[New England Eeyore]

Checking in here. I won't be starting these until May but I know what I'll be doing for it and I've taste tested my recipe!

 

[Mickster]

I have made both recipes numerous times and I have all of my paper and embellishments. I just need to type the recipes in to my computer.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Checking in.. Have my ideas..but nothing else... I need to really get on the ball today... I'm so bad about waiting til the last minute right now..

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I printed out the recipe and just finished making my Die Cuts at Archivers this morning. Still need to cut out the ones on my Cricut and I can start assembling.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Gals,

Would do you think of a rustic red color for the background paper w/ a cream colored accent paper to put the poem on... do you think that will kind of incorporate all the months and not over power one in particular.. I plan on embellishing a bit more than normal to incorporate the months...

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Sounds pretty to me.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Thanks.. I found the color I wanted in a stack I have.. so I will take it with me to match it up.. Oh, I better write a not to make sure I get enough for 13!!!

 

[Mickster]

Sounds perfect!

I have both recipes typed and formatted. I just need my head to clear and I'll be good to go!

 

[rlovew]

That sounds fine. I was planning on putting these in a binder like my last one and your page will be the first in the binder so it is by itself.

Rebecca

 

[YodasMom]

Sounds great, Nancy!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

before I adhere anything..

Are we making the pages portrait or landscape??? I want to make sure I do it right!!!

so it's 8.5 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide???

 

[rlovew]

That's how most of the recipes have been made in the past.

Rebecca

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Thanks Rebecca.. that is what I thought I remember seeing.. off to get to work!!! I have my idea, bought supplies, bought sparkle mod podge to try for my embellishments.. I'm ready to go... (well, provided it works the way I have invisioned!!!)

 

[rlovew]

I look forward to seeing it when you get it done.

We did them portrait for the last 2 swaps.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

We did them portrait for the last 2 swaps.

Thanks!!! Wanted to make sure before I threw the whole thing out of whack!! That will work perfectly!!!

 

[MazdaUK]

ooooh! Sparkle! Sounds lovely

 

[Mickster]

bought sparkle mod podge to try for my embellishments...

I can't wait to see sparkle Mod Podge! I love to use Mod Podge. I usually paint with sparkle paint first and then Mod Podge over it. A combo product would eliminate that extra step. Thanks! I can't wait to see your finished design!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Done!!!

DH says they look cute..but we will see... I did a basic embellishment not to distract too much from the poem..

I hope everyone likes them!!!

Rebecca,
I'll be mailing out on Wednesday (regular mail)..
