In this case, it started with a box of cookbooks.... My father cleared out the bookcase at home and called to ask if I wanted them. After all, I can always use all sorts of things for various projects.
The cookbook I used for this collage is called "The classic French cuisine". The book had a 90s look which I can always appreciate. The first step was to tear out all the beautiful colourful images.

Bon appetit!
