WEDDING MINIBOOK

Morning lovely people, well I'm determined to make my way through the draft posts I've got lurking from last year, this one was for a wedding last April!  

I used an original Voodoo Vixen (AKA Annette) design on the book, it is one of my favourite tutorials that she has done and it looks so different depending on the papers! 

Hubby made the box for it to go in

I used soft pinks and ivory papers

with lots of space for words and photos

The book 'pulls' out so it looks like this

And here it is in the box

I'm hoping to crack on with more mini books this year, just need to find people to give them to, or maybe I should start trying to sell them?

I hope you are having a splendiferous Sunday

HAPPY TUESDAY (WELL IT WOULD BE IF I WASN'T BACK AT WORK!)

Ooh look at me little miss organised - a quick post (but with lots of pictures) of a gift I made my cousin who got married last summer!

It started out as a Papermania frame that I then disassembled (actually got hubby to disassemble - he didn't like the glint in my eye as I wielded a craft knife LOL) and turned into a book, thus creating the main gift, the colour scheme was predominantly creams and whites and ivories therefore I used lots of pastel papers and inks to really set the scheme off without being overpowering!  I then laced the book back together!

A few of the inside pages - too many to put them all on but you get the general gist

the back of the book

and then with this I also did a set of wooden boxes with little mini books inside so she could put wedding memorabilia in from the day - these are the outsides of the boxes

and these are the books inside I was pleased overall with them and sent the gift through the post apparently she was in tears when she received it because she loved it soooo much! 

So there you have it - I haven't abandoned my mini book making just not done as much as I usually do!
