Recipes

This week's challenge at
is
Grandmother's Recipes
The clearest memory I have of my grandma is of
her in her kitchen, bending over, taking cookies out of the oven.
I would have been about 6.
Which would have been 1960.
However,
I like the 50's and that was the era in which I started out,
so that what I went with.  The 50's.
(Well, and the 40's, a bit)
To be totally honest, I'm not very happy with this, but
I'm also not willing to start over.  :-)
Images were googled, border is by Carole Neale 
and I used a couple of textures by
Shadowhouse Creations.

Be sure to check out all the fantabulous art at

  10. Well, I'm sorry you aren't as pleased with it, I think it completely makes me think of a wonderful vintage kitchen, the beautiful art on the cookbooks, and even the appliance in the background. You have such a way with collage.
