December Documented

Welcome here!

Using Simple Stories December Documented line & a Sn@p album from the same company - here are photos of the base pages to my book.  I will post photos when I add more so you can see how you can decorate a bit more after the fact.  This is a great idea because the month is so busy - this way the work of getting the album is done & all you have to do is add photos and journalling and notes as your month goes on.

and here we are - at the end for now...

I hope you feel inspired!

a little fairy...

sometimes I do manage to scrap for myself - a book just for our family's eyes - not a sample to put in the store:-)  I love to create so much for the store and inspire many people - however, samples get picked up, held and often dropped on the floor (yes they do!!)
this book is for Aubrey - using Graphic45 Once upon a Springtime paper, a Magenta mini album with flaps, and adorable pictures of my gorgeous girl - this is a book just for her - it was done in celebration of turning 5.

Have a peek:-)

 the front cover - the book is about 7x7 and I tied on an INSANE amount of ribbon!!

 page 1 & 2

 close up of fussy cutting on the cover

 simple layered scallop circle - charm is by Bo-Bunny  "Gabrielle" line

 page 3 & 4

 another scallop circle - border punch is by Martha Stewart (modern garland) rhinestones from Prima

 the flap when closed - jump rings hold it on - I used Tim Holtz

 flap when open

 page 5 & 6 - metal flower is used like a little knob to lift up...

 and reveal more photos underneath - lacey rhinestones from Prima

 Page 7 and 8

The back of the book:-)

my gorgeous girl!!

and yes - I did dress my girl up like a fairy just to take these pics - I had this idea in my head for this book for a little while!

I hope you feel inspired!
