Hello Monday!!! :-)....

Good Monday morning!! I am so excited to share my recipe book I made over the weekend! I actually didn't finish it until very late last night....and it was so hard getting up this morning! I am not so sure I will be doing that again anytime soon!!! LOL Anyway, some of us at work (hey Marshie!!, Lora!!) are doing Weight Watchers. I am glad to say that so far I have lost 14.2 pounds, yeah for me!! Since I have been collecting new recipes I have them everywhere! LOL So I thought I would make this special recipe book for all of my new healthy weight watcher (WW) recipes :-) I think it turned out sooo cute!! I just love this western sky designer paper :-) Plus all the little details...the black brads I used on his chef shirt, and then I painstakingly watercolored the little image of the wine, cheese and grapes, and then cut it out! That was the most tedious part, but so worth it!! I am sorry I posted so many pic's but I wanted to show the cover and then what each section looked like and then of course ending with the back page!! I hope you like it!! If you have any questions, I would be happy to answer them!!

I also wanted to thank everyone for their wonderful comments on my scrapbook page from yesterday!! I read some of them to my dear hubby and he still standing his ground!! LOL MEN!! LOL Anyway, you ladies are the best!! I hope everyone has a great Monday!!

Blessings
