Recipe Booklet (Illustrator)

For this exercise I did two art boards in the same document and made a ruler margin in the middle of each so I will know which page that specific part will be, as the recipe is a small booklet.

First I gave a sort of a yellow colour to the background, then I started with the front page; putting an image of the main ingredient (in this case the bacon), in the middle of the page with “Bacon” written above it and “Recipes” written below it, both in capital letters and in black colour. To make a sort of effect to the front page I put two lines in the top left-corner and in the bottom right-corner, and gave them an orange colour to be in the same scale of yellow. After that I started with the pages of the inside (the actual recipes). Basically for both of them I put their title on top of the page in bold and in black colour, then underneath that I mentioned the “Time”, “Ingredients”, and “Directions” with the titles being bold, and all the text in black colour. In the bottom right-corner of each recipe I put an image of a final product.
