Ever since I wrote the blog ~ (Got a Good Lemonade Recipe? Or a Great Quick Page for Digital Scrapping Fast?) I have been obsessed with gathering lemonade recipes!
It all started when I went to visit my daughter in Nashville and they had a heat wave. All I could think about was drinking lemonade to cool off!
After I had gathered some basic lemonade recipes and several very interesting recipes then I decided to scrap them and make a digital recipe book!
I thought that I could keep a copy of the digital recipe book on my computer, and print one out to keep in the kitchen every time I want to make lemonade. Since my daughter lives in Tennessee where lemonade is especially good on the porch in the hot weather, I thought I would email her a copy too! ![]()
First, the digital recipe book needs good lemonade recipes!
Here are few places for you to gather some too!
I like the recipes I found and shared in the blog article – Got a Good Lemonade Recipe? Or a Great Quick Page for Digital Scrapping Fast?
And, I thought I would share some extra recipes I found since my last lemonade blog article too!
So see towards the bottom of this article for more great lemonade recipe ideas!!!!
Next step in building my lemonade recipe book is to get some digital
scrapbooking supplies!
I wanted to quickly make my recipe book so to make things easier I got the The Lemonade Stand Quick Page Kit 1 8.5×11″. This kit already had a lemonade theme and because it has pre-designed scrapbooking pages with recipe cards, all I needed to do was to add my photos, and type some recipes in!
Yes, it was that easy!!!
Also, I wanted to make some coordinating scrap pages that were a bit more personalized so I also used the the Lemonade Stand Digital Scrapbooking Kit 2 (11×8.5″) too!
This kit is filled with lemons and other citrus inspired digital papers and embellishments so it really worked well with the quick page kit! Using both of these kits helped me scrap my recipes for my digital album!
Next step, Scrap the digital scrapbooking recipe pages. It is easy to make get digital scrapbooking pages using Photoshop Elements. ![]()
I just bring my digital photos, a Quick Page, some digital scrapbooking s
upplies, and type a few words, or recipes to personalize and I am ready to make the next digital scrapbooking recipe page!
If you like you can use Photoshop to do the same thing!
If you are new to digital scrapbooking and would like to know more about Photoshop versus Photoshop Elements then see this article!
I make a cover page with the title of my recipe book, and then I make several recipes pages, and sometimes I include a closing page with a personal message!
Then, Turn my scrap pages into a Digital Scrapbooking Recipe Book in PDF format and 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, or two pages at time.
Here are more of my recipe pages:
Also, you can have many more pages in your digital recipe book – which is great so you can include all the Lemonade recipes you have found or even add some fun summer recipes and photos too!
These pages were easy and fast to make and now I plan to send
this Lemonade Digital Recipe Book to my daughter in Nashville! I think she will enjoy it as the weather is even hotter than when I was visiting her! And who knows maybe she will even try some of the recipes!
