My mother in law is building a new house and asked me to come with her to pick out her colour samples, so I made her this book to keep all of her colours and swatches organized...the front is out of this cool vinyl paper that looks like leather...on the inside there are pocket pages after every room heading to keep bits and pieces and there are sticky dots in the envelope in the front so she can stick samples of fabric or carpet in the book on the pages she likes...
I am entering this in the following challenges:
The Crafty Purple Frog - anything but a card
Cooking it up with Katie - something old (the leather paper is from when I first started scrapping) - something new (the paper scraps and thickers) and technique (binding the book - haven't done that in ages and felt it was just time to start using that stuff up)
Crafts and me challenges - anything goes...I just discovered this blog and it looks interesting...so here goes!
The sisterhood of crafters - must be handmade - check!
