My recipe is Jello Plum Pudding.  It was a favorite jello salad served at all our family gatherings on my mom's side.  I remember helping my grandma make it a few times.  She used shears to cut the dates and had an old hand chopper.  As a child we would eat so much that our bellies would be hurting afterwards

My challenge is:

• Mix things up by us using some patterned paper
• Do some fussy cutting
• Add some small embellishments (pop dots, enamel dots, buttons etc)
• Add a ribbon.  I used stars.  
• Use the sketch provided.  I found it at acherryontop:

 Cherry Dessert is what my Grandma would bring to dinner at my house.  It is just 3 ingredients.  My challenge at Cookin' Up Creations uses this recipe as an inspiration.

For the cherry pie filling:  use brads, pop dots or gems

For the sweetened condensed milk use:  some white on your page 

Stir in the whipped topping:  use patterned paper (as many as you like)      

Bon Voyage

 Beginning the Cruise to Hawaii in September 2022

Here is sketch #539 I used from sketches in Thyme

Here is the recipe from Cookin' Up Creations November 2 challenge :

3 pounds of potatoes - use 3 different patterned papers.
1/2 onion thinly sliced - I want to see some layering on your layout.
9 tbsp. flour - for this ingredient I want to see lots of white space.
6 tbsp. butter, diced and divided - use the color yellow or 6 or more of something on your layout. I stamped the stars.
salt and ground black pepper - the color black or some type of misting.
3 cups whole milk - Add circles to your layout. I created mine using the bottom of a cup, you can create your circles however you choose.
