I decided not to make a card this month - a friend asked for a recipe for a cake I'd made which features apples and pears so I thought a jazzed up recipe card would fit the theme perfectly. I printed the recipe onto kraft cardstock to give it a base colour with an autumnal theme and then decorated it with leaves from Big Bloom Chrysanthemums, an apple from Teeny Trees and a title from Back in the Saddle. Much better than a scribbled on a post-it note which is how I usually hand over recipes!
Time to surf around the rest of the party participants - thanks for stopping by.
Your cake sounds lush and such a pretty recipe card to go with it , great idea.
