Homemade Banana Bread layout

Hi, Renee here today sharing a step-by-step tutorial of this favorite recipe layout using the Harvest collection.  I am not the best cook.  There are a few things I cook really well, but my favorite food is not even cooked by me.  My girls and hubby make me THE best banana bread!  The best!  I always love it when they make a loaf of banana bread just for me.  I don’t know what it is…they make it perfect every time!  Gimme a thick slice of their homemade banana bread and a glass of milk and I’m a happy girl.

I created this layout to share the simple recipe and (yummy) photo.

I started my layout by choosing this great hand-written recipe text pattern paper for my background.

I trimmed another awesome text pattern paper under the word “bread”…

…and used my Sticky Thumb 2-Way Glue Pen to adhere it to the background.

I trimmed the reverse side of that pattern paper to 5 3/4″ x 9 1/8″ and adhered it to the page.  Love the wheat design.I used the Hand Towel pattern paper and larger Recipe Card Die…

…to include a decorative recipe card to the page.  This larger recipe card die measures 4″ x 6″ plus the tab.I trimmed the fun Utensils pattern paper to about 4.5″ x 7″ and adhered it to the page.

I trimmed the Canning Jars pattern paper to 4″ x 6″ and adhered it to the page.

I added my photo which measures 4″ x 4″.  I trimmed a decorative 4″ x 6″ recipe card from the Recipe Cards pattern paper and printed off the ingredients and directions.  I used Another Typewriter for the journaling on my recipe card.Embellishment time!

I added the adorable measuring cup, hand mixer, and milk Chips Die-Cut Shapes to my page using Dimensional Dots.

I added my title.  Really love the “Homemade” Puffy Sticker!

I added a “freshly baked” Layered Sticker, a “from the kitchen of” Label Sticker, and a “baked with love” Stamp to the page.  Love this stamp set and the black ink pad that comes with it, too.I added a few Enamel Dots.I added a bit more journaling this time using the From Me To You Roller Stamp.

For a final touch, a wooden spoon puffy sticker next to my title.

Here are some close-up photos of my Homemade Banana Bread layout.

I love the gold shine of the Home+Made Gilded Thickers.
