Hello Friday again and oh so so soon!! There was me anxious about the length of the school holidays and yet they are flying past!!
This week I have got that whole Ben thing out of my sytem in one go and dedicated a wee mini book to him!! These Dream Street and Elsie papers are perfect for this 6x8 book and the best bit about it is you can just stick in normal sized photos. I made this style album for the Daily Chrismas Diary last year and it works really well with good quality double sided papers.
I went to town with the old cardboard, gesso and cereal boxes again but for boys this grungy combo is perfect. Had I not been decorating it this mini book would have made a cool birthday present for one of my nephews.
Included in the kit are the chipboard alphas and the shrink plastic that I made the buttons with......handy huh!
I always use the off cut 6x4's for tags or pockets.....one cheeky photo of a butt naked Ben is hidden discretely in a pocket!! Can you spot it!!

This is really gorgeous Ruth. I hate missing your posts but really love catching up when I have the chance. I get so much eye candy to browse upon.
Hope you are well, I think imsaw you the other day near ST James Church. You seemed in a rush and I was not 100% sure it was you. So didnt want to make a fool of myself by shouting your name....tee hee.
