A great gift idea

Hi, it's Jen again. I made this cute little album for a friends wedding shower/hens night. The thought behind it was to have all of the guests there on the night write their pearls of wisdom about marriage or relationships down, to encourage the soon to be bride. It could be fun tips or serious tips :)

Marijke and I had a lovely lady come into the store and she let us play with some of her embossing folders and dies for the Cuttlebug and big shot die cutting machines.  You will be happy to know that after our "play," Marijke has now ordered a few different shapes, including the ones used for this project, for you to use in store at a small fee :)


1. This is the finished project, it is very plain and simple. One of the pages has been covered and stamped. There is also a cover made from clear plastic just to protect it a little more.

2. This little bird punch is soooo cute and added a little something to a plain page.


3. The finished result, all the pages were made from kraft card stock,  inked edges, a little bit of lace and ribbon and an album ring. And it is now a keepsake with advice from people the Bride cares about, so a lovely memory made.


This could also be used as a little mini album for photo's,  the possibilities are endless really, just let your imagination fly.
