Saturday and brrrr that’s cold … looks like winter has started but on the bright side at least it’s dry.
Some more pics of Amber’s album and how it looks when opened.
On the left is the hard chip board cover and on the right is the start of the pages … eh, only one at the moment. Behind the tag and twine Amber can slip in a photo if she wants plus she could add a little photo on the other page … between the dresses.
There will be four pages by the time it is finished and each page is double sided … eight pages in all with lots of hidden pockets for tags and piccies. Also included will be envelopes and these are for the journalling/photos. Love this album because you can work on the pages before you add them.
When you have finished a page simply add by gluing to the spine, then make two holes with the cropadile before adding the ribbon. The picci below shows how it will look on the outside. When completely finished there will be four bows showing … might even be lace … not sure yet but that is the beauty of this album you can change how you want the spine to look when finished.
The above pic is the page when opened again she can add a photo behind the twine, also there is a pocket behind the corset. Come back tomorrow and you will see another page added, this time showing one of the envelopes.
Absolutely flippin gorgeous love, hope I get to see the real thing when you visit home.
Have a good weekend. Love to your both.

Just gorgeous Shirl…love seeing the pages! Amber is soooo going to love this when she gets it. Do you think you might be tempted to do a little tutorial on how to make these books with all the hidden bits??? I, for one, would love to have a go one day

STUNNING is the word my friend. I hope you have warned Amber she will have a battle on her hands when you bring it home.
I am in today, Sunday. Give me a ring when you can.
