Recipe Card Holder

Do ever feel that your recipes are scattered all over, from the cupboard, tacked to the fridge, to that messy book with your clips of magazines of ideas for new dinners. Well I have been feeling like this and had to finally do something about it. So I made a handy dandy card holder.
This is what I used:

Set of recipe cards -Dollar store :)

2 Double fusible interfacing cut to the size of my cards

2- pieces of fabric cut the same as the interfacing (front)

And another color of fabric cut the same for the inside

Oh and 2 rings to hold it all together

Here are all the supplies laid out ready to put together

There it is... pretty quick and easy!!
And there are my cards ready to fill with the recipes

I have, as well as many more that I find!!
Well there you go!! A nice a neat place to keep

all of your treasured recipes. I also thought

to organize it a bit further is to make tabs

for different kinds of recipes!!

Off to more crafts!!

Two of A Kind

This post is a little late.. :) But it is still one that I need to make. Well about a month and a half ago I finished a pair of socks for my good friend Mrs. Hardy!! I started this project I think in November and worked on them during the winter season!! Well here are some pictures of the project.
Here they are all finished!! One thing about socks are that you make one, and feel good that you finished it, until you realize you have to do it all over again to finish the pair :) Knowing that Mrs. Hardy had a sweater that matched the colors in the socks, I thought I should make something to wear on the sweater. So I made her a flower pin!! It was fun and really easy. It only used a little bit of yarn as well which is nice to use up the extra bit of yarn from your project. Well there you have it another project done. On to the next... :) ~Rebecca
