Remember this "Smash-type" book my friend and I made on our creative getaway?
We had some papers and chipboard left over that Debbie wanted to somehow use.
I told her we can make another book (as I had more coils as well), but smaller. This one is 5 3/4x 5 1/2 before I added the binding.
This is such a cute little size and I am really happy with how it turned out.
I coloured up this adorable Gorjuss girl with my Copic markers. The wings I fussy cut out of some paper. I think it may have been Graphic 45 paper.
I made the frame around the girl out of pattern paper that I cut and mitered the corners.
Here are the Copic colours I used to colour up this pretty girl with. As you can see...no wings.
Here are a couple of the inside pages.
When making these albums, I would recommend using double sided, thicker papers as we did here.
Here are both mine and Debbie's books.
I love the title on Debbie's book. Perfect for this background we enjoyed all week while we were away :)
Onto My Day:
I spent most of my day cleaning house.
A friend came for a visit and another one called and chatted with me for a few hours. I guess my friends missed me while I was away and then helping Ashley with her house.
Talk about Ashley's house.
We have been there every night to bring some of her bigger items.
She has been here everyday to either pick stuff up or like tonight, for dinner ;)
I think we see each other more now then when she lived here, lol.
I hope you all have had a creative Monday :)
Tracy :)
