One Hour Challenge Recipe Layout

The olives were made using the George cartridge and the loaf of bread is on From My Kitchen.  I just had to set it to cut at real size to get it this large.  Used an old MS punch for the red strip and a SU punch on the blue.

After the photo was taken, I decided to round the corners of the page and inked it with Chestnut brown chalk ink.  Now it looks a little more finished.

This is the first page I've done for my recipe album with a pocket for the recipe to slide into.  It's not going to be handy because all the pages go into plastic sleeves but it does give a little variety to what I've done so far.

I fixed this bread for dinner tonight.  Had my all-time favorite Italian meal:  olive medley, rosemary bread and a glass of Black Gold wine for an appetizer, then penne pasta with Italian sausage and marinara sauce and a tossed salad with homemade Italian dressing.  Yumm-O !  The only way it could have been better was if I had been at Macaroni Grill so that I could have ordered Penne Rustica!  LOL!
