Chocolate and Cake - oh my! That's a challenge right up my alley, yum! and it's this fortnight's challenge at Jellypark Friends.
A long time ago I made a couple 6" x 6" recipe cards and I've been wanting to make more ever since. Many of my recipe cards are a old, and becoming difficult to read. I thought it would be a good idea to make a scrapbook of my favorites. This challenge just gave me the little kick in the behind I needed to get back to that.
The Jellypark challenge is Chocolate and Cake so how about a chocolate cupcake recipe. The recipe is from one of Ina's (the Barefoot Contessa) cookbooks. I love here and have several of her books. Any recipe I have ever made had come out fabulous. Try it, I'm sure you'll love it.
For a recipe card I prefer to keep them on the flat side and relatively CAS but at the same time I don't want them to be completely plain. The size of the recipe also affects how much embellishments I can put on the card. Since this recipe fills most of the card I used the empty space next to the ingredients for a good sized image and just added a bow and a brad for embellies.
Here's the deets:
stamp - Jellypark Friends "Girl and Cake" digi
ink - printer
paper - My Favorite Things "Blu Raspberry" and "Midnight Blue" card stock; Stampin' Up "Soft Suede" card stock and "Specialty Sweet Shop" dsp
miscellaneous - copics; stickles; divine twine; Creative Memories cutting system' Xmas red Stickles; clear stickles; Stampin' Up Jelly Bean Sweet Shop brad
Thanks for stopping by, come back again.
