe?
Potato Soup
5 large diced potatoes
1 large onion (chopped)
1 tsp salt
In a pot, with enough water to just cover the potatoes and onions, boil until potatoes are soft.
In the same pot add, 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese (cut into small pieces). Cook on medium until cream cheese is dissolved.
Then add...
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 can Cream of Celery Soup
2 cups of Milk
2 TBS butter
1 tsp garlic salt
1/2 block of Velveeta cheese
1 small container of sour cream
Cook on Low Heat until all ingredients have melted and are well-blended.
When ready to eat...dip into bowl and top with some mild or sharp shredded cheddar cheese, crisp real bacon bits and chopped green onions.
This is delicious!!!!
So now it's time to get hopping.... Here is the line-up.
