Prima Twinkle and Treats Christmas Cookie Recipe Album Tutorial
Hello, Friends! It’s Wonderful Wednesday and I have a quick and easy Prima Twinkle and Treats Christmas Cookie Recipe Album Tutorial to share with you. I don’t know about you, but when the calendar page turns to the month of December, my family starts thinking about Christmas Cookies!
I have spent decades baking thousands of delicious Christmas treats to share with friends and family. These carefully curated recipes are kept in their very own album, and I love having them all in one spot.
The minute I laid eyes on Twinkle and Treats, I knew I would be making a Christmas cookie album with it. And today’s the day!
Sweet as Sugar Cookies!
How sweet is this lovely little recipe album? I think it’s as sweet as sugar cookies! Measuring 6 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ with a trifold design, it offers loads of room for recipes, photos and memories. The older I get, the more thankful I am to have photos of my mom in the kitchen! Now I have photos of myself with our darling grandchildren in the kitchen, and that is what makes an album like this so special, don’t you agree?
New Easy Page Design
Does a design ever pop into your head that makes you say, “Why didn’t I think of this before? ” That’s what happened when I was designing this album. The pages are oh, so easy to put together. This means that you will have time to create this Cookie Book in time to give it as a holiday gift!
Here’s a peek at the trifold design. Each page unit has a pull out page with loads of room for photos or even a handwritten recipe.
But there are also these fun post card pages! Write your recipe on the post card and tuck it into the photo corners for safe-keeping. Then add a photo of the finished product, or a family member behind the post card. It’s like a twofer!

Wow what a project. This is such a special piece of crafting with all those elements and rather cute residents inside! Anyone receiving this book would have an opportunity to fill the pages with years of memories and treasures to warm the heart.
It has been a very arty week making pop up cards and tags, all un interrupted while the beloved is away sailing, helping a friend. It is amazing how much more gets done, although I am looking forward to having him home again next week.
I hope you are managing the discomfort and pain Kathy in preparation for the surgery in the New Year.
This album is adorable! What a fun idea to accumulate the special Christmas recipes together in their own album! Thanks for the tutorial and the creativity.
What an adorable recipe book-it will hold so many special memories! Thank you so much for the tutorial, as always they are so inspiring.
Hip replacement, Kathy? I didn’t realize it was that bad. You are so brave!
