Fillable Recipe Card

If you haven't noticed, I love to cook. My sister and I grew up cooking and baking with our mom and we both love trying new things in the kitchen. However, I hate writing out recipes. So, I created this Recipe Card as a .pdf file that you can type the information into and print. So much faster and easier!

I also wanted to let you all in on it. So, here is the free printable for you!

How to Photoshop Food

I want to explain some very, VERY basic Photoshop skills today. (I am not an expert by any means!) I use 3 steps pretty much every time I photoshop a picture, especially with my food pictures. Here is a before and after of my Ham and Cheese Crescent Rolls (recipe will be posted soon!).

See how much crisper the colors are? The whites are whiter and the colors are more vibrant. It makes it look more professional, in my opinion.

There are only 6 steps to this tutorial. Like I said, VERY basic!

Step 1: Click on Image >Adjustments >Levels

 Step 2: Adjust the sliders on the bar until your image looks the way you want it. Don't forget to "check" preview, so you can see what you're doing.

Step 3: Click on Image >Adjustments >Brightness/Contrast

Step 4: Adjust the sliders to your liking.

Step 5: Click on Image >Adjustments >Color Balance

Step 6: Adjust the sliders. It defaults to adjust the midtone colors, but you can adjust the shadows and highlights as well.

And there you go, a brighter, more professional-looking picture!

one of my passions

I haven't written about one of my passions on my blog yet. It's something that I love to do in my free time and would love to do as a profession. It's graphic design. I love making logos, banners, business cards, flyers, even t-shirt designs and recently opened my own Etsy shop (kb designed) for creating that type of thing. I would love for you to check out my store.

If you're wanting to update your blog banner, but just can't find what you're looking for, shoot me an email and maybe I can help you. I just recently updated mine and I love it! I also just made a friend's banner and you can see it here.

Here are some of my other projects I've been working on. Take a glance and hop on over to my Etsy store to get your own custom graphics designed!
