Recipe Book

As a person who loves baking, I created a simple book of my favorite recipes.  The patterns are based off of old/vintage tablecloths you may find.  Each recipe has a different color and pattern.  The cover mixes all of the colors used throughout the whole book in it's own pattern.  A piece of denim was scanned in and overlayed to give it more of a worn/vintage look.  The book was bound and was made to stand on the countertop for easy reference while baking.
