"Intro to Baking" Recipe Mini Album for Kaboodle Doodles Challenge #109: Spring!

Kaboodle Doodles' Challenge #109 is "Spring is Coming - Flowers!".  You could submit any project as long as it fits the challenge theme.  Winner to be drawn randomly with sponsor prize of 5 images from The Stamping Boutique Tues, Mar. 13, 2012 at US timezone.  Participants have until Sun., Mar. 11, 2012 to link their entries at the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog.

Still inspired with baking, I grabbed the chance to create a recipe album for this challenge.  I made sure to adorn the album with as much flowers as possibly can.

I had finished another baking adventure and thought of documenting all of it in the form of a recipe album.  Sorry ladies but I can't share or depart with my recipe.  The photos of my album and all the recipes in it are for my personal use only.  And I won't be divulging them to anyone.  Sorry!

Here's my mini album project
