Hello friends!!
I am sorry I wasn't able to post yesterday... I was working on a DIY Recipe Binder project and I'm a bit sick (along with Calen) so I wasn't able to get it complete. This is a project I have had in the works for weeks. I have a recipe book where I write and keep family recipes, but I also like to use recipes I find from Pinterest. But we all know how Pinterest recipes are.... some work and some just don't! This is where I am keeping all the recipes I try and my family likes that are 'keeper' recipes. I hope you enjoy!
The pages were cut to 9 3/8" by 11" to fit in the binder and be able to be seen beyond the side of the page protectors. I like keeping the recipes in page protectors so as I use them if something spills on them it's still ok.
There are a lot of different products and tools I mention in this video so I'm going to try to link the ones that you might be interested in...- Cutterpillar Crop paper trimmer: amzn.to/2N1S0wK- Self-healing craft mat 36"x24": amzn.to/2N7j0uR- Cuttlebug: amzn.to/2X7zebO- Brother P-Touch label marker: amzn.to/2DNoZjQ- Red lined double sided tape: amzn.to/2TUqxiZ
- Glue runner: amzn.to/2EgkjEJ
- 3 ring hole punch: amzn.to/2TS7VA8
- CutterBee scissors: amzn.to/2BETZ5s
- T-square ruler: amzn.to/2X8e4tY
- Tab metal die (Elle's Studio no longer offers the one I have): amzn.to/2EhU6G2
Today was one of those days where I just wanted to do something different. Don't we all have these projects sitting around that I just hadn't gotten to. What projects do you have in your craft room ready to do?

Today I am working with an old (like from 2017) Gossamer Blue main kit, this is the last one I have in my stash (unless one is hiding somewhere which is definitely a possibility!)... it makes me a bit sad because they are no longer in business, but there are still lots of other great kits available around.
