Step 4: Turn the scrap pages into a Digital Scrapbooking Recipe Book in PDF format and then email to family and friends. It will save me money on printing, shipping boxes, and postage when I turn my digital scrapbooking recipe book into a PDF album and email it to friends and family.
Here are some of the pages in my Recipe Scrap Book (PDF format).
Note: I have my view turned on to 2-page viewing – but you could set it to see only one page at a time.
Here are a few more images of some of the pages my Recipe Scrap Book.
These pages where easy and fast to make. Now I plan to send this to my family and friends (by email) this 4th of July digital recipe book. This makes it so easy and fast to share all of my recipes with everyone!
