Hi Kathy:
Glad to see you and your site are still going strong. I have a question for you, that is not necessarily about crafting,
though it is about sharing ideas/graphics. This Christmas I'd like to make some recipe CDs that would include
photos, and dare I wish for a bit of music,too?  Problem is, I have absolutely NO clue about where to start.  If worse comes to worse, I will settle for putting a bunch of Word files onto a CD with cool, self-created label.  But I'd like something with a bit more pizazz. Even if it was only some icons that could appear on each file instead of the Microsoft Word logo.

My ideal CD would give the viewer a listing of all of the recipes on the CD (maybe 30 or 40 MAX).  As the person viewed the recipe names, they could either click on the name and zip right to the recipe, or to the file for the recipe.

Any ideas?

If it comes down to it, I can certainly whip up a cool little booklet and bind it in a unique way, adding my own graphics.  But since you are the Crafty Chica, I thought I'd check with you first.  I think this is an excellent token gift for neighbors, friends you don't necessarily exchange gifts with, and for folks who give you an unexpected gift.

Thanks for your time
Judi

Hi Judi!
That is such a cool idea! A music CD is easy, you can just uplaod songs onto a disc and then use a fun printing program to decorate the cover - or better yet, you could make a cover and then have it color copied. I'm sure adding Word files for recipes is just as much of a snap, if not easier. You could call Kinkos and ask, or hopefully someone reading this can post a comment on how exactly to do it. Sorry I'm not much help!
Please let me know how it goes!!
Warmest regards,
Kathy :-)
