Happy Pi Day

 
 Happy Pi Day!!  In honor of Pi Day, I have this yummy card to share with y'all.  

What better file to use than this yummy apple pie file from KaDoodle Bug Designs
?!?  It's a perfect match!!





I'm an avid baker in my spare time and have finally decided to make my own recipe book for those that I use regularly.  I also inherited my Grandmother's recipes when she passed and I want to hold onto her own handwritten recipes as long as I can.  This recipe book will be a work in progress as I gather all my favs and add my own touches to each recipe card.

Here's my Apple Pie recipe card ~ just in time for Pi Day.




I started out using my Sizzix Library Pocket Die to cut the actual recipe card.  I also cut one solid color for the back and a decorative piece for the front.  I also cut out the pocket from a patterned piece of cardstock ~ perfect mat as it was a baking piece =)



I then cut out little tabs to from a sheet of apple paper to indicate it was for an apple pie.  I used double sided tape and adhered that to front side.



Added my pattern paper.



Flipped it over and added the red piece for any area to write notes.


I then added the assembled pocket to the front along with some reinforcements where the holes were punched.  This is where I will store her original recipes as they are mainly written on paper and folded between pages in her cookbooks.





Next, I added the adorable paper piecing of the yummy pie to the pocket which will hold the family recipe for apple pie.





Now I just need to fill up my new recipe holder with all my yummy recipes.

Thanks for stopping by!
