Card & Book

I made this card and little book for Lynn’s birthday.

Since the schools finished for the holidays she seemed to have nothing but rain so I thought this image quite appropriate for her. Thinking back i’m almost certain I used an umbrella image last year for her. DSC01254

It’s an easel type card held up with blue gems (raindrops)I’ve also used fabric flowers and spotty braid. The image, which is a new stamp but from where I can’t remember, is coloured with Promarkers.

This is the book I made for her, it’s only about 4 inches square and fastens together with spotty organza ribbon. The papers are K & Co but I don’t know the stamp as it was borrowed from Kaz.

The pages are cut, folded and glued back to back with a stiffer card for the cover. DSC01258DSC01259

She is going to love the card and the book. I love the way you've used the gems (raindrops) as the stopper for the easel. x
