Ive been a busy bee- see what ive made

Its one of my best friends birthdays on monday and besides making her a card i wanted to make her a little gift too,

she has been a bit down of late so i wanted to give her reason to smile and know how lovely she is,

So i thought id make her a little keepsake book, its only 10cm in diameter but as i went of my own design and measurements lol i wanted to keep it small,

I chose laura ashley papers as i know she likes that stuff, i made up 9 sleeves for the insides and decorated them with a lovely stamped quote, mostly friendship ones with the feel good factor

here it is from a different angle!! what do you think? i used stamping up seam binding ribbon to fasten, 

here is one example of the sleeves, i made all the tags with my punch and layered them all up, used pearl rust brilliance ink to stamp, the quote stamps are from papermakeup stamps and kaisercraft stamps,

i really hope she likes it??

i know its possibly a bit plain inside but didnt want to overdo it lol

 

id like to enter this into the following challenges

 

1. Divas by design - Friendship

2. Cute card thrusday - autumn old (the colours are autumnal and there is gold there)

3. Paperplay - Autumnal tags

4. Fab n funky - Autumnal colours

5. Papertake - Anything goes

6. Pile it on - I spy with P...(peel offs/Pages)
