Thought I would try something different other than a card.Always wanted to give book folding a try but thought it would be too complicated
Took me about two hours to fold the book and as the folding increases it gets a bit bulky so I had to use clips and clothes pegs to keep it all together but I got there in the end
After gluing it shut it was time to decorate
I glued the lace to top and bottom with the hot glue gun,glued in the braided ribbon for it to hang with,I made all the flowers using three different dies cut butterflies with a die, all on the cuttle bug glued them on with the glue gun, cut two birds on the cut n scan glued them together and sat them into the fold,glued with the glue gun added the ladybird and charm
Am going to put this into the crafters cafe challengeAges
Well it has been ages since I have been on my blog, a bit of a set back with my health and due to that we have sold our caravan and bought a bus so we can start to do the things we had planned for our retirement. I have a cupboard in the bus for some of my craft things enough so i don't go through craft withdrawals. We are off in a couple of hours and I have all my gear in the bus, so I am ready
