Hi Farmgirls,

*******************
PARTNERS PAIRED UP THE OLD FASHIONED WAY:

DREAMER42 - MEGUIRA
FARMGIRL68 - SUNY58
MARLEE - QUILTWRIGHT

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE FUN WITH THIS SWAP! THANKS FOR JOINING!
*******************


Is anyone interested in swapping a recipe card pocket?

It's something I just created for my family history recipe album and thought it may be fun to swap with a farmgirl! They serve as charming little pockets to hold a family photo or memory about the recipe or what ever is special to you.

Instructions:

Create one recipe card pocket, template attached. You would double fold your selected card stock where the paper bends at the bottom of the card so you would only have the two sides to enclose. You would enclose the sides with any medium of your choice and decorate the pocket. Please enclose a favorite recipe, a recipe card, baking stickers, just a little something inside.

I have also attached a few pictures of a couple I created just as an idea.

Sign ups through August 18th.

Mail out by August 25th.

If interested, please leave a message in the thread below.









Template:

I'm not sure if this is going to work, but attaching... If it doesn't work, feel free to use a recipe card you may already have as a template, and add a little file folder tab at the top somewhere to accommodate a little label.

I have you down Katie and Marlee - thank you for joining! I'm looking forward to this exchange and being inspired by you ladies!

I've attached a couple pictures of two pockets inserted in my newest cookbook journal I started:





I have another family history recipe album that I inserted another recipe card pocket, but I actually looped it through the center binder ring to be a little different, was cute!

A specification: as for the pocket, do we have to make it of a large spectrum, like your "cake" or "tea"? Can it be more specific like "carrot" or the type of recipe that will be include? (ex: Christmas jelly)
Thanks!

Anything goes, please use your own creative juices and share your inspiration!! This is close to my heart as I love collecting family recipes and recipes in general! So, please... do not feel limited by my initial ideas what so ever, I just created these cards yesterday using supplies I had on hand. A few other ideas are including a favorite or family recipe with your pocket, including a memory or tradition that coincides with the recipe you're sharing! Just have fun with it!

I forgot to mention that I have mailed yours April last Friday. And, of course, I found your contact info the following day, as if it was nagging me... It just appeared, like I never went in search for it!
Hope you will enjoy it!
Have a nice week-end everyone,

I'm glad you liked it Dianna. That pie recipe is my mom's favorite and native to our area.
