Just about everything I used to make this project is from PTI. The box they have is just the perfect size for their recipe cards. I plan on make some of these for my house hold, but I think I will have box for each category and then make my own tabs (for instance a box for Soups & Stews, one for Favorite Holiday recipes, etc.). My friend likes green and does not like things frilly, etc., so keeping this simple and "her style" was a little tough for me, but in the end I think they both will just love this box!
Here are the index cards. The stamped image fits in a 1 3/8" punch, but I trimmed it down a bit by using the 1 1/4" and then mounting it on some Old Olive punched out with the 1 3/8" . There are actually 9 index images, but I only used 8.
For the index cards, I chose the design I wanted as the topper and then stamped my words along the following lines (Serves, Cooking Time, etc.). I put "Instructions" on the back so as to ensure plenty of room for ingredients, etc. Thanks so much for stopping by, I'd love to hear your comments on this.
