split pea and gammon soup

I've decided to do a book of favorite family recipes for my daughter for Christmas. She'll probably move away to study at Uni next year.
This is one of her favorite soups.
Goodness knows why I'm scrapping these instead of just photocopying the recipe from my book...!!

By Katie:
Kraft
Little Vintage frames
Hung Up Frames No2
Lil Bit Tags (staples)
Rubber Wraps No1

By Anna:
Dripped Stains ToolSet No. 1

Other:
Wooden spoon and 'homemade' stamp by Carolyn Bender from Shabby Kitchen Kit

Fonts:
Chelt press trial and Jayne Print

ETA: I'm not much of a cook. I didn't know what gammon was, either!! Perhaps it's an English term. I just buy smoked hocks / pork soup bones. Hope I'm getting the right thing!! Tastes great anyway.

Because this will be so much more special! I can't wait to see more. I really like the curved title and the photo series.

I know why you're scrapping these instead of photocopying them: it's a million times better this way! What fun it would be to cook from these pages!

What an absolutely fabulous idea and a gift to be treasured, not only by her daughter, but her daughter and her daughter and yet her daughter after that. Absolutely wonderful.

I love the way that you have created the title and the four photos in frames look just right! Your recipe sounds yummy. Smile

I know that your daughter will love having a cookbook of her favorite recipes from home.

P.S. What is "gammon"? It must be called something else in the states.

Esther - This is a wonderful thing to share with your daughter. A recipe book that is touched with your unique artistry will mean so much more to DD than photocopies. :-).

P.S. I can't wait to see more. I am definately going to try this soup.

Beautiful page! I love the spoon and the stains. Very eye catching in the gallery.

(I did this for my sons last year and they LOVED it. If boys like this then your daughter will treasure it.) :O)
